  • Dear windows phone is now dead beter to buy new phone.Buy Nokia 8.1 the best phone under 20K and 6.1 Plus under 15K.

  • I got this phone today . Obviously it has been used before by someone else. But I love it that's why I bought this. It came with Windows Phone 8.1 with denim. I wanted to ask if it is worth the update to windows 10 ? Thanks

  • download upgrade advisor app from windows store and run it to ensure if device can up-gradable then close app and go to setting phone update and run update process it will upgrade to windows 10.

  • I bought this phone in March 2016. Just because my father was not that much socialist (as far as phone), so I bought this. And I heard very good reviews about The Lumia Series. Today also, some people are there who says Lumia is a very good phone. But, as per my overall experience, Microsoft has stopped the production as well as customer support for the existing mobiles phones. Here are only few Advantages: 1. Big screen, smooth access and nice picture quality. 2. Doesn't get hang by any technical problem. 3. Good battery backup. Disadvantages (or current problems): 1. No app support even for existing apps. 2. After updating to Windows 10 and even before that, Facebook doesn't work properly. 3. No Youtube app 4. As far as Whatsapp, it works very slow. We cant forwrd the message or media file to Broadcast list. 5. No defined memory status. Very confusing. I cant see files in the folders. Only images in the Gallery. 6. Very poor customer support

  • No , I personally would not advise anyone to buy this phone. Worse if u are a social network whizz.

  • I love this phone. Very very stylish and beautiful. Perfect display. I wonder I had any problems with upgrading it to W10 upon many others opinion. No restart no hang no lag compare to android phones. The ram is enough for running W10 smoothly. Good for games and totally I am really satisfied with my phone. Sorry why Microsoft stopped its mobile phone branch. It would be perfect with little more trial and error. I hope Microsoft shopping another winphone in 2018. The important problem with windows phone os is the lack of application in store which is annoying. Els every other things are perfect

  • Who told you that Windows mobile is death?? Foolish...You will see, How many Wondering are still to come, from Windows....

  • Please I have issues with my hotspot. It is not working and I cannot connect any device to it. Please can someone help me with any advice. I really need to get my hotspot working again.

  • Lot Of Apps This Phone Not Support. Very Poor Technology But Phone Protection Is Very Good. Several Time I`m Fall Down My Phone But No Matter Because It Have Very Tuff Glass. Totally It Not A Good Mobile.

  • Microsoft lumia 640 dual sim is worst phone . I purchased it 1.5 years back . From inception it worked poor. after upgrading to ver 10 it became a rubbish stupid staff . Microsoft may be a giant company worldwide but to a small user like me , it is nothing but an ogre company . Now my phone suddenly gone black and not booting and charging rather vibrates in a pulsating way when connected to charger . I met the dealers . None can give me the solution . Even in internet no solution as given there is working .

  • I also upgraded window 10 but it gives lots of prob,bugs. Then I downgrade to window 8.1 ..now it is better than window 10..watch on YouTube how to downgrade.

  • Is LTE Support for 640 xl dual sim (Or Jio Sim) (Because one option is in phone #Mobile & Sime # Sim1 Setting # Default APN # View # One check box is there Use this APN for LTE and replace the one from my mobile operator)

  • Have had this just over 2 years, at the time the best value 5.7" phone I could find. All going well until the last month or so. For some reason my keyboard would just stop working, music would stop playing when browsing, FM Radio just disappeared, browsing was very slow, Camera sometimes would not open and lately the phone would just go grey and I needed to restart. For the money though, close to years was pretty good. Have upgraded now to an LG G6, still a 5.7" screen with a different aspect ratio, so far so good, a really nice phone at a decent price.

  • A very good phone compared with its price. I bought it more than 2 years ago (Apr. 2015), and it is still. Its camera is good in both photos and videos. about 6 months ago, I upgraded it to Windows 10. The only downside after two years is that the battery became weaker, especially with games, 3G, and bluetooth open.

  • It's a disgrace to hold or use 640xl nowadays, as Windows and Microsoft have been laid to Rest. Pathetic!

  • I would 😀

  • Awesome phone, I bought this phone two years ago and still works like new.. Very productive device.

  • Would anybody like to receive it as a gift, just shipping!

  • Yeah same

  • I Liked this Phone at the first.But as the time passed on i started to hate this phone a lot. Thus is because the apps in the Phone when clicked are not opening and even when i uninstall it and reinstall them they are not working.. Im starting to hate the Windows os. They are not fit for smartphones . People stop buying windows phone for their performance.If you are in need of a phone with good screen quality and camera Quality alone you can go for these phones

  • WP app store- the stars are not reliable, search function sucks Lumia 640xl- screen & battery great, but lags a lot, keyboard sucks, apps not stable, even whatsapp always suddenly shutdown. Apps so limited n not very compatible with this phone. Overall - 5/10

  • I'm demolarised to buy Lumia 640 XL dual sim because of many issues people give about it.The worst part is that Microsoft Company pays deaf-ears to your issues and they can't do anything about it.I thought Nokia has changed in terms of its sub-standardising of phones.After upgrade to window 10,it develops problem.

  • I bought Microsoft 640xl mobile before 2yrs with price approx Rs.15000/-. That time Rear camera's picture quality is awesome but now its gradually getting worse. Front camera is not good as before. Now in low light, picture is dark and picture quality is not good. But battery is too good. I always use net in my mobile and till now it gives backup 1 day. Recently I am facing a problem that is update problem. This mobile's operating system was windows 8.1 but suddenly it stops work and then update to windows 10. Whereas its internal memory is only 8 gb and windows 10 system size is approx 6gb so I can't download necessary apps in this mobile like whatsapp, facebook etc. It's too bad for me. If I can't use this mobile as a smart phone then why I suggest to anyone for buying this product. I think it should have internal memory at least 16GB with this price.

  • Lumia 640 xl is nice phone,hardware Build quality ALSO great! In mid range phones.it give us windows 10 beautiful interface but apps are sucks. I wonder why Microsoft (legend).can't create stable operating system like IOS and ANDROID..... But still I love 💘 it.

  • Bought this phone for approx 200€ back in 2015 in Germany and for first 9 months I was really pleased with it. At the time I was looking for a phone with a large screen size so I can review Excel files and occasionally read a book. I was going for Samsung Note 4 but when I looked at this I realized that it can suite me fine for half a price of Samsung Note4. Come spring of 2016, the update for Widows 10 came out and with it a lot of problems. Updates were coming out once or twice a month and I had no way of stopping it. With nearly every update I had to do a factory reset (which brings Windows 10 and not old Windows 8) in order for phone to work as intended. After a year of torture with updates finally the phone started working as the day I bought it. Lack of apps was something I knew before I bought the phone so this was not an issue for me. I tend to use the phone for communication (calls, messages, WatsApp, Skype, Viber but no Facebook), as a music player, reviewing office documents (MS Office) and reading books. I don't play games and the phone provided comfortable experience for me. 1GB of ram seems to be fine on Widows OS. One thing I really was annoyed with is that there is no way for you to protect your files due to the way the OS is set up. I never used any protection for the phone and I've dropped it countless times with just a few scratches on the plastic back cover. Until couple of days ago when I dropped it just the right way and glass shattered. With repair costing of approx 80€ I don't think I'll be repairing it and with a great range of Android phones within the same price range for a new phone, I don't think I'll be be buying a Windows phone again.

  • you guys whin so much abt windows phone yet windows os is the most stable,secure and most popular worldwide.microsoft hardwares are the most resilient on phones,the screen technology the best.app store,how many apps do you need in your phone?100? because that will make your phone an apps store itself.give microsoft phones a break.those who buy them have solid reasons for doing so despite your discouraging efforts that you have been running for years.windows phone are still the best..that is why business men(those who really value money unlike you) still go for them.

