Things to keep in mind if you are buying the iPhone 17 from outside India

Another thing to keep in mind is that some markets sell carrier-locked iPhones, which means they may not work with Indian SIM cards. As for the warranty, all iPhones come with a global warranty, so you don’t have to worry about sending the phone back to the country where you purchased it to avail warranty.
