I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. - eviltoast

What is the difference between cellular data being used on my phone and cellular data being used on my notebook? Data is data.

    and that’s even if your phone/carrier allows it.

    This is why you should buy the phone outright yourself then get a SIM only deal, rather than paying for your phone in contract.

      Yeah I do, but SIM unlocked and bootloader unlockable are two different things. Sadly, not every phone (or even the same phones made for different carriers) are allowed to be bootloader unlocked; I have no idea why, but it is and sucks.

        Yeah it’s definitely true, even with the same manufacturer it can be hit and miss. You gotta do your research before you buy.
