Now you enter a level below my entertainment threshold, let me guess, you fly in and out of any nation in the world at will I guess.

let me entertain you my friend If there's one place you wouldn't want to be an American patriot, it's at Smart headquarters. It's that simple my friend.

I use Smart, for the internet I pay $8 per month for Smart StreamOn8. Sometimes it depends where you are and if there is a mast in the area, also started to use Metphone, but too
complicated on the what you can do side, example I have $10 on the phone if I want to exchange I have top up the balance. I would say Smart may be more advanced and has good coverage. Also Smart outlets always have an English speaker, so easy to communicate.
Tourist's come usually only on my short visits, where expats may stay long-term, but remember that we are all only guests of the Kingdom. But the phone is important for many reasons, and the company who has the most covering must be the one in front.

Building such a phone increases costs. The smaller the market - the higher per unit cost.

Don’t want to compromise on phone call capabilities? Get a satellite phone. Ridiculously expensive, and doesn’t fit in a pocket.

Sorry for the tongue in cheek response.

I have a dual sim phone, samsung, does everything I need it to do, $150. also a good range of Xiaomi & Huawei phones that have dual sim, along with google, vivo, oppo to name a few

Samsung S22 (their flagship) has a dual sim option, which combined with eSim you can use 3. there is a dual sim phone to suit nearly every purchase price. It's only apple that doesnt really do them (outside of china), but with the eSIM you can

As I have a work SIM and a personal SIM, a dual SIM phone seems like a logical choice compared to having two phones.
