Is there a dual sim version ? - Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers

Hi,
I am looking to change my xperia X Compact to XZ1 Compact, but i will need in a few month a dual sim phone.
Is there a dual sim version on the XZ1 Compact, or do i have to buy the XZ1 ?
Thanks

There is a version. I saw it in the Wondamobile store, and on eBay. Probably is only available in Asian markets, so you will need to use a reseller like the ones mentioned. Make sure you chose one that accepts Paypal and returns, to be safe. The only problem is that it also has only 32Gb and an hybrid tray (you need to chose between 2nd SIM or SD card), which I find insufficient nowadays. If it came with 64Gb of storage it would be mine already.

I highly doubt it, there's been misinformation all over the place about a dual sim variant, but to date no proof can be found from official sources.
Some rumors claim that a dual sim variant was in the works but cancelled at the last minute.
Chances are the specs you saw listed in the store and on eBay are false.
FWIW, only one model number (G8441) is listed under the XZ1 Compact on Xperifirm, a dual sim variant will have a different model number, possibly G8442 given the similar naming schemes of the XZ1 and XZ Premium.
That said, I'd very much like to be proven wrong since I'm also in the market for a dual sim variant.

Thanks for the answers.
I just look at xpericheck.com, and there is actually only one version for the XZ1 Compact.

No, on the box there is no specific information regarding the region. If your extremely particular about getting the UK version, then you should buy it from the official HTC store. It costs 500 pounds

Do they sell the dual sim version at best buy?

I'm a bit confused with that. Wondering how many have purchased from best buy?

As far as I know the dual sim is not available at all at best buy.
Even on the Motorola US page you cannot order the dual sim. The first one I ordered from Motorola directly in the US had just one sim slot, so I sent it back.
The one I ordered in Germany has the dual sim. Funny is that both models were shipped from the same location in China
The dual sim model is not avaiable in US.

Convert F8131 to F8132??

Hi,
do you think it's possible to convert a single sim to dual sim, like it is for example with the Moto X Play? Of course the image needs to be adjusted to the smaller flash in the single sim version.
In my country dual sim is only available via non official and expensive dealers.
Cheers

I'm not saying it's definitely not possible, but since u haven't bought it yet and u want a dual sim, my opinion is get an imported one maybe from ebay or somewhere else, not sure if that's much more expensive for u though.
Also single sim only have 32Gb internal storage and dual have 64Gb
If there will be custom roms for this device, does will F8132 (dual) roms work on F8131 (single)? (i mean only with SIM1 working)

Dual SIM rumor?

Is Dual SIM a rumor or is there any confirmed source? I havent noticed it on Sony's, various region, pages, so far only few news outlets write about it. Some of the retailers are leaving out Single/Dual SIM info
Single sim
GSMarena did their review of XZ1 Compact today and they seem to suggest it has a hybrid sim slot and will support dual SIM. I am also confused with the conflicting information about this everywhere.
Hi!
Are there any news about this topic?
I'm thinking about ordering a Xz1 compact, but I would need dual sim capability really badly.
What about the rumors about the Hybrid SIM/SD card?
Thank you
Would be very interested about news according this topic! In Switzerland in our Price comparing Website there is already a phone listed as "SONY Xperia XZ1 Compact Dual-SIM, 32GB, Schwarz" but no option to buy yet. Do we know more by now?
Cheers

Mine doesn't seem to have dual-sim capabilities.

Anyone know where I can get the dual SIM plus dedicated microSD slot version?

Basically, that's my question. Other posts talk about the hybrid version but I need the one where I can use two SIMs and the microSD at the same time. I know it exists, according to LG and GSMarena, but I can't find it to buy. It looks like the Australian version MAY be dual SIM plus dedicated microSD, although I haven't had that confirmed, but so far I haven't been able to find an Australian shop that ships to the US.
Anyone know where I can get one? Ebay hasn't been any help either.
There isn't one. The AU/NZ version is hybrid dual SIM too.
Global Dual SIM versions are all LM-V405EBW.
Thanks. OK, I'm going to have to give up on the V40. If I really want the dual SIM plus microSD, I'm going to have to look closely at the new Asus Zenfone 6. Only LCD and no wifi but life is full of having to make difficult choices.
