[Question] Best 5"-5.2" phone with Dual-SIM+SD
#1
Thumbs Down 
What phone will satisfy my Urge to Upgrade my Phone(innjoo fire pro)?
I am not a fan of big screens and all phones seem to be going up I believe the sweet spot is still at the 5-5.2 space.
RAM and ROM must be 3G
The BluBoo Xtouch seems perfect are there any alternates similar to this one?

Not sure it will give you 7-9 SOT, or that camera will be great, but should be good enough. Bluboo Xtouch looks like a good choice for you.

Still quite limited. Most phones are single and TF or dual only.

maybe u can let go of the dual-sim... I thought I needed dual-sim, then after going single sim found it wasn't as important as I thought....

or consider a 64gb storage so don't need to worry about TF.

Thanks Cookiedough the latter may be more probable but it drives up the Cost soo much. The Dual Sim is a Necessity where I live. I don't have Cable internet and only one of our providers offers the right internet package for my internet needs but his call quality and coverage is not the best and the provider with the good Call quality and coverage does not have good internet Packages(They take advantage).

All phones are a compromise however the Xiaomi Redmi Pro seems the closest to your needs in that price range. Especially with its superb battery life.

I agree with Twotems. Either Redmi Note 3 Pro or Redmi Pro. Redmi Note 3 Pro 3gb 32gig only $160 or so now. It's an awesome bargain. Can always put a SD card in once in awhile or connect to PC and offload all your photo media or whatever. Or use cloud storage to help with the load. Take pictures at 1-8mp instead of 13mp helps a ton.

Ahh. Hmm. Now I see 5.0-5.2... Forgot about that part. I like smaller too, but have lived with 5.5" and don't even think twice about it. The problem is the 5.0-5.2 are either too budget, or too expensive. Not many middle of the road priced 5.0-5.2 these days.

That's why I said the Redmi Pro and not the Note 3 Pro. In that size range it's a good choice.

Redmi Pro is 5.5". Redmi 3 is 5.0". Redmi 3 is prohibitively sluggish, but haven't tried Redmi 3c.

I've been looking for the same-ish specs as well but I'm ok with a 5.5 screen and not bothered about finger print id ,I have a Zenfone 2 at the moment that starting to play up I would like a dual sim plus dedicated sd card slot and the ability to root but theres not much choice apart from an Elephone P8000 a few Cubots or another Zenfone.
