I love the idea of a dual SIM phone, the ability to mix and match SIM cards attached to different plans has great possibilities with the range of plans available, it also offers business users the opportunity to run their work SIM and personal SIM in the phone at the same time.
im waiting to buy thsi
bought a cherry mobile duel sim in Manilla in march still going like a rocket 2g zte chassis i believe….28 bucks have retired n95 8 gig ………a cracker!
don’t buy, it restarts several times a day
Now a days there r so many
dual sim mobile phones in the market.Everyone is confused. I hope this phone is upto our expectations.
What the deuce?
I see what you did there.
Pointless IMO.
Multiple Sims for different plans? I remember back in the day when you’d have a prepaid sim for call minutes, and one for messaging, but these days with the amount of unlimited calls/SMS and massive data allowance its unnecessary.
business number, personal number. lots of people do that
“The Deuce” really why not just call it the turd. never mind i need to go take a Deuce had a lot of chilli for lunch
Great idea, but not the phone to do it on, low specs, android 2.2 and it seems looking at the pic that the 2nd sim is 2g only, no dual 3g support.
I would love to see a high end phone (nexus type high) with a dual SIM, would be great for work.
agree…. would have been nice if the galax nexus came out dual sim!
Dick Smith has sold this for around 6 weeks
Android 2.2 *sigh*
Low spec phones and tablets coming out of China mean that there’s no foreseeable end to fragmentation.
