Hi - we are looking for some help. My phone has just gone to phone heaven - a MotoG3 dual sim and having visited all the normal mobile shops we are still stumped.
The main thing I need is for it to be Dual Sim - to save me carrying 2 phones around. I use 1 Sim for work and 1 for personal use. I send a few texts and use WhatApp a little more. I also take photos of the children. I currently have monthly contract Sims with Virgin and TPO which I am happy with (but willing to change!). We bought the MotoG3 upfront.
We don't want to pay a fortune (under £200 if possible) but there are so few dual Sim phones out there. They seem far more popular abroad. Any ideas?? Thank you.

Xiaomi MI A2 (Full fat version - not the Lite) - Dual Sim, 4/64 GB (£191 including P&P from Amazon Spain):

The Xiaomi MI A2 & the Lite version are good calls as they have a long sim tray that can take two sim cards AND a micro SD memory card, usually one of the sim card slots doubles up as does the Huawei Honor 8 mentioned above.
I've just ordered a Xiaomi MI A2 Lite 4/32 version from Gearbest for £150, it was ordered on 22/08/18 and was sent from Hong Kong, it's presently in the regional distribution centre in the SW of England so should be here shortly.
If you can't wait (or take the chance) then Amazon sell the 3/32 & 4/64 version for £158 & £188 on Prime so you'd get it tomorrow.

They also stock the Xiaomi MI A2.
Edit: sorry the MI A2 doesn't have a SD slot at all, just dual sims, the Lite version however does have all three as well as a whopping great big 4,000 mAH battery.0 -
