Hello everyone,
I wish to buy an iphone 14 pro from US and use it here in India however they are out of stock (at least the any carrier versions). So I have an option to buy one tied to Verizon. Can anyone let me know if this can work in India? Has anyone tried this before? Like can it be unlocked in any way?
Thanks and Regards
It is always best to buy the phone in the country where it will be used. this way you can be sure it will work with local providers. Also, the warranty is only good in the country of purchase and you would need to make a trip to the uS to get it repaired if it ever needs repair.

It will not work in India until it has been used for a period of time in the US. You will have to create an account with Verizon in the US. AFTER you create the account and use it you can request that Verizon unlock the phone.
Where did you go that said that the unlocked version was out of stock? I doubt that it was Apple, which is the only source of unlocked iPhones. No other merchant in the US sells unlocked phones.
Yes that is true but it cost a lot to buy here and my friend is about to return from US so he is going to buy one for me. He said unlocked ones are out of stock so asked me to check if Verizon ones can work or be unlocked.
Oh so Verizon themselves have to unlock it.
Well it shows on their website. It's not available for pick up. Delivery is 5 weeks minimum i.e 29-30th Dec in east coast at least
There is a world-wide shortage of the iPhone 16 due to widespread COVID infections in Shenzhen, where they are made.
