I am planning to buy 2 iPhone 5s' for my parents in India. searching thru the marketplace and swappa it looks like T-Mobile iPhone 5s is the cheapest option I can get. Does anyone know if it will work in India/Internationally? or will it need to be unlocked first?

If the iPhones are unlocked and the network you plan to use the devices on are GSM then yes, they should work.

yes, i will be using the GSM network. but for some reason I thought all T-Mobile phones are always unlocked, if that's not the case, I will stay away from the T-Mobile iPhone 5s as well.
