    Other XS XS MAX (CDMA) VS (GSM) ??

    In reading Apples Website it appears to me that there are two different models for each phone although they use the same model number one labeled (CDMA) and one (GSM). I called apple and the customer service rep was not sure of the difference. This leads me to believe that the phones purchased...

    Other Pre-ordering XS for store pickup 1 week (or more) after launch (US)

    Hi all, First post on here but a long time iPhone/Apple customer! I'm not someone who upgrades my iPhones yearly - I'm still rocking an iPhone 6, which has served me well the last few years! I live in the UK, but coincidentally I'm off on holiday to the US for a couple of weeks (visiting NYC...

    Do iPhones, 7 & up work on all carriers?

    I previously had a 6s & it worked on any carrier. I read this somewhere: “iPhone models 5c, 5s, 6, 6+, 6s, 6s+ & SE were designed to support all major network bands and are compatible with all major network providers.

    GSM only iPhone 7 will not support LTE networks in China/Hong Kong.

    From looking at the iPhone 7 LTE band support, only the CDMA versions (Verizon and Sprint) of the iPhone 7 will have LTE support in China and Hong Kong. The CDMA version adds TD-SCDMA 1900 and 2000 bands. Only more reason to pick up the CDMA model over the GSM only one.

    No AWS-3 (Band 66) support in the iPhone 7

    It seems that there is no AWS-3 Band 66 support in the new iPhone 7. Any ideas as to why Apple may have left this out? Both AT&T have a lot of AWS-3 spectrum with AT&T having a nationwide contiguous footprint. Sources: Fortune Apple: Model A1660* Model A1661* FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
