A triple SIM phone.

WinstonSmith — Tue, 19 Sep 2023 10:46:16 GMT

Samsung should seriously consider

to make a triple SIM phone.

Those phones are widely available on the market by the fourth-league manufacturers and they are very popular in the poor, developing countries.

In the majority of the poor countries, manufacturers as Infinix and Tecno have a significant market share and a triple SIM phone should be the reason,

why some customers will migrate to Samsung and Samsung can take a bigger slice of the market.

But, it doesn't mean,

that the triple SIM phones aren't interesting for the civilised world.

A lot of people are still carrying two,

even three phones, regardless of the fact,

that a dual SIM phones are

the mainstream now.

Samsung might even consider

to make a triple SIM phone

for its upcoming S Series,

and Z Series.

Just imagine.

The only big manufacturer,

who is making a triple SIM flagship phone.

I've not owned such a model of phone @WinstonSmith however I do feel a dual sim phone hits the sweet spot for me.

Obviously a person can use a physical sim and an e sim if so wished.

The important consideration is the depletion of battery when a phone is using x2 network connections so a phone using x3 network connections would be more usage on the battery and resources.

Then theres a cost to a person paying for two or three contracts or x3 Pay as You Go contracts.

Not everyone has that amount of disposable income to give to this.

If I can be of any further help then please don't hesitate. Take care. 😎

You're right.
It will have an impact on battery life and of course,
it is more expensive,
but if someone needs them,
or is just ****** and wants to show to everyone else,
how rich he/she is,
or how important,
because he/she needs twenty different SIM cards active simultaneously,
it's not my business at all.
Maybe it's a combination of a different data and roaming tariffs, maybe that person is a mafia boss,
who needs a plenty of different SIM cards,
maybe it's a famous person,
who is afraid of his/her privacy,...
Because I've spent about thirteen years at the stores with electronics,
I'm not trying to figure out,
why a certain are buying a certain things.
If does make a sense to them, it's OK.
Once I did an installation of a high-end home cinema for someone's toilet.
I'm not judging.
I'm just trying to sell how much I can.

I realise it's an old thread but I just wanted to say that having 3 contracts can mean that you pay less. As you can take advantage of the deals for data and then replace them without having to worry about having to transfer your number or anything. Also, many people have no choice but to have multiple sims. For example, when you live abroad or have relations in 2 countries, you do generally need to keep both numbers. If you live abroad and also need a separate work phone, you're in trouble. And I'd imagine that in some very specific circumstances, like if you have a work that involves a lot of travelling across multiple countries, you might end up having to keep X numbers for communication.

If you live abroad and need a work phone you might need more than 2 sims. Even if you're poor, I don't see why would anyone have multiple sims to show off or how does it relate with being rich in any way. Also more contracts doesn't necessarily mean that you pay more if you use them for different things. . .

I'm not saying that it's for everyone.
But it's a solution for many people.
Let's say you're a famous star, so you don't need to give your private personal number to everyone.
So, one number is for the public, if it is necessary to give a number.
(Amazon, eBay,...)
The second one is strictly for business.
And the third one,
for the closest friends and family.
The famous actors, musicians, sportsmen,
pornstars, top businessmen,
people who travel around the world on a daily basis,
criminals,...
the list is countless.
It's not always about money and privacy,
it can also be about the signal coverage somewhere...

With e-sim & S/W (AI) the battery drain can be optimised by not connecting frequently with low coverage providers (or pausing during off-work hours for business plans), etc.
3+ sim/e-sim option is handy. You can manually switch between multiple e-sims but you need 1 constant main sim.

Just to add to it, I myself recently realized I needed a 3rd active sim due to myself travelling overseas. 1 x sim for home country. 2nd sim for foreign country for both incoming and outcoming calls in foreign country. 3rd sim is for roaming calls. The problem I had is the first sim roaming rates is very expensive but data rates are cheap. It is troublesome for myself having a need to toggle between the sim which if Samsung have a phone with 3 sim would be perfect for myself.
