Are you planning to buy an iPhone 15 Pro from another country as its cost is less than an Indian iPhone? You will ask a friend or family member in the US to get your iPhone. Well, here’s something you should know – the US version might only come with something called an eSIM.
iPhone 15 Price in India
In India, many people have been rushing to buy the new iPhone 15 models from stores or online. These phones are quite expensive. The starting price at INR 1,34,900 for the iPhone 15 Pro and even more for the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Some folks like to buy iPhones from other countries where they are cheaper. They might ask their friends or family to bring one from the US or the UAE, where iPhones cost less. There are some advantages to buying an iPhone from other countries like US or UAE.
The cost of the iPhone in these countries is less compared to the Indian iPhone. But, there are some problems as well if you buy an iPhone from other countries, especially the US.
US Version iPhone comes with eSim only
iPhones from the US don’t have a slot for a regular SIM card like we use in India. Instead, they use something called an eSIM. If you want to use a regular SIM card, then do not buy the US version iPhone. However, if you buy from places like Europe or the UAE, you’ll be okay as they come with a regular SIM card slot.
If you need two SIM cards in your phone
iPhones in Hong Kong have two SIM cards. That is pretty cool. Even the Indian version of the iPhone 15 Pro can only use one regular SIM card and one eSIM.
So, before you decide to get an iPhone 15 from another country, remember these things. It is better to purchase an iPhone from India in case you need to use one regular SIM card and one eSIM. Check another smartphone if the budget is going out.
