Correction about the AT&T full price/device only bought at Apple.
It is unlocked and always will be unlocked.
Even if you use the sim that's inside the phone it will be unlocked still.
Tmobile 5S
Bought from Apple store full price it is unlocked. You don't need no tmobile service to unlock it.
The rest is correct.
 
I have just spoken to T-Mobile. They lock all phones including those purchased for full price.
