Now a days most of the customers prefer buying a smartphone with a Dual Sim feature. I am sure that after buying a dual sim phone you must be annoyed at times as the feature is not as per your expectations. You needed a Dual Sim Dual Active phone. We have selected some of the best smartphones available in this cadre.
There are two types of dual sim smartphones. One is the Dual Sim Standby type and another is the dual sim dual active type. Majority of the smartphones are Dual Sim Standby type. In this type you have to do a call forwarding from one sim to another.
In Dual Sim Dual Active smartphones, both the SIMs are active at all the time. So while talking to your friend from one SIM, you can still get messages and calls from the other sim during the call. In this case you can put a call on hold and you can attend the call which has arrived from the different SIM.
The Dual Active phones have two separate Transceivers and in some smartphones there is different processor cores for the SIMs. This does lead to more power consumption. So a larger battery capacity is essential for such smartphones.
The customer does like the Dual Active smartphones, but they are a very few in the market. So let us have a look at the Dual SIM Active smartphones available in the market.

How is Micromax Canvas A1? When will i get the review on your website???
HTC never fails! 🙂
Does this list mean without call forwarding option set in the phone, call will be received if SIM1 is on a call and someone calls on SIM2?
If yes, can both calls be conferenced?
other than samsung c3212 and one next series of 2011-12 none has that real time dual active tech. i.e. when sim 1 is busy, sim 2 will receive calls .. no call forwarding business.. you can combine calls and make conference..
Hello, im looking for a real dual sim active phone, you mentioned the one next series, whats the exact name and model ? or if there are any other available now. thanks a lot.
S6802 is not a Dual SIM Full Active. It only uses call forwarding, so let’s stay far away from this device.
Samsung 3212 is both sim active device and others having a feature called smart sim .it forward the calls alternate sims.actually all manufacturers are doing fraud with customers .custumOrs pay for dual sim mobile and they push single sim mobile while second sim is parking position its useless while one sim is in use.

Hi Hertys,
Could you please explain in detail if HTC one M7 dual is really dual active phone?
which means if you are talking to someone on SIM1 and if someone called DAVID is calling you on SIM2, you should receive the call on SIM2 and DAVID should hear the ringing tone NOT THE WAITING TONE.
Could you please confirm the above scenario is working?
Yes its working, dont worry
