Well-informed all....
After a day where I inadvertantly b*ggered my s4 mini and had to make a very rash decision on immediate upgrade (lots of business comms that were way past urgent), I am now in possession of a brand spanking Samsung s5 full size in copper gold. No s5 mini's in stock so had to take full size. Note - i cannot get on with Apple products.
My s4 mini is a dual sim one, very effective, somewhat limited camera-wise and was only 3g, but perfect as opposed to 2 x phones which was the prev arrangement.
Now potentially suffering some buyers remorse but have a cooling off period. In the meantime I have a new LCD on way for the s4 mini.
So, s5 is big and only single sim, I am size conscious (lol). Landscaper so dirt/dust/drop etc etc etc. On the whole I find the s4 mini dual really easy to use, not too clunky to switch between sims, and fairly trouble free apart from when I inadvertantly press envelope 1 instead of 2 (there are two text message "envelopes" - you press whichever sim you wish to use ie 1 or 2). For info, sim 2 is sporadic usage but relevant and a necessary evil.
A suggestion has been made to repair and move on the 4 duos, and get one of these dual sim converter/interface thingys, and keep the s5. Or stick with the repaired s4 mini dual for a while. Has anyone any experience of these converter thingys and could report back?
Or should I have dodged Samsung altogether (don't waste time trying to convert me to Apple please, never gonna happen!!!) ?
Thx
