The sim lock is what is common in the US. Carriers often offer the phones cheaper than buying direct from manufacturer and offer payment plans. Usually when the phone is fully paid off they'll unlock the sim. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] kadu@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] quicksand@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago Oh that's wild. I had no idea. I'm in the US and don't have the OEM unlock available in developer settings. I think it's Samsung that is limiting the bootloader unlock, don't know if it's due to pressure from the carriers though permalink fedilink source parent
