We've been seeing lot of new phones in the market lately, but a glance at the Microsift Lumia 640 specs, its solid construction, and the fact that it runs on the latest Windows Phone -8.1 OS with Lumia Denim update may make you readily shell out some funds for an extra phone.
A phone packed with features can come real handy, especially for multi-tasking working professionals, students and even housewives. The various Microsoft Lumia 640 specs, that include a five-inch LCD screen with Gorilla Glass 3, 720×1280-pixel resolution, an 8-Megapixel camera and 1.2GHz Snapdragon quad-core processor, make it a covetable gadget.
The 4G budget smartphone will cost a little over $129 from the carrier Cricket. Lumia 640, reports say, may be purchased from T-Mobile by mid-July in the US at a lower cost.
The Lumia 640 smartphone will come with 12 months' free subscription to Microsoft Office 365 Personal. The phone has 8GB built-in storage capacity. It all translates to huge value for money. With every upside comes a downside. In the case of the Lumia 640, the app store experience may leave much to be desired, but most people can live with that, especially if they're toting around more than one phone.
In terms of overall look and feel, Microsoft Lumia 640 does not disappoint. If you don't like big phones, therein lies the problem, being on the wide side. The Lumia 640 is a wee bit slimmer than Lumia forerunners, though, with a thickness of 8.8mm. It's generally easy to hold. Connectivity can be a breeze and battery life is good. There's a battery saver feature, too, and most of the materials used are PVC- and BFR-free. Moreover, the phone material's totally recoverable, meaning if the unit is discarded, it won't be a big polluter. Talk about green electronics!
Customer satisfaction ultimately depends on the user's phone usage. If you tend to use your smartphone a great deal for taking snapshots, recording video, making calls, texting, and browsing social media sites and websites, then the phone's battery will drain rather fast, compared to other new-generation phones.
