    I've read contradicting statements about this and i'm wondering if buying a phone from say, three and unlocking it to use on a different network will void the warranty should there be any issues with the phone needing repair? The manufacturers 1-2 year warranty

    It shouldn't really make an odds unless you've flashed it. If it goes for repair it will be reclocked when it comes back.