  • how do i update my phone with windows 10 and also my facebook app is not updated with latest version .. need help

  • I've been using Microsoft Lumia 640 XL Dual Sim more than 1 year. It is nice but poor apps can be installed since the microsoft store itself doesn't provide my required apps. It always forced close and i dunno why. sometimes, if your phone memory is full, it will be 'hang' and you need to on-off the phone. you need to transfer the memory into other device first, then your lumia can run normally. anyway, the battery is long lasting, the gorilla screen protector is very good and protecting. the tiles appearance is also attractive. thank you!

  • Microsoft 640xl is very nice. I upgraded my phone to windows 10 and it working very very than before. Battery life is just normal because I turned off any of my apps running on the underground.

  • A 650$ device launched, within months Windows broke record of under 1%of OS. Now Nokia sold back to original owners, just launched N6 in China! World is crazy. MS is doomed in smart phones business. Only HP has launched but failed.

  • i cant understand front cam of 640xl poor camera and phone is good microsoft pls close windows phone and cant cheat to people

  • The Radio app is still there!check your update again!

  • how to check whether a lumia 640xl is fake or not

  • So, why Microsoft missed the Radio app in giving windows 10 updates? after all radio is in specs sheet everywhere, giving updates by cutting other specs? Its already a app shortage for MS, really shy away to give full blown features. video playback music email net is so MS dependant, MS itself not really providing these smooth functions. So how Windows phone sell?

  • It so seems that Maaz is a Man of Asking rather than a man of Reading!!I explained Everything in detail for you at this page! you just need to try and try! so take photo at various light situation with your cam! you have to test repeatedly! no matter if some of the photos would come unpleasant!delete them!but by practicing this way you will be more familiar with the buttons and settings of the camera!dont worry!You have to practice! thats all!

  • front cam setting on front camin 640xl what can i do clear explain pls

  • That seems sufficient! so there should be a problem with your network! Is it a wifi internet or just a cellphone career internet?! Its rather safe to use a wifi internet to upgrade operating system than cellphone career internet.On wifi it should go smooth and safe! but if that problem you mentioned would happen again then back up your contacts.messages and data and do a factory reset and then start to upgrading again! this time everything should be going well!let me now!!

  • my free internal storage more than 2.5 G B

  • First of all!! check if your internal storage is almost full?! or there is sufficient storage for the download to come and to be installed!!

  • Pleas listen carefully, Rules in photography are the same! weather it would be rear camera,front camera or a professional DSLR/SLR camera!!The settings on your lumia cam is the same and just the visor is different!

  • in front camera what setting in low light pls tell me detail not rear cam

  • Help please my Phone on build 10 . 0.14393.726 I want to Update to build number 14965 I tried many times , every time stop at 80% or 93% any suggestions to download the update successful

  • ok i try my640xl front cam in this ratio

  • press camera icon on your Lumia 640 then you would see yourself on the display,At the right side of the display there is a vertical column including A flash symbol,A timer symbol,WB symbol(white balance), which is preset on Auto,A circle symbol for focusing also prest on Auto,An ISO letter which is very important and both for daylight or night mode and also Acting scene like sport photography,which is also on Auto mode.the next symbol is shutter speed which defines the duration which light should pass through lense to the subject you wouldlike to take photo and is for professional people who are familiar with photography,and the last symbol is for the display brightness which controls the visibility of subjects on your camera display.At the moment I think it is better for you to start with auto mode for all except for white balance and iso and Focus,when you touch WB it offers you various lighting source such as Sun symbol for outdoor daylight photography,A cloud symbol for the time when it is a cloudy weather with no sun,a bulb light symbol and a tungesten light symbol which depends on the indoor light of the place you are going to take photo and.And for day light the iso should be set to 100 and at night it should be normally on 400 depending on the movement of your subject it may goes higher up to 1000.I think I explained enough if you would like to start as a beginner!agreed?!

  • what ratio set in both pls answer me in low light front cam i try but not adjust

  • Am using MS Lumia 640 XL. it's some how complicated. Facebook, gmail, yahoo, LinkedIn. doesn't work when downloading the app. and i cant access some basic apps here. Is there any one who can advice me what to do?

  • Take a look at my Answer on Page 1 on 1/27/2017

  • Dude Its not a matter of operating systems! regardless of your operating system your chat history is on the Servers of your chatting Freewares!So whatever operating system you would use then you can have all your chat history on it!

  • You should not use Automatic WB(white balance) and Sesetivity(ISO) while you are taking photo under Low light situations!even Professional Cameras can not take good picture with Automatic Status! Automatic is just for daylight(though I prefere not use it at all!)Try using Manual WB and Sensetivity and then you can have very good Quality photos.You need to test and examine Manual photography and I think you never forget it!

  • I have got Both Lumia1520 and 640XL.Though the prices are different but the performance and Quality is almost the same! I mean with a lower price for 640XL you can almost have got the same as Lumia1520.I have to mention ofcourse I never use my phones for games!I use it mostly for Reading.Networking,Photography and watching Video.They are really great though there may be some weaknesses with Winphone operating system But Im sure they will soon solve the Issues with winphones.Thanks Microsoft&Thanks GSM.

  • Its not a problem with your winphone microsoft640.the problem is with Whatsup itself! you have to wait for a bug fix and update by whatsup! sometimes freeware producers can not keep up with operating system makers and developers!Certainly you do not have any problem with IMO,Telegram,Line,WeChat and so on!

  • Go to settings then email+Accounts the add your gmail acount and remember to set your account (downloading emails all time)

  • If current OS is window 8.1 , then Download upgrade advisor from store. Then run it , after that it will show , device is ready to upgrade to window 10 . Then go to settings there you can see update, there click on phone update and run. Before running it have some memory on phone about 2Gb free. And save your data like photoes song video etc if you have saved it on phone . Because it will reset your phone. If you have memory card and data in it then you should remove sd card if you are going to upgrade to window 10. Otherwise it will reset your sd card too.

  • Download and install Upgrade Advisor via Store need empty space 1.5Gb Make sure your device WP 8.1 is the updated version Make sure your battery is fully charged Windows Phone Prepare the USB data cable and internet quota sufficient

  • You have to go into the contact page to access the video calls, click on the name of the person the person you are chatting with and you have the video and phone icon.

  • Lumia 640 XL Dual SIM is an awesome product launched by Microsoft Corporation. It's features is also unique in the world. Although Windows 10 is very nice, but there exist some problems. I hope Microsoft Corporation recover this problem as early as soon. . Long Live Lumia 640 XL Dual SIM.

  • i m using this phone for abour 2 yrs and works nice . and i m having same problem with yahoo account not sync from 4 to 5 months ( previously i can access yahoo acc.) but other account i can access like hotmail nd gmail.

  • Windows 10 is a disaster and everybody who upgrades experiences many problem that make the phone almost unusable especially battery Avoid the problems of then using the WDRT to revert back to W8 Visit the Microsoft forum to check out what WILL go wrong Remember that W10 was supposed to work on all phones models 70% were cut from this list.

  • Delete browsing history Then go to Storage Sense temporary files delete you have to do this for both phone and SD card System file size is directly proportional to your app and app data If you are running out of space still after going the above 3 you need to factory reset Before you factory reset you MUST transfer apps from the card to the phone as you will NOT be able restore the apps to the phone and have to download... Then you will get a message that the SD card had apps already installed so you then will gave to format the card so losing the apps with app data Apps without app data can be deleted as not necessary. Apps with App data take priority when you transfer these to the phone Remember to then Back up...

  • Does this phone have the setting for call recording?! Thanks in advance.

  • Agreed 100%. I have been using LGG4 which has supposed to be an excellent camera 16MP with f/1.8. But the fact is its camera is almost as good as Lumia 640XL 13MP camera (f/2.0). Androids are the most over rated phones in the market. I can say after using Windows Phones for 2.5 years and 4 years use of Android. Androids performance is inconsistent, major flaws when comes to word prediction in keyboard app, one needs to install app to add feature whereas in WP almost everything is here built in. Facebook integration in Peoples app is amazing in WP (nothing like this in Android or iPhone). I have recently purchased Lumia 640XL after using LGG4 as i was having horrible experience of its official use. Mainly i am going back to Windows because of Outlook app which is not the same as one available on Android. Android is so not for official use. It totally sucks. However, i will keep the LGG4 for games and youtube (that runs awesome btw).

