10 Best Dual SIM Smartphones in Malaysia

Robert's Google+



They do not want two smartphones, they just want two SIM in one smartphone.


There must be a market for Dual-SIM smartphones but I never understand that why. A sizable and considerable market share is in Dual-SIM smartphones . Consumer all around the world are uniquely different. Some prefer bigger screen especially women. Some prefer keyboard-alike smartphone Blackberry. Some even prefer camera-oriented or waterproof or aluminium body.

There are endless demands as we know today. It could be the same in smartphone market as well. Last year 1 billion smartphones have been manufactured and distributed all around the world. The figure does not stop there it keep rising. We have nearly 8 Billion population. Let say 2 billion is a 10 years old below and they are not necessary having a smartphone

That number come down to 6 billion population. All we know that smartphone has higher temptation than PC, laptops and other gadgets because now with a right smartphones you can do everything that you like. The things that Twenty-first generation people like to do all the time. For example, calling, short messaging, surfing internet, video call, gaming, capture image, video recording. All of these can be done in a single smartphone.

As soon as your children go primary school, your children will try get their parents for a smartphone that will be a guarantee. Well, that is a good or bad thing ? The laggard children will beg their parent as soon as they hit twelve years old.

Stop this nonsense for a while, there are people actually bought Dual SIM smartphones. I never own a Dual SIM smartphones because I never have the desire. Dual-SIM smartphones are good one for your personal use, one for your business use. That make sense !
