This is prepaid, but most likely is already unlocked (based on reviews and feedback from other thread).

WARNING: While these phones were initially, mistakenly, shipped as totally unlocked, as of 7/18/17 Verizon and Apple have figured out the mistake and are locking them down so they can only be used with a Verizon pre-paid plan. They are even going back and locking down phones that were already activated on other carriers or plans. The second sentence is NOT true; not a singe report of this happening as of yet.

If you have an unopened phone from this "deal" return it to BestBuy, preferably unopened. You will not be able to activate it on anything but a Verizon pre-paid plan from 7/18/17 forward. And even if you activated it earlier, you stand a good chance of having your phone shut down subsequently.

Did you have to pop in a different SIM first? Can I just pop in my SIM from my iPhone 6 and be good to go?

Nope. Popped in my sim directly from my LG V20.

This comes with a prepaid SIM card on the outside of the package but I didn't fool with that.

Please confirm. Can I pop in a T-Mobile sim and then the iPhone SE is locked to T-Mobile? Will upgrade the iOS and rebooting be a problem in the future? Will the phone go back to Verizon lock?

Yes, but if you put in a Verizon(Post Paid) sim in first, it will be unlocked.

Verizon(POST PAID) doesn't lock phones. If you put a verizon (POST PAID) sim in it first. The phone will be unlocked. If you put another sim in it first, it will lock to that carrier. So if you put a T-Mobile sim in it will lock to T-Mobile until you get Tmobile to unlock it.