  • I not use share it app on my Lumia 640XL...

  • You need to buy the LTE version for that.

  • Will it be unlocked to lte mode or 4g"?????

  • LOL, Mate the phone you have is broken, have mine for at least 1 year and fully working already with Windows 10 Mobile. Get your phone to be fixed and stop winning.

  • Great phone it is, its completely time saving because you cnt share on share it, cnt play any vedio, cant delete your memory, cant edit any files , no official use, just pick up calls and say speak loudly and I m not able to save any number till your call end, nothing else. Great phone BC I am using Lumia 640 xl , LULL phone Bc

  • Hard Reset, that should fix.

  • dears i used WP for long time but my lumia 640xl don't completed 100% charging just stopped in 75% how i can solve this problem

  • Camera quality is not so good, limited features with camera And 4G not supported as well. One of the worst phone I've ever used.

  • NEVER EVER BUY THIS PHONE. Aside from battery life the phone is totally useless. Hangs,slow,navigation is whacked,slips,horrible speakers. Don't buy

  • Hardware has nothing to do with its os my friend many say windows 10 is good

  • There is 2 model Dual SIM with 4G LTE and another one is without 4G LTE.

  • Do hard reset then install update advisor most probably it will work in your device and fix all existing error too.

  • 640 XL dual LTE will support 4G .640 XL dual support only 3G connectivity

  • I have a Microsoft Lumia 640XL. The phone is awesome, but the only problem I am facing for a long time is I cannot install any app. Even Microsoft Upgrade Advisor cannot be installed. It starts downloading and stops at "Attention required. Tap here" for all the apps, and it is just impossible to install. Does someone have a solution. I do not want to go for an android or iOS phone.

  • I have microsoft lumia 640xl is it support 4g or not anyone can tell me?

  • Microsoft Lumia 640XL...one of the best Microsoft has ever produced currently,the part that amazes me is the 13mp camera which is far more better than any Android I've ever seen when compared,take a picture with both phones (Android and windows)zoom in to its limit,and you'll see the difference crystal clear,I took most of the pictures to a photo studio to process the hard copy and everybody in the lab was like WOW!amazing,lots of praises for this camera.another amazing feature is the 1gb ram which runs as smooth as silk as though it's 4gb ram and also the errand app Cortana...the only flaws is that there are fewer app in windows market compared to Android play store...am not forgetting the fact that it doesn't contact virus at least non that I've experienced within the 1 year of purchase of this product...just wish windows market can compete with Android market...❤

  • For me take 5hours or sometimes 6:30 it is not supported fast charging.. Unfortunately :(

  • Please any one can tell me how many hours it take to get to 100% charge

  • I have a lumia 640 it is a good and best phone

  • Dear . you can file transfer using with shareit app

  • Well I seriously don't understand about how people come up with so many negative feedbacks for this awesome product. I was an android user, few things that I experianced with android. 1. Android requires heavy hardware as compared to windows 2. Lags frequently and heats up 3. Battery backup is bad Windows On the other hand: 1 Requires less hardware to handle complex tasks and GPU requirements (My 1 GB ram can handle modern combat 5 blackout, GT Racing 2, Sniper Fury, Asphalt 8 airborne with ultimate ease, if I have to go for an android device which does the same, I would require 3 gb ram and a latest chipset for which I will end up paying atleast 2-3 times the same amount. 2. Battery lasts and lasts, it's the least power hungry OS 3. Even inspite of gaming for hrs together, phone doesn't get heated up.

  • You are wrong bro. Am from Nigeria and lives in Nigeria. You can upgrade your phone to windows 10. Just go to store and download the upgrade advisor and follow the steps. Then go back to settings and update your phone. As simple as that. I have been using windows 10 for over a month now and its perfect.

  • My Dear Friends Pleas Tell Me Once..... How To use Pendrive,

  • I have Microsoft lumia 640XL it support to 3G whether it can be support to new 4G sim

  • Y did Nokia join MICROSOFT co's all my phones was Nokia Lumia not Microsoft Lumia

  • Thanks😊

  • I'm using this phone running on W10 and yes, it does support Panorama. About the overall performance: It runs pretty smoothly I could say but you should have a MicroSD card ready because there are still a lot of Windows updates and it consumes a nice amount of storage. Good luck! :)

  • can anyone tell me that is this phn supports panorama on windows 10 mobile camera?? and what is the overall performance of this phn on win 10??

  • Use imo for video call

  • I can't use this phone with video call. How could set up this feature ?

  • If you want your office applications has editing features in this gadget, so you have to purchase licence for Office 365. It will be good for you if you really love & will be more productive with these apps.

  • office does have editing features and windows 10 mobile anniversary update works great on it...it is smooth and fast

  • hey frnds.... plz tell me about apps available on window play store. . plz tell me tt thes lumia phons support popular app like Xender youtube etc.do yu find lack of apps on window phons. . thanks

  • I have this phone for two days and its updated to Windows 10. All I can say in this OS is still lots of bugs and errors. The internet is not working (3G version sucks!). I thought Microsoft already fix everything but its not! This is my last Windows Phone ever.

  • you lied. nonsense phone. even the office applications has no editing features on it, in Nigeria there is no windows 10 update if you force installation the phone goes crazy

  • can anyone tell me that after anniversary update the battery performance of this phone will be improved?? and i want to know that is win 10 fast and smooth like 8.1?

  • I used this phone for about 1 year before buying a Huawei Mate 8, I liked the Lumia 640 XL so much after the upgrade to Win10..and still find it the smartest phone I've ever had and the most beautiful one either for its amazing UI..and for the price it's an incredible package overall. you'll never regret buying this one.

  • Download windows insider app and then check for builds, I personally suggest insider slow. Then go back to phone updates n you will find windows 10 update there

  • How to reinstall windows 8.1 from 10

  • I have been using ML 640 XL dual sim for a month. Following is what i found. Pros 1. Fast UI 2. Each app sized below 10 mb 3. Battery lasting for 40 hours 4. Windows tiles up front is outstanding 5. Speaker is very loud and clear Cons 1. Hangs at times. We will have to restart when it happens 2. Third party apps wont be available like parallel space app for providing secondary whatsapp 3. Youtube not present. Video play back is poor. Final take is if your an android user please give it a try. Else never go for this. Trying someothers like Windows 950 XL For more on this mail me @ [email protected]

  • go for huawei .....it is great company ,,,tooo better than xiomi,,,,,i have lumia 640 xl ,,,,but not supporting popular application same like android,,,,, go for huawei .....

  • go for huawei

  • It is released as a bad luck for smartphones. It accused the name smartphone.

  • gaya i suggest the slow insider is better for you, fast wont be stable as it is for developers and testers such as myself. if you just want early access to software then fast is the wrong option

  • Do not buy lumia products. They have no resale/2nd hand value. Currently I'm using a 640xl dual sim phone. And I'm a fast insider. The OS sucks big time coz its not stable. The major apps rarely gets an update. Therefor the apps are not stable. Crashes when you use for more than 1 minute. Ex- Facebook and Instagram. They are far behind compared to the IOS and Android versions. If you have money to waste buy lumia products. Go for an Iphone if you have enough cash if not for an android.

  • download update advisor and check for update

  • go to store download and install update advisor and check for update

  • Worst phone ever... Please do not buy.. I got an year back and found lot of problems for apps to install no apps works on this... It sucks man

  • Go to Store and download Windows Insider Install Win Insider and then go to Check for update...let the application do the rest ;)

  • You can upgrade to Windows 10 by joining the Windows Insider using the Store App on your phone but it is not recommended. I've tried it. There are numerous bugs and some of the old Apps you are used to do not work with the new Windows 10. Also if you want to wind back to Windows 8 then that can also be a pain in the neck. If you must have Windows 10 on the phone then the best bet is to buy the later model.

