LG V20 Unlocked (US996) vs TMobile LG V20?

LG and BH Photo both say it will work on Sprint.

I assume the unlocked model will get OS updates quicker as well. Due to the fact it's a straight LG phone and has no carrier to rely on.

So it's been 100% confirmed that the unlocked USA version is inoperable under T-Mobile?

BH Photo says no such thing. Where does LG say the US996 will work on Sprint? It's missing the same bands as the LG G5 unlocked version which was never allowed on Sprint.

So how well will the unlocked version of the v20 work on T-mobile?

Lg V20 unlocked (US996) with T-Mobile

It is my understanding that the 996 does not support wifi calling with T-Mobile nor can tmo send any updates to the phone.......

yeah so based on what I was reading.. it looks like the US996 is not the "CATCH ALL" phone.. so i went with the H918 so that I could have the best chance of all the radio's and features working with T-Mobile service. So far i'm so glad I did!
