A:Answer Best Buy doesn’t sell this phone unlocked. You can purchase it from them as a One-Time payment however it has to be attached to either a AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon account. (PrePaid or pay as you go accounts don’t qualify) If you don’t have one of those carriers then you cannot buy the phone from them at this moment. The only unlocked phone that they sell is the iPhone SE2. The phone that Best Buy sells will be tied to that carrier for 60-90 days before the carrier will unlock it for you. Once a new SIM card is inserted into the iPhone, it will then be locked to that carrier as well.
