iPhone 5c and 5s Sim Card Specs.

What kind of SIM card do I need?

Whether you are starting a new service contract, using your existing one or choosing Pay as you go, you need a compatible SIM. For iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s you need a nano-SIM card.

Models I think may apply to UK

Model A1457*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20)

Model A1530*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20); TD-LTE (Bands 38, 39, 40)

I believe O2 use band 20 and the latter model (A1530) is better suited to Europe as it supports TD-LTE which may be in use in Sweden

Does these new phones support O2's LTE? That's the main question here.

perksie confirmed that O2's LTE frequency is there...just Apple forgot (or something went wrong) to add them. 

Looks like Model A1533 (USA) is the model to get, since it also supports O2's LTE band and most bands in America. Shame the iPhones that will sell here in the UK will not share the same bands.

Which of the 2 is most appealing to you guys?
