Unlocked or t-mobile 5SE? Anyone order from Costco?

[Slammed925]

Recently switched from Metro PCS to T-Mobile and buying the fianc?e s 5SE to replace her 5S. Is there any major difference to order sim free vs the tmobile version? Tmo said they would unlock after 45 days of service. Might do carrier insurance and don't want a issue if they won't allow the unlocked for carrier. just to protect her from theft and loss and maybe Squaretrade also using a credit card for extra year protection.

Also anyone order from Costco?

There's not really a difference, unless you use T-Mobile's JUMP program or a program of theirs. If you want to buy it outright, I would rather go with the sim-free version personally. You will get WiFi calling either way, and it would be just the same. It depends on what you want to do though. If you need that carrier insurance, go with the T-Mobile one.

Thanks! Just don't want to miss out on anything by doing tmo brand. I know 6s had an extra band of LTE for att. I'd Def unlock it after 45 days just so it's done

Also how does pickup work If I reserve? Do I gave to deal with crazy lines or since already paid for easy to pickup?
