Eddie Strong <time itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2017-05-26 10:06:52Z">5/26/2017 10:06 AM</time> It looks like you could put a Verizon sim in slot 1. Then put a T-mobile sim in slot 2 and it would work just fine. Has anyone had experience with a similar setup?

Albert <time itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2017-09-13 19:11:31Z">9/13/2017 7:11 PM</time> I don't think this variant supports CDMA networks. I could be wrong though.

Waqas Khan <time itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2018-01-05 02:31:09Z">1/5/2018 2:31 AM</time> Are you serious that about: 3G network SIM2 Not Supported 4G network SIM2Not Supported I am using 3G and 4G both on this phone. Please consider rechecking the article before publishing. It starts bringing doubts about whole information provided.
Mauricio Hernaski <time itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2018-01-08 10:07:55Z">1/8/2018 10:07 AM</time> The specifications are correct. Does this work at the same time? You can use the 3G/4G on both cards, but not at the same time, your device has only one 3G/4G network. You can only choose which card will have the 3G network. The 2G network has two and can be used at the same time. We are experts in this subject, if you have any questions, let us know. Best regards!
Paul M Murray <time itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2018-01-20 14:40:28Z">1/20/2018 2:40 PM</time> Your info may be correct but it is very confusing. I want to buy a dual SIM smartphone to replace my Samsung Galaxy 4 Duos. The 2G network has been shut down in Aus and SIM2 no longer works. I DO NOT WANT TO USE 2 SIMs at the same time. I want to select which one is active for Voice/Data in Australia then change to the other SIM for Voice/Data in UK/Europe. I just want to be able to send and receive call (not data) on either SIM. I don't want to have to swap out SIMs I just want to be able to select the primary and secondary in Settings, which is what I have been doing until the 2G network was shut down. So how can I tell from your Specs Info which smartphone suits my needs. I don't want to buy a new phone and find it's SIM 2 is just like the one I've got.
Shams <time itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2019-11-18 00:48:46Z">11/18/2019 12:48 AM</time> I bought this phone not too long ago. It's a superb device I don't have any major issues with it except that I am not able to connect it using USB to my PC I cannot also purchase themes and fonts for it. Whenever I tried purchasing from the Samsung store, the system tells me that rooting is detected. Pls is there any solution to this? I so much love my phone.
