T-Mobile working on launch plans for iPhone 5?

iPhone 4 300x225 T Mobile working on launch plans for iPhone 5?

Reports are coming in that T-Mobile is probably on their way to prepping of the iPhone 5 unveiling, likely for this October (which just so happens to clash with the timeline we heard before where Apple was considering for launch).

If Sprint iPhone 5 speculations are to be believed, along with previous reports of iPhone test units running on T-Mobile, we could end the wait and see Apple’s devices on all four major US network carriers this year.

While also a GSM/HSPA/HSPA+ network, T-Mobile on iPhone 5 would have to support on AWS (Advanced Wireless Services, which powered in the 1700 and 2100 bands), a very different set of 3G frequencies than AT&T. Whether or not Apple could merge all those frequencies into one GSM iPhone 5 antenna array, we just don’t have to point out a single CDMA/GSM “world phone” that could work on Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, and T-Mobile, although it is the question.

AT&T is also into the operation of trying to snap T-Mobile US, in part to use their AWS spectrum to increase AT&T’s own LTE 4G rollout.

How, if at all, that would affect an AWS iPhone 4 is still remains to be seen. Meanwhile, Canadian carriers Moblicity, Wind, and Videotron use the same 3G bands as T-Mobile US, so an AWS-compatible iPhone 5 would still have some not that open international appeal.

    Its a great thing/ maybe it’ll shut the door on the galaxy s2 being the best and start other manufacturers moving in the right direction.
    I heard a conversation on NPR RADIO from a guy that is a SAMSUNG rep and his main phone is an Iphone, Imagine that- he can have the best from his company but chooses to use an I phone for his personal use, this can be verified – it was on NPR on Thursday or Friday in the PM while I was driving – they where discussing Jobs decision to step down from Apple due to health reasons. – but commented on his influence and guidance over Apples improvements through the years. Iphones have the easiest APPS to use and do exactly what they say. Giving the user and experience and not just a piece of technology to figure out on your own !
