SIM Free phone

I'm purchasing a new phone and I am currently with verizon but I just want to swap out my SIM card. Do I order a SIM free phone or Verizon and just swap out the card? Thanks.

Get the SIM-Free iPhone just to be sure. The Verizon version could be sim-locked to Verizon. Even if you are already with Verizon, it's not guaranteed that your current SIM will work with your new iPhone. It shouldn't really matter but still the SIM-free one is the safer option.
