most cell phones are sold “locked” to a certain phone company

for example the bold is sold only for at&t, if you wanted to use it for t-mobile then youd first have to unlock it (not sure about this process) and then afterward you’d be able to use it on any other phone company

but in most case it will only work with gsm phones (at&t or t-mobile)because they use sim-cards thus only requiring that to be usuable
