I am happy to announce that TLS 1.3 is already mandatory to support for all uses of TLS in 3GPP 5G (and also LTE, 3G systems that are updated to the latest release). Release 15 makes TLS 1.3 mandatory for networks and Release 16 makes TLS 1.3 mandatory also for MEs (i.e. mobile phones) while removing support for TLS 1.1.

Cheers,
John
