CMF Phone 2 Pro - online specs re dual SIM / microSD misleading

Hey Team Nothing / CMF,

I wanted to share with you that the specs for the CMF Phone 2 Pro on your website are misleading. I ended up returning the CMF Phone 2 Pro 128GB and ordering a Nothing Phone 3a 256GB because I couldn’t use 2 SIMs (I live between two countries) and 1 microSD card (I carry music on-board for long flights).

Whilst the website says:

dual SIM card slots
expandable memory via microSD card slot

… nowhere does it say that the SIM2 slot and the microSD card slot are actually the same, ie. a hybrid slot. So the user actually has only the following options:

1 SIM card + 1 microSD card
2 SIM cards + no memory expansion

Suggest you adjust your marketing materials to somehow explain the hybrid nature of this slot.

Hope this is useful feedback for you, I was disappointed at the time but ultimately happy with the 3a (albeit at greater expense)!

PS - even the 256GB capacity is going to be cutting it fine, assuming this handset lasts me at least 2-3 years like mine normally do. I still think microSD expansion or alternatively greater onboard storage is a critical feature for many users, cloud is nice but not always practical in all use cases.

To be fair, this is the same for many phones, especially budget models. But I agree it should be clearer in the specifications. Enjoy your 3a! I bought a full-fat (3) and love it.
