Not really. If you want an unlocked phone, there are less options. Some models aren't even available unlocked. And often you have to search through some small text to find if a phone is unlocked or not. If you know what you are doing, it isn't too difficult, but the average consumer doesn't know what to look for and can very easily end up with a phone locked to the wrong network. Not to mention that in brick and mortar stores, most phone available are locked.
