Iphone 5s t-mobile is an unlocked iphone?

I bought an iphone 5s t-mobile that i will be using in MEA region, I would like to be sure that it is an unlocked iphone.

Only if you purchased from an Apple retail store
Only Apple sells officially unlocked iPhones in the US, & the T-Mobile labeled iPhone is officially unlocked if putchased from Apple.

  • Can I use boost mobile with my unlocked iPhone 5

    Can I use boost mobile with my unlocked iPhone 5

    No.  Boost is a CDMA carrier, using the Sprint network and is not compatable with unlocked iPhone 5.

    No, it can't. Only the carrier it's locked to can do so, and Boost Mobile doesn't offer this.

  • Is iPhone 5S T-mobile version full unlocked?

    In the purchase page says that it's a free contract phone, and you can travel and use any SIM but, can I take the T-mobile SIM out and put any other SIM from the beginning?
    Thanks.

    Contract free does NOT equal unlocked.
    A US sold iPhone will not work on LTE outside the US.
    Warranty and support are limited to the country of origin.

  • IPhone 5s (GSM) T-Mobile, is it unlocked to any GSM network?

    I have read alot in the forum about the iphone 5s t-mobile contract free version, and I understood that it's not labeled unlocked for business reasons. But I want to make sure that if I bought it, I will still be able to use it with another GSM network (I live in lebanon).

    Then why does the iphone 5c and all the previous iphones have 2 options: t-mobile unlocked or sim-free in the apple store, unlike the iphone 5s which only has one option? (thanks in advance, but I dont want to buy the phone and hit the wall, just like what happened to me with the iphone 4)

  • Planet 3 mobile internet on unlocked iphone?

    I have a miniSIM and im recieving and sending calls/texts perfectly fine on 3 $29 cap + 700mb(or so?) data with my iphone 4S.
    Im not sure how to connect to planet 3 to access the free social networking, news, etc, and also my mobile internet. On other phones I there was a dropdown list, with MMS, mobile internet, planet 3 and wifi to choose from but I cant seem to find it on here.
    Thanks.

    Virgin mobile is a supported carrier in Canada. They are NOT supported in the U.K. I'm not saying it won't work, but if you're in the U.K. You'll need to contact them for assistance setting it up.

    Hi everyone, I know this is a very vexing issue for those who have shelled out their hard earned money. This is the info I have been able to glean about getting a factory unlocked iPhone.
    (1) Like one member here already pointed out, if you buy the iPhone from a T-Mobile STORE, FULL PRICE, it still comes locked. I was told by an employee that you have to use T-Mobile service for a minimum of 45 days before calling customer support to have it unlocked. This is also true if your contract runs out. I did it with AT&T for my iPhone 5. At the end of my contract, I called AT&T and told them to unlock it and they did.
    (2) If you buy the iPhone FULL PRICE from Apple (Store or pre-order), it comes UNLOCKED. This info used to accompany the iPhone 5 and maybe 5S in the store, but it is not there with the iPhone 6. It has been moved to
    http://www.apple.com/support
    Select iPhone from the product list. Next select "iPhone Essentials" and then clicking/tapping on the third link on the right as shown below
    Activating iPhone with your carrier
    will bring you to this info I have pasted below. Mohamed, I don't see Egypt on the list but you can sell your iPhone if you didn't pre-order it from the Apple Store and then pre-order in one of these countries on the list. HOPE THIS HELPS

    Apple Online Store sells unlocked iPhone in the following countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium (French, Dutch), Brazil, Canada (English, French), China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong (English, Chinese), Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (French, German), Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and United States.

  • How to unlock my iphone 4s t mobile

    I have just bought an Iphone 4s from a friend.
    It is locked to t mobile and I would like to unlock it, I phoned t mobile twice and one person said that they do it for around 15pound whereas another lady said they'll do it for free but they need the original number it was bought with (I don't have that).
    So I am a little bit confused, what should I do?

    Only T-mobile can authorize unlocking, so you'll have to work with them. Many carriers will unlock only for the person with whom they had the contract, so you may need to have your friend call them and set up the unlock.
    Regards.

  • Will unlocked T-mobile IPhone 6 work in HongKong or China?

    I'm thinking about buying a Iphone 6 plus T-mobile contract free version.
    I'm think about traveling back to China and HongKong later in the year, will the phone work there?

    Some purchasers have reported that the contract free T-Mobile version is unlocked. However, this comes with caveats. The warranty is only good in the US, and it would not work with LTE bands outside of the US.

  • Does the iPhone 5s T-Mobile come Unlocked? Can I use a different carrier immediately?

  • Can I use a T-Mobile contract-free iPhone 6 in any country with any SIM Card carrier?

    I'm from Uruguay and I want to buy an iPhone 6 contract free from T-Mobile. My doubt is if I'll be able to use it in my country with a local carrier. In other words, is a factory unlocked iPhone? Which is the difference between a unlock iPhone and a Contract-Free T-Mobile iPhone?

    Hey Nicolas,
    I had the same question, so I went to the Apple chat, and I asked the same, 'cause I need an iPhone to works in South America and Europe as well.
    so what the person on the chat  answered me was that the T-mobile cellphone comes Unlocked, so you can use it anywhere.
    I Guess I can get it and now.

    From FCC page you referenced:
    Participating wireless service providers will implement three of these standards by May 11, 2014, and all of these standards by February 11, 2015.
    Maybe better luck after 2/11/15?
    ir also says it is voluntary. 

  • Can i use iPhone T-mobile contract free version outside USA with any carrier?

    Hello everyone,
    I am planning to purchase the iPhone 6 via Apple online store, on or after september 19th.
    I am living in Sri Lanka and obviously we do not have AT&T or any other service providers listed, here. My only option would be to buy the T-mobile 'contract-free' version if I am not willing to wait till Apple releases an unlocked 'sim-free' version within next few months. Therefor, I want to confirm and make sure that I can use the iPhone T-Mobile version with any carrier of my choice and is not locked only for T-mobile and can be used here in Sri Lanka.
    Hoping for your kind support
    Regards,
    Nimasha
