About the iPhone Upgrade Program

If I choose any of the 4 main carriers, will my phone be unlocked phone? Or it has to be locked and tied to my carrier.


Because I want to use the sim card that is from different countires, i am afriad that i will not work.


Also, I am told that only a post paid account will work with the iphone upgrade program, not prepaid, is that true?

Hi there,


We see you have some questions about whether or not the iPhone you buy will be unlocked. We can understand wanting to get that clarified, and we'd be happy to help.


We have a note on this our iPhone purchasing page here:


Buy iPhone


As the page notes in the "Choose your carrier" section, "All iPhone models are unlocked except those purchased with AT&T Installment Plans."


We hope that helps.


Take care!
