Just placed the order with Best Buy for the 13 (mini), once it's ready to pickup I'll take this one out of the box and pop a T-Mobile sim in it to see what happens (curious if it'll lock to T-Mobile or if it's somehow different to the regular flex ones). Until the 13 is ready for pickup I'm leaving the 12 in the box just in case I need to return.
Edit: as expected, didn't work with the T-Mobile sim, even when it was the first one inserted. I had no issue doing a temp rsim-style unlock (mine is the plain white sim, more durable than the flimsy ones that go over another sim). Anyway, no issues trading in to Best Buy for the 13 mini. Fyi I selected that the 12 mini was locked to T-Mobile and NOT unlocked. About $400 after tax for an iPhone 13 mini (that will soon be unlocked) is a pretty good deal.

The caveat is - they do something called a "Slim lock" once you activate it; meaning - You first activate a Simple Wireless phone to Total Wireless, it is locked by them to Total Wireless, and can't be used on Simple again.
