I was thinking of buying such a phone so I can keep an India SIM with me permanently.
Back in the 90's I used to have a China phone that I used during my 10 day trips twice a year, saved me (well, my company actually) a lot of money and there was a bit of novelty in having a tiny Nokia in Hong Kong while having a RAZR in the States.
Time goes by, smartphones take over, and now its just too damn inconvenient to support multiple phones or be bothered with SIM swaps to save a few bucks. These days in the States, multiple phones or multiple SIM's are the domain of prostitutes and drug dealers for nefarious reasons.
