Buying an Apple Mac from the USA to the UK?
Popular Searches: used laptops|used Alienware laptops| used Apple laptops| used Mac laptops| Used Dell Laptops
If I buy an Apple Mac (laptop or desktop) from the USA, will the warranty still be honoured if it is going to be used in the United Kingdom? The reason being is that with the current exchange rate being so high, I can get a top of the range one for the same price as the bottom of the range one here in the UK, and seeing as I will be visiting New York very soon I may as well pick one up whilst I am there.
I know that UK power sockets provide more power than US plug sockets, thus I would need to get a converter, however I am just unaware of Apple’s warranty policy with regards of buying in one country and using in another.
Any advice?

mac laptop and desktop warranties are worldwide; wherever you are, if the laptop breaks, you can bring it into the local authorized apple resellers and they’ll probably repair it for you under the warranty. Also, the adapter is not a problem, for you can buy a separate voltage adapter for a cheap price, but usually the adapter that comes with the laptop can convert the voltage to the appropriate level, but check the manual to be sure how much volts the adapter can handle.
The warranty is good where ever you buy it. If you had an issue with the repair being done they may ask you to send it back to them to fix it, other than that the Apple Care warranty is good any where. Good luck, I love my Mac Book Pro
Voltage should be a non issue as the power adapter usually will work with voltages from 105-230 volts. Read the adapter to be sure before plugging it in.
