You'll receive an unlocked device, so there’s no requirement to commit to any network, leaving you free to decide which SIM card/network to use. This gives you the opportunity to find the most suitable plan, whether that’s contract or pay-as-you-go, throughout the lifetime of the phone.
Top tip: Ss this mobile phone is supplied SIM free and unlocked, you have access to SIM only deals – these usually offer far better value for money – especially for all-important data plans.
