A friendly reminder that isps do NOT care about you or your digital rights. Always best to buy directly from the OEM rather than from the telecommunications (unless you can't afford it). Do proper research before buying a phone!

This is why you never, ever, buy a phone from a carrier
Ok. Now how do I unlock my samsung note 20 ultra that isn't carrier locked?
Also never ever by a Samsung phone. Seriously, you have to check in advance what you can and cannot do with your phone. Stop caring about megapixels, 15 cameras all around the edge of the phone and it being foldable 8 times or more. Then you can also buy phones under $1000. You should try it.
After a couple years of solid pixel use I just ordered an S24 Ultra. I don't care about alot of things but I've had enough terrible signal, WiFi, Bluetooth and battery life.
My wife bought an S23 Ultra and I had my Pixel 7 pro, we're both out and about, she's got full bars 5G, and I've barely got any signal. She can leave her phone anywhere in the house and her bluetooth works up to like 60' away in the right conditions, meanwhile I'm getting half that at most, and there's a 3 second delay over Bluetooth so watching video is fun. She gets like 2 days of charge out of her phone normally, and with minor use I'm below 40% at the end of the day.
