Frist, there's no "S7 edge dual sim" phone. It's just "S7 edge". And it's HYBRID dual sim, not dual sim. Which means you have to choose between a storage card and a second sim card. You can't have both.

SM-G935FD is the Hybrid Dual Sim Model.
In Europe we will only see SM-G935F which is NOT a hybrid dual sim.
I hope i am wrong but...

I don't think. I call Samsung UK and they said that they not planning to release dual sim in UK.

I think Samsung Galaxy S7 is better than LG G5

you are wrong. All S7 are Hybrid dual sim. If you asked if the S7 was Dual Sim, then no it's not, it's HYBRID Dual Sim.

I am not wrong. My statement was very clear.
Hybrid dual sim is not supported with the UK/EUROPE model SM-G935F.
You may call the sim tray "Hybrid" or whatever, but it will only accommodate your single microSim and your microsSD card.

Calm down... no need to shout or being rude;
Go here - http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/mobile-devices/smartphones/galaxy-s/galaxy-s7/hardware/ and read the MicroSD information. No dual sim functionality/Dual SIM card - thus no "Hybird dual sim" as i stated on my original comment.
Now, go to http://www.samsung.com/cn/consumer/mobile-phones/smart-phone/galaxy-s/galaxy-s7/hardware/ and read the same paragraph. Dual SIM card is supported.

Look, a friend of mine is a big manager at Vodafone and he's had the phone in his hands (the same they're shipping out) and it is an hybrid one. However, I see what you mean.

Maybe Vodafone in China

To me it will be possible to get a "hybrid" sm-G935FD from Russia, India, United Arab Emirates, China, indonesia. ....
Just check the local Samsung web pages:
samsung.com/ae/consumer/mobile-devices/smartphones/galaxy-s/galaxy-s7/hardware/
and change the country after samnsung.com/
ae is for United Arab Emirates/in for india/cn for China/ru for Russia ......
You will see on those pages the possibility of dual sim.
If you check the french page (fr) or japanese (jp) there is no dual sim option
I am looking for a S7 edge dual sim 64gb and it's going to be difficult to find ....

Just pre ordered dual sim from UAE, and yes i contacted axiom and they said its dual sim model g935F
Price is way better than Europe too
Axiomtelecom dot com uae not ksa for selecting the region

Nice catch kloodee;
Do you know what 4G bands the UAE model supports?

No idea but for me im on three network on the UK and based on a previous purchase 4G worked fine
Its intersting to know that in the UAE its a snapdragon processor with dual sim standby
For me i need two sims and sd, i might attempt doing the sd/sim hack to take full advantage of the phone
For shipping from UAE i paid around 35£ to ship 2 phones with super fast delivery after march 11
Good luck and i hope this helps !

I will buy this phone, no need for extra storage, 32 for me is a plenty,
Must have 2 lines, how sure are you it will have dual phone capabilities? That's all I'm interested in knowing, and do you by any chance know the model number to look for?
Thanks

You are wrong. Your "big manager" friend is wrong. Not all S7 Edge's are hybrid dual sim. Only specific models.

F/FD, Actual hardware differences between dual sim and standard?

Hey everyone.
Since Samsung's decision to unify all the devices sold to vendors into one unique device spread to all providers in the USA (the Snapdragon version) isn't it possible they did the same with the Exynos version and just changed the tray for the dual sim models, the hardware being in fact the same for both? (dual modem, dual sim reader, etc)
It would be nice if someone tried to fit a dual sim tray into a single sim S7/S7E. I've heard there are some S7e phones in the wild that do not have the DUOS name written on the back but are in fact the FD model.
Thoughts?

I'm in middleeast and yesterday i went to samsung store to buy one and store guy offered me the s7 edge 935f but as he said i can use either with two sims or one sim with memory I'm confused so i didn't buy it
Im not sure its the snapdragon or exynos

I think they only sell the Exynos outside of the USA

Anyone able to try a dual sim tray in a single sim S7edge?

It would be very interesting.

dual sim tray into a single sim S7/S7E
I have the s7 edge single sim G935F but want the dual sim capability and wondered about whether it was just the tray, so i purchased a dual sim tray using just the one sim, i thought if i put it in the second slim slot it would still register but it didnt, so now i am considering trying to install the G935FD dual sim firmware. i have found threads where folks have done it the other way around, dont understand why but cant seem to find anyone that has tried changing from single to dual.

It will not work...

The G935FD has two IMEIs, one for each SIM slot. Even if you got a G935F to recognize both SIMs, the second SIM slot wouldn't have an IMEI, and you wouldn't be able to register it. There's no difference in G935F firmware and G935FD firmware at all. Its a matter of low level software and processes that recognize the SIM and assign the IMEI.

Who's attempting for 2 sims and a sd card together hack ??

All must be aware that S7 is capable of using 2 sims as well as Micro sd card at same time as demonstrated by user at

Any one successfully did this hack ??
Or going to attempt??

Little risky but gonna try sometime.
One pro-tip: To save your battery usage its recommended to use one sim as battery drain will be significantly much faster with 2 active sim cards. But that's just me.

I just did it on my SM-G935FD (S7 Edge dual sim). Works well so far.
see my post http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/insert-2-nano-sim-micro-sd-card-t3342709

Hmm is the S7 used different from the 'normal' G935F? I thought there are different types with dual sim and without... i also do not have a tray with dual sim. But i wonder if i could buy a tray and have dual sim. Stupid question maybe, but the link does not refer to a basic dual sim s7 edition. They just write s7.

Do the 2 trays have the exact same size and be inserted in any S7 edge phones? Cause I'm in Europe so my tray can't accept 2 simcards at all, it's 1 simcard and 1 sdcard.
Cause if they are of the exact same size, I'd like to try and buy one and try this

The user dbux stated that the problem is not the tray, but the phone. According to his point of view, only FD models have pins for the second sim. I'm very confused!!

Obviously you need the dual sim fd model to try this, they're only sold in asia. Dont try anything.

Not sure what the confusion is, this can only be done on dual sim fd phones.

@peachpuff
We know that this can only be done on dual sim fd phones. Vivelafrance and I would like to do a different thing. What? We would like to insert the tray of FD model in F model to see if F model read two sim cards.

Then modify the sim tray with a knife so a nano sim fits in the sd slot, still don't think it'll work though.

Dual sim support

How to check if my device support dual sim? I bought it in Israel.

Just pop the sim tray open if it is dual-sim, you may put a sim card, parallel to the first one, where your microSD slot is.
And I believe that the mention 'FD' will denote double sim models. For instance in all likelihood, if you go to Settings>About phone, your model number will be 'SM-G950FD' if it is dual sim, SM-G950F (or some other letters, cannot remember all the international variants) if it is single-sim.

If it doesn't support dual sim is there any way to fix it. For example by changing the tray. Or there should be support on a hardware level?

There's no such thing as a SM-G955FZ.
