Special notes

The phone adopts dual-card dual-standby single-access design, i.e., two SIM cards

inserted into the phone cannot receive and make a voice call at the same time or access the

internet simultaneously. When one SIM card is calling or access to the internet, the other SIM card

must be OFF; therefore, another SIM card cannot receive a call or access the internet. If someone

dials the number of the other SIM card at the same time, he or she will hear “The number you have

dialed is not within the service area”, this is caused by the single-access design of the phone rather

than the network condition of the network operator. Single access is because the phone adopts a

single chip design, which can increase the standby time significantly and reduce its power

consumption. Users are recommended to consult the local network operator and subscribe

“Missed call prompt” service to avoid the problem of missing calls without a prompt under the

above conditions.
