The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Apple does not use that term. They simply sell phones that are "locked" or "unlocked". Likewise, the term "SIM unlocked" that you used, also has no meaning.


The best way to make sure a phone is "unlocked" is to purchase an unlocked phone directly from Apple, or from a legitimate source in a country where all iPhones are unlocked (such as India).


A locked phone can only be legally unlocked by the carrier it is locked to.
