I had preordered the iPhone during the week under Verizon paying in full. I figured it would be easier to transfer my number to it vs the hassles I’ve had in the past with unlocked not being in the Verizon system and issues getting them activated.
When I went to complete my order this morning, I had a lot of issues, ultimately got to payment, and crashing out saying my choice was no longer available.
I went to the website and ordered the same configuration but unlocked, that order went through, and I could pick up at the store next week.
When I went to my email, it showed both orders went through.
In the end, if I am not financing through the carrier, paying up front, what is the difference between unlocked, and carrier specific? Asking mainly so when I ultimately sell the phone, I’m assuming it could be used with any carrier?
