| Q. |
What is an unlocked phone? |
| A. |
“Unlocked” is term that is mainly used to refer to GSM, sim card based, phones. These phones can be used with any sim card that is used by GSM-compatible wireless carriers, both within and outside of the United States. This differs from most phones that are sold in U.S., which are typically locked to the carrier, limiting the phone’s usability. Unlocked phones can be used with popular GSM carriers such as T-Mobile, Cingular Wireless, Fido, TelMex, Orange, O2, and many more. |

What is the difference between an unlocked U.S. phone and an unlocked Import phone? |
| A. |
The differences between an unlocked U.S. phone and an unlocked Import phone include carrier branding and software, warranty, and certain features. While both an unlocked U.S. phone and an unlocked Import phone will work with any GSM carrier within and outside of the United States, we recommend that you research the phone model you are interested in to ensure that your local carrier is compatible and capable of utilizing the featured services that you would like to use. |
