A new mobile phone with the capacity for two SIM cards and an analogue TV receptor has been launched in South Africa, ThL Mobile said on Wednesday.
The phones will be able to receive and record ordinary television broadcasts from the SABC and e tv without paying a subscription fee, the company said in a statement.
“The infrastructure is already in place, there are no new standards that need to be enacted and the service is free to consumers,” said ThL Mobile director Corne Uys.
However, due to a licensing agreement with the SABC, people who purchase the new phone will be required to get a television licence.
Uys said the use of two SIM cards would be useful for South Africans who frequently travel.
“This is good news for people that travel over our borders often as it allows them to keep their two SIM Cards in one phone, without swapping phones or SIM cards,” he said.

nice phone if you look at the picture but the phone it self is so so crap. the internet doesnt work properly,you cant type a messege without the stick,the camera is shit,the screen is shit. i bought the phone 2 weeks ago and now im selling it. im loosing so much money over this phone. the guys out there stay with the local stuff and leave the imported phones.
I bought one of these phones too but the support was very bad, the phone is bad and needs an upgraded firmware. Very slow response from ther support staff.
