In some countries there are certain laws and restrictions that doesn't allow Apple to market iPhones which are locked to local cell phone service providers. These laws made Apple come out with an apple iphone that known in the market as Factory or Officially Unlocked iPhone, which is not 100% true, as this phone is never been locked, it had been manufactured by Apple without any SIM card restrictions so that you can utilize it with any GSM SIM card worldwide.
One of the advantages of this phone is that it does not matter how often you update, upgrade or downgrade your firmware, it will still work with any Sim worldwide, also you can still jailbreak this iPhone and you do not have to be worried about effecting the unlocking status of your factory unlocked iPhone.
