Just bought 1 iPhone XS Max (A2104) from Hong Kong 2 days ago.

It has the most frequencies supported among all the iPhone XS and the I'm using both M1 and Starhub SIM simultaneously, no problem, can support Singapore's 4G and 3G.

Real dual SIM is fantastic, U can set by default which SIM card u want to use for data and calls, and when you want to dial, you can also choose which SIM card to dial out.

For SMS, i still haven't figure out yet, but the format is not the same as Android dual sim functions.

Yes, I am able to receive SMS OTP for banking cos it's connected to singapore 4G/3G network ah..

Only issue for all worldwide iPhone XS Max is the UOB Banking app which has some issue.

I manage to reserve at 8am at Apple store Hong Kong online, and picked it up later in the day at Apple Store causeway bay.

Well, maybe somebody can get inspired and bring in some Hong Kong iPhone XS Max for sale. Hong Kong price is about $100+ cheaper than SG set, but don't get the China ones, they are expensive

i bought the HK set with cash, base on exchange rate of 1 SGD to 5.68 HKD, i paid around $1900 SGD for the iPhone XS Max 256GB. So with markups/profits/efforts, you can expect it to hit $2000 or above.

So far can select which card for roaming and which one for local data?
