Iphone bought in America, will it work in Ireland?

My neighbour is going to New York next week. I would love to get an Iphone 5, but in Ireland they are far too expensive. If she got the iphone 5 in the apple store, would it work here with my pre pay sim? How much is the iphone 5?

I'm not sure. The radios that the iphone in america uses to connect to the cellular towers might be different then the ones in ireland. The iphone 5 costs between 500 and 1000 dollars depending on the model. So I would say no.

  • Should I buy an Iphone 5s from America and use it outside of America? An Iphone s where I live costs around $600.In America it costs around $199 plus a $70 year contract so it seems more reasonable to order it online from America. If I order it from America what would I need to do and what should I know before ordering an Iphone from America and using it in another country? Besides unlocking the phone, what else do I need to do?
  • Should an iPad bought in Canada work with Airpods from Ireland? I bought airpods off a seller in Ireland for 140 euros and the Airpods aren't connected to my iPad's bluetooth. I tried 2 other Bluetooth headphones and they both connected to my iPad. I messaged the seller and he said it's probably because my iPad was bought from Canada and so it's not compatible. Is this true? I got my iPad just a month ago in Alberta, Canada?
  • Iphone 4 verizon work in ireland if i unlock it? I bought an iphone 4 on ebay that's locked to Verizon. I didn't know at the time but now I'm wondering will it work on o2 if i unlock it? There's something about Verizon being a CDMA network and o2 being GSM and apparently they don't work together.
