It means that this model will not work with Vonage as the supplier/provider of Voice over IP (VoIP). It does work with many VoIP providers including mine which is Nextiva. The term "Unlocked" refers to software settings in the box (phone etc) that are normally not available to the consumer. If such a box is "unlocked" it can possibly be modified to work with a service it is not normally intended to work with. Making modifications to an unlocked product generally voids its warranty, may cause it to work improperly if the modification is incorrect or the product can fail all together and not be recoverable.

The phone that I purchased was unlocked. It functions just like any phone you would get from Verizon. We took it to Verizon to have them load our contacts and pictures from the old phone into this one. It works just fine.

Unlocked means its not branded to any carrier as Judith has stated. Additionally, this can mean that it doesn't have some of the restrictions that Carriers may put into the phone. It has just the software that the Manufacture ZTE put on it and not ATT or T-Mobile would add to the phone. You can add those apps if you want them or take them off. Where as an ATT/T-Mobile those apps are stuck on there unless you root the phone.

An unlocked phone means that it takes a SIM card, so it can work on GSM networks(like AT&T;), not like the CDMA networks (like Verizon) that DO NOT use SIM cards. It also means that you can use the phone on different networks that use SIM cards, such as Straight Talk or T-Mobile.

Unlocked phone means that you can use the phone with any Prepaid service. The phone does not come with a sim card. An example is I am using this phone through Net 10 Service. I had to purchase the sim card for the phone and it only cost me 2 dollars. This is a one time purchase.

I don't know what you mean by unlocked. This is a tablet, not a phone. There is an expansion slot for added storage.