  • Wrong information. It won't happen

  • Skype will only support Windows 10 Mobile and will drop support for Windows Phone 8.1 and 8 starting October 2016.Its a worst Microsoft ditch it's own software support for it's own Windows plaform.Windows 8.1 is not as old to Retire apps support it's so embarrassing Microsoft thats why your Windows phone market share less than 1%.Microsoft really not serious about its smartphone.It will be much better to stay away from Mobile business forever.

  • I have faced similar problem in the initial days. But after doing the factory reset in regular intervals(min 3 times in a day). Now iam able to access google play store in my windows phone. If you reset min 6 times in a day, you can upgrade the windows to apple ios too. Hope this will help you

  • I swear I love this Windows Phone. It's been 3 months I'm using Microsoft Lumia 640 XL Dual SIM without any problem. I've upgraded it to Windows 10 as Microsoft's advice and it runs smooth, clear, and no error happens or something like that. I don't bloody care if I will never be able to play Pokemon Go on this device, there are a lot of other games I can install. I truly hope Sir Bill Gates will continue to produce Windows Phone in the future. I'm wondering if anyone has idea about the OS that will be used by Surface Phone?

  • MS has pathetic service centers, i had MS Lumia 640 dual SIM, which had camera after upgrade license under MS from Nokia, camera quality got downgraded, and visited MS service center in Lucknow, the lady was insulting customers.

  • 640 XL no doubt very good option if you want Windows phone but plz note dated chapet of 640 XL not capable to handle Windows 10 .But if you want to go for Android better to go for Moto G 4 Plus best choice under 15K having a great camera over Readmi Note 3 (below average camera),and Asus Zenfone.

  • Hello . I have a big problem in connection with the decision of which phone to buy . I study the symptoms of the disease on the plants and I need a phone with a camera with good ( microimages , microdetails ) and good work ( without bagovanja or lag ) portables . So far I have used the Nokia Lumia 630 and very satisfied , so I was sent to the quality of Windows Phones . Looking at the net and thinking to which phone to buy ???

Now i'm waiting for native .txt support (viewing and reading), ability to pin Word and PDF files to start screen, and much easy way to make a call, and answer to call (i mean theh should minimize number of steps to take this operation).

  • Microsoft fails to in manufacturing Lumia devices. But don't forget Microsoft is a software giant. And Microsoft is still the boss in Making and developing Software for Android as well as IOS also.Most of the IOS apps is made by the Microsoft.

  • Even Chinese are designing making with better hardware and software. Selling millions, but Microsoft has gone nuts. 650 even worst hardware and software. How can Microsoft buy26 billion Linksdin .

  • Worst software i have ever used in my life,however i respect Microsoft but definitely not for mobile phone anymore.

  • Great phone. do not believe others

  • Don't even think of buying Microsoft products. Apps of Windows Mobile 8.1 sucks big time and those apps belongs to the stone age. Rarely gets updated. I regret buying this phone. Even though you upgrade to Windows 10 mobile, the OS and Apps are buggy and crashes a lot. I'm not trolling. I owe 640 XL Dual Sim which was bought last year.

  • Try by updating the phone. Remember that it has to be on wi fi to update it.

  • I agree with you

  • I am using this phone from last one year & Its really awesome phone. The batter backup, display, touch sensor, Camera, etc.. are great. Only the issue is lot of usable applications are missing in the store.

  • update to windows 10

  • i like it very much...i purchased 1 year...no complaint...no virous...good speed...

  • Finally Instagram official apps landed in Windows Store.Its much better than its Earliar one.

  • just keep on using it, till bricked. No alternative to repent on MS dodged windows10, updates, full of bugs. Even apps updates, vanish hav to re search thrice to update, gestures& touch always shows error.

  • Don't buy this phone .. you will regret a lot .. No apps for this phone, the facebook app is really bad and the store is really poor, Don't waste your money on this useless phone

  • how is the camera output compared to lumia 735

  • Guys, please help, I bought this phone and I used it for a while, then wifi stoped working and it says "cant do this right now" I tried hard reset, soft reset, and recovery tool, but no use.. PLS HELP HELP

  • I totally agree with everything you write, I just returned the phone to 8.1, the better it works

  • Why are we relenting, its our mistake, opted fr windows. 640xl is worth trash. Brick lowest specs! No way to even think Windows again. By destroying Nokia within 2 years Revenge is taken. Nokia is back on Andriod

  • Guys I m using this phone for 6 months. It never hanged nor restarted. Battery backup is the greatest in this phone. Only concern is its not able to pickup signals. sometimes you have search for the network signal manually and set it up. UI is just fluid and ease. Camera is not much expected as I owned L730 with just 6.7 mp camera it produced brilliant pics. But this not giving that output. Front 5 mp also really not so good. No no no no heating problem and high end games can be played with ease.

  • Nice phone

  • I am the user of Microsoft Lumia 640 XL Dual Sim. This phone is just awesome as compared to Android and iOS. Because before I bought Microsoft Lumia, I was crying on a Android Smartphone named: Huawei Ascend Y530. It hangs alot.. Even half of its screen was unresponsive. But from the day I've bought Microsoft Lumia, I've identified that Lumias are the best phone in the world. And also I want to say that Many People says that Android OS has more apps as compared to Windows Phone Store, I just want to say that many of the apps of PlayStore contains Viruses & Malwares. My opinion is just to buy Lumia phones as they donot have any hanging problem. And I also want to say to those people who are confused in upgrading their phone to Windows 10 that The Windows 10 upgrade in OPTIONAL...!!!

  • hi everyone can you help me to download third party apps directly to wp10, like google apps. thank you

  • If you want to buy Windows phone then 640 & 640 XL or 640 XL LTE is the only best choice.Its a solid smartphone designed by Nokia branding by Microsoft.

  • Just wanna know about windows 10 official update on my 640 xl. Overall the phone is good. I love microsoft. No bugs nothing.

  • It's basically dead. If they can't even manage to support it while releasing Windows Phone 10, they'll never support it. After snubbing their own users on the upgrade from Windows Phone 7, promising never to do that again, and then doing it again anyway with Windows Phone 8 (many of which phones we have been told will now never be updated to 10), how can anyone trust them on mobile? They can pretend it's just a "this year" thing, but it's not like they don't have the budget to support it if they chose to do so. It's a strategic choice to kill it, they just don't want to say so until they finish unloading their inventory on the gullible.

  • then how you fixed the same , even im facing the same issue

  • Its worth rut, now since 10 came with no better shots, its a shame to carry one nowadays. 318 still full of bugs, major when apps are updating, suddenly they vanish, u hav to recheck fr updates and its take hours for office word, powerpoint, excel only. Wake up MS

  • Windows phone is least popular very few percentage of people want to buy.Its quite obvious that you don't get good money as a return.

  • r8.... and it also dont support OTG cable

  • I Trust Microsoft brand But Faced many issue Finally I sold my 640xl in just hardly in 5000 no one person to take this mobile second hand the real price i brought this phone is 14500 but my hardwork money in go into trash.. in market window mobile os is die soon so be aware if you buy you will never get half money .... compare as android phone

  • 640 & 640 XL performance was brilliant when it was on Windows 8.1 Denim update or (2nd update).It was much stable OS version.Windows 10 is good but not stable till date and lots of bugs in it and it will going to ruined all Lumia devices.

  • I bougt lumia 640 xl last October but indifference attitude of Microsoft destroy win 10 platform. Despite downloading all updates shortage of apps and half rurunning of apps ccompelling me to sale this set but no customer.

  • Microsoft distroyed Nokia first and Now distroy itself.If we remember Nokia trying to Adopt Android platform with their Nokia X series at that time Microsoft forcefully dropped Nokia's ambitious projet. Nokia did the excellent product pakaging to promote "Nokia X series".How could I forget that day when Nokia launch it's X Series smartphone that day was not less than the Festival. All Nokia's priority stores looks beautiful they (bleed green)entire store with green baloon and their employees with green T-Shirt.I still get emotional to remember that exceptional moments.

