    I reviewed the phone later than expected and when I got it, IT AS CARRIER LOCKED TO AT&T! I tried carrier unlocking it through AT&T which they couldn't do. I ended up returning it to Best Buy but when I tried to return it in stores they said it was already returned and I had to talk to a manager to finally get it returned. Over all just a painful experience, If you need a phone don't buy renewed unlocked, more than likely companies don't check if it's actually carrier unlocked and they just try to sell it.

    HORRIBLE BUY

    First off this phone was nof sealed properly. You failed to seal the phone properly. These phones are supposed to be water resistant up to 1.5 M. I accidentally submerged it 6 inches, pulled it out less than 2 seconds later, it stopped working until I took it to a Repair shop to suck the water out, and rhen it started working again 3 monts later the SIM stopped working. I had tmobile install an eSIM but still no signal. I sent it directly into SAMSUNG for repairs and THEY COULDNT FIX IT. Why cant your Geek Squad fix Samsung phones if you sell them?? Horrible experience with this purchase.
