Why is Samsung so behind in the dual Sim settings game? Why don't they let me select a default Sim for texting calling & data like literally every other phone manufacturer does?
In every other phone, in the Sim manager, you can select a default Sim for data, default Sim for messaging, and a default Sim for calling. In other regions even Samsung has this options. But for the USA they remove it and only let you pick a Sim for all 3 in a single toggle.
Yes, you can do per contact, but so can every other phone. When I dial a number, I just want it to use my default without me thinking about it.
This is a big problem. I tried getting help from Samsung support. To their credit they said it should have separate settings for calls/data and data per SIM- per the manual.
Just cannot figure out why it is not available in the US.
I noticed this issue back in July. However, now I see a new option that I did not see back then. With both eSIMs on, one of them preferred for everything, I can turn off roaming data for that eSIM. Then in Mobile Networks you can do Connect to data networks while roaming per eSIM. That just might do the trick, in a convoluted way. At least I didn't see this back in July.
