Will my current iPhone 5 factory unlocked from Apple support T-Mobile's 4G LTE when T-Mobile launches the iPhone on April 14th?

Okay so it has been announced that T-Mobile will be selling the iPhone 5 and it will also support their 4G LTE networks. My question is, if I bought a factory unlocked iPhone 5 from the Apple store (2 weeks ago) will it support the 4G LTE T-Mobile networks? Or will be stuck with the insoncistant 3G and Edge speeds? I have the A1428 model.

For more information, see:

Articles have indicated that eventually the Apple Stores will sell a single model that will work on both T-Mobile's and AT&T's networks, but how soon that will happen is unknown.
Regards.

All products come with factory unlocked from apple store ?

Hello i want to ask if i buy ipad or iphone from apple store this products come wtih factory unlocked and can i use all gsm carriers ?

To the best of my knowledge, all iPads sold directly from Apple are unlocked. The only caveat would be if you intend to puchase in the US; if so, you'll need to make sure you purchase the GSM (AT&T) model, not the one intended for use on Verizon's network.

Also, there are no longer pictures associated with each contact.

Only on a supported GSM carrier.
Will there be networks I cant use?
Yes. CDMA networks.
As I understand it the 4S supports GSM and CDMA networks worldwide.
No, you've misunderstood. The GSM iPhone you can buy in Ireland supports GSM networks only i.e. AT&T

If I buy an iPhone 5s unlocked from a USA apple store will it work in the UK

If I buy an iPhone 5s unlocked from a USA apple store will it work in the UK

Only if it is unlocked, and they are not selling the unlocked iPhone at the Apple store yet.
EDIT: I'm sorry, I missed that you referred to iPhone 5S. There should be an unlocked 5S, and it could work in Malaysia, but probably not with all of the bands there. Also, the warranty for the device is good only in the US.

Only the original cellular provider can authorize unlocking. You will need to contact them to determine if they offer unlocking and if the phone qualifies.

Thanks

Only AT&T is authorized to unlock the phone but you will have to meet their requirements, generally you would need to have service with them prior to them agreeing to unlock your phone.
Return the phone if you can and see if the Apple store is selling any unlock ones.
As of right now you won't be able to use the phone unless you activate it thru AT&T.

If it was officially unlocked by AT&T, it will remain unlocked during an upgrade of the iOS. If it was hacked to provide unlocking, it will most likely lock to the original carrier.

Iphone 5 unlocked from dubai will it work in india

iphone 5 unlocked from dubai will it work in india

If officially unlocked, yes. Be careful, many of the electronics stores there sell hacked iPhones. All iPhones, from official sources in Dubai, have had FaceTime permanently removed...required by law, with no way to add it back. So, if you want FaceTime, don't purchase there.
