iPhone 5, which model is yours?

[alleggerita]

Can anyone confirm that StarHub's iPhone 5 is the 'A1429' CDMA version? Because what I do know is that SingTel and M1's iPhone 5 is the 'A1429' Global GSM model. One thing to note is that my iPhone 5 is a replacement set. So I dunno if the iPhone 5s bought from StarHub brand new is it the 'A1429' Global GSM or CDMA version. Would be good to know because I want to know if my phone can roam on CDMA networks when I travel. Here's a screenshot from Geekbench on my replacement iPhone 5.

Hmm... thought Singapore Apple retail outlet & telco only carry the GSM A1429 model.

Ya, I have never heard of any iPhone, starting from 3G, in Singapore come with CDMA set. all at time in SG, iPhone is GSM

Sorry guys, I dunno how to make my picture appear. Would appreciate it if anyone can help me with it. But according to Geekbench, my iPhone 5 is a CDMA model. By CDMA, it doesn't mean it can only run on CDMA networks, it accepts GSM too. The previous iPhone 4S was a world phone that supports both CDMA and GSM. Same for the 'A1429' CDMA iPhone 5. I would just like to know is StarHub the only one selling CDMA iPhone 5 and are the iPhone 5 from SingTel and M1 the 'A1429' GSM-only model.

My sis' reads MD662ZA - Black iPhone 5 (64GB). GSM Model, Singtel set.

After reading Apple's support site, I would think that there are only 2 model of iPhone 5 in production... I could be wrong.

1) A1428 - GSM (With LTE band 4 & 17)

2) A1429 - GSM & CDMA (With LTE Band 1, 3, 5, 13 and 25)

Refer : Identifying iPhone models

So, likely the A1429 supports both GSM & CDMA network like 4S..

Is there physical diff or just software side?

There wouldn't be any physical diff nor the software.

As far as I know, non-local set wouldn't be able to claim warranty here..

Same as mine, MZ663ZA.. btw, under the same menu where u see the model, scroll down and under advertising, u can turn on to limit tracking.

Smart... A1429 is a "World Phone" as per marketed in 4S (put aside the 4G LTE bands issue with diff countries). Since our Singapore sets are unlocked set, it means our iPhone 5 can be use in any country that supports GSM and/or CDMA, as long as the service is available (either thru roaming or other means such as local plan sign-up).

With AppleCare*, you can.
