During 2011, Nokia finally realized the ever growing demand of low budget dual SIM phones among youth and low salaried workers in both developed and developing nations, such as Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and other African and Asian countries.
The real demand and market for dual SIM handsets increased when Chinese manufacturers started to develop these phones and export them to developing countries, the trend of low budget dual purpose phones started to hype up and eat up market share of Nokia. Eventually Nokia started to release their own versions of dual SIM phones, which no doubt are better than most of low quality Chinese brands.
Even though Nokia is struggling in the smartphone market, their is grip on low-end market that is strong. We have compiled a comprehensive list of dual SIM Nokia mobiles. The list below covers pricing information and specifications.
