Software updates cam definitely tweak this as hardware support this. Hope they do it with dual 4G support.

I have a question about dual sim model. Do both sim card can work simultaneously eg. 3G like eg Xiaomi 5?
Most of dual models work with mode (2,3,4)G/2G or 2G/(2,3,4)G only.
Regards
One SIM must be in 2G. The other can be 2G/3G/4G.

Is that 2g , so no data phone only or just gprs?
I meant 2G as in phone or SMS only.

Any idea why is this limitation? I was trying to see it to LTE mainly to put that in VoLTE for calls and then realised either of the SIM only can be set to LTE.
On the XZ, I have sim1 on 4g and sim2 on 3g.

I've asked the same question to a Xperia rep. when I've purchased XZ dual in Hong Kong.
Both slots are 4G speeds, but if both slots are in use; highest speed of one slot is 4G and other limited to 3G max
They don't have 4G/4G support yet...
Hope this helps.
Well I was going to start a new thread, but this seems like the correct place to ask:
So if I have one sim dedicated to calls/text and a second sim just for data, the phone should operate the same as if I had only one sim which can do both phone and data?
Also if both sims are capable of handling calls, can i deactivate the phone of one sim card but keep the data active?
Is there any method to make both the sim cards to access 4g/3g network. Presently sim 1 only has access to 4g and sim 2 only 2g.

Currently, NO.
Among Honor/Huawei phones, only Recently launched mate 10 amd mate 10 pro has dual 4G Volte...rest all models just support only single 4G sim slot at a time.
Inorder to provide better battery efficiency Huawei provides 4G only on one sim at a time in all it's Honor devices except mate 10 and post models because a consumer mostly uses only 4G on a single sim at a time until recently.
I'm contemplating a purchase for a Mate 9 with dual SIM capability ( from Kogan Australia). It's advertised with dual SIM. For me, the secondary SIM would only add value if I can use it on 3G, while I keep the main SIM on 4G.
But in some documentation, the secondary SIM only supports 2G. Has anyone successfully used Mate 9 with 4G+3G SIM combination.

For sure....! I also think 4G+4G can work...
If the Australian version is the same as the European version it will support 2G, 3G and 4G on SIM 1 whilst SIM 2 will support 2G and 3G.

3G would be great on SIM 2. The problem I'm trying to solve is that our Australian telco ( Optus ) has severely degraded its own mobile network, to the point where we can't receive voice calls anywhere in our suburb. LTE used to work well, not any more. On the other hand, they improved somewhat on their 3G network. My wife is still in contract with cheap plan. So I could arrange a dual-SIM where SIM 1 is on 4G with another telco, while SIM 2 stays at 3G with the old telco. Things may improve for their network, or the company is going down, we shall see.
4G/3G is how it does it.
Both will support 4G but you'll need to put the switcher setting on your homescreen so you can switch quickly - you can't have both on 4G but both will support it. The other will be able to use 3G.
I'm on 5.1.9 but despite i activated the option only the Sim used for data traffic can actually connect to 4G. The other Sim seems forced and stuck in 3G at 900MHz (band 8)
There's no use for LTE on the phone sim unless you are lucky to live in China, India or Finland AND use a sim card of the view carriers supporting VoLTE in the OP6.
No sense reply. OP declares dual 4G on both Sim. My phone supports 4g only one sim and the worse the secondary sim is locked on 3G band 8
Are you using any custom rom? i faced similar issue on havoc rom

No. Pure stock 5.1.9
I had the same problem. But i went back to 5.1.8 and problem solved now dual 4g active.
Crazy but settings the phone on the English instead of my local language the problem seems gone.
I'm in America and I'm having the same problems after the 5.1.9 update, one SIM is always in regular GSM mode even with the dual-4G mode enabled.

That is completely false. Even T-Mobile in the US supports VoLTE. Even if it didn't though, it still allows for faster SIM switching since it was already on LTE.
Curious how you guys are checking it. Mine both say VoLTE and it seems to be fine for me.
I reset the network settings and it work for a few hours. The dual sim 4g instructions are broken .
I just heard it from one of the reviewers and I needed to confirm it from one of the experts here

Nope..you can just have 5g on one sim card available. Second sim can be still used for phone calls etc..
Hint: i am no expert...but common sense should apply
Yes 5g will disable other sim.Just tested

so you say when 5g is enabled, phone is only single sim? I thought one 4G + one 5G. Could you please try if SIM2 can work with 5G? or 5G has to be SIM1?

When 5g is enabled, phone is only single sim and sim1or2 doesn't really matter.
Yes poco said that when you use 5G phone will be single sim till they will give update that will make 1 sim 5G and other will be 4G
You just have to read the user guide.........
About Dual SIM:
• Supports Dual SIM cards with no carrier restrictions, single 5G or dual 4G
connectivity ①
• Supports Dual Nano-SIM card slots, either card can be set as the primary
card
• Supports single SIM 5G/4G+/4G/3G/2G
• Supports Dual SIM 4G+/4G/3G/2G
• Supports Dual SIM VoLTE HD calling ②
Note ①: 5G support depends on the local telecom operator’s network; if
the primary card 5G is enabled, the secondary card will not be available;
subsequent software upgrades will include support for primary 5G and
secondary 4G/3G/2G card mode function in dual-card situations.
Note ②: VoLTE service availability depends on the local telecom operator’s
network and service deployment
Not so complicate....
So according to the user manual dual sim support while 5g enabled is coming with a future update? the phone is five months old, did the promised update come through yet? are all other ROMs available for this device have the same issue?
The promised update is yet to come .

The phone was launched 5 months ago but probably due to the pandemic there is surprisingly little development and discussion from the community's side. Barely 4 roms.
I have been waiting 2 months now to upgrade because there is no way I ever use MIUI.
Last week LineageOS was released, but it's Android 10, and only initial build.
I will probably wait or lineageOS 18 before I buy this phone, but this means waiting few months the way things are going.
Dont forget that very few people use dual sim on their phone... Not a priority to fix ;o)

I would say there are more dual sim users than 5G users, maybe that's it.
