Hey guys. Just a quick question. Not sure if this was answered but I a clarification.

Current situation:

Using dual-sim phone with M1 for my data usage and Starhub for my calls and SMSes.

Checked the settings of my phone (LG V10), and 4G can be activated on one slot while the other one stays at GSM/GPRS.

So does that mean that by 1 April 2017, my phone is technically useless for dual-sim functions? So I'm forced to upgrade from my LG V10?

I know that newer phones like LG V20 and Mi Max has 3G and 4G slots and can be used simultaneously. Just wanted to clarify.

Yes, it will become single-SIM LTE handset. The GSM slot will not connect to any of the three local networks, may connect to oversea roaming networks (if you're inside their coverage area).

Roaming charges apply though, so it's either you merge everything to one network, or change device.
