										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>  Contact your carrier </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Only your carrier can unlock your iPhone. Contact your carrier and request an unlock. Your account might need to meet requirements for unlocking. After you submit the request, it might take a few days to complete. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   After your carrier confirms that they unlocked your iPhone, follow the steps below.  </li>
</ol>
<p>Likewise, Can I use a locked phone in another country?</p>
<p>In order to use temporary SIM cards abroad, you&#8217;ll need <b>to &#8220;unlock</b>&#8221; your phone first. &#8230; Once a phone is &#8220;unlocked,&#8221; it no longer needs to be used with a specific carrier. That means when you travel abroad, you can buy a SIM card from any company, pop it in, and your phone will work.</p>
<p>Also, How can I tell if my iPhone is international?</p>
<p>Check iPhone when inserting SIM:</p>
<p> Bring SIM of any carrier to check the device on the spot. If <b>the device recognizes SIM, catches good radio and calls as usual</b>, this is an international iPhone version.</p>
<p>Moreover, Can I unlock my iPhone myself?</p>
<p><b>It&#8217;s completely legal to unlock your iPhone</b> if you&#8217;ve finished paying for your contract or you purchased it outright unsubsidised. However, if you&#8217;re still in the process of paying for your contract you don&#8217;t fully own the iPhone yet, so you&#8217;re best to check with your carrier before unlocking it.</p>
<p>Is my iPhone region locked?</p>
<p>Apple sells particular versions of its hardware in different countries and regions around the world. For iPhones, it has to do with the cellular frequencies in use by carriers. &#8230; <b>Apple doesn&#8217;t lock devices by country or region to each other</b>.</p>
<h2><strong>Can I use an iPhone bought from another country?</strong></h2>
<p>And yes, <b>the warranty is only valid in the country you buy the iPhone in</b>. In your case, the US. If you have any issues with the phone, you&#8217;ll need to fly into the US in order to have your phone serviced. Apple might still service your phone in the UAE, but you&#8217;ll need to pay for an out-of-warranty replacement.</p>
<h2><strong>Which model iPhone is the best?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  The best iPhones you can buy right now </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   iPhone 12 Pro Max. The best iPhone overall. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   iPhone 12 Pro. Apple&#8217;s less expensive Pro model. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   iPhone 12 mini. The best compact iPhone. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   iPhone 12. Top iPhone features with a bigger screen. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   iPhone 11. The best iPhone bargain. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   iPhone SE 2020. The least expensive new iPhone. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   iPhone XR.  </li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>What does international version mean in iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>International means that <b>it can be on any carrier and unlocked means</b> that when you get an iPhone, and it says hi and every other language you don&#8217;t see it and you can do what ever you want. Jena. · September 15, 2019. 1 of 21 found this helpful.</p>
<h2><strong>Which country is iPhone cheapest?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  Countries Where You Can Buy iPhones at the Cheapest Prices </b> </p>
<ul>
<li>   United States of America (USA) The tax system in the USA is sort of complicated. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Japan. The iPhone 12 Series is priced the least in Japan. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Canada. The iPhone 12 Series prices are very similar to their USA counterparts. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Dubai. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Australia.  </li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>Does factory reset remove unlock iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>Performing a factory reset on a phone returns it to its out-of-box state. If a third party reset the phone, <b>the codes that changed the phone from locked to unlocked are removed</b>. &#8230; If you purchased the phone as unlocked before you went through setup, then the unlock should remain even if you reset the phone.</p>
<h2><strong>How much does it cost to get your iPhone unlocked?</strong></h2>
<p>Here is the rundown on the cost to unlock a phone, approximately, with third-party services for various brands: Apple iPhone – <b>$20-$60, up to $80 for some carriers</b>, $120-$220 for Premium, high-guarantee unlocks.</p>
<h2><strong>Why are iPhones region locked?</strong></h2>
<p>What is regional lock? Region Lock <b>ensures that you can only use a smartphone in a country the device is made for</b>. In this way, Samsung prevents their devices from being bought up in one market and sold again in another market.</p>
<h2><strong>Is Apple care region locked?</strong></h2>
<p>The warranty and AppleCare / AppleCare+ are <b>only valid in the country where the phone was originally sold</b>. If you purchased it in the US, you can only buy additional coverage from Apple in the US and that coverage will only be valid in the US. The warranty and AppleCare/AppleCare+ on the iPhone are not international.</p>
