Buying one through Apple online at the moment, but it’s roughly $1300 with taxes. So I have myself a little nervous at the cost. Thanks in advance for answering. 👍

    I remember when I bought my iPhone 3GS back in the day.

    The only option was to buy it carrier locked on a one or two year plan in my country. Of course it was exclusive to a carrier that wasn’t my choice of carrier.

    I signed up, put it in a drawer and waited for the imminent jailbreak and unlocked modem firmware. It dropped two weeks later. After that one year of payments they unlocked it through official means.
