Can an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S II work on t-mobile?

[amazingjay]

I have a tmobile sim card and I'm wondering if Galaxy S2 can work on tmobile. If not, how about boost mobile (so I can easily buy a disposable sim card).

yes it should (on t-mobile)... it has the bands for it

Well, I don't think you can get 3G/4G internet speeds with T-mobile as they use 1700/2100 MHz AWS for higher internet speeds.

So what service providers are able to give the Galaxy S2 the 3G/4G internet speed?

That's the million dollar question...
Latest rumors say that it'll be released this month end or start of August. That's for AT&T, Verizon and Sprint.
There is a GS2 variant with 4.5" screen(Samsung Hercules) coming to T-mobile on Sept 26th.

I was gonna go with G2x too... but the Super AMOLED+ and the new touchwiz is just amazing

bought a GSII in France two weeks ago at Darty, brought it back, popped a T-Mobile SIM in it, and it worked. Data is very slow on T-Mobile however, and Google Voice, Navigation, etc. are therefore somewhat unstable. On AT&T now, phone feels 2x faster, and Google Voice works perfectly now. Hope this helps.

only if you get a Galaxy S II T989 (t-mobile version) unlocked. The international i9100 doensn't work with t-mobile's 4G speeds.

I have the t989 unlocked and I"m using it with T-Mobile currently.

If you want to use a GSII on T-Mobile, why not use their variant?
