What is an Unlocked Phone?

An unlocked phone is not tied to any network, meaning you can insert any SIM card and start using it instantly. Whether you're switching providers, traveling abroad, or looking for a better plan, an unlocked phone gives you total freedom.

Why Choose an Unlocked Phone?

• No Carrier Restrictions – Use any network in Canada or internationally.
• Save Money – No long-term contracts or hidden carrier fees.
• Travel-Friendly – Swap local SIMs abroad and avoid expensive roaming fees.
• Higher Resale Value – Unlocked phones hold their value better than carrier-locked ones.

Can I Use My Own SIM Card?

Yes! Just insert your existing SIM card, and you're all set. Since December 2017, all phones sold in Canada must be unlocked by default, ensuring you can choose the provider that best suits your needs. If you own an older locked device, your carrier is required to unlock it for free upon request.

Do Unlocked Phones Work with All Carriers?

Absolutely! All major Canadian networks, including Rogers, Bell, Telus, and smaller providers, support unlocked devices. Just ensure your phone is compatible with the carrier's network bands, and you're good to go.

Do Unlocked Phones Work Internationally?

Yes! Unlocked phones are ideal for travelers—just pop in a local SIM card and enjoy lower rates and better coverage while abroad. This way, you avoid the hefty roaming charges most Canadian carriers impose.