<h2><strong>Are all European iPhones unlocked?</strong></h2>
<p><b>Only your carrier can unlock your iPhone</b>. All the major carriers will unlock since the new 2015 FCC rules on unlocking, but carriers have their own requirements for unlocking. Contact your carrier and request an unlock. You might need to meet requirements to qualify for unlocking.</p>
<h2><strong>Is iPhone warranty valid worldwide?</strong></h2>
<p>The international warranty applies to factory unlocked iPhones and not carrier-locked models. &#8230; This means that iPhones bought from outside the country will be applicable for a <b>one-year warranty</b> in India. It is important to note that the warranty will only apply for factory unlocked iPhones and not carrier-locked models.</p>
<h2><strong>What phone is better than an iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>If neither size nor price is a concern, the best Android phone you can buy right now is the <b>Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra</b>. With a big 6.8-inch screen and the best cameras you can get on an Android phone, it&#8217;s the no-compromise pick. In some cases, its cameras can even best the iPhone 12 Pro Max.</p>
<h2><strong>What iPhone has the best battery life?</strong></h2>
<p>According to Apple, the iPhones with the best battery life are the <b>iPhone 11 Pro Max and iPhone 12 Pro Max</b>. Both phones are designed to last for 12 hours of video streaming, 20 hours of video playback, and 80 hours of audio playback. In the real world, we&#8217;d expect the iPhone 11 Pro Max to last longer.</p>
<h2><strong>Are iPhones worth it?</strong></h2>
<p>It is fast, it looks great, it has got a good screen, a good set of cameras, fine battery life and good software. Overall, clean, cohesive and fast experience. It is worth Rs 79,900. Point 2: The iPhone 12 design is a good balance of size and usability.</p>
<h2><strong>How can I get an international version of my iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p><b>There is NO International Version of iPhone</b>. iPhones are sold by region. If you purchase an iPhone in Saudi Arabia you cannot add AppleCare+ to the phone in India. You can buy AppleCare+ in Saudi Arabia, but it will NOT be valid in India.</p>
<h2><strong>What&#8217;s the difference between international version and US?</strong></h2>
<p>Only the international versions are carrier unlocked. The other difference is that the <b>USA version has the Snapdragon processor</b> while most other countries (including this one) have the Samsung Exynos processor. &#8230; Most of the phones bought in the US are locked to particular carrier.</p>
<h2><strong>What is the difference between fake iPhone and real iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>First and foremost, a clear difference between real and fake iPhones <b>lies in the box</b>. Both boxes&#8217; build and quality can be very similar, but there will always be a slight difference in the box sizes. The real package is compact, whereas the fake one will tend to be larger.</p>
<h2><strong>Where is the cheapest country to buy an iPhone 12?</strong></h2>
<p><b>USA, Hong Kong, Japan and UAE (Dubai)</b> are the cheapest places to buy the iPhone 12 series, while India is one of the most expensive places.</p>
<h2><strong>Where is iPhone 12 cheapest in world?</strong></h2>
<p>159,999. Moreover, as the US features the largest customer base of Apple and occupies the largest chunk of worldwide sales, Apple keeps the prices quite competitive here. The iPhone 12 Series is priced the least in <b>Japan</b> with the iPhone 12 Mini (64GB) costs 74800 Yen, which roughly converts to Rs.</p>
<h2><strong>In which country iPhone is most expensive?</strong></h2>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>  Even if you decide to get a local SIM card, these tips will help you out by saving data abroad. </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Turn off roaming. This stops cellular data use so you won&#8217;t be paying extra for a plan you don&#8217;t have. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Stop apps from sucking your data in the background. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Turn off automatic downloads. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Track cellular usage.  </li>
</ol>
<p>Likewise, How do I put an international SIM card in my iPhone?</p>
<p>As long as you have an unlocked phone with a SIM card slot, you should be able to purchase a SIM overseas (with data, calling, texting, whatever you need), or pre-order a SIM card. Then <b>slip it into your phone</b>, and have a fully-functioning local phone.</p>
<p>Also, Do you get charged for using your phone abroad?</p>
<p>Since 31 December 2020, <b>the EU rules on roaming charges no longer apply in the UK</b>. This means that, like other destinations, the amount your mobile provider can charge you for using your mobile phone in EU countries, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein is no longer capped.</p>
<p>Moreover, What is the cheapest way to communicate internationally?</p>
<p><b>  Here&#8217;s how. </b> </p>
<ul>
