I just ordered an unlocked AT&T Nokia Lumia 1520 so I was wondering will it good on T-Mobile? I don't have enough money to buy a 1520.3

If you are in the refarmed area you will get good data speeds and LTE on this model. Good luck.

Thank you. How can you tell if your town is in the refarmed network?

​You will also get good data speeds and LTE if you aren't in a re-farmed area.
​just dial ##3282#, enter the field test menu, go to settings, and in the band selection menu make sure the band IV WCDMA box is checked.
​once you do that, it has the exact same radio support as the 1520.3.

The ONLY thing you lose with the AT&T 1520 is Qi wireless charging, and you're at the mercy of AT&T for updates.

Awesome. Thank you. They basically neutered it.

Your frequency matching should be complete with the above trick... You also lose WiFi Calling. That App will only download to T-Mo branded phones.
