Although
the phone with two SIM-Cards is known for a long time, and the scenarios in
which such devices may be useful, a great multitude, they often find themselves
on the market "poor relations".
They
are produced or second-tier companies, using unpretentious Chinese designers,
industry or grant that position these models as best as the middle segment,
limiting their technical characteristics and functionality. Thus, for example,
active travel and not a poor man, who would prefer to have a smart phone, which
at the same time established a local SIM-Card for mobile Internet to
communicate with friends and colleagues, cannot buy for this purpose full
flagship.
The
first major blow to the existing state of affairs has caused a year ago, HTC,
launched the sale of its flagship version of HTC One. Dual-SIM model did not
differ from the powerful machine aesthetic metal housing almost nothing, apart
from the presence, in fact, the second slot for a SIM card and a very annoying
"but". As befits a flagship, supports networks 4G (LTE), the device
with two SIM was limited 3G-networks. It was a sad year ago, but today is
doubly unfortunate because all major federal operators whole year actively
building 4G-coverage, network capacity, and a modern powerful smartphone
without 4G already unthinkable.
HTC
has realized this and first presented in the Russian market solution. HTC One
M8 - support LTE, so the owners will be able to use the network to 4G-speeds.
However, this feature is only available for a SIM-Card, but this approach is
unlikely to cause serious inconvenience, since only one card is typically used
to connect to the network.
In
addition, the work of two LTE-modules would severely effect on battery life,
but it is a sore point for modern smartphones. True, HTC and tried here,
equipping One M8 smart enough sleep mode, which, depending on the battery level
may limit the speed of the processor, the activity of back-end applications and
to change other parameters, so that even in the last 10% charge a smartphone
could work up to 30 hours.
Other
features One M8 Dual-SIM not changed and recall that it is equipped with a authoritative
processor, 5.0 "display complete HD 16 GB storage and a slot microSD, a
hybrid camera, fixing the distance to objects in the frame (i.e. the"
depth "of the image) and a number of photo service, based on this
particular camera . This flagship with 4G and two SIM cards. We can only wish
every major manufacturer to adopt this approach and to have such a top model in
its product line.
