Question Android phone dual SIM question

[mikeymikec]

Hopefully some people here have experience with this kind of setup!

I might have to replace my work phone (self-employed, my work phone is a phone that used to be my main/personal mobile phone), and carrying around two phones is annoying.

If I tried having a single phone to replace both and use a dual-SIM setup, I would need the ability to be sure (and for it to be convenient to use) to know which phone number I'm texting or phoning / receiving a phone call with.

From what I've read, it seems to me that Android phones treat dual-SIM setups in very basic terms like the second one is a backup for the first to ensure coverage, or to use one SIM for data and the other for calls, if so then that's not really any good for me.

Never used it, but I do know you can assign different ringtones to each sim. If I had to guess it's a hassle tradeoff saving the carry of two devices for paying closer attention to electronic switches while operating the phone. Pick your poison.
