Help Dual Sim Phone with GSM and CDMA

[Sarmad Alsaadi]

I am currently having Huawei P8Max with Dual Sim. Both sims are GSM or you may use one of them for mini SD card. I am looking for a phone that is wide like the Huawei that I have now but with GSM and CDMA so that I can move a CDMA sim to this phone. I found such phones on the net but not wide enough like the P8Max Huawei. Is there one with such specifications i.e. width not less than 92 mm and can take GSM and CDMA and can I move the CDMA sim to it without problems. Thanks.

What CDMA carriers are you intending to use it with, Verizon or Sprint? Not China Telecom is it? You better check their BYOD policies for what they will register and activate.

Bare in mind dual-SIM phones are usually intended for sale and use in Asia, and not the US.

Thanks for the reply. I am in Iraq and it neither Vrison nor the other. It is a local carrier calls itself Kalimat and I don't know who is behind it. How do I verify such movement of the sim would be successful, I guess by trial and error. Ireturn again to my main question ...is there a wide phone with gsm and cdam? Thanks.

OK besides China and United States. CDMA is used in a very few other countries and networks. You might have to look at whatever China devices you can get, like made-in-china.com etc. Look for dual-SIM, CDMA enabled.

Outside of the US, CDMA can operate just like GSM, i.e. you don't need to register and activate the phone.
