iPhone 5

[Ras Walleye]

Anyone have any experience with buying a digicel sim and using an iPhone 5 in Jamaica?
Verizon's iPhone 5's shipped unlocked so I want to try it this trip.

It might not be the same now, but I think you need to get a simcard cutter and cut down the sim to the proper size. I could be wrong.

Digicel doesn't offer any Apple products and the iPhone SIM card is different (smaller) so I don't think you will be able to just slip a card into your phone and go.

and please don't make yourself a target with that phone --- people get murdered for blackberrys (and less)

ETA: also Verizon iPhone is CDMA not GSM (Digicel) and there is no SIM card slot

[Ras Walleye]

The Verizon iPhone 5 does have a sim card. How about Claro or Lime?

[jasperpso]

Yes, from the research I've done,it'll work.. you will need a sim card cutter, cheap on amazon

[Seveen]

I know you must have a digicel phone --- take out the sim card and see if it fits your iPhone5

Actually we left our last Digicel with family in December. I know it takes a smaller sim but I'm not sure if it's just a regular sim cut down or if it's a special sim.

nano sim

Lime has iPhones on their website. Should therefore be able to get the correct sim from them.

You will need a nano sim, and it will work. Verizon iPhone 5's come GSM unlocked.