<li>   Use your mobile phone. This is the easiest option. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Get app-happy. If you have a smartphone or tablet, you can make calls at extremely low costs by downloading a Voice-Over-Internet Protocol (VOIP) app. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Switch your SIM card. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Get a temp. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Use a hotspot. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   For determined luddites only.  </li>
</ul>
<p>Should I turn off cellular data when Travelling internationally?</p>
<p>If you can&#8217;t get an international plan for your destination, the safest option is to turn off data roaming entirely. In iOS, the toggle switch is under Settings &gt; Cellular. In Android, it&#8217;s <b>under Settings &gt; Wireless &amp; Networks &gt; Data Usage</b>.</p>
<h2><strong>How do I know if my iPhone will work internationally?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  If you don&#8217;t know if your phone is locked you can do any of the following to find out: </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Ask your operator. Call your current operator&#8217;s customer support and explain you want to use your phone overseas. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Try another SIM. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Check your IMEI.  </li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>Are iPhone to iPhone calls free internationally?</strong></h2>
<p>FaceTime Audio Calls allows you <b>to make Free International Phone Calls from iPhone</b>. FaceTime calls support both Audio and Video calls for free from any iPhone, iPad, and even from Mac. &#8230; You are free to call unlimited calls using this feature anywhere in the world.</p>
<h2><strong>Can I use a locked phone in another country?</strong></h2>
<p>In order to use temporary SIM cards abroad, you&#8217;ll need <b>to &#8220;unlock</b>&#8221; your phone first. &#8230; Once a phone is &#8220;unlocked,&#8221; it no longer needs to be used with a specific carrier. That means when you travel abroad, you can buy a SIM card from any company, pop it in, and your phone will work.</p>
<h2><strong>Which service provider is best for international roaming?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  Reliance Jio Vs Vodafone India Vs Bharti Airtel: Prepaid International Roaming Packs Compared </b> </p>
<ul>
<li>   ₹ 646 pack:Airtel offers 100 minutes of outgoing calls to India, 100 SMSes and 500 MB of data.  </li>
<li>   Rs 3,997 pack: Airtel offers 500 minutes of outgoing calls to India, 100 SMSes and 5 GB of data.  </li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>What is the cheapest international roaming?</strong></h2>
<p>Vodafone-Idea</p>
<p> The Rs 1496 plan offers 300 mins incoming and outgoing calls, Rs 15 per SMS, 1GB mobile data and it is applicable in 42 countries. The cheapest plan in this segment costs Rs 295 for 28 days and <b>Rs 10 per MB</b>.</p>
<h2><strong>Should my data roaming be on or off?</strong></h2>
<p>This is important: Roaming charges can be exorbitantly high when you&#8217;re traveling abroad. Verizon, AT&amp;T, and Sprint charge a lot of money if you use their data when you&#8217;re overseas. &#8230; If you really want to be safe, I recommend <b>turning off Cellular Data entirely when you&#8217;re</b> traveling abroad.</p>
<h2><strong>How can I text internationally for free?</strong></h2>
<p>Download an international SMS app through your app store.</p>
<p> In the App, Google Play, or Windows Stores, find an international texting app for free. <b>Search &#8220;international call/text&#8221;</b> to find apps. Some of the most popular include: WhatsApp.</p>

<li>   Send text messages. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Download a data monitor. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Get a Prepaid SIM Card.  </li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>Can I still receive texts with Cellular data off?</strong></h2>
<p>(On iPhone, tap the “Settings” icon, tap “Cellular,” then turn off “Cellular Data.” On Android, <b>tap the “Settings” icon, tap “Network &amp; internet,” tap “Mobile network” and turn off “Mobile data</b>.”) After turning off mobile data, you&#8217;ll still be able to make and receive phone calls and get text messages.</p>
<h2><strong>How do you know if your phone will work internationally?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  Be sure you have an Unlocked GSM phone </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Ask your operator. Call your current operator&#8217;s customer support and explain you want to use your phone overseas. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Try another SIM. Place a SIM from another operator in your phone and see if the phone recognizes the other operator&#8217;s network.  </li>
<li>   Check your IMEI.  </li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>Do iPhones work in all countries?</strong></h2>
<p>For iPhones, it has to do with the cellular frequencies in use by carriers. &#8230; As long as an iPhone is unlocked, <b>it can be used with any carrier</b>. Swap in a SIM for another network, and you can be up and running—a common tactic for travelers who want to get local cellular pricing when they travel among different countries.</p>
<h2><strong>Can I use my iPhone in other countries?</strong></h2>
<p>The answer is yes, <b>you can use your other half—your iPhone—abroad</b>. But here are a few tips for making sure you have money for something other than international roaming. &#8230; You can turn off data roaming under the Settings app and travel the old-fashioned way: unplugged.</p>
