Reply to comment by UnknownTechGuy in Time for new iPhone (India): eSIM Question by drDVMHomie

Oh, very helpful. Dubai, as in Apple.com.du or similar? Fast delivery, probably, eh?

I'm also wanting dual sim capabilities, as some places in India Jio is 2nd best, and maybe Vi or Airtel is better bet. Which iPhone are you in right now?

Nope.. Dubai as in the market shops, Apple has high prices compared to what reseller have.

As far as i am aware only airtel n jio support esim, VI n bsnl don't.

All iPhone are dual sim, US models of the 14 series all dual esim, global is 1 physical and 1esim, china/Hong Kong is dual physical.

I'm using the 14Pro Max. Have 1 physical sim and 1 esim in use.

Hey, could suggest a good place to buy iPhone from Dubai with face time?

All iPhone, irrespective of where you buy it from have FaceTime ( even UAE) FaceTime is not visible as an app or in settings for people who set the region of their device as UAE in the settings app. Change it to any other country and boom.. It appears.

how much is it in Dubai? I ordered one online, US and it came to around 86k for the 14pro +4k for international transaction charge so essentially 90k

128gb comes around 104k INR while 256 will set you back around 112K

Oh, right, besides, shipping to India from anywhere outside India would mean customs. Don't plan on traveling to Dubai, nor do I have friends who do, so it's either Apple US via a friend visiting, or Apple.in.

Unless there are resellers in India worth pursuing… know of any doing better than Apple direct here?
