Does both the sim works at the same time?

 

[sharma_atul85]

Yes,both sims work at the same time. Plus bundled earphones are better and no lagging while using phone and good build quality, better battery backup and comfortable keypad to use. easy to grip and whoa ! you can surf net as well though at a very low speed. auto reject feature just shows a 1-2 sec pop up window of calling number and call is disconnected. good voice clarity ...

I think its more than a phone of this range can provide you !! `Go and get it .

Guys any idea about Samsung Hero Music E1232 and Samsung Guru E2152.
Does in these phones also both the sim work at the same time like in Nokia 101
