Hi, I bought mine in Switzerland since I couldn't get one from France. It's an amazing phone compare to what I was used to (Wiko Cink Peax). Very fast and fluid as you would expect from the specs.
I have two SIMs installed and it works as expected, like any other dual sim phone. Whenever you want to place a call or send an SMS, you just pick the SIM you want to use.
When you receive a phone call, you can tell which SIM it comes from, you can even have different ring tones depending of the SIM/Contact, but I think this is an Android feature and has nothing to do with HTC.
I like my phone to live off the grid, but once in a while, it needs to be charged. I was afraid that with such a huge screen and fast processor, I would charge it way too often. Especially since the battery is only 2600 mAh, it's clearly not competing in the top 10 biggest battery of the year. But it was a very pleasant surprise. The power management is quite interesting, and progressively turns off anything you don't seem to use to save energy. So even when you have a warning stating you have only 14% of battery left, you can still last half a day before you need to recharge. But don't expect to surf, or watch videos for a long time after that warning. If you sole goal is to wait until later to charge, and receive phone calls in the mean time, you shouldn't be disappointed.
The dual camera is kinda neat, but it's a gadget. After a month or two, you realize you will need this bokeh effect only once in a while. But the flash is good and pictures are really easily taken, whatever the conditions are. Results are good for such a small lense (this coming from someone who uses a Canon EOS 7D as his regular camera).
The sound of this HTC One M8 is amazing. First of all, they included two speakers on the front, which I found really annoying, since I presume people will start to use it as a boom box in the transportation, and I will hate HTC for that... But the sound is cristal clear, even with the volume to the max. So playing a video for friends in a crowded bar is still possible. Interestingly enough, when you play your MP3, the visualizer downloads the lyrics of whatever is playing and scrolls them it as they are spoken, giving you the opportunity to sing along.
I bought the HTC dot view cover. I read the it would be a mess because of all the holes, that they would grab all dirt laying around, and so. Well, I don't know if people actually tried the cover before writing that down, or maybe it's because they live in a mess much worse than mine, but I have no such complain to make. Yesterday it was Halloween, and whenever I would double tap on the screen to wake up the phone and look at the watch, I would see an animated skeleton in the morning and a sort of speaking pumpkin in the evening ;) now I'm eager to see what's on christmas... Not very useful, but I appreciated the intention.
The only drawbacks I see so far are the following :
- whenever some leaves you a message, you are prompted to call your answering machine. But it's always the same answering machine the message refers to. So you need to check which SIM was used to pick up the right number. Nothing serious, but why would they leave such an obvious bug behind?
- Gestures. It's fine, but there is one particular gesture (swipe from top to bottom) which is suppose to trigger the vocal dialing. Alas, it crashes each and every time. I have call the support line, followed all their instructions, and even did a huge amount of factory reset to find what was causing the bug. I did find that once I insert a second SIM card, it crashes when I swipe down. With one Sim card no problem at all, it works as expected. And quite well in fact.

With your setup, i.e. GSM + GSM, the phone works in Dual-Standby mode. Whereas, I use CDMA(slot 1) + GSM (slot 2) and the phone works in Dual-Active mode.
