My 2nd-hand iPhone 13 Mini says SIM locked. I believe it's EMEA region locked. I could use an e-SIM but not a physical Asian SIM card.
Is it true that I can't use non-EMEA SIMs ever?
I used an unlocking service and the message I got from the check was, "your iPhone can not be network unlocked as the Financial Eligibility Date (FED) has not been met yet"
