GSM vs CDMA

VZW only wants to sell phones tied to an account. Also, say 150k orders of the VZW iPhone but only 75k tied to an account...reduces the metrics for VZW.
The GSM phone is an inferior product (with an inferior Intel modem). You want the CDMA phone with the Qualcomm modem.
Honestly the GSM version is iPhone 7 minus. Can't believe Apple is screwing with people this way over a few dollars. This is going to be 10x worse than Samsung vs TSMC.

Isnt cdma used only in a couple places around the world with Verizon and sprint being the big two? I guess this could affect resale value in the USA or be a problem if you plan on switching from a gsm provider to a cdma provider. Most of the rest of the world uses gsm so the phone without cdma shouldn't be a problem to most of us unless you plan on switching.
CDMA, as implemented. Apple never put an additional CDMA radio in their phones.

The sim free model is unlocked, and all carriers will accept it. In the past, carriers like Verizon wouldn't accept a phone that was initially sold to ATT, even if unlocked and CDMA compatible.
I don't know how a fully paid off Verizon iPhone 7 would work with Sprint, for example. What is Sprint's current policy. Or vice versa. If the CDMA portion causes issue, the SIM free model would be better.
I was on with apple for about an hour asking how to purchase the phone that will work with all networks. After being put on hold numerous times while the rep questioned her superiors she told me that they request carrier info to set up the phone for you when you receive it, but...if you order the upgrade plan from the Apple Store site only and pay cash you will receive the Verizon type phone set up for ATT in my case...I told her over and over that it states ATT GSM on the order...she stuck to her story so I ordered it with the plan to return it if it isn't what I want...
What are you talking about? Apple's own tech specs state that all GSM carrier bands and frequencies are supported on the CDMA iPhone 7. I know from personal experience having had both AT&T and Verizon at the same time for the iPhone 6 and 6S. I swapped SIM cards regularly and they both worked with both networks. The only thing with the 6S was lack of Band 30 support on the Verizon model, but it otherwise worked fine on AT&T and T-Mobile, and around the world.
The Verizon iPhone 7/7+ works with everything, the only question is after how long (or ever) will Sprint activate a Verizon phone on its network. And vice versa, will a Sprint 7/7+ work on Verizon or is it locked for a certain period of time.
Too early to tell, we'll likely need to wait until launch about Sprint.

After reading through all these threads with conflicting information and recommendations, a wise person will disregard the information on this thread and do their own research through Apple. This thread is officially worthless.

There is a lot of info in this thread for sure and it's confusing.
I ordered the $869 black 1661, Verizon 7 plus 128gb and I will put my AT&T sim card in it immediately to use on AT&T. If for some reason I have a problem doing that, I will return it and get the sim free model whenever they offer it.
I really believe that this 1661 Verizon model will be the sim free model. I was told that by several other Verizon reps too, but I'm actually going with my gut feeling on this.
Today I called Verizon to see if I can get in on the Verizon trade in promo. Some people on here said that I would not get it because I'm on the $29.99 unlimited data plan still and not the recently increased $49.99 plan. In other words I didn't have the $20 increase in the Verizon unlimited data plan. Guess what, the csr did the $650 DPP upgrade for me!
Maybe it's the luck of the draw or maybe they will kick me out of the DPP before I get started. Who knows, but I made the decision myself and will handle it if I'm wrong.
Also, I still appreciate all of the info here so thanks everyone.

So how does one buy one of these w/o already being a Verizon customer? I am thinking about switching to Verizon but haven't decided yet, but would still like a phone that gives me the option.
SIM free is coming, but is it eligible for IUP?
TIA
You have no idea how wrong you are. Apple would gladly have all phones unlocked, supporting all of the LTE frequencies - it's the carriers that want to preserve sim locking and physical sims. Lots of negotiations over how sim free is going to work without the carriers losing their ability to keep you by the short hairs.
To the comment that "LTE is in its infancy" - umm. Sorry, no, it's already well rolled out across North America and much of the world. LTE Advanced is now being rolled out in the metro centres (much higher speeds, etc).
Do NOT buy a damn CDMA phone! Not unless you live in a rural area that that's the only signal you get at home. CDMA is all but dead. If you buy a CDMA/LTE phone you will have inferior battery life to those who didn't saddle themselves with it (as it'll still look for a CDMA network to land on every so often).
As long as you're getting an unlocked phone (from either AT&T or T-mobile or better yet - the Apple Store), you really should be fine.

Not true at all. I use a Verizon iPhone 6s Plus on AT&T every day and my battery life is stellar.

You can purchase it outright online if you're a VZ customer. I'm not a customer, but I want a CDMA unlocked phone. I haven't been able to get an answer on this from Apple about buying one outright and have it unlocked, but I'm going to try to do so from an Apple store. If they don't know, I'll just buy it and put my T-Mobile sim in the phone. If it doesn't work, I'll return it. I find it amazing that one has to go through such lengths to buy a phone outright.
Then again, I wonder if it makes a big difference if one gets an unlocked GSM phone instead of CDMA. Is it a big deal as far as traveling overseas and not being able to use a CDMA carrier? I'm under the impression that there are very few CDMA carriers outside the US. And I have no intention of ever going with any of the CDMA carriers in the US.
The polling interval could be insignificant enough to not merit a significant difference - AT&T could also be disabling the CDMA radio when they push down their carrier settings.
(Historically CDMA radios were much harder on battery life than GSM/TDMA).
Really, the only benefit to CDMA radios anymore is if you're in rural areas where that's the coverage that's available.
That IS also true of China (so anyone traveling extensively to China - China Mobile's proprietary TS-CDMA network will only be supported by the Verizon/Sprint iPhone). But, again, that's only for rural areas. Major cities will have LTE coverage.
From what I've read, CDMA model uses Qualcomm chip and GSM model uses Intel. Going with the Intel chip is supposedly cheaper.In other words, buy the Verizon version. It works with everything.
Nit pik: I thought we were past having different model phones tied to carriers... especially with no subsidized deals anymore.I wonder why Apple would bother to make separate phone guts anymore when one could cover all bases?

As far as underlying technology is concerned, the CDMA iPhone 7/7+ models have CDMA, GSM and LTE. GSM iPhone 7/7+ models have GSM and LTE.
When the SIM-free iPhone is released, it will probably be the same model as the CDMA (Verizon/Sprint) version. Only advantage of SIM-free is it's whitelisted on both Verizon's and Sprint's networks.
Why did they leave off AT&T for the U.S. is what I want to know? It says Cricket which is AT&T correct?
I ordered the Verizon 1661 to use on both AT&T and Verizon, but I'm curious.
Yep, Cricket is AT&T. You'd have to ask the bean counters at Apple for the answer to that question.
My guess, Apple ships very few Cricket iPhones that they didn't bother using the GSM SKU for that. Meanwhile, the millions of iPhones sold through AT&T and T-Mobile would represent significant savings in unnecessary hardware/licensing/patent fees.
I think they forgot to put AT&T on the list. AT&T LTE bands are 2, 4, 5 and 17 which are on the list, so you're good to go with the A1661 I'll be doing the same Unlocked model to be fully covered and can resell it to anyone.

My post has strictly Apple-sourced information with links. I included them so as to have people read from the source.
Either trolling or blissfully obstinate. Either way: for other folks reading, please see above.
I called the Apple Store and they told me that if you order and pay total price from their internet store you get the unlocked model that they offer on the upgrade offer no matter your service...it will be setup for your current service...hope this is the case...what do you think?

Haha, you are so wrong. CDMA has nothing to do with rural vs urbal. AT&T has far superior rural coverage to Sprint, yet they are GSM. Your CDMA radio also isn't active if you are using it on a GSM network, it simply has support for CDMA if you use a CDMA SIM.
A CDMA iPhone simply allows you to switch your carrier to Verizon or Sprint down the road and keep your phone.
No phones have band 66 yet, neither does the GSM iPhone.
You are correct that no iPhone 7's have support for Band 66. I didn't mean to imply that it was just the CDMA version.
As for other brands of phones. I'm not interested in them. I am wondering why Apple didn't/wouldn't include it?
If you are going to reply, I think it's best to reply here. EDIT: I see that you already did
VZW is giving me $650 for my iPhone 6 to go towards an iPhone 7. They were also giving $400 for a 5S. Indeed, a steal.
