As reported yesterday, Apple has started selling unlocked, sim-free iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus phones in the U.S. Current ship times for both models are 3-5 days.
Pricing for the sim-free, unlocked iPhone 6 is $649 for the 16GB model, $749 for the 64GB model, and $849 for the 128GB model. The iPhone 6 Plus is $100 more for each model, running at $749, $849, and $949.
Apple usually sells sim-free versions of iPhones a couple months after launch, but high demand for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus most likely delayed any rollout.
Will you be picking up a sim-free, unlocked iPhone 6 or 6 Plus?

This is what I don't get. Why are they deceiving customers and being false with advertisement when carriers can help unlock the phones for free thru IMEI remote unlock? That's why these Apple guys are getting sued, but oh well I guess these are for the ignorant customer or for that one who has a lot of disposable income.
In my country it's the law, all cell phones must be sim free so I got my iPhone 6 Sim Free the day it came out and even if you get a locked one like an AT$T the Cell providers companies here will unlock it for you free of charge. So this Sim Free deal is more for America.
In your dream. This products is from us (greedy Crapple, don't even think of 1$ less when we are trying to increase the price and loot people, we know our iSheeps are ready to pay any amount for anything we produce ).
T-mobile phone, even if you buy by paying full amount. It would still be locked to tmobile and you need to get it unlocked. This one sim free as soon as you bought it. Regards
Tmobile version (if paid in full), is unlocked. I tried inserting AT&T sim and it worked.
However, the Tmobile version (A1549) supports only GSM carriers, where as the unlocked one (A1586) supports GSM and CDMA networks.
It's not true.... I bought two iPhones; one is iPhone 6 and other iPhone 6 Plus. Both can use on my AT&T network without unlocked them. T-Mobile has no iPhone for them self. All T-Mobile customers have to purchase unlocked version. That's why as soon as you get out the door u can use it on any GsM networks. I just don't understand why Apple saying selling free-sim version... All they are selling is T-Mobile version which is unlocked version or u can call it is international version.
