the customer services operators are giving me rubbish generic replies on my problem with 3g +4g...

Seems like they themselves don't even know that it wont work.....

Anybody else here tried with 3g+ 4g running on two sim concurrently?

Bought the Redmi 3S from Challenger and tested it with my 2 SIM cards.

Showing only StarHub 4G | Singtel on the status bar. No 3G for Singtel...

There is no preferred network settings for the 2nd SIM either. I can only select it for the 1st SIM.

Can you pull down notification bar and check the network name?

I think this phone supports 4g/3g + 2g only.

http://www.mi.com/sg/redmi3s/specs/

Dual SIM use

When two SIM cards are used simultaneously, the primary SIM can support
4G calls and data while the secondary SIM can support 2G calls only.
Eh I remembered it used to be " When two SIM cards are used simultaneously, the primary SIM can support
4G calls and data while the secondary SIM can support 3G calls only.
" on their website, even their staff also say the same too: http://c.mi.com/sg/thread-2612-1-1.html

please, just look at my previous post. I've already tested it out with the local set and it's confirmed 4g/3g + 2g only....

What he refering to is 4g/3g + 3g/2g.

If 2nd slot only 2g, coming 1st april the 2nd slot will be next to useless.

Redmi Note 3 Pro 16GB with SD650 at just $141 before any Qpoint deduction is still a much better buy than Redmi 3S with SD430.

There were 2 established members in miui claimed that this phone has 4g-3g.

That's why amazingone posted that feature in his first post as well.

Upon checking further, the website states that the phone supports 4g-2g only

Plus you have tested and confirmed on this.

Thank you for your information.

Quite disappointed as i thought this phone will be a cheap future phone...