<h2><strong>How will my phone work in another country?</strong></h2>
<p>Yes, you can use an <b>unlocked GSM handset</b> when you&#8217;re traveling abroad. Simply put in a SIM card from a local carrier to make inexpensive local phone calls while you&#8217;re in-country as well as cheap texting to other cell phones also in the same country in which you&#8217;re traveling.</p>
<h2><strong>Do iPhone To iPhone calls cost?</strong></h2>
<p>There are also apps like Skype that you can use over wifi as well, but to truly answer your question, <b>calls between iPhones are not free</b>. FaceTime is free if each user is using WiFi. If you&#8217;re on the road without WiFi then it is not free and uses data.</p>
<h2><strong>Is iPhone To iPhone call free?</strong></h2>
<p><b>No, cellular calls between iPhones are not free</b>. If you use FaceTime between two iPhones, you do no use your cellular minutes, however, unless you are on a WiFi network, you will be using your cellular data.</p>
<h2><strong>Do international calls cost money on iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>You can dial an international number on your iPhone in a few easy steps. To dial international on an iPhone, you&#8217;ll need to know the country code for the number you&#8217;re trying to dial. &#8230; Calling international numbers on your iPhone <b>will likely incur extra charges</b> — check with your mobile provider for rates.</p>

<p>(On iPhone, tap the “Settings” icon, tap “Cellular,” then turn off “Cellular Data.” On Android, <b>tap the “Settings” icon, tap “Network &amp; internet,” tap “Mobile network” and turn off “Mobile data</b>.”) After turning off mobile data, you&#8217;ll still be able to make and receive phone calls and get text messages.</p>
<p>Also, How can I use my phone without international charges?</p>
<p><b>  Even if you decide to get a local SIM card, these tips will help you out by saving data abroad. </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Turn off roaming. This stops cellular data use so you won&#8217;t be paying extra for a plan you don&#8217;t have. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Stop apps from sucking your data in the background. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Turn off automatic downloads. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Track cellular usage.  </li>
</ol>
<p>Moreover, What happens when someone calls you on airplane mode?</p>
<p>When your phone is in Airplane mode, <b>callers will hear the phone ringing</b>, although it&#8217;s not ringing on your end because your phone is not active. If the caller hangs up without leaving a voice mail, no notification will be generated as it would if your phone were in an active state.</p>
<p>Is airplane mode the same as turning off cellular data?</p>
<p>What is airplane mode? &#8230; Like turning off mobile data, <b>you won&#8217;t be able to use any cellular data</b> while airplane mode is enabled.</p>
<h2><strong>What happens if I turn cellular data off on iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>When cellular data is off, <b>apps will only use Wi-Fi for data</b>.</p>
<h2><strong>What happens when I turn cellular data off on my iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>With cellular data turned off, <b>you can measure Wi-Fi speed and connectivity accurately, knowing for certain that the device is getting all of its data from Wi-Fi and not a cellular network</b>.</p>
<h2><strong>How can I text on my iPhone without using data?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  Re: Cannot text without a data plan (iPhone)? </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Open the Settings app and go to “Message”  </li>
<li>   Locate the switch for “Send as SMS” and turn this to the ON position (if send as SMS is already on, try turning it off for about 10 seconds and then turn it back on again)  </li>
<li>   Return to Messages and try sending the text message again.  </li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>Do you get charged for using your phone abroad?</strong></h2>
<p>Since 31 December 2020, <b>the EU rules on roaming charges no longer apply in the UK</b>. This means that, like other destinations, the amount your mobile provider can charge you for using your mobile phone in EU countries, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein is no longer capped.</p>
<h2><strong>What is the cheapest way to communicate internationally?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  Here&#8217;s how. </b> </p>
<ul>
<li>   Use your mobile phone. This is the easiest option. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Get app-happy. If you have a smartphone or tablet, you can make calls at extremely low costs by downloading a Voice-Over-Internet Protocol (VOIP) app. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Switch your SIM card. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Get a temp. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Use a hotspot. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   For determined luddites only.  </li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>Should I turn off cellular data when Travelling internationally?</strong></h2>