  • Yes I agree Microsoft left every room empty with Lumia 650.It will never ever compete with Moto G 4Plus and not even compete with its predicessor 640 & 640 XL.Last year these 640 series created lots of hope.And we think Microsoft is verky serious about its smartphone market.He drop Nokia branding.But finally fails.Whater the Windows phone market but it was completely Nokia effort.Nokia was never let down Windows phone.And Microsoft completely failure in making its brand more popular than the Nokia.Nokia know how to make perfect smartphone.The only mistake made by Nokia to adopt Windows platform if Nokia adopted Android platform no one will compete with Nokia. 650 series shows that Microsoft didn't know how to make smartphone

  • Finally I sold My Lumia 640 XL dual Sim.Actually I wanted to upgrade my phone but Microsoft didn't much serious about its smartphone and as succesor of 640 series they just drop Lumia 650 they haven't thnik before manufacturing this silly Smartphone nothing especial in it.Nobody interested in this disaster phone and not going to pay 15K for these crap look at the spec. SD 215 a lower end chipset.8 mp cam.2000 mAh battery.1 gb ram,5"hd display.I think its a big joke.Now I bought Moto G 4Plus under 15K what a spec. SD 617,5.5"Full HD display having 410 PPI,3000 mAh battery Quick charging support along with Turbo Charger in the box,16 Mp camera dual tone led flash and with Laser auto focus.Not ended here 3 gb Ram and 32 gb internal storege.OTG support. And last but not least all these spec. will going to support world's most popula Android OS and Moto will charge same 15K for all these.

  • Windows 10 perfectly instead in Lumia 640 & 640 XL beyter to go with 640 XL dual sim LTE.

  • Should there any problem on installing windows 10 before any use of this device? Please answer it. I have decided to buy this device.

  • It us writing on the wall, after staff lay off n Finland and Redstone, it is imperative only business enterprise level models will be rarely made. Finnito no more surface or even Andriod no chance!

  • In Windows some apps are just great like calculator,people hub,email integration, callender apps....all these appa are unbeatable. IOS and Android not having such types of apps not even close to these apps.

  • Sometimes I have doubt "is GSM Arena is fake or Genuine" Reason whatever is the percentage of Lumia device users or (Windows lovers).One thing I always realized that and still realizing more than 80 percent are the happy and satisfied customers with of Lumia devices.On the other hand Android users always crying and are never ever happy with their devices.If this GSM Arena is a genuine platform for the smartphone users then why Microsoft is give up its mobile business why Microsoft may be shutting down its phone division for good.I am also using Windows phone and believe me I am too happy with my device.But now I am very disappointed to here that Microsoft's decision to close their mobile segment.

  • i saw that there r many idiots.who r giving reviews.my honest review is .....about this phone yukkk worst this phone has one quality its size like geomettry box n nothing inside this camera very poor op very poor campatibility zero .even there is no data cable with this phone n other cable is not get compatible.etc there r endless drawbacks itts yukk phone n iam sure its the end of microsoft even carbon is better then this yukkkkkkkkkkkkk thooo worst worsttttttttgphone ever

  • Don't buy Lumia devises at least for One Year.Microsoft evaluating its smartphone market.That why Surface series also in the hold.

  • I've been using this phone for nearly an year. Very durable phone. Highly recommended. But can't refrain from complaining about the OS and the apps. Windows 10 non insider as well as slow/fast insider has glitches. Because I tried both. Windows 10 OS isn't stable. So I'm using 8.1 (original OS version that comes to the phone). The good thing about 8.1 is that, 8.1 is stable. But the downside of it is, Microsoft has stopped developing 8.1 apps. Now they are fully concentrating on Windows 10 mobile apps. Ex - Instagram. The 8.1 version of Instagram still doesn't have DM and Video Update features and it doesn't show the full photo/article. You see only half of it. So you need to have 6tag app to see the whole picture/article. And only once/twice a year only that app gets updates. Facebook app is far behind compared to the IOS/Android version of Facebook. You see the same post twice and sometimes you can't put a like or even if you put a like, it has not been liked. The only good thing about windows phone is, it doesn't lag/freeze like Android/IOS phones and you have lot of options in the camera. You can take lot of professional photos. Light trails, background defocus photos etc. So unless you can grasp all these things don't buy this phone or any other windows phone.

  • How about Using UC Browser,...normally it crashes many in other model of lumia 630 and many times need to uninstall and install it again....So Please share the experience using UC Browser in Microsoft 640XL"

  • Finally Microsoft to End Smartphone Manufacturing, Says Union Representative.

  • If you have problem In downloading Windows 10,take backup in your computer,reset your phone and format your SD card also let your phone to reinstall application >install update adviser>run update adviser>go to setting>phone update>update is ready to install>let finish the Windows 10 installation it will take huge time but passionately wait for completion of Windows 10> after Installation next Windows build 318 is ready to install> after complete installation>Reset your phone again it will delete old Windows 8.1 files and it will install Windows 10 correctly in your device>now update all existing apps in your device and feel the difference

  • Microsoft made good windows phones but that's not all. What about the apps to run the phones, at least the most popular ones. He needs to know that he has create and make what the users like but not what he wants. No buyers mean no business. I love windows phone but the app platform makes it a failing business. Sorry Microsoft, anyway you had tried to offer something.

  • I have videos in memory card but when I trying to send these videos on watsup there did not show any video

  • its a good phone especially on internet and camera

  • I have this phone . The camera is very good and also the phone works fast. It's a good idea to buy it. :)

  • camera quality is good but not good as it price point you have more option in market in android phones which camera quality are good. 640xl gives you natural photos but nearest shot not for far but on other hand some phones give you more sharp and colores in photos but os paltform is diffrent

  • After Windows 10 update I haven't got any issues then why should I post a wrong reviews.I am happy with My Lumia 640 XL despite of it's decreasing market I still want to Stick to Lumia devices.Yes newly launch 650 is not a right choice but 640 & 640 XL still have potential to survive couples of year.

  • It's not believable perfection in each aspect, name a few bottle necks, apps udates started immediately it over, again check this takes 3 times. Log can not be opened nor people names edited. It all close back to screen. Eigi is poor connection sometimes connects mostly single arrow instead of two . Its a nuisance , wonder what MS are not reading and looking at.

  • In my city (I leaving in a Capital city) in almost all stores Stop selling Microsoft Lumia devices.But they sell some worst smartphone like obi mobile,zen smartphone(not about the Asus Zenphone),Vivo ,Oppo.....Gionee smartphone all these all are just a crape but they sell all these crapes.But one thing I must say Microsoft can't handle Smartphone market despite of it's superior spec. they don't know how to sell and how to be in the market.Earlier Nokia carry Windows phone (Lumia devices) brilliantly whatever the market share achieved by Windows phone only due to Nokia efforts but with the same product along with Microsoft branding they fails to create any miracle.Look at the spec. Of 650 having(SD215 cheapest) so called successor of 640 Series having (SD 400 cheapest) 1st time I saw Predecessor having superior cheapest in compare to it's Successors.SD 215 actually a dual core architecture processor SD 400 series is Quard core processor. We accept at least SD 410 or 415 instead of SD 215 cheapest in 15K.It all proves that Nokia was the actual mind behind all Lumia Series till Last year including Microsoft Lumia 535,640,640 XL,550,950 & 950 XL.Microsoft don't have any future strategy.They don't know 215 series chipset is the rubbish choice for 15K phone we consumer are not a full why we accept bullshit.

  • Completely I agreed ,I also got defective products two times and Bothe were the Smartphone.And one more thing I would like to share amazon cheated me by wrongly placed the order and they make their payment through my Credit Card which was saved in my Amazon account.I haven't got any information about that order no confirmation mobile messages no email about order confirmation when, I was placed that order even it was not visible in my order history but after delivery everything thing was shown in my order history- date of order delivery date payments details etc.Amazon site is not trustworthy beware friend.

  • Never buy product from amazon they don't give u on time delivaray. ? They give a damaged product.

