Unlocked is GSM only. Verizon is unlocked for CDMA or GSM. Both phones work on same network bands. Will work in turkey.

Unlocked means that you can use it with other telecom carries. Yes you need a telecom carrier or ISP who provides internet connection with a SIM card. You can use it for your wifi enabled cell/smart phone, laptop and the likes. You must use a SIM on it from any telecom carrie who offers Internet connection. I hope this helps? If so I am glad to have assisted you.

An unlocked phone is a phone that can work with any company in every part of the world including China. You can purchase any company's SIM card for an unlocked phone. An open phone is restricted to a specific country and to a specific company. And most open phones do not use SIM cards.

You don't need to go to Verizon. The Phone is Unlock. You can use any carrier.

I believe the only difference with the two different models is that the international version uses HSPA+ vs the US model that works on LTE/4G. I'm currently using mine with AT&T; on HSPA+ and am very happy with the data speed. I cannot speak for other carriers at this time.

yes, that is because the European one is for European dual band and USA one is for USA dual band. That means you cannot use that phone in EU if you bought it in the USA and vice-verse. You will be better off buying unlocked quad-band phone on ebay or amazon, but before you buy it check independent sites to make sure it is quad band (or at least tri-band).In EU it is very common to have phone where you change the SIM in your unlocked phone to save money on roaming charges (depending what country you are at, since there is many more countries in EU than in North America).

Locked means it is linked to ONE network, like Us Cellular. It can only be used on that Network. You can't use it on Verizon Network. Unlocked would mean, you'd be you able to use it on ANY network, like Straight Talk, T-Mobile or Verizon.

Yes it will unlocked means it will work with any company even prepaid like strait talk or use it as att go phone. Now to make sure it works in any country you just need to see what frequensy it uses. I hear this phone don't work on sprint or maybe tmobile because they us different frequencys.

I bought an unlocked one in the US and I am using it when I'm traveling to Asia. Pretty sure you can get it unlocked also in your country, and you can use it. It just needs to be unlocked.

Unlocked means you can use other carriers than the original company that released it.. just launched must mean newly released

The phone is not unlocked but you can unlock it and use it for your country since it is a GSM phone. You will review the phone locked. You will have to unlock it yourself.