<p>If you can&#8217;t get an international plan for your destination, the safest option is to turn off data roaming entirely. In iOS, the toggle switch is under Settings &gt; Cellular. In Android, it&#8217;s <b>under Settings &gt; Wireless &amp; Networks &gt; Data Usage</b>.</p>
<h2><strong>What happens if you don&#8217;t put your phone on airplane mode?</strong></h2>
<p>What Happens If You Forget to Turn On Airplane Mode? &#8230; Not only <b>will the signals cause interference with airplane navigation</b>, but the effort it takes your cell phone to keep scanning and tower hopping at fly-by speeds will also drain your battery and still not maintain a constant signal.</p>
<h2><strong>Should airplane mode be on or off on iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>One way to help slow down battery drain is to turn <b>Airplane Mode on</b>. When your iPhone is on, even with the screen off, it is constantly searching for and monitoring data connections. Turning those connections off through Airplane Mode will save battery, allowing you to make calls when you absolutely need to.</p>
<h2><strong>Can you text someone on airplane mode?</strong></h2>
<p>Sending an SMS (Short Message Service) text requires the cellular connection that is disabled when your device has airplane mode enabled. This means that <b>you can&#8217;t send SMS texts while flying</b>.</p>
<h2><strong>Will I get charged if my phone is on airplane mode?</strong></h2>
<p>When your phone is in airplane mode, it&#8217;s not constantly trying to find a wireless network or signal. So your battery will last a lot longer. &#8230; Bonus: when you&#8217;re using airplane mode <b>your phone will actually charge more quickly</b> (same reasons as mentioned above: it&#8217;s not trying to do so much, so can focus on charging).</p>
<h2><strong>How do you avoid cell charges when traveling?</strong></h2>
<p>Shut Down Non-Vital Apps</p>
<p> The fewer apps you leave turned on, the less risk of racking up hundreds of dollars in roaming charges. On an iPhone, in &#8220;Settings,&#8221; go to &#8220;Cellular,&#8221; then toggle off any individual apps you will not need on your trip. On an Android phone, <b>go to &#8220;Apps,&#8221; pick your app and tap &#8220;Disable</b>.&#8221;</p>
<h2><strong>When should I use airplane mode on my iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>One way to <b>help slow down battery drain</b> is to turn Airplane Mode on. When your iPhone is on, even with the screen off, it is constantly searching for and monitoring data connections. Turning those connections off through Airplane Mode will save battery, allowing you to make calls when you absolutely need to.</p>
<h2><strong>How do I stop my phone from using so much data?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  Just follow these steps: </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Open up Settings on your device.  </li>
<li>   Locate and tap Data usage.  </li>
<li>   Locate the app you want to prevent using your data in the background.  </li>
<li>   Scroll to the bottom of the app listing.  </li>
<li>   Tap to enable Restrict background data (Figure B)  </li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>Should you keep cellular data on?</strong></h2>
<p>For almost everyone, it&#8217;s a <b>good idea to leave Cellular Data on</b>. &#8230; When Cellular Data is off and you&#8217;re not connected to Wi-Fi, you can only use your iPhone to make phone calls and send text messages (but not iMessages, which use data). It&#8217;s amazing that almost everything we do on our iPhones uses data!</p>
<h2><strong>How do I stop my iPhone from using so much data?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  The only way to completely stop data usage is by turning off Data Roaming or keeping your phone on Flight Mode. </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Disable Automatic App Updates on Cellular Data. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Disable Background App Refresh. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Disable iCloud on Cellular Data. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Disable Wi-Fi Assist. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Disable Cellular Data for Unused Apps. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   System Services.  </li>
</ol>
<h2><strong>Can I still receive texts with cellular data off iPhone?</strong></h2>
<p>So to answer your question, <b>yes you can send and receive texts on your iPhone</b> with your cellular data and wifi off but you cannot send and receive iMessages (the blue ones), these ones need your data access.</p>
<h2><strong>Can I still use my iPhone without service?</strong></h2>
<p><b>An iPhone can work fine without a carrier</b>, but you won&#8217;t be able to make Cellular calls without an active service plan from a carrier. The service plan is what lets you among other things make cellular voice calls.</p>
<h2><strong>How can I text without using data?</strong></h2>
<p><b>  Android &#8211; MMS Without Data </b> </p>
<ol>
<li>   Push the menu button and pick Settings.  </li>
<li>   Pick &#8220;Wireless &amp; networks&#8221;  </li>
<li>   Pick &#8220;Mobile networks&#8221;  </li>
<li>   Make sure &#8220;Data enabled&#8221; is checked (MMS won&#8217;t work either if you disable it here!)  </li>
<li>   Go to &#8220;Access Point Names&#8221; &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Scroll down to the &#8220;APN type&#8221; setting. &#8230;  </li>
<li>   Change its value to be only &#8220;mms&#8221;.  </li>
