"microSD, up to 1 TB (uses shared SIM slot) - dual SIM model only"

What this means? So I can buy 1 TB memory for LG G5, but what is this "dual SIM model only"? So not all 1 TB microSD be OK?
 
Whether all 1TB cards would be okay is a separate question. The point that they're presumably making is that only dual-SIM versions of the phone will accept such cards.
 
Welcome to Android Central! I think what they mean is that on the dual-SIM version only, the SD card has to share a SIM slot. On the single SIM version, the card has its own slot. According to T-Mobile's official support site, their G5 (which is not dual-SIM) supports up to 2 TB (which is the limit for all SDXC cards -- the reason why manufacturers say it'll support up to less than that, like 1 TB or 500 GB, could be due to the lack of availability of cards that big, or it could be due to not having officially tested a card that big).
