I need one for general purposes only, NOT for gaming, so I don’t really care about gaming-related features.

I’m going to buy it in Asia, as that’s where I live (Vietnam specifically), and would appreciate any advice. 🙂

    What a pain. They finally ended this in Canada at the end of 2017. All phones sold since then have to be sold unlocked. Any phone sold before that time is likely still locked to a carrier, but that carrier must provide the unlock code for free upon request. Feels like they did this one right, and it is great to be able to keep an old flagship device for 5+ years and travel with it or move services around as needed.
