I own a Galaxy S8 (G950F) and I was wondering if I could use a second sim card. I've seen some S8s that have a different sim tray and they can support a sim card with either a second sim card or sd card but my phone's tray on has a sim + sd card tray.
No
No, because with dual SIM phones you'll have software options for the second SIM even if it's not inserted. The non-dual SIM phones don't have that.

Hello guys...
I wonder if it would be possible to create a virtual sim slot or a switcher?So that we could save images of our real sim cards in our phone and them run them from our SD card or Main memory...
That way we could run multiple SIM cards or if not possible,just to easily switch between many SIM cards without having to turn off and disassemble the phone.
Thnx.
Hi, I would like to know if in the dual sim version of this phone, the one SIM card can be swapped with a microSD card.
Thanks in advance.
No, the SIM card tray already has a slot for the micro SD but you can't put in 2 x micro SD.
The tray has 2 X SIM card slot + 1 X micro SD card slot (dual SIM model), single SIM models have a blanking piece of plastic put in the second SIM card slot but the actual tray is identical in all models.

Hi Everyone, my research found that I can insert 2 Sims in any s8 but only on some market the 2nd tray is enabled. Seems that in Germany it is not.
Is there a way in how to unlock it? And use a normal s8 with dual sim and best would be still get OTA updates
The second tray for micro sd card I guess. Not for the SIM card.
No the tray allows to put in a sim also if you flip it 9. Degree
Also the duos version seem to contain the same hardware and same tray but work with dual sim so I guess it's only software deactivated
You need a second imei which only comes with the fd versions.
Hello I just received the phone today and realized that I have the US version that only includes a single sim tray. On the home screen it shows the config menu for the sim as usim toolkit 1. Would it work with two sim cards if I buy the double sim card tray? I check were the tray goes and it seems that there are the two set of pins to read two sim cards.
Also where can I buy a double sim tray? I found one for 10 dollars in ally express but that is extremely expensive for a sim tray in my opinion.
