Dual SIM Mobile Phones are not made in China
Filipinos can easily convinced in every sales talk especially when about mobile phones. China Phones are popular in the market. But there is something they don't know about these dual SIM-enabled phones. China Phones are being sold with unauthorized selling permit, yes it is unauthorized because they are imitation and didn't comply and tested in quality and no permission for copying a copyrighted work of leading brands. Way back 2008, China Phones was being marketed because of its unique features as they said like having a Dual Standby SIM Card, TV Watching and entertainment completeness for the price of P 15,000 to P 20,000. But this time with the start of 2010, China Phones with the same features are sold at around P 1,500 to P 4,000. Dual Sim is not new to the market, old phones such as 3310 are converted into Dual Sim but it is not Dual standby, you need to turn it off to transfer into the next line which gives you a little inconveniences.
Everybody is missing something when it comes to Dual Sim Card standby. Samsung was the first branded mobile phone to offer Dual Stand by SIM with its Model D780 released late 2007 and followed by D880 with a lower price compared with China Phones. This quality product became the copycat of other China Phones, Cherry Mobiles, My Phone, and other new brand with dual SIM standby features. The only difference of those other brands is the Operating System, since most or all of the other Dual Standby Mobile Phones are installed with the same operating system which is far different to Samsung's Dual SIM Phone OS.
At this time LG announced also its first Dual SIM capable phone KS660 with also a good price. Now there is no other reason for us Filipino to buy China Phone, unless we are really don't know technology. Since everybody is convinced with Nokia, the company is predicted to announced its Dual Sim enable phone this 2010 but will initially available in Russia, but who knows giant cellular phones provider will follow the steps of Samsung, since LG done it already.

As a person, you have your own privacy. You don't need to mix your personal and professional life. Personal means your family, your love once who rarely contact you for an important matters only. Your Professional life can be your work, where clients and colleagues communicate with you unexpectedly.
5. Why we prefer Samsung in Dual SIM-Enabled Phone?
We all know that Nokia was the world's largest manufacturer with around 40 percent of market share, Samsung just followed with around 18 percent of market share. Sony Ericson, Motorola and lastly LG was followed after them. These mobile phones handle the market share around 80 percent in total, and 20 percent belong to others.
Not all No. 1 are the best, even with telecommunications war of Globe, Smart and Sun that we all know that SMART is No. 1. The story here is about our own selection and comparison about those Cellular phone brands. We tried different kinds of cellular phone and we found out that Samsung suited our needs, such as Long Battery life compared to Nokia, quality houses that cannot be easily broken, and of course other features. But it might be lacking with games, OS support, but honestly we don't need those because we consider mobile phones as not a game machine or a more time of entertainment, but we consider as a part of Computing with the good partnership of Computers.

Pricing of Nokia N97 was previously gone down from P 35,000 Philippine Peso to P 26,000 Philippine Peso. And this december is available for installment for only P 28,000 for 12 months without interest for card holders.

Dual Samsung B130
I have here two Samsung B130 for
different network. The reason why for selecting Samsung is because of its quality. Battery life also gives longer talk hours and usage. A lot of reviews of cellular phone but this one gives me impressing standby time. When i try to check some of the mobile phone and buy it in the market, i was disappointed about the life of battery that may cause inconveniences to us in case it is drain.
Samsung offers good battery life especially for basic phones where professionals or user need cellular just for purely text and business call.
Samsung B130 might be faced out in the market soon, but samsung is making more innovations to make basic phones really a useful one.
Samsung Mobile Phone, beating Leading brand with a quality phones
The best about samsung mobile is it quality. Compared to other Mobile Phones, Samsung provide the best handset with extended life. What are the benefits of samsung that you cannot find in other mobile phones? Samsung Mobile has longer battery life compared to Nokia and other brands. Samsung also has some features which is not available in other brands such as Mobile Tracker a technology where a stolen phone can be retrieved by sending an anonymous text message to another set up phone. This is ideal for those who want to protect mobile phone prepaid numbers to avoid being changed.
My experience in Samsung is far better compared to other mobile phone i have before. In the Philippines the leading manufacturer of mobile phones is Nokia. I tried all the leading brands mobile phone such as NOKIA, SAMSUNG, SONY, MOTOROLA and now buying LG brand. I can conclude that i prefer samsung. Since not all number 1 are always the best. For example, Globe Smart and Sun. Smart is leading as the largest telecommunication in the Philippines, but in terms of reliability and service, globe is better as study shows by the NTC.
We all know that nokia was the largest manufacturer of mobile phone with 39.4 percent marketshare, and samsung has only 17.3 percent marketshare. But not all number 1 are the best.
