What to look for when buying a iPhone?
I'm looking to buy a used iPhone 5 but I have a couple questions.
First of all, I plan on unlocking the iPhone so I can use Lyca Mobile as a carrier on it. I was told that I can't buy a Sprint iPhone with esn because esn means that it was reported lost or stolen or something like that, so it won't work with Lyca Mobile.
So as some questions:
Is what I heard true or not, or can I buy the Sprint iPhone to unlock?
If not, what should I look for when buying a iPhone to unlock later on (Special carrier, IMED, ESN etc.)?
Can I buy any iPhone and unlock it to use on Lyca Mobile?
-Thanks
Added (1). ******UPDATE
My main question is will the Lyca Mobile SIM card work on the Unlocked Sprint iPhone 5?
