"Locked" means cell data and service will only work on Tmobile's network. All other features and capabilities are unaffected. The promotion is in two parts - 1) you get billed in equal amounts over the promotional period for the full price of thee phone 2) you are issued an equal credit to bring your monthly net payment for the phone $0. In order to make it worthwhile to Tmobile they require you to stay on their service for the promotional period and when that ends, the phone is yours and you did not pay anything for it and you can also unlock the phone so it will work on any carrier's service.
I don’t know of any carrier that gives you a phone for free where you can immediately cancel service and still own the phone without having to pay the balance off.
