Apple will start selling fully unlocked, SIM-free iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus smartphones in United States beginning tomorrow, according to 9to5Mac. 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.
