No cons compared to single sim.
Pro that you can use two sims...except when you can't because you're using sim 2 slot for microSD card. Also often sim 2 is voice/SMS only and not data. |

Just looking for some points to help me decide where to buy a Moto G4, Tesco single SIM or Motorola UK dual SIM.

Cons they have terrible cameras and Battery life
They're just mostly not sold in the UK market, you have to import. |

Lots of high-end phones have dual SIM versions, like LG G5, Xperia Z3+, HTC One E9s, some Samsungs. So you can get get good cameras and standard battery life.

I have a Moto G 2nd gen (XT1068) with relatively low usage. One SIM is FreedomPop which gives me free data up to 200 MB/month. The other is Talkmobile Happy Hour (PAYG) for talk & text (10p/call, 4p/text).

True i was going on the Chinese phones which i have had a few and all have had terrible cameras and batterys.
Camera is good - not flagship standard, but good. Battery is excellent and beats my old S6 hands down with the same usage and apps. |

That's not my experience with the Honor 7.

I will go back to single sim at some point but at the moment it suits me down to the ground to be honest. Costs nothing to run on PAYG and is totally flexible. |
