Apple will start selling fully unlocked, SIM-free iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus smartphones in United States.
Several sources tell the site that the unlocked phones will be available online and in retail stores.
Currently, Apple sells the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus in the U.S. either via a carrier contract or unlocked on T-Mobile. Tomorrow’s change means that Apple will sell the latest iPhone models with no SIM-card so that customers can use the phone anywhere in the world on any supported carrier by bringing along their own SIM-card.
The pricing of the device should line up with the unlocked T-Mobile iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. That starts at $649 for the iPhone 6 and $749 for the iPhone 6 Plus.
Typically, Apple starts selling a SIM-free version of its iPhone a couple months following its release; however, the high demand for the iPhone 6 likely delayed its SIM-free availability until now.
