::: VA ::: 531 Report post Posted June 11, 2013 ^^^^^ They are thinking that Grand, S Duos, Ace_Duos, at the MAX Mega5.8 Duos is more than enough for us... But these higher end DualSIM variants are always available exclusively in China for years (S2 Dual, S3 Dual, Note2 Dual, now the S4 Dual). Even I tried Note2_Dual for my relative through KTD (by his friend who is on short official trip to China), but those store people there asked for passports, Visa-copy, etc for getting one. Its better to get them through some local people only. Some sites like talkatone or something are selling to other countries for ridiculous price like 999$ (N7102--Note2 3Gsm+2Gsm) and they don't accept Paypal. If it's official Samsung store why would you feel shy in sharing the documents. It's just like when you take a pay as you go SIM abroad you have to give them the passport and visa copy.

KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted June 11, 2013 ^^^^^ Its ridiculous because, I got China-Mobile Prepaid SIM (on airport itself) without giving any ID proof (No, I don't look like Chinese people)... But passport + Visa copy for an electronic device is not ok, as there is chance for mis-using it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my experiences i have never had any sort of problem in buying anything from China Kanaga Deepan you are right you do not need any documentation to get a prepaid sim in china you can buy as many as u like But its really strange to hear your experience regarding the Passport & Visa Copy required by the store i have bought more than 30 handsets for friends & relatives from China in last 6 months ,from lower end to Higher end Branded handsets without any issues or documents required But i have always bought the handsets from the wholesale markets never bought from a store, will buy from store this time to check Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
::: VA ::: 531 Report post Posted June 12, 2013 Almost same is my experience in UK except they require you to have a proper id for a SIM but not for a handset without connection. Your passport is the only acceptable valid id there. Have bought handsets and Sims few times. Sent from my MB855 using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted July 26, 2013 Reliance CG300 QWERT Dual SIM For Rs 2,499 Source Since this is made by Haier & name is Reliance CG300, i am just assuming it will be CDMA+GSM Dual SIM but that detail is still sketchy/unconfirmed. The phone is manufactured by Chinese firm Haier, but will be branded and sold by operator Reliance from Friday. The Reliance CG300, as it is called, is targeted at the mass market and will retail for just INR 2,499 ($42). That’s down to the fact it is powered by the J2ME platform rather than a more expensive platform like Android, though we understand that the price could drop below $40 in the future. The BlackBerry-looking phone is fairly unremarkable. It includes a QWERTY keyboard, dual-SIM option and dedicated buttons that load Nimbuzz, which has 25 million of its 150 million registered users in India, and Facebook when pressed. The device is Reliance branded and, though the operator is preparing a dedicated data plan to accompany it, it will work on any mobile network across the country. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
