Will iPhone from T-Mobile work in VZW?

[recDNA]

If I buy a T- Mobile iPhone but am dissatisfied with reception can I use that phone in VZW or is it missing the CDMA radio or wrong software or something? Thanks!

Yes, it will work...provided you make sure T-Mobile unlocks the device.

Will 3G work? I am in an area with poor LTE. I've heard 3G might not work.

As kch stated as long as the T-Mobile iPhone is unlocked you will get LTE, 3G, and even 1x data speeds.

Correct you just need to make sure Tmobile unlocks the phone for you first. Verizon can put it on an account without it unlocked, but the phone will give a non compatible SIM error until it is unlocked.

It needs to be an iPhone 6 and up.