  • Hi,I love my Lumia 640xl,but after upgrade to Wf10,I have some pb.the most important is that People app.It's imposinle to add new contact and ofcource I lost my contacts!!! Also finding position on map now takes long time. Could u pls help me?

  • My wi fi sense of my 640xl doesn't working???? therefore I can't upgrade windows 10 ???? Please suggest something!!!

  • Thank you very much man! Thanks. I will do that ASAP.

  • You must have everything in storage to download to memory card. Switch to device for downloading apps etc and switch back when all loaded. You can move them later if you want.

  • Thank you very much man! Thanks. I will do that ASAP.

  • I frankly say I am never regret to updageade my Lumia 640 XL dual sim to Windows 10 everything is just perfect over Windows 10, not even a single or minor issues.All sensors perform perfectly no touch issues, earlier I had Android phone you also know very well After New OS update Android phone behave madly there are many issues like network problem,sensors problem(proximity sensor sometime stop working),touch issues with many Android phone,battery draining problem,reboot many times ,hangings problem etc...,But relax such issues I never ever got With Windows 10 upgrade. Upgrade your device to Windows 10 .

  • Thanks man, your review and comparison has been very helpful to me. Now tell me one thing, will i regret about something if i update my 640 XL to Windows 10? I am not talking about the battery that many people complain about, coz that is understandable, it is a more powerful OS therefore it consumes more power. Thanks in advance.

  • I haven't found any smartphone under 15K which beat Lumia 640 XL display,now I am dam sure about Lumia 640 XL 5.7" (720 HD) display is much brighter and more accurate in colour production,Viewing angles are great,White balance is just perfect,Sunlight readability excellent, Watching Full HD video with charm,on the other hand Lenovo K3 Note & A 7000 Plus so called 1080 Full HD display even J7 Super Amoled display ,Asus Zenphone 2 Selfie , Xiaomi Mi 4i ,Redmi Note 3 Full HD display is fail to produce good quality display all these smartphones are the best seller but its display is far behind in front of Lumia 640 XL. Friends its a truth,I came to this conclusion after various research.

  • Camera is not good , I used this phone for 1 year the camera if not as 13mp

  • Indeed the battery back up has decreased and the reason is quite obvious because Windows 10 as an OS is more resource intensive than Windows 8.1 but then of course it packs more features too. However I would still say the battery back up is still better than many similarly specced Android devices. And now they have further slashed the prices and as for now this phone is absolutely a steal at 11K. I mean 13MP Carl Zeiss camera, NFC and excellent battery life at just 11K. Now that's just excellent.

  • Its a best phone at 14k...go for 640xl

  • Most of the problems with the phone are all settled in windows central app on Android or on the windows platform. In particular after the upgrade to W10M, there were problems which were shared variously across the phones in the platform. However, with the help of others on the forum, the necessary help, and thus the transition was really made smooth. Been using the phone for 6months... Bliss!!! PS: Often most of the problems resolve after a hard reset...

  • I am using this phone for the past almost one year. After upgrading to WP 10 I am facing some peculiar problems. Photos clicked with the Lumia camera app are not visible in the Photo app. I have a 32 GB external storage and save pictures on SD card only. But, nowhere I am able to see the pictures that I have taken recently. Also, some other apps like Lumia creative studio and Lumia Beamer are not functioning. Confused. One more issue is that some 22-23 downloaded apps are ready in the queue position in store. But they are not getting updated. And finally, opening of website pages seems to be slow even with a 4G connection. No problem with net connection as my android phone is working perfectly with the same 4G. Has anybody faced any such issues?

  • I've buy it on friday with 75% battery, now is monday and battery is 14%. Talking, playing billard, texting and web browsing. Downloading maps, uinstalling apps too. Great!

  • Rummers reveals 6GB RAM for OnePlus 3,These Chinese brands will going to expoil Android phone,I don't think No. Of RAM (GBs) and No. Of cores in processors will Play any significant role in the actual world of performance.I would like to suggest "its better to spend more time in OS Optimization.Rather than in all these silly things.Windows OS and IOS don't need More Gb .They perform brilliantly in their limited resouses.

  • I used Nokia then ms lumia for the last 9 years just upgraded to Windows 10 before 2 weeks then the mobile lost the good performance.already has a weak touch feature. And many issues... I bought Huawei honor 7 it's a complete great phone. Not expensive. Amazing features nothing is missing finger print. 20 mp cM and 8 mph front cam...throw Windows phones and get Huawei honor 7

  • Same is the case with me. I m also facing the low camera quality..

  • If you do not like Wp 10 you can always go back to WP 8.1 using "Windows Device Recovery Tool" from here

  • Dear friends i have installed a win 10 on my mobile but it was failed to perform an good action so i want to degrade it.. how i should degrade it friends

  • Hi every body. I upgraded my Lumia 640 XL to wp10. it works good. the only problem I have is after upgrading it takes time on the map to find out my location, while on the previous version of WP it was faster. Except this I am satisfy whit the new OS.

  • After upgrading to w10,internet browsing gets slow and many times lags.Battery lasts only six to seven hours.

  • I fully agree with u that Windows 10 start up and official update is a big fiasco. Waistage of time useless MS has disgraced themselves which is the right version or beta , they existed full year in anticipation. Result mismatch. 8%share n market when 8.1 now zero. Even pro xl started 850 $ now woo even no buyer.

  • U are right

  • I have installed windows 10 version,but it will make hang& make my mobile slow,after that I will install 8.1 version,after that now my mobile is working superfine,don't installed windows 10 version.

  • And that's a reason why I don't wand Windows 10. :)

  • Hello peeps! I have installed and un-installed windows 10 more than ten times. The idea of letting windows 8.1 update 2 has really messed up my windows 10 experience because the features of W8.1 are unique and beautiful. Windows 10 is all lag and a big hype. The Internet explorer 11 mobile was best for me.....could control data usage and compress pages. Th e MSN news app ... we couls adjust font, spacing and the app was my type...now its wierd. Battery backup on w10 is poor, saying the least. The OS is heavy and keeps on ..loading,......resuming......rolling beads.. I am someone who loved Nokia././. so moving back to android is an option cos I have an experience there It is proposing for disgusting.

  • Microsoft has begun pushing out Windows 10 Mobile build 10586.218 for all Insiders on the Release Preview Ring, phones officially updated to Windows 10 Mobile as well as all retail devices (phones sold with Windows 10 Mobile, non-carrier). The same update is also going out to all PC owners as well due to the shared core of Windows 10.

  • Windows 10 upgrade in older devices was not an easy task.Its biggest upgrade.My Lumia 640 XL dual sim perform perfectly expect battery backup around 7 hrs when I use it madly.All Lumia devices running over Windows 10 including latest release Lumia 950 ,950 XL & 550 having similar problem Battery backup,And its not exactly as that of it's earlier Windows 8 & 8.1 Most probably Microsoft will fix this issues with coming Redstone update.In 30th June 2016

  • which 32 gb micro sd card work best for lumia 640 xl ( India)

  • Agree gaurav....while on 8.1 battery backup was good but in 10 its degraded a lot.

  • What about battery backup how it will be improve any Idea.

  • After upgrading to windows 10 a lot of thing has changed like a better visible start screen, a better windows map and Microsoft edge which are quite cool to use. A lot of potential to improve though but it's a great phone...

  • At present Lumia battery backup is just pathetic.There is a major battery draining issues after Windows 10 update.

  • After upgrading to win 10 ,battery backup is vry less and phone freezes frequently plz solve ths problm

  • Is lumia 640 xl dual is IMO video calling support?

  • Lumia 640 XL DS or Honor 5X? I want long lasting battery and good camera.

  • MS gone mad, 650 released is failure, no more launch till nxt year of Surface phones. No upgrades normally nor insiders through. People who are happy maybe just use yes no and text. All jumbled up final vet Sahid be declared final.

