Apple will today, January 7, 2015, begin the sale of unlocked iPhone 6 and 6 Plus in the U.S months after launching the devices.

Apple has kick started the sale of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus without SIMs, completely unlocked in the U.S., according to Mark Gurman of 9to5Mac.

The latest SIM-free version of the iPhone has been available in the stores of other countries before now, but a debut stateside would be the first time it's officially unlocked and without any carrier ties or SIM since its launch last year.

The T-Mobile version of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus is not locked into any specific contract, and will work with SIMs from other carriers, but the latest flagship smartphone from Apple still technically can’t be bought SIM-free through official channels in the U.S.

Gurman also says that the pricing will not change, meaning the iPhone 6 will range from $649 to $849 depending on storage choices, and the iPhone 6 Plus will go from $749 to $949 unlocked and SIM free. Storage options with this generation include 16, 64 and 128GB options, as Apple dropped the 32GB tier and began offering the new top of the range with its newest, larger screen phones.
