Icon Q today announced the Q5.5, the company's first smartphone. The device is being sold unlocked and free of contracts for $199. The Q5.5 features a 5.5-inch 720p screen, 1.4GHz octa-core MediaTek processor with 2GB of RAM, and 16GB of storage with support for memory cards. The device runs Android 4.4 KitKat and includes a 13-megapixel main camera and a 5-megapixel user-facing camera. The phone offers Bluetooth and WiFi, and supports GSM networks with HSPA (850MHz, 1900MHz, 2100MHz), meaning it will work on the networks run by AT&T and T-Mobile. Icon Q, which makes tablets and other devices, is pitching the Q5.5 as an ideal travel phone since it supports two SIM cards. The device is available directly from Icon Q.

Not too bad for their first release!

How come in 2015 in America this isn't becoming the norm yet? Meaning dual sims. I have 3 lines. 1 is a monthly plan, and the 2 others are on a pay as you go plan I pay every 3 months or so just to keep active. I rather not carry 3 phones overall; especially for my 2 back up lines when I could just carry 1 dual sim instead. If Samsung could make a mid ranger with dual sim they probably could make a lil more money instead of putting out a lot of low to mid range similar type repeat garbage. I'm going to check this lil phone out it's not a bad start for this no name company.
most likely due to the carriers, if samsung or another company were to make one i would think it would be sold directly through them due to it would have the ability to use dual sims right away due to already being unlocked
