Guest Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I currently operate a basic push button phone, but may move to a smartphone. Considering use of the smartphone for travel (no call contracts): 1 Are there reasonable Pay as You Go SIM options with reasonable data download costs? The whole idea of having such a phone would be for browsing, map applications etc. 2 Do any of the smartphones have dual SIM capability? (For homecountry & destination SIM cards, I currently take 2 small pushbutton phones, which use the same very light USB charger. Purchasing 2 smartphones would be expensive). Presumably some of the early adopters might have experience of these issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhorTose Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 No, I checked all the top smartphones out before I bought my Galaxy II, and none have a dual Sim card,. I think the progblem is that in most markets you can buy a roaming connection with an international 800 number for less then it would cost to have dual sims on your phone. I keep my smartphone when I travel and use cheap phones with my partner or just buy new sim cards. Depends on where I am going and how long I will be there.
