I’d love for the phone to more aggressively switch connections… if I have 1 bar and slow speeds on the primary line, and full signal on the secondary line, dual SIMs would be a lot more useful if it switched automatically in that circumstance.
My default setup in Europe is two SIMs from different providers, based on the same idea like yours. Unfortunately I encounter the same, data switching is only switching when there is no data connection at all on one of the lines. Not totally useless but could be made much more useful.
