Does ICLOUD PRIVATE RELAY work in Cambodia?

Post by SlappyJo »

Hello. I'll be moving to Cambodia in a few months and I have an iPhone. I always use Icloud Private Relay in the US and I would like to find out if it works in Cambodia. If it does is it fast or slow there? If you don't know what iCloud Private Relay is, it is Apple's version of a VPN. You have to pay for iCloud storage but then you can use the private relay to protect your browsing history and for security.

I was able to confirm with an expat friend in Bangkok, Thailand that Icloud Private Relay works fine there, although a tad bit slower than here, but does anyone have an iPhone with the latest software version who uses Icloud private relay in Cambodia?

And are iPhones cheaper in Cambodia than in US? I've read that there is no sales tax in Cambodia so even if the prices are the same it might be cheaper in some Khmer phone shop if they import iPhones. I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max right now and want to buy an iPhone 13 Pro Max and will wait until I arrive in Phnom Penh to upgrade if iPhones are cheaper there.

Thanks for the help.

I can’t vouch for the phone prices, but when I replaced my damaged iPad Air3 late last year, I ended up with a cellular model, and apple care included, for about the same price as the UK Wi-fi only model.

I just can’t remember the name of the apple reseller. I’m not sure if it was iOne

Here’s iOne’s website, for comparison.

I’ve actually not heard of iCloud private relay. Is that something US based only? I’ll have to investigate
