Hello .my friend said . Warranty iPhone is not start if im not put SIM card on the phone .. what is that true ??
 
If the purchase is made in store, it is the purchase date, which is what I answered to. If it is shipped to you, it should be the activation date.

Since you didn't provide any details, I was speaking from a U.S. perspective. Look up the details for your country (if not the U.S.).
Yes is true.. but on my country iPhone sell no always actived from date of purchase .
Maybe i should test activating without SIM card . I just read in some forum . They say iPhone warranty not actived of not put SIM on the phone . Sorry for bad English
 
I have always purchased online.
The warranty starts from the purchase date.
I then call them and they usually change it to the actual delivery date.
I don't think its from activation date - otherwise you could keep the phone for 6 months without using it, then expect a year warranty to begin.........
