I was looking through some Pixels on Amazon and the sellers indicate when a phone is “unlocked” but they don’t specify if it’s carrier unlocked or factory unlocked. I’ve even found reviews from unhappy customers who said that the phone they received is not oem unlockable even though the listing said factory unlocked.
On the other hand, when I look in eBay, there are sellers with 99.3% positive ratings who are very specific in their listing indicating that their phones are “oem unlockable for developers”.
Is there any advantage in buying from Amazon instead of from eBay? Any other input is welcome. Thanks in advance
