Interresting. You can dial *#0011# on your dialer and do a screenshot on both s20 and s21 then maybe we can see why that is. Maybe the s21 aggregates more bands? I would also love to see what you get on 5G. Word of advice though, use the mybb speed test app as that doesn't use data on MTN. Not sure of other speed test traffic
FYI, i have a Vodacom branded Note 20 Ultra 5g which is dual sim.Please help me to activate dual sim on Vodacom contract phone [Note10] | Tech support & Hardware Advice
Thanks Ebrahim. How do I remove forced encryption? I will add that this phone is brilliant even with Vodacom bloatware. Im not sure how to do it with Odin but with TWRP you can use the console to deisbale forced encryption. I havent done this myself since I havent needed to flash anything in a...carbonite.co.za
Hopefully that's changed with the S21 but I won't hold my breath with Vodacom
And Just Received from telkom through Courier IT
Me - You have to get a phone call . the first time I applied went nowhere ( no Call) .
eish thanks will try again. Never got the call
Also just received mine nowAnd Just Received from telkom through Courier IT
When did you apply?
about 2 weeks ago
The best thing to do is phone their sales department directly. I did my pre order the day after launch and never got a call back. I eventually phoned them and was told to re-apply for the pre-order. Applied again and still no call. Yesterday I gave up and phoned their sales department. Got the pre-order done in a few minutes. Now I am just waiting for delivery.
gees this is turning into a mission as well, been trying to get through for ages
How did you check?Just received my S21+ from MTN.
First thing I checked was whether the dual-sim functionality was blocked, and I'm happy to report that it's not, picking up both sim-card slots. Happiness!
I ordered the same deal and colour from IC on Friday evening as well. Mine is with the courier, so expecting it tomorrow. Did you receive a Gift card? Their adverts online indicate an IC gift card.Mine arrived today from Incredible Connection and appears to be a VC phone with physical dual sim, cool double sided tray instead of the normal long one. Supposed to have an extra R1000 voucher for IC aswell, but will see....
Pre ordered it on Friday evening last week.
Not much of a leap from the S20 and mostly feels the same... Though I've noticed the finger print reader is MUCH faster, the adaptive 120Hz display is nice though seems to be a gimmick, plastic back feels good in the hands, 3 camera lenses I feel are better than the big glass lens that cover them on s20, noticeably faster than S20 too and seems to run cooler, though I'll probably only test this theory when I get a case for it and start using it, hopefully before I have to give my old employer their S20 back so I can do a proper review.
Only hassle is... No covers available apart from a select few at Takealot, no clear case included anymore either
On the plus side, the flat edge is a pleasure to hold with no case
It picks up both sim-card trays in the settings, and I've inserted two sim-cards earlier as well and both are working just fine.
