Unlocked Phone True Meaning (slrpnk.net)

Hello everyone, I'm planning on getting a pixel 9 to put GrapheneOS on. When it comes to the right phone to buy, you need a pixel that is "unlocked," correct? Does unlocked refer to both root and carrier, or is there more than one meaning? Is there anything else I should keep in mind when buying a Pixel?

I was going to go with a refurbished one, would that be fine for security as well?

Thank you all

You could also take a look at e/os or lineage which can be installed on like up to 14 year old phones and support more than just pixel
But it might be not what you want so better inform yourself before deciding
