“Hello, Is it sim free version? If it is not, will it be available to preorder?”

• Like all Verizon smartphones, this phone is unlocked. Luckily, Google has built in all the radio bands into this phone to allow it to be used on any carrier with proper LTE support—something that most Verizon-branded phones don't do. It is the same hardware in-and-out as the devices being sold on the Google Store. The only difference is that this Verizon version comes with a few Verizon apps (which can be uninstalled) and it also has a locked bootloader. That means that you cannot currently install custom ROMs or "root" your device. This device WILL work on other carriers, and I've tried it with only success.

• A Verizon postpaid SIM is inside the box but I activated my device on Tracfone using their own SIM. The device is not carrier locked.

• It comes pre-installed with a SIM card but can be used on other carriers. Even the one I received stated it would only accept Verizon SIM cards but I tested it with both my Verizon sim and a friend tried her AT&T SIM card in it. Worked with both fine.
