Cheap iPhone 4: Buy Official Apple Factory Unlocked iPhone 4 For the Best Price

Factory Unlocked iPhone4

This is an update to my previous post on how to Buy Factory Unlocked IPhone 3GS For Cheap. With the release of iPhone 4, a lot of people will now be ditching or trying to sell off their iPhone 3GS in favor of the newer and faster iPhone 4G. The iPhone 4 has a significant number of notable hardware improvements over the 3GS. I have listed some of them below.

• FaceTime lets you do free video chat over wifi to the person you are calling.
• Front facing camera
• 512Mb Ram for faster multitasking
• Retina Display which gives you twice the resolution of the 3GS
• HD Video Recording and Editing.
• 5 Megapixel Camera with LED Flash
• Better battery Life

Right now the iPhone 4 are selling in the US, Canada, UK, France and Japan. In each of these countries you can either buy it from the Apple store or from the Service Provider. The iPhone 4 will be locked into the service provider and usually there is no way to unlock the iPhone unless you hack it or jailbreak it. Hacking an iPhone not only voids your Apple warranty but also makes it difficult for you to update your iPhone firmware everytime Apple releases an update.

There are some countries were it is against the law to lock the phone to a mobile service provider, these are the countries in which Apple sells the phone which are factory unlocked by default. You can insert any mobile carrier services SIM and make calls.

Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, NewZealand are the few countries where due to government policies and restrictions, Apple is forced to sell factory unlocked iPhone 4. You can freely use these official factory unlocked iPhone 4 devices with any cellular service provider anywhere in the world, while maintaining your Apple warranty.

Unlike iPhone 3GS even countries like UK, Canada and France are selling Unlocked iPhones but for a much higher rate.
