Q: When will Apple finally release iPhone 7 unlocked
I'm from outside the US and I want to know when will apple sell the iPhone 7 (& plus) sim free/ unlocked so that I can use where I live. If there is another option (other than that) please tell me what can be done so that I can buy mine soon. Thank you!

All iPhones 7 currently being offered by Apple are unlocked if you pay full price for them.
They are not sim free, since they come with a sim for a selected carrier, but are entirely unlocked, and can be used with other compatible GSM carriers.
The easiest option is to choose T-Mobile as your carrier. Then simply remove the Sim card from the iPhone when it arrives.
Note that Warranty is not international. So if anything happens to the iPhone that needs service it will have to be taken back to the country of purchase for warranty service.
