Since the scale at the top of this so called "review" doesn't indicate if a 10 is good or bad, I will make it as five in order to continue.
Bad Points
My D880 only seems to work with one SIM card. Card one is active while card two says "No Service." If I swap the two cards, the one that was in the number two position now works fine in the number one position! The card that was working fine in the number one position now says "no service."
There is something wrong here. I have set both SIMS to be "enabled" in the phone setup. So I either have a lemon out of the box or the phone is weak in it's ability to work with two SIMS.
Also, I will mention that the manual included with the phone (it is titled "condensed user guide") is brief with no detail and assumes you already know how operate this phone. No full manual is available.
General Comments
I have looked all over the internet trying to find Samsung DuoS D880 support with no luck. Their web site forces you to specify a country and none of the countries I can find offers the D880 so I am up against s stone wall. I bought the phone on eBay from a dealer importing these in Hong Kong and he is no help.
So, this phone is useless for me and I am VERY disappointed.
I would be very cautious about buying this phone. It sounds like a great idea but I have spent over $400 and have a phone that only supports ons SIM card at this point.
