The easiest way is to try and put a SIM card from a different service provider in your phone to see if it will accept it. If you get a message saying wrong card, enter subsidy code or SIM disabled then likely it's locked. For CDMA phones it's a little more difficult to tell.
By unlocking your phone you have the freedom of using your phone with other network providers as well as saving tons of money using a pay as you go card when visiting other countries.
