Yesterday we heard reports that Sprint will offer the iPhone 5 and now comes a report that T-Mobile will also offer Apple's iPhone 5. MacTrast reports they have an informant that tells them T-Mobile USA will offer the iPhone 5 in October.
Rumors suggest the iPhone 5 will be a dual-mode GSM and CDMA phone. If these rumors true, every major US carrier will finally offer the iPhone.
Following our report yesterday that Apple’s upcoming iPhone 5 will be arriving on the Sprint network, a contact within T-Mobile who claims to have been briefed on the matter has informed us that, in addition to arriving on Sprint at launch, the iPhone 5 will arrive on T-Mobile’s network at launch as well.
The informant, who requested to remain anonymous, went on to claim that the iPhone 5 would also operate at 3G speeds on T-Mobile US network. Current unlocked iPhone 4 units can only operate at at 2G “edge” speeds on T-Mobile’s network, and lack certain network-dependent features, such as Visual Voicemail.
