The beauty of GSM phones is the ability to change phones or service providers at will. Inside every GSM phone is a SIM card, which contains information about your subscription to your provider. Transferring that SIM card to another phone transfers your subscription to that device. Changing the SIM card in your phone lets you keep your same hardware while changing providers. This is particularly appealing when travelling abroad as prepaid SIM cards can save significantly over international roaming charges.
Most large GSM providers (including all of those in the Americas) "lock" their phones to prevent you from using sim cards from other providers. This makes it impossible to keep your hardware when changing services. It also prevents you from using phones that are sold by other providers. Additionally, the only way to use your phone abroad is to pay high roaming charges.
Getting your phone unlocked will eliminate this restriction, thus allowing you to use any sim card you choose, whether at home or away. You will be able to keep your phone after changing providers, use phones sold by other providers, and take advantage of low- priced prepaid sim cards when travelling.
