Can I use any unlocked cell phone?

[erica102295]

Hello!

It took me about 15 frustrating minutes to figure out how to create a discussion so I could just ask one simple question. I don't know why it's always so difficult for me. Anyway, can I use any unlocked cell phone for my Verizon account? I have a Samsung Rogue on a basic plan and want to upgrade my phone to a thinner phone with a larger display screen. I have been shopping around for that perfect phone at a price I can afford and have found a phone produced in China that I love how it looks! I have bought a tablet from China before and I love it as well. I was nervous about it being a cheaper quality tablet because it was a cheaper price, but it was actually a great tablet and I would still be enjoying it if I hadn't cracked the screen somehow. So, would I be able to use that phone from China on my verizon account?? I didn't know if Verizon had any policies on the phones we use.

Thank you very much and I'd be happy to answer any questions you have for me.
