Cherry Mobile P8 - One of the Smallest Dual Sim Cellphone Available

Usually, most of us prefer multiple cellphone service providers either smart, globe, sun, tm or tnt not just for back-up purpose, but for cheaper text/call rate. For women, it easy to have multiple cellphones because they usually bring bags, but for us guys we don't usually bring bags unless we are in travel. Guys prefer to place their cellphone in their pockets or cellphone holder in belt. It is easy for us to move freely without bringing any bags.

On my personal experience, I wanted also to have tm/globe sim so I can call/text my friends in that network at cheaper rate. My problem is my primary cellphone (Galaxy Note) was quite big. Placing a secondary cellphone in my pocket wont fit. I remember my friend (jas) who uses a small cellphone as a back-up phone. I went in the mall and try to find a small cellphone also. I tried looking at nokia, myphone, torque and cherry mobile. Only cherry mobile has the smallest cellphone available in that mall and it is P8 and P7. Cherry Mobile P7 was cute but a little bit girly. I decided to buy the P8 unit, even though it has many colors to choose from, only red was available.
