Greetings! I have a bunch of BBY gift cards that I want to use to buy a new iPhone 15 Pro. Obviously that model cannot be purchased at the Apple Store anymore.
Does BBY sell iPhones outright without a contract or upgrade? I just want to walk in there, pay my $899 plus tax and be on my way. I am aware of flex policy and it is a non issue to me. I just want the phone.
Thanks.
Hello, my mother in law is visiting from the Caribbean. She has decided she would like to upgrade phones while state side. Looks like it’s gonna be a IPhone 14 or 14 pro. I see that best buy has some deals for unlocked. Wanted to touch base here and verify if those are truly fully unlocked. I don’t want to send her back home only to find out it wasn’t internationally unlocked
I'd like to buy my mother, a T-Mobile customer, an iPhone 15 Plus. I've got a hefty amount of Best Buy gift cards that I was planning to use to pay for the phone, and have it activated on T-Mobile for her in-store.
Much to my dismay, Best Buy and T-Mobile cancelled their partnership the same day the new iPhones were announced. Now, the phone only appears to be sold through AT&T or Verizon activations.
I read online that non-Apple retailers sell Flex Lock iPhones, which are unlocked phones that end up locking to the first carrier the phone is activated on.
I used to be an employee a few years back, and if I remember correctly, scanning any phone's UPC in the point-of-sale system would give you multiple checkbox options, like 'UNACTIVATED UL' or carrier-specific options. If that's true, and the 'Flex Lock' thing is accurate, would it be possible to have an employee sell me an iPhone as an unlocked phone and then I could just personally activate said phone on T-Mobile?
I'm not entirely sure if the phones specifcally come boxed up for AT&T/Verizon or if they're all the same but just end up getting activated on those specific carriers.
Don't want to get anyone in trouble [if this isn't allowed], hence why I'm asking here instead of going in-store immediately. I'd really prefer to buy the phone at Best Buy due to the gift cards, but might ultimately end up just having to buy through Apple themselves. I reckon I'd end up using the gift cards on something eventually, but I've got nothing else in mind so I figured this would be an appropriate time to exhaust them.
Thanks for your time :)
