The Apple iOS is designed in such a way that all applications with the push facility should request the Apple APNS servers for a token that identifies the device. The application requesting APNS token will be jammed in unlocked iPhone models. So they usually not support push notifications. Unlocked models have less battery life and produce more heat than the officially activated models.
