Hey, nice post. I have been searching for the best 4G Mobile phones and found this good.
Manoj
Redmi 3s Prime is not True dual sim phone, has a hybrid SIM tray which means you can use one SIM and a microSD card at a time or two SIMs at a time. So it should not included in dual sim mobile phones.

thank you for your review. but one thing is constantly missing in every review. that is if both sims are compatible with 4g. because nowdays mobile networks give so many offers for only 4g handset. thatswhy it is important to tell that both sims are compatible with 4g or not. could you include the info with the upcoming reviews. thanks

Dear Anonymous reader,
Yes, almost all phones support 4G on both SIM slots and this has become a norm over the last few years. So we do not feel the need to mention it separately.
