Apple’s SIM-free versions of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are finally here.
The iPhone 6 without a SIM card—an unlocked iPhone 6—allows users to activate their devices on the carrier of their choice, AT&T, Sprint, Verizon or T-Mobile, 9to5Mac reported Tuesday. Apple normally releases unlocked versions of the latest iPhone a few months after launch, but the iPhone 6’s unlocked version was delayed, presumably due to high demand for the devices.
