On eBay someone is selling Oneplus 7 Pro GM1910 (china version) but they state that it is T-Mobile unlocked.
Does this mean it is just a chinese model with international-ROM installed?
Will this work on USA GSM mobile carriers?
Will I have any trouble with bootloader unlocking/custom recovery/custom ROMS which I would not have?
Is there any downside of this GM1910 (china version) over the normal Oneplus 7 Pro?
Thanks in advance for the help.

I'd steer clear of it.
If it's a T-Mobile phone, there's a good chance that it's blacklisted due to an outstanding balance on the phone.
Another red flag :
Why doesn't the seller just sell the phone in the same condition (with the original firmware), regardless of which model it is?
If anything, they could offer to flash whatever firmware you'd like.
Guessing the price is too good to be true, but, if you're willing to take your chances, good luck.
Why not give Swappa a shot? You can ask the sellers directly any questions you'd like & I bet if you made a fair & reasonable offer, you'd get a better experience that whatever that deal is you presented here.

T-Mobile version is a 1915, the US unlocked version is a 1917.
Stay clear of anything that is not a US version if you are in the US.
While it may work, you will not be able to resell the device to a Verizon user because a 1910 will not work on Verizon.
My G1913(UK) works great in the US, full LTE speeds and VOLTE.

The 5g model will be a different model coming later,you can only get the standard 7 pro
From OnePlus website from next week or select carriers depending where you are,
In terms of region you will get the correct model depending on the online store you buy from
Eg OnePlus UK online store on the OnePlus website

No.
The hardware is different not just the software.
Some LTE bands are different.
The phone will always be a 1910.

As stated in that article "This method will not provide you with a T-Mobile SIM unlock."
If you want it sim unlocked you need to contact T-Mobile.

Not that I know of, but you can read/ask here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/t-mobile-bootloader-unlock.4181339/
I would recommend buying a non locked version though. Especially if you live in the eu.

Yes, would suggest buying unlocked Tmob variant unless the post above can do it. But you cant be sure until you get your phone. So..

You should be able to install any of them, as long as the model number is the same.
