Which Unlocked Phones Work With Verizon

All unlocked phones work on carriers that use GSM networks, which include AT&T, T-Mobile, Cricket Wireless and more. Some popular prepaid carriers that also use GSM include AT&T GoPhone, NET10, TracFone and Simple Mobile. You will need to use SIM cards from a GSM provider in your unlocked phone to get service.

Verizon is making big changes to how customers buy devices for its network. And that could mean more opportunities and choices for how consumers acquire smartphones in the future. Earlier this month, Verizon that went with those contracts. And this week, the company said it will make it easier for customers to bring unlocked devices -- a term used to describe devices that do not have software blocking them from use on other carriers -- to the Verizon network. These changes could eventually lead to more choices at a wider range of price points for consumers. But figuring out which devices work on which wireless networks isn't always easy.
