Dual-SIM refers to a mobile phone’s ability to hold and operate with two SIM cards simultaneously. This feature allows users to have two separate phone numbers or mobile networks on a single device, making it ideal for managing personal and work lines, accessing better coverage, or taking advantage of different data or call plans. Dual-SIM phones can be either dual standby, where only one SIM is active for calls at a time, or dual active, where both SIMs can handle calls and data concurrently. This functionality offers flexibility, cost savings, and convenience for frequent travelers or multi-network users.
