I was wondering if you could use a EE locked phone (Galaxy Note 4) with an Orange sim?
I read online and apparently some phones you can, some you cannot.
Thanks

I can't say I have a definite answer but my GiffGaff sim worked in my o2 phone so I'm guessing it will be the same for orange/EE

Thanks buddy, I don't know. Don't want to waste 350GBP and find out my sim doesn't work in it and have to pay loads extra to get it unlocked :L

if the contract is with Orange then no probably not. You might be best just upgrading your current contract with the phone you want or just find a new contract all together and pay put the sim one.

Well obviously thats why he asked if he could use it in his phone? Only some phones/sims can be used in a different network though

If the phone is locked to EE or Orange he can use it vice-versa.

If you look on the website it says EE is the same as Orange.
