Answer: If the money is written off then there will be no refusal

Question: Tell me in an appstore it is better to order from an e-mail or as a guest?
Answer: Make out as a guest, there are no problems, the only difference is that from under the guest you will not be able to cancel the order directly on the site, you will have to knock on the caliper. You can from under another account, just enter your full name and address of the intermediary, it is important that the name on the invoice is the same as in the address of the intermediary to which you send.

Question: When ordering from apple.com, choose Sim-free or T-mobile?
Answer: The only difference is in the clip for the SIM card tray, in the mobile there is none, in sim free it is. Usually, at the start of sales of sim free there is no, everyone buys the T-Mobile, this year both the Sim Free and the T-Mobile appeared at the same time, order the sim free.

Answer: There are no problems and limitations, warranty all over the world, including Russia. (We read)

Question: Is there legal unlock?
Answer: Factory Unlocked is a legal unlock, the man himself untied it from the operator. Phones sold on ebay are different and they have different unlock. If you buy the operator you will need to deal with unlock, or through the website operator or people for money. For example you are a US resident and operator bought the phone, net phone (that is, not to steal and no debt), you come to the office of T-Mobile or Verizon, and they loose it, if you are not a resident of the United States you will need to seek outlets on the operator or people in the United States (where it is cheaper than in Russia) that otvyazhut it, and also otvyazhut in the case when the machine clean.

Question: When ordering, you need to pay customs?
Answer: If the amount does not exceed 1000 euros with delivery, then you do not need to pay anything.

Question: What is the restored smartphone?
Be careful!
RESTOREDPhones come in three types: the restored factory, restored by the seller, the restored "official" service. They are not always marked with the model number that begins with В«FВ», but often the quality is just horrible. Each of these kind of new smartphones you can buy in large stores, such as shares and sales.

A separate topic about the purchase on the websites AliExpress and the like.
Buying on such sites is a lottery. No advice before buying will help - all at your own peril and risk.
The main thing:
- you can buy a phone in absolutely any condition from working to completely faulty;
- there are no separate and proven vendors - you can buy a worker, a problem, and a completely non-working device from anyone;
- devices are restored outside of official services - huge chances to get a phone with a curved body, slots, as well as with an inactive fingerprint scanner;
- the box will be sealed and packaged handicraft, the phone will have a fake, but the new case will give the illusion of novelty;
- there may be any traces of vital activity of past owners inside - no matter how ridiculous it may be, but there may be someone else's sweat, drool and dust, because no one makes serious cleansing while preparing the device for sale;
- accessories in the kit (headphones, charger) will be fake, and a fake charger in most cases quickly disables the device.
If you choose the seller's reviews, you know - the majority of reviews written in joyful euphoria immediately after receiving the device, when nothing more is not really considered not tested and tried.
Also recall that the responses of buyers almost do not mean anything. One person can buy an operating device and write about this laudatory review, and another gets in or off the offending device. This lottery.

Question: What to check when buying?
Appearance, matching IMEI on the box and on the device itself
Check by serial number information about the activation.https://checkcoverage.apple.com/
Lack of slots for 2x SIM cards, TVs, flash drives, etc.
The presence of iOS, not Android or JavaOS.

Although it is possible to visually forge anything of the above, including imei and serial, but the most important and effective way to make sure that the phone works is to completely reset all settings:
Settings - General - Reset - Erase content and settings
After that, the phone with the inserted sim card must be activated (this is important) and fully boot up to the desktop with icons. If the phone has a working sim cardstops at the activation stepthen you have a “brick” in your hands, which you can safely return to the seller.

On the off site as I understand it? Delivery by intermediary? How much will it cost? I also read that the cards of the Russian Federation sometimes do not pass, if you pay in rubles. And if the card is USD? And what about the guarantee ...

If someone travels on business or travels to the UK and then returns to his home outside the EU, then you can save and apply for tax free and return VAT at 20% to the airport, for a total of ~ $ 500 for the 64 GB version. It seems like this can be done with goods from stores (which support the Global Tax Free system) throughout the EU, but on the websiteAppleabout tax free only about uk found

Denpech @ 03/23/2016, 19:31*
A month after the start of sales, checked.

Then it makes sense to wait a bit and make a choice. Still all sorts of retails in the Russian Federation will give in installments most likely with 10-15% discount. And if you close right away, the prices will be the same as in CU, but not a fact ... with the iPhone 6 / 6S it was like that.

If you are not in the US and do not want a phone blocked by an operator, then Sim Free.



Rep: (1)
I left a pre-order on the SG 64GB sim-fri, although it says that the sim-fri is a1662 model, today I will support hammering to send a1723)))

The point is to order a T-mobile in the USA if the T-mobile works on the same frequencies as all the others. For us, the option is only Sprint, but you cannot buy it without a contract.

Yes, you're right, something I did not pay attention to the Global Blue Service fee. In any case, if you take in the UK 64 GB version for 439 pounds, in total, you can return 50 pounds already with deduction of interest ...

I bought 6s T-mobile under my account. I paid with a savings bank card from a ruble account. Spiked on a parcel.
It turned out at the first attempt.
Details here:
Purchase 6s


But with the models / LTE no luck - it can be stated.
1662 - American; 1723 - European
In the 7th band LTU amerikos (like the most popular in the Russian Federation, I can be wrong), alas, they did not deliver (.
Both versions of Sim-Free and T-Mobile are 1662. And the others are locked, and they won't be sold to us without a contract.

You do not order from America in 1723, because The only such model sold with the contract SPRINT and blocked on him.

Order on your local Apple website or buy from official resellers or service providers, then you will be 1723.

By LTE models, operators and frequencies:

but whether it will be locked is not clear ...

Necessarily will. ATiT, Sprint, Verizon - always locked up. Only T-Mobile is unlocked.
