iPhone 5 is also 32 bit that might cause serious issues as Apps and iOS are not being updated.

I have one of the originally released iPhone 5. When I switched to T-Mobile they told me that my phone was not able to run on the current LTE towers and I'd have crappy reception. I only ever get 2 bars.
I'm really an Android chick so I only use an iPhone for work (hey they give it to me for free, which is why I have an old iphone 5 laying around). But I ordered an iPhone 5c which I know supports LTE and was the cheapest newer iPhone I could get to test out CarBridge. If it works great. If not, then the new 5c goes back. |
You
switched to TMobile. The iPhone 5 had LTE but not EVERY Carriers LTE Bands. So switching to TMobile from another carrier was why you could not get TMobile LTE in your phone. Your iPhone had LTE, just not the TMobile version of LTE.
In fact, that's still true today. Not all Smartphones have the others full working frequencies.
It will be EVEN WORSE with 5G as each carriers plans are VERY DIFFERENT.
