By
        Hello Buddies !! You must have heard or seen hybrid SIM card slot in that latest smartphones a lot but still most of the users are still confused what a hybrid SIM slot is and how to use it. So here in this post I will tell you what a hybrid SIM slot really is so that you do not remain in any confusion when buying your new Smartphone. Also here I will discuss about the various advantages and disadvantages of a Hybrid SIM Slot.

What is a Hybrid SIM Card Slot?

       A Hybrid SIM Slot is one which can function both as a SIM card slot and a microSD card slot. This means you can either put another SIM in a hybrid SIM slot and use your phone as a dual SIM smartphone or you can put a microSD card in it for expanding the memory of your phone. The Hybrid SIM slot can be a separate slot or can be present on a SIM card tray where the other normal SIM card slot is also present. Next I will tell you about the various combinations of Hybrid SIM card slot with the other SIM card slot.


Hybrid SIM Slot Combinations in Dual SIM Phone

       Here are the various combinations of a hybrid SIM card slot with other normal SIM slot.
sim-card-sizes
Micro SIM + Nano SIM / microSD card
Nano SIM + Nano SIM / microSD card

Advantages of Hybrid SIM Slot

        The main advantage of hybrid SIM card slot is that it saves space on smartphones for the manufacturers, which can help them to make the phone much slimmer and also reduce some of the circuitry involved. There is virtually no advantage of Hybrid SIM card slot to the users as it only limits the features as discussed below.

Disadvantages of Hybrid SIM Slot

        The main disadvantage of hybrid SIM slot is that it limits your phone functionality i.e. you can either use your smartphone as a dual SIM phone or you can expand the storage through microSD card. You can cannot use both these features simultaneously which is a major drawback of hybrid SIM slot.

Final Words about Hybrid SIM card Slot

        Here I would like to say that I am not a fan of Hybrid SIM card slot as it restricts something on your phone. Also you cannot do anything about it if it is present in the phone that you are going to buy. Here you have to be intelligent and think about your requirements and use the Hybrid SIM slot as per your needs i.e. you have to make a decision that whether you need dual SIM functionality or want extra storage space on your phone.