  • I would like to share.I almost sold my Lumia 640 XL dual sim,but the customer haven't came after complete settlement.Then after two days I got Windows 10 update.My only charm to bought 640 XL because this 640 series among those devices which will get Windows 10 update Whenever it will officially release.Thanks god you saved me.After Windows 10 upgrade I haven't get any issues except battery backup.But above all 640 XL is perfectly compatible with Windows 10 and performing brilliantly.Every thing is perfect in My phone all sensor performing very good.I am sure Microsoft will fix soon battery draining problem with coming update.As this battery problem is peculiar in all Lumia devices running with Windows 10.

  • Its a common problem for all devices running with Windows 10 Even new Ly release Lumia 950 ,950 XL & 550 having the same battery backup problem.Microsoft will definitely fix this battery draining problem with future update.Relax

  • It's possible through upgrading your phone to windows 10

  • I've upgraded my 640XL to Windows 10 and I've been so happy about it until recently. The operating system works just fine but my one issue is that my phone now takes forever to fully charge. It can take up to 6 hours or more. I've tried different chargers and even bought a new one but it's still the same. Anyone with a solution? Please help

  • For Windows ussers - Every new OS build comes with lots of problem and will fix with coming updates.Its not a miracle Let Microsoft to fix all the bugs.Have you remembered story of so-called flagship devises like Galaxy S series and Note series even Experia Z series,HTC M series after getting new Android version they all are performing ridiculously (battery draining,network & display issues,audio problem,all sensors not performing properly) and it takes some times to fix all these bugs.IOS also not away from all these issues.So friends relax don't be afraid install Windows 10 Microsoft will definitely fix all existing bugs with coming update.

  • Do hard reset after completion of second update.OS build 164.

  • Use other Smartphone as hotspot.

  • Well some people say that doing hard reset on windows 8.1 fix some issues and you will get better performance. But now the windows 10 is more stable than before so it is not that important. On the other the only thing you get not doing it on windows 8 is that you save time (hard reset takes about half an hour) so when i'm going to do the upgrade i will do it on win8 and on win10

Yes, Windows 10 is faster than Windows 8.1 Lumia denim update 2 windows user should update to Windows 10 as soon as possible.

  • The issue I'm facing after updating to Windows 10 is posting a comment on Facebook. It takes ages to post a small comment. MS should roll out another update to fix all these glitches. Speaker is not as loud as before anymore.

There is one more update. Download it and install. Do a hardrest once again. Let the apps update and then do a soft reset. You will have very smooth working windows 10 mobile.

But still its a good phone a budget friendly with a very good specs this is wow! And 1thing i notice is the viewing angles not good. Still this is a cheap phone so u know :)

  • i want to buy this phn

  • May be MS will start rolling out the Windows 10 Mobile upgrade on Feb 29; 2016.

  • no one will be satisfied unless you are used to windows for first 2 months it will be difficult and then it will be wonderful. Do not ever compare with other os , if windows is waste then what do say about IOS. it is always good just think and solve an issue and try to use it , its good. i am using for the past one+ years . Now i am good. my next phone is going to be microsoft only.

  • Yes, we have been hooked? MSoft has lost its interest n upgrading, a commitment has been broken, it had gained in 2015 but upgrade issue has defamed, MSoft to the extent of jokers. I think wrath of Nokia played it's part by taking revenge by hardhard luckluck. 950xl is a bricked phone with no chances of success. Fairwell. Se you closing cellcell manufacturer immediately.

  • this phone is best according to the price not a single problem ......i m using it from the date of release i.e. april 7 ......better than any other os also

  • If the phone is getting less charge from the source then it will alert you saying so. If needed, connect to a wall charger, otherwise, I feel your Laptop's USB ports are not supplying enough power to your phone. I have 640 XL LTE and having no problems whatsoever described either by you or by others (maybe I am lucky). But, the fact is it is an awesome device for the price except that it is a little too big for most hands...

  • me too.... I want to sell my lumia 640 xl but not getting customers.. and now it is not supporting to my laptop ..getting msg device charging is slow...i tried many laptops but all in vein...I have done great mistake to buy this phone...

  • Using lumia 640 xl dual sim almost 9 months without any problem.

  • Very poor response no resale value.Windows 10 update loose its charm.No excitement.Finally I decided to hand over my 640 XL to my younger brother and going to buy Moto G 3rd gen or Moto X 2nd gen.And never ever going for Windows phone in future and never suggest to any one to buy Windows phone.Microsoft think that we customer are fool.

  • hi Gaurav..hope u r fine..at last u have come to my path..i could luckily sell my lumia 640XL with a reasonable price. Now using J7 and truly speaking..its 1000 times better than 640XL. But surprised to know that MS yet to release the final version of W10M. Shocking

  • I had similar problem but it solved now. If possible, try logging out of your Microsoft Account and then logging back in. It should work

  • how to install the windows 10 in your microsoft windows smartphones 8.1 1: download windows insider from store 2 : run that app and choose insider fast 3 : when it complete the process of upgrading 4 : go to the setting and go to the phone updates 5 it automatically istall the windows 10 6 : but u proceed to that ensure that all your data are in safe side

  • Using this phone for last one and half month, no hardware issue but os is just like childish having no look, no softwares available for multimedia playback and video chat etc like android, further the microsoft has failed to bring its windows 10 update as announced. Better to go for android phones than windows phones, bcoz windows 8 is just like dos not ui os.

  • Pls how wld I upgrade my Lumia to windows 10

  • Yes it z true.d camera z not soo gud at nyt.but after some tym u wld love d camera

  • Never never buy this phone. a hell of problems. Moreover THIRD CLASS SERVICE from Microsoft. my mobile is with Microsoft for last 2 months for repairy. They changed touch pad instead of motherboard. again sent to bangluru and changed the motherboard. then a lot of scratches found on the battery panel. Very poor response from Microsoft to phone calls, mails. no escalations. PLEASE DO NOT BUY ANY MICROSOFT MOBILE. ALSO IMMATURE APPS.

  • Friends Microsoft Lumia 640 xl dual sim it's superb mobile.its all good.music quality is OSM.

  • Friends Microsoft Lumia 640 xl dual sim it's superb mobile.its all good.music quality is OSM.

  • takes shitty pictures especially in low light (night)

  • Enjoying the awesome Windows 10 on my Lumia 640 XL dual sim *Insider Version Technical Preview (10.0.10586.107)

  • Facing this problem..when I switch on my phone,it asks for a scan..but after scanning I have to reinsert memory card..but after re inserting when I switch on again,it asks me again for scanning...what is this? Plz help me to solve this problem...thanks in advance...

  • Guys, anybody got notification for upgrade to 10, or still it's a farce, MSoft have gone mad, with its universal availability and cannot even do to to basics. Ota and then withdrawal then update, then stuck. Which is the bug free version no. 186 or else.

  • At last without a announcement windows 10 updates starts on 535 n middle east, when will it come on 640 xl said tobe first to receive it. All the sensation has gone and never mind, after pain stacking wait of one year.

  • Go to file apps which is preloaded in every Lumia phones and you will get Phone (internal memory) and Sd card (External memory)there.Video call in FB not available in Windows phone till date.For video calling use skype.You can select any picture as a Wallpaper.

  • I have my 640XL since December, and so far it's a very good phone. Can count in one hand how many times it has crashed. It's my third Windowsphone, and the 640 it's (by far) the most stable.

  • Hello guys :) I am writing here with a couple of questions about this device, which are as follows (I have it only for 2 days so pls excuse em if the quieries are lame): - how do I make calls (and videocalls) through FB? (this options seems unavailable to me) - how do i access my SD card? I cannot find anywhere in the menu my data? - how do i customise my wallpaper (the front screen, not the lock screen or turn off screen)? I simply love the phone as it's a gift from my brother but it's so hard for me to deal with it..

