Hi,

I currently have a Nokia smart 'phone provided for me by my work and whilst it allows me personal use that I repay, it blocks all access to the internet, apps, etc.

I'm not a fan of running two separate 'phones but that maybe my only option if I can't find a decent dual SIM model on which I can set up a private contract.

Problem is, that whilst there seem to be a few around, including the Samsung Galaxy 6, when you nip into the usual places to find out about availability, you get a "we don't do dual SIM models, mate".

Does anyone have any experience of these 'phones and some advice on both their ease of use and availability as well as any of their downsides?

Thanks in advance.

I have the moto g 2nd gen. It's cheap and cheerful, does what it says in the tin

OnePlus have just released their 'X' model which is dual sim. Much superior spec.

Believe you can also get the Sony z3 in dual if you want a flagship phone.

The "usual places" downtown are tied to phone companies who do not want to sell you units at a discount to also use a 2nd SIM card.

A neighbor is very successful in using the Samsung Galaxy Duo in US, South America and Europe. The unit was purchased at an airport duty free specifically sold us GSM UNLOCKED so foreign SIM cards can be used.

In China you can even find 4-SIM card units which are sold elsewhere under several names. [Link] [Link] Sound quality is awful and app support is close to none, but they do handle 4 SIMs (for example Orange Europe, Telefonica Americas, T-Mobile US) without having to change cards.

Even if you find a good dual SIM-card unit, you company may not be happy about sharing the same unit for personal use even if you use a separate SIM because the unit will carry company data.
