Apple Stores Confirm Unlocked iPhone 5s Sales in Canada on Sept. 20 at 8AM
As we first told you six days ago, Apple Stores in Canada will indeed be selling unlocked iPhone 5s units at launch day, this Friday, September 20 starting at 8AM. This is a change from last year’s retail launch (which we also first told you about), where unlocked sales did not happen for the iPhone 5. Some of you have asked for further confirmation–well here it is.
According to the six Apple stores we contacted (Richmond Centre, Pacific Centre, Rideau, Metrotown, Oakridge, Eaton Centre), all confirmed iPhone 5s sales would start at 8AM local time this Friday, just as our source mentioned. So get your beach chair and prepare to start lining up Thursday night! Who’s lining up?

Will be lining up at Yorkdale. Who’s in? 🙂
dude you wanna hold a spot for me? i cant come until 745
Fairly certain I’ll get lynched by everyone else in line for holding a spot!
not even, we’ll be like i was with your earlier and i had to go drop off someone to work or something.
15-20 mins after the first person arrived I can condone since you’d only be getting in front of a small group if anyone… 15 minutes before store opens is total BS.
Alright fine, i understand. I’d get cheesed also if soemone came in front of me minutes prior to opening while i waited 4 hours in the cold. I reserved mine at tbooth. 9:15 walk in, no line up
I’ll wait till January when they will likely add a 128gb option, like they did with the iPad this year.
that’s a lot of storage. what do you plan on putting in the phone? 1080ps
ive heard all providers (ie bell, telus etc) wont be receiving the gold color regardless of capacity for launch. anyone confirm?
Not me. Waiting for Iphone 6.
Not I… iPhone 6..by then it will be perfect to upgrade from my iPhone 4 😀
ah come on, make the switch already
Waiting at the metrotown store! Where does the line up start?
Probably by the doors by the starbucks on the skytrain side
Anyone know what time I should start lining up around? Never went to a launch event before.
go line up around 5am
Who is lining up at the Waterloo Conestoga store? I’ll be there around 10:30pm, if you’re there, say hi 🙂
10.30pm? That’s a bit early! I lined up there at 3am for the iPhone 4 and I was the first in line =]
oh really? Then I’m gonna beat you this time (if you’re buying the 5s ofc) 😉
Yes, it was right at the entrance. I think they opened the South entrance first. And we had to wait until 9 to get inside the mall.
And I’m not in Waterloo anymore. I’m lining up in Calgary =]
Which entrance is the one beside Spring Rolls/Old Navy? Is that South???
oh btw, where was the line at conestoga? Was it right outside of the entrance? Because I called the store and they said they mall doesn’t open until 7am
Anyone going to upper Canada mall? Wouldn’t mind a tag team.
I’ll be there around 2:30 if anyone is interested. 🙂

help me out please … what are advantages of an unlocked iphone? I travel 4 – 5 times/year to other places, mostly US. when I travel I usually have access to wifi, Can I change sim card to a local carrier when I.m away ?
Yes. Sounds like an unlocked iPhone is what you need. Pop in any carrier SIM such as T-Mobile, AT&T, etc.
