I bought the phone for gift to a family member, but not yet in use. However, I ordered UNLOCKED phone. If I discover that the phone is LOCKED, I will return it.

I actually left the device in another city recently (by mistake). I would have to assume if it says it's Motorola, it is Motorola. It works great. And the price is SO good that ... I'd get one anyway.

It means the phone is not hardwired to a specific wireless company like AT&T.; Being unlocked you can select what company will give you service, by inserting the corresponding chip(s) in your phone

Yes it's unlocked and was in very good condition. I don't know about use in other countries. SORRY.

My phone doesn't have an M either. I purchased the additional handset because the numbers were the same (less the M) and the handset was identical in appearance to the one I had. I don't know what the M signifies so can only suggest you contact a retailer and ask.

If the seller says it's unlocked, then it is unlocked. The phone I got a couple of years back was unlocked.

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.

I don't know thw answer to your question but I am learning. I got this phone for free from Straighttalk and will learn the wheres and whys in time. I pay $30/mo for my service so they are not charging like it is a "smartphone" so I am confused by one comment made by a purchaser. I assume it is unlocked as I don't have to do anything special to make it work. Am I wrong about this or do I "need" to unlock it?

Unlocked as far as I know.... I purchased it and sent it back because it was the wrong carrier

Hola Milagros, "unlocked" significa que si bien es un teléfono móvil de AT&T; en USA, según el vendedor puede utilizarze cualquier chip de otra compañía en otros países, y el teléfono funcionaría sin problemas. La experiencia me dice que esto no es correcto en todos los casos, me aseguraría de preguntar colocando la información de país y compañía del chip que colocaría, esperando respuesta del vendedor antes de tomar la decisión de comprarlo.

Hi. From what I understand, locked or unlocked simply refers to whether the phone is already "connected" to a wireless company or not. Unlocked then meaning you can buy it and use it with any carrier. Locked meaning you must use it with the carrier that's stated. So if it's locked and you are NOT due for an update, you'll be breaking your contract or activate a new line and contract. Tho there's nothing stating that you have to activate it immediately. Just that when you do, it has to be with the specified carrier. Hope this helps. Good luck!

The one I bought on eBay was "unlocked" - or "Off Contract" is the correct term. Watch out for Pre-paid!
