I'm looking for an upgrade, and perhaps phone with eSIM. Would phone be locked to one network or I would work with any sim card and any eSIM plan from another provider? I'm not sure how this works, but having eSIM/SIM locked to one provider seems silly.</P> Tue, 10 Nov 2020 22:12:52 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Archived-Posts/Upgrade/m-p/977774#M281034 some1 2020-11-10T22:12:52Z https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Archived-Posts/Upgrade/m-p/977776#M281035 <P>Most contract devices sold by EE are locked to EE for the 1st 6 months, after which you may apply to have them unlocked..</P> Tue, 10 Nov 2020 22:17:09 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Archived-Posts/Upgrade/m-p/977776#M281035 XRaySpeX 2020-11-10T22:17:09Z https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Archived-Posts/Upgrade/m-p/977778#M281036 <P>But if I want use eSIM for my personal plan, and spare SIM slot for work (provided) number, which might be on different provider. 6 months is long time to wait. Might shop for phone somewhere else.</P> Tue, 10 Nov 2020 22:28:17 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Archived-Posts/Upgrade/m-p/977778#M281036 some1 2020-11-10T22:28:17Z
