*~* Unlocked vs T-Mobile *~*

It seems like I should go for the unlocked and flash to T-Mobile asap.

Before I do I would love the hear any cons and pros.

I think I'm finally coming to a decision.

But what if a TMobile version opens, should I get that and flash to unlocked because I am a minimalist and would love to go as vanilla as possible. Less Bloatware.

Yeah unlocked, if need be flash the carrier version

TBH the TMo version isn't that different from what you'd get from Samsung. A handful of TMo apps is all they add now. Samsung adding Facebook irritates me more than that.

T-Mobile or any carrier boot logo irritates me the most ... I know most carrier bloat could be disabled. But I hate the boot logo and pisses me off sometimes carriers disabled certain features like Samsung find my phone etc (Verizon did that I think).

Anyways I know these are all petty things and my problem, that's why I only get unlocked model irrespective of whatever offers the carriers have. I just got used to that way for all these years. Totally understand most people don't feel this way

Don't get me wrong, I definitely prefer unlocked as well. I remember the days when I had ATT and they would disable random things like the flashlight (ATT actually did that to my HTC One M8, I mean the flashlight....why??!!??), and add all sorts of random apps I'd never need. I was just mainly saying that TMo is the least offensive about disabling things or adding tons of nonsense like Verizon and ATT sometimes do.
