Honor 5x Dual sim functionality

I'm looking at getting an Honor 5x. I want to use it as one phone for both my work and personal phones.

Can someone give me some details on the dual sim functionality of the phone. When I have two sims in, will i get calls on both numbers without having to switch between sims in settings? Will I be able to tell which number is getting the call? Will I be able to choose which number I want to call from? How about text messaging? How can I choose which number to send from?

Thanks for any details you can provide.
 
I haven't used the dual sim on this phone, but I did on the P8 LIte by Huawei. The answer to all your questions is yes. I forget exactly how on incoming calls, but I think the answer button indicates which line the calls are coming on on. As far as outgoing calls, you have two "send" buttons on the dialer to choose which line to use. The only non obvious thing is that it only uses data one line (you choose) but you can switch when necessary. I'll be honest, I forget how messaging works for dual line.
