What to know before you sell a locked iPhone 16e

Can I sell a locked iPhone 16e?
It depends on the lock. Carrier-locked devices are bought. Activation Lock (iCloud) and MDM locks must be cleared first, because an iPhone 16e still tied to an account or an organization cannot be reset for its next owner. We never unlock devices for anyone except the owner.
