dont like my asus zenfone 2 - any other dual sims + dedicated sd slots out there?

[b-16707]

been using a zenfone 2 (ml551ml) for about a month now after coming off of an oppo find 7s and im not digging the zenfone cheap build and most importantly the lack of dual 3G+ sim slots. One of the sim slots is 2G only. Had I known this I wouldnt have bought this phone.

Seems like dual sims + dedicated sd slot phones are few and far between out there. One of these with a snapdragon 820 would be nice too. Anything out there thats not a ridiculously priced sony?

Currently have my eyes set on a LG X Mach but not sure if I missed anything else. Lots of the ones Im looking at dont cover the full radio spectrum of what ATT uses here.

Buy the honor 5X.
Great stand in for what your Zenfone is missing.

Welcome to the forums. I have the Moto X Play. 4G on both SIMs and a separated SD card slot. Great phone, but I'm not sure if it's available on your part of the world.

I've seen the honor phone and it looks great however I'm a little skeptical about that 2gb ram paired with a 615 (same with the moto x). Im watching them closely however to see what they release next

If you want a better hardware you could consider the OP3 or the ZTE Axon 7, excellent specs for a fair price. I thought you were after a real mid-ranger when you mentioned the LG X Mach.

well im fine with a midranger but the X Mach has at least 3gb ram + a snapdragon 800 series processor, dual sim with dedicated sd slot which is closer to what i want. The other mid rangers have snapdragon 600 series chipsets.

OP3 has great build quality for sure. Axon 7 had a great deal a couple weeks ago and that one looked tempting but still couldnt pull the trigger on any of them

seems like the only other phone to have a dedicated sd slot with a sd 820 is the sony xperia x performance but its pricepoint is a joke. maybe im just too picky. since i dont want a sim2 shared sd card slot.

HTC One Me with a mediatek processor is also dual sim + dedicated sd slot but i cant find any root/roms for it. LOL MAYBE I am too picky.

update, ive settle on a sony xperia z3+. hopefully the overheating issues arent too big of a problem.
