The best smartphones with two SIM cards and a good camera
The times when even amateur photography required purchasing a bulky camera are far behind us. Today, even an ordinary mobile phone is capable of taking excellent pictures, suitable for posting not only on social networks, but also in family albums. Moreover, the cameras of many smartphones record videos of very decent quality, so an ordinary mobile phone can become a tool for conducting a full-fledged video blog. If you are interested in one of these tasks, then the smartphone models below will be an ideal option for purchase.
HUAWEI P30 6/128GB
HUAWEI P30 is a very good mobile phone. The smartphone is significantly different in design from its older brother with the Pro prefix, and for the better. Although this is a matter of taste. The fingerprint scanner has disappeared from the back wall and moved under the display glass. Since we already remembered the screen, it’s worth saying that it has a diagonal of 6.1 inches and a resolution of 1080x2340 pixels and is made using AMOLED technology. It is protected from damage using 3D Gorilla Glass.
The speed of the smartphone is driven by the Kirin 980 processor and 6GB of RAM. This will be quite enough for most tasks, including modern games. Having a 128GB drive will allow you not to worry too much about free space for a long time.
Judging by the reviews of owners, not everyone likes the fact that they have to sacrifice a second SIM card if they need to install a memory expansion card and vice versa.
Among the advantages are:
- high-quality screen;
- one of the best cameras today;
- sound quality in headphones;
- productive iron.
Disadvantages include:
- the speakers are not stereo;
- inability to use two SIM cards and a memory expansion card.
Xiaomi Mi Note 10 6/128GB
This smartphone has perhaps the best camera not only in this rating, but among all modern smartphones. The 108 megapixel resolution alone is simply amazing. It is also equipped with 5 lenses, each of which has its own task.
Such a high-end smartphone cannot but boast of a high-quality AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.47 inches and a resolution of 2340 × 1080 pixels. It also hides a fingerprint scanner, which works quite well unless the temperature drops below zero or your finger gets wet.
Excellent levels of performance are achieved thanks to the Snapdragon 730G processor, designed specifically for models that have good parameters, but are in the slightly above average price category. It is perfectly complemented by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal memory.
Autonomous operation is provided by a rechargeable battery with a capacity of 5260 mAh and a 30 W fast charging function. It allows you to use your smartphone for up to two days without recharging.
The disadvantages include the lack of a slot for memory expansion, which, given the size of the photos taken by the 108-megapixel camera, makes using this device not very comfortable.
Advantages:
- powerful processor;
- chic interface set;
- excellent screen;
- amount of RAM and built-in memory;
- wonderful camera;
- impressive appearance;
- capacious battery.
Flaws:
- for $500 you could get a top-end processor;
- the memory cannot be increased.
Samsung Galaxy S10e 6/128GB
The main features of this smartphone, unlike other “ten”, are the presence of a completely flat screen, without curves, and a front camera located in the cutout of this very screen. Just like older models, the smartphone is equipped with IP68 protection, which theoretically allows it to withstand being in water at a depth of up to a meter for half an hour. However, it is better not to tempt fate, because moisture getting inside is not a guarantee.
The fingerprint scanner is located not under the screen, like many expensive models, but on the side. It was combined with the power button and provided with a touchpad function that allows you to open and close the notification panel by swiping up or down.
The display is made using Dynamic AMOLED technology, has a diagonal of 5.8 inches and a resolution of 2280x1080 pixels. The Exynos 9820 processor, 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal memory are responsible for the performance. Expanding the smartphone's memory is available, but not if both SIM cards are used.
Advantages:
- powerful and very energy efficient processor;
- good screen;
- convenient to use with one hand;
- high-quality camera;
- excellent speakers;
- excellent system optimization;
- protection from moisture and dust.
Flaws:
- choice between a second SIM card and a memory card.
Apple iPhone 11 64GB
This model is the ideological successor to one of their most hit smartphones, the iPhone Xr. In terms of design, this is most noticeable, because the smartphone has undergone virtually no changes. The only obvious difference is the presence of a protruding camera block on the back of the gadget.
Apple iPhone 11 is equipped with a display made using IPS technology, measures 6.1 inches and has a resolution of 1792x828 pixels. The performance of the device is ensured by the Apple A13 Bionic, 4GB of RAM and 64/128 or 256 GB of internal memory (depending on the version). This is quite enough to perform most modern tasks.
As for the camera, it allows you to take very high-quality pictures. The night shooting mode made a particularly big step forward in this regard. The use of special algorithms allowed this smartphone to match the quality of night photos with much more expensive models.
A 3110 mAh battery is responsible for autonomy, which ensures active use of the smartphone throughout the day. Charging up to 100%, when using the included charger, will take as long as 3 hours, which is completely indecent, especially considering the brand.
Another disadvantage of the smartphone is the lack of a slot for two SIM cards. Therefore, owners of this phone will have to be content with only one operator.
The advantages include:
- good processor;
- sufficient amount of RAM and internal memory;
- good cameras;
- current OS iOS 13.
The disadvantages are:
- lack of a slot for memory expansion;
- for fast charging you need to buy a separate unit;
- inability to install a second SIM card.
Xiaomi Poco M3
Another representative of Xiaomi in our TOP is the Poco M3 smartphone.
It, like the previous heroes of this video, supports the simultaneous use of two nano SIM cards and a memory card.

Thanks to this battery, the smartphone can go without recharging for 2-3 days, if you do not abuse games and web surfing. Poco M3 also supports fast charging, which will allow you to restore battery charge in the shortest possible time.
The Snapdragon 662 processor is responsible for the performance of the smartphone, which ensures fast operation of the operating system and applications.
This smartphone also boasts a large 6.53-inch screen with good color reproduction and a 48-megapixel camera, which, with the support of artificial intelligence and night shooting mode, will allow you to take bright and detailed photographs even in low-light conditions.

Among the advantages of this mid-budget smartphone, it is worth noting the screen with an OLED matrix, which has wide viewing angles and excellent color rendition.
