Just over a month after the iPhone X debuted, Apple is now selling carrier-agnostic models of the iPhone X. US customers can place orders on Apple’s website for SIM-free iPhone Xs, rather than ordering a device that’s already married to a specific carrier.

Previously, the iPhone X could only be purchased on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, or Verizon networks, but the unlocked option allows users to insert any SIM card they want. The iPhone X supports GSM and CDMA networks, so users can get on nearly any network they want with a SIM card.

The high price tag of the iPhone X remains for the unlocked models: a 64GB device costs $ 999 while the 256GB model costs $ 1,149. Carriers offer the option to pay the price of the smartphone in monthly installments, but those options aren’t available when you buy a SIM-free iPhone X. However, Apple does offer its 24-month special financing program for specific credit card customers.
