This will not work for unlocking. Using the pre-loaded Tracfone SIM intended for BYOD devices will not unlock a Tracfone-branded (or Simple-Mobile branded) phone. The service will work fine, but not the unlocking.
Sign up for the email list and get 25% off. Also, your price doesn't include the plan cost that is required.

It doesn't work that way... Which network the MVNO is using have nothing to do with whether the phone is usable on another MVNO. This phone won't work with Mint Mobile until it is unlocked either after 12 months of service or using things like Rsim.

Btw, Simple mobile phones do work on Tracfone, Total Wireless, Net10, etc because they are owned by the same company.

Since Simple Mobile and Mint Mobile are both T-Mobile MVNOs, this should work on Mint as well, yes?

I haven't bought anything but unlocked Android phones for years, so maybe this is a stupid question, but can you break it down for an idiot like me-- who do you trade the locked iPhone in to to get the unlocked version? TIA
Of course. Go to Apple store and tell them you want to buy unlocked iPhone SE. Give them locked iPhone and they will give you $160 credit. You pay them $239 plus tax and you got yourself an unlocked iPhone SE.

Are you sure Tracfone will be willing to unlock it? I wanted to do the same with a Total Wireless (which is similarly another Tracfone's sister company) iPhone and Tracfone clearly said that they would not unlock it after 1 year of usage and that I should resolve this through Total Wireless.

For those who wants to use it on Tracfone, you can get the same phone new from Tracfone for like $147 (plan included. w/ code CART15 and autopay enable). $10 more upfront, but you can use it on the $40 annual Tracfone plan to get it unlocked.

Edit: nvm, it is actually out of stock now. Refurb one is still available for $125 using same method

It worked for me because I did not turn on the phone until Tracfone sim was inserted.

You can always get a Rsim for about $10-15 at eBay

Wow. So i can use this phone immediately on an existing redpocket SIM/line? I didnt realize redpocket was part of the tracfone family. I dont care if it locked for a year as well as redpocket works on it as i just extended a 360 day plan with redpocket for $84. Or am I misunderstanding what you are saying. Thank you for replying.

This phone works on the tracfone network.
Just don't turn it on until the Tracfone sim is inserted into this phone.

Currently Travfone has a 1yr plan for $40, Link for reference below:
