For the first time ever, the iPhone will be available on the T-Mobile wireless network.

The carrier confirmed it will start carrying the iPhone 5 during an event in New York Tuesday. Under its new no-contract plans starting April 12, USA Today reported. The Simple Choice plan drops two-year contracts for subsidized mobile devices in favor of wireless plans and full-price phones paid over installments, rather than upfront.

"This is an important day for people who love their iPhone but can't stand the pain other carriers put them through to own one," John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile USA said in a statement.

The iPhone 5 can be preordered through T-Mobile starting April 5.

The iPhone 5 will sell for $99.99 down, plus $20 a month for 24 months, according to USA Today. T-Mobile will also carry the iPhone 4S for $69.99 down and $20 monthly for two years. The iPhone 4 will go for $14.99 down and $15 a month.

This move could help popularize the Iphone even more than it already is. Apples collection of Iphones  sold over 250 million units since its debut in 2007.

The Iphone is a part of T-Mobile's new smartphone plan, where users pay the full price of of a phone over two years, rather than up front. The users are not under contract.

Plans start at $50 a month for 500MB of 4G data, plus unlimited talk and text. Consumers can also choose a 2 GB plan for $60 monthly or unlimited 4G for $70 a month.

T-Mobile also announced the expansion of its 4G LTE network. The company will expand to Baltimore, Houston, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Phoenix, San Jose, and Washington, D.C.  T-Mobile said more than 100 million Americans will have access to the 4G network by mid-year, and reach 200 million by the end of the year.
