I'm surprised i'm having so much trouble finding info on China's version of the iphone 4 (the GSM version) on google. I'm trying to find out their frequencies they use.

Anyone know if they're compatible with AT&T and T-Mobile? Also with T-Mobile's HSPA+/4G?

Thanks!

If its a GSM iphone and if its unlocked it will work with any gsm sim.
Only way to really know is try it I guess.

Yeah i figured... just wondering if it'll get 3g and possibly 4g frequencies though.

GSM 3G/4G all iPhone 5's are world phones.
LTE: China version will not work on US/Can at LTE speed.

This doesn't list China, but I would assume the bottom one.

I know that one of the Chinese iPhones didn't support Wi-Fi but I'm not sure which model it was. It'd pay to double-check.

Yeah, not too concerned about not being able to use LTE. Wondering if HSPA+ on t-mobile will work though (i think they were adding the 1900 mhz frequency for that to work with iphone's, IIRC).
 
Yes but NO SOY SAUCE! :D

Only the U.S. has the chutzpah to make something nobody else can use.
