Use my current unlocked phone with EE Sim?

I'm aware that there are similar questions out there but think my situation is unique!

 

I have an unlocked Samsung 7 and use giffgaff. However my new homenhas terrible reception so will swap to EE as I know that it gets good reception here.

 

Can I just put a new EE sim card in my unlocked phone and all will be ok?

Technology is never that easy. Is it?
