I’m planning on getting the 15 pro max on instalments. My carrier is AT&T, however, because I travel back home a lot, I was wondering if the phone would be locked to AT&T and if I can use an international eSim with that phone while I’m travelling?
- im buying through the Apple website (Apple iphone payments) not AT&T
I asked apple support and they said two different things, or maybe I just didn’t understand them:
When you purchase an iPhone at Apple, you’ll receive an unlocked model that you can use with any carrier. The only exception is if you purchase an iPhone through AT&T Installment Plans — you will receive a locked model.
Your device will be locked if you financed it with Carrier Financing (paying for your new iPhone with your Carrier plan) with AT&T Installment Plans.
