Discover the full potential of your new "intelligent" phone. Compared to the usual mono SIM Smartphones, NGM Dynamic Wide offers the convenience of Dual SIM that has always characterized the entire range of NGM phones, i.e. the ability to handle two SIM cards and consequently two telephone numbers at the same time.
