I just got my 32GB Black/Gray iPhone 5S replaced at an Apple Store. The old phone was an AT&T version, the model number was ME308LL/A. The new one I just got is NE299LL/A, I could not find this model number anywhere on the website.

I got a list of iPhone 5S model number online and there is no NE299LL/A. Does anyone have any idea if it is unlocked or not?

Dirty Slimy REFURB!!!

Time to go cray cray!!

(Kidding. Sorta. They have refurbs in the stream already folks, especially for Space Gray... All thanks to the launch day debacle of "we know you'll take it anyway even though you're a girl and want a goldy one :p")

They slap a new shell on it, and voila! Swap phones! Congratulations :)?

Are you sure it is a refurb one?
 
I had a 5S replaced for a defective oleophobic coating and the Genius Bar gave me a white box replacement. It too had the NE instead of ME. I assumed it is to designate its a replacement part and not a retail sold unit.
 
There is NE,ND and I think one more combo of two letters.

Not 100% refurb, It also differentiates devices between Original/Replacement.

Sometimes they can be refurbished units, other times they are brand new but modeled like that as they are a "White box" replacement units (not packaged with accessories etc) and not for retail sale - only to be issued as a replacement device.
 
Good job

Anybody found the unlocked model numbers yet?
 
They all could be locked or unlocked. The lock is applied when the phone details are entered by the Genius for the swap. It will match the phone it is replacing.
