^ yes and the future version as well. since sim activation dadaan yung unlock which is legit unlock. although meron caveats, here's the pros and cons of traditional
old gpp/rsim:
Pros:
* magagamit mo yung phone mo, basic functionality wise (call and text)
Cons:
* relies on specific IOS version
* no data on non-jailbreaked phones
* no *143#
* laging may +63 para lang makatawag at makatext
* hit and miss ang compatibility.
* limited support, eg, supported lang ang japan at mailan ilang us locked phones.
* sometimes may issue na hindi ka maka receive ng call at text kahit na meron naman signal sa iphone mo. kailangan lahi mag airplane mode on/off para ma sure lang na gumagana ng matino.
* prepaid sim only
new gpplte/rsim11 and later
Pros:
* relies on ICCID loophole. unlock is done via wifi through apples server, this is why pag na activate na, good as FU na yung phone mo, functionality wise
* good as fu
* can use *143#
* can use any sim in any phone that is locked in any countries.
* can use on postpaid
* upgrade iOS version via OTA without getting reactivation (meaning hindi ulit ma lock yung phone mo basta OTA upgrade lang gagawin, hindi yung upgrade yung iphone via Itunes or factory reset).
Cons:
* once na patch ng apple yung ICCID loophole, gameover na hindi ma aactivate yung mga bagong sim, yung last activated SIM lang ang magagamit
* always requires activation pag nag kabit ka ng bagong SIM or nag factory reset ka, thus pag na patch na yung ICCID exploit from apple hindi mo na ma activate yan
Extra information about the new SIM unlocker in the market:
Yung SIM unlocker po na bago ngayun relies on ICCID exploit para ma activate yung phone mo under your carrier sim choice. This relies on apple's server para ma gamit mo yung locked phone mo sa preffered SIM card na gusto mo. So once na ma patch ng apple yung exploit sa server nila, hindi ka na makakapag activate na bagong SIM sa phone mo.
So in other terms, yung bagong SIM Imposer ngayun is only good for 1 SIM use, at least that's what they were designed for. So kung ikaw yung tipong linggo linggo mag factory reset ng phone or 10 beses kung mag palit ng sim sa phone mo kada araw, Locked Iphone is not for you. Bumili kayo FU para wala sakit ng ulo. desgigned lang ang mga sim imposer na meron permanent sim. hindi ito para sa mga tao na maraming kabit.
