Windows Phone dual SIM handsets - recommendations and reviews

Surprised by the lack of love for Windows Phone here. In my experience, it's a lot more tightly coded and in many ways better-thought-out than Android. Among other things, having your start screen display useful information ("Live Tiles") rather than simply rows of icons (and information-only "widgets") is a big plus.

The reason why there are not many dual-SIM WP handsets is that the feature has only been supported from WP 8.1. The Nokia 630 is the first. But other manufacturers, such as Hisense and Presitigio, have dual-SIM WP phones. Expect more of them now that Microsoft has come to its senses on licensing (= now free) and hardware requirements (= same as Android).
