Dual Sim

[Amethystaranae]

Hi

I’m due to upgrade but need a dual sim phone (ideally a Samsung). Which models have this capability & are they special order please? 

Thanks for your time

Hi @Amethystaranae Any phone you buy from EE may be SIM locked, so if you want to use another networks SIM then you will need to buy SIM free or from a network that commits to not locking phones. (at least until the OFCOM ban comes into effect at the end of this year)

Or are you planning on using two EE SIMs?

[Amethystaranae]

Both sims will be EE - personal & business

@Amethystaranae  You'll be fine from a phone direct from EE then.

Unfortunately though there's no easy way to tell on the EE site if it's dual SIM. The new Samsung s21 ones are I believe. Did you have anything in mind and I'm sure someone can confirm which version EE are selling?

[Amethystaranae]

Not sure which model which is why I asked the original question 👍

Galaxy S10+ is Dual Sim

Galaxy S20+/Ultra is Dual Sim

Galaxy S21 are triple sim as the eSim allows you to have 2 and there is a sim slot.

Galaxy Fold2 is Triple Sim same again 2 eSims plus a physical Sim.

Not all the Galaxy S10 Range are Dual SIM, if they are they are normally identified as DS at the end of the Model Code name, and or they have DUOS printed on the Box and on the back of the Phone. If the Solution Post is meaning that EE only sells, or sold, the S10 Range as s Dual SIM version only, then I just wanted to clarify just in case the OP buys an S10 outside of EE.

On the S20 Dual SIM that also has an eSim option, you have to choose which option to use, SIM or eSim per physical SIM Slot.

Similar on the S21, although it's often referred to as a Triple SIM, again you choose which options, so again only 2 Active Sims per Phone in any combination of SIM / eSim.
