Where to buy non carrier branded version?

[holmes5518]

Hey guys..I'd like to know a decent source in the USA to buy a non carrier branded version? Do places like Best Buy offer these versions? Just trying to get my ducks in a row before launch,

Best Buy definitely only offers branded phones. Your best bet is a reputable seller on eBay, in my opinion. Lots of cell phone stores sell new unlocked phones there.

Best Buy offers non-carrier unlocked phones, but never carry them in store, only online.

It maybe slightly off topic, does carrier branded version means there will be a carrier logo on the phone? Or it just means that the cell phone is made to a certain carrier's specification eg different LTE bands etc...

Amazon sells non-carrier branded phones too.

I have used Negri Electronics: Shopping for High End Unlocked Wireless Devices, iPhone, BlackBerry, Samsung Galaxy, Tablets, Digital Camera and more in Nevada several times. Trustworthy but not cheap.

Negri is not very trust worthy from my experience. I bought my GSM Galaxy Nexus from them and was told that they would warranty/repair it if was within one year. 3 months in the wifi on the phone broke and they told me to contact samsung in japan to figure it out myself, or they could repair it for a fee and that it would take 3 months.

It means that the phone is made for the network and will have carrier branding as well. They go hand in hand.
