Unlocked (what's this?)

What is an "Unlocked" phone?

Many cell phones are designed to use a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card to store subscriber data. These SIM cards are issued by the carrier and provide cell service to the phone. "Locked" cell phones will only recognize SIM cards from the carrier that originally provided the phone. Almost every cell phone provided by a US carrier is locked to that carrier’s network.

"Unlocked" cell phones will recognize SIM cards from any carrier using Global System Mobile Communications (GSM) technology. Customers with "unlocked" cell phones are able to use any GSM carrier of their choosing, including "pre-pay" or "no contract" SIM card options. "Unlocked" cell phones also accept international SIM cards that provide discounted rates while traveling abroad.

Samsung SGH-i727 Galaxy S II Skyrocket Android Smartphone Features

A fast phone for a fast network.
The fastest network speed available is 4G LTE, so naturally the Skyrocket™ comes ready to jump right on board and make the most of every blazing advantage the network has to offer. And now you can check voicemails even faster, thanks to Visual Voicemail. It allows you to see your list of messages and who they’re from, so you can choose which ones to play or delete. It’s a real timesaver.

A processor that makes lightning look slow.
Your Galaxy S II Skyrocket has an astonishingly powerful 1.5 GHz dual core processor to keep all your videos, games and info fast and smooth. Your laptop may feel jealous.

The screen is a sight to behold.
The Samsung Super AMOLED™ Plus Screen is the industry standard for jaw-dropping color. Imagine the most beautiful sunset you've ever seen, now perfectly reproduced on a phone. 4.5" of rich, deep hues and amazing clarity. Yellows are yellower, greens are greener, and blacks are blacker.

Get delicious Gingerbread with every phone.
The Galaxy S II Skyrocket uses the state-of-the-art Android, 2.3.5 Gingerbread as your operating platform. It's fast, versatile, and extremely customizable. Plus you'll have access to over 250,000 apps on the Android Market. Yummy.

The best I have had (so far)

This is a great phone, Android platform is well done, the only problem is the synch software provided free by Samsung (Kies). Look elsware, its awfull and does not work most of the time (have a search for problems and you will see).
