A sim free mobile is just a mobile phone in its purest form, as it was manufactured. When a mobile is built, it isn't put together with any contract or company network in mind; it's just a brand new mobile phone ready to be used with the sim card you choose to insert. It's a bit like your own new computer before you had an internet provider or an account set up. It's important to differentiate between sim free mobile phones and unlocked phones, which are by definition tampered goods.
