Unlocked Cell Phones means that the phone is not locked to any particular GSM phone service providers. Before you make a decision to purchase a particular phone, please make sure that the frequency of your mobile phone network is compatible with the phone you wish to purchase.

If the network is compatible, simcards provided from your GSM service provider (at&t, T-Mobile, Roger Wireless, etc) will work with the phone.

Within the United States and Canada, the majority uses only GSM 1900/ GSM 850 bandwidth. In UK, Australia and most parts of Asia with the exception of Japan and South Korea, their networks use GSM 900 / GSM 1800.

Here are the country's ranges for your reference:

Quad Band GSM 850/900/1800/1900 WCDMA
Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America, New Zealand and Australia

Tri band GSM 900/1800/1900 +UMTS
Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Australia, and New Zealand

wireless carriers such as Verizon work on the cdma network and do not have sim cards in any of their phones or devices

Not true...I have a Verizon Motorola Droid phone and it most assuredly has a SIM card. So the above is incorrect.

Well if you want to text or call or use the internet yes..

cdma uses a different system, but same idea.

If you want to use device as media player, then no

The SIM card in phones is based off the company that produces their cell phones. There are two companies in the United states that are contract phones and they have sim cards they are AT&T and T-mobile. Sprint and Verzion do not have SIM cards.