  • Use 6tag application if you are using instagram beta. 6tag is much better than instagram beta for windows phones

  • The phone is just GOOD. not an iPhone but better than most of Android devices in same price category. Windows 10 is a very good upgrade. Pros: The phone battery is Excellent, Screen is very bright and windows 10 is very easy to use. 2 SIM + SD card not available in most of Samsung new phones Cons: Camera just good, Speaker quite average, slow battery charging (might be due to the large battery)

  • Don't buy Lumia devices Microsoft is not trustworthy.Windows 10 still in the development stage and till date there is no any tentative date for its official release for old Lumia devices.Better to go for the Android Smartphone.I am trying to sell my Lumia 640 XL but sadly haven't get any customer on OLX.

  • Bro I have also same problem I dnt no what's solution ??????

  • I use this phone for a few days and last night I upgrade to win10. Many improvements but still this phone needs many other improvements. First I noticed that surfing internet is not easy as it is using G Chrome. However, phone is fast and smooth. No lag or any kind of system or app crash. I love it, only if there were any option to install GC for browsing.

  • Your Lumia device needs Wifi connection.Connect to Wifi and and update your phone (System update).Please note System update needs only WiFi connection and not possible in Cellular network.

  • My phone is verry slowly

  • Your Lumia device needs Wifi connection.Connect to Wifi and and update your phone (System update).Please note System update needs only WiFi connection and not possible in Cellular network.

  • I have had a Lumia 640XL duel sim phone for 4 days. The phone has great potential but I need to reset it about 10 times a day as it keeps crashing for various reasons. Can anyone suggest any solutions? All updates are up to date.

  • Bought Lumia 640XL a couple of weeks ago in anticipation of the long awaited OS update. Microsoft, what is happening with your promised windows 10 update for this device? Are we gonna see the update soon?

  • Its crises of nerves, no sign of 10 upgrade, if at all full of bugs. Its a brick without an executive look. No 4g nor most apps dont work or equivalent like imo messenger. Never ever think of even looking at displayed set. Microsoft stay with your Windows on PC

  • .. I can not believe that a Microsoft device has no advantage in editing a microsoft word document... I wanted to add some detail on my CV....its not possible on 640XL dual. That's unlikely, unbelievably wrong. Cheers for enabling android users and restricting us, the Microsoft Lumia users... I am sad....so sad that my loyalty has been crushed. I own top seed lumia devices, It never clicked on me that the device I ignore most, Sony ultra can edit my CV and Lumia won't.

  • Lumia 640xl where have multitasking option where is there please tell me.

  • Just turn on battery saver. That automatically turns of Wi-Fi when the phone is locked

  • Plz tell me lumia 640xl is 3g phone becoz only when i was buyed my lumia only one time it shows 4g option in 1st sim slot but at this time this option is hidden i dont know why and i checked on internet that the lumia 640xl LTE is a 4g phone not mine is that true? 650xl and 640xl LTE r diffent phones plz tell me sorry for my bad english!

  • I love this phone even though I hate Microsoft 's unfulfilled promises os update time

  • When i download pics/videos from whats app.....there is serious problem, if phonescreen is off..so down load is also off and i have to start all over again....i acnt afford to be a baby sitter....its takes ages to download (dedicated attention) plz anybody help ...how to fix this thing...otherwise i feel to throw this phone under tyres of bulldozer....microsoft such a nice company but very verty very primitive in cell ph business.........help help.....!!!!!

  • Yes bro you made a good decision.Microsoft too late.I bought 640 XL only because it was introduced at WMC 2015 & will get Windows 10 update 1st.But now I feels Microsoft brand is not reliable one.They fails to fulfill their commitment.Android stick to it's commitment and going towards next updated not sure but most probably N update.But still there is no word for Windows 10 update.One word for Microsoft it's pathetic.

  • No Snapdragon 400 not have Quick charge facility.Snapdragon 410 having Quick charge facilities.There is no Quick charge facility available on Lumia 730,640 & 640 XL.

  • lumia640xl is an awesome windows phone...no lagging nothing...its paisa wasool product

  • this is damn good phone. love it every bit. been using Android for past 3/4 years and decided to switch to lumia 730 dual sim 3 month back.. i was very happy with the performance so decided to buy this phone couple of weeks ago. phone is smooth. windows phone 10 looks and works perfect. camera quality is just awesome. has got almost all the apps that i use in daily basis. no problem on that.. i use last fm scrobble which is not still supported on win phone 10(used to work fine on win phone 8), but i guess it will come soon. audio quality is very nice. battery backup is very good on this set. gives me 2/3 days on standby on normal use. no complain till now.

  • Did it support quick charge2.0 feature?pl any one have idea?

  • wooohhh...What a beautiful phone is thiz..including so many special features...best camera...friendly useable...........m sure if u buy thiz u will became crazyyyyyyyyy........

  • Hello, please can someone help me, especially users of instagram , i always post photos on instagram but i see that the quality of the picture is not good like the original its pixelated :ss did someone face this? is that normal?? because when i see the other publications of users of lumia640XL i didnt find this issue! or its normal for all users of instagram?? i dont think so please help

  • where is FM recording option??:-(

  • purchased this phone 2 weeks ago..I was bit confused btween j7 and 640 xl..but i am very much satisfied with this device..Running very smoothly..I never felt lagginess..very good battery backup..outsanding camera..even at low light..you have to set manually in lowlight.. maximum useful apps are available at store..and the windows 8.1..what can i say about dat..i just love the live tile feature..just go for it..

  • I purchase it 2 days but it swtiches on or off at anytime ..plz suggest me what to do with it ...m little bit disappointed 😞

  • Purchased lumia 640 xl, before i had lumia 520. IE browser is completely unreliable, showing wrong sites, apps sometimes can't be downloaded. Some sites are laggy, then showing ads will mess correctly page loading. Pros: Good camera, battery Cons: Slow chipset, unreliable os, no difference in speed between 640 xl and 520, IE browser is crashing. Conclusion: Avoid this phone, for this price, go anything else, Windows phone isn't worth anything, you will loose time, patience, money.

  • I have this mobile i took it for my father the camera is very nice with most 90% app of android present the mobile battery life is also awesome runs the whole day talking chatting and playing . We just need to change our way of using and looking towards this window mobile they are very nice and good relabel .

  • I checked the sar rating of this phone and its not that high 0.73 W/kg over 10g When held against the head 0.45 W/kg over 10g When operated at a separation distance of 1.5 centimetres (5/8inch)from the body. Do you think its high? I compared the sar rating of my lumia 520 and 640xl and the lumia 520 has the higher sar rating than the lumia 640xl

  • These are common problems of this phone. You will face difficulties using facebook because microsoft doesnt have official facebook app so lot of features are missing.

  • i am using J7 and its camera is outstanding comparing same range phones.

  • definitely 5S.

  • Hello Gaurav, do u remember me? we had discussion several times. So they are delayed again? So i took a good decision switching over to another platform.

  • SAR values (for the handset and for the regional standards) both are present in the phone details section. Otherwise you can also use the code *#07#. Its showing 1.5 in India which is very high compared to other phones, even the Indian Govt doesnt allow any handsets which has a SAR value of 1.6 which is 0.1 above the 640XL's SAR. But I see people doesnt care or they are ignorant about the radiation levels. But all the other aspects including Camera is really nice. Anyways Best of Luck.

  • I have this phone but how do you know that its a high radiation phone

  • bough 640 xl 3 days ago..but cant install/download lumia refocus app.. lumia storyteller app isnt working proprly...its nt showing the place where i took the photo..It says cant find your place..how to solve these prblms..plz help me..

  • Zero lagging really perfect display very good camera very good battery no heating very good secondry camera - 1 month for using and im happy

  • Again Windows 10 update pushes back and there is no appropriate reasons bihind it.

  • Lumia 640xl windows10 update we use or not comed please tell me

  • iPhone 5S for sure

  • It's nice phone but its SAR value is too much. High radiation phone.

  • with Windows 10 this phone is near useless in terms of speed....

  • Go ahead and buy. I assure you you won't regret buying.

  • Can u tell me which is better between iphone 5s vs 640xl??Not in specification,on review and user...pls..

  • I want to buy this phn..bcz i like windows..and it has grt features also..but my mind says dat wait boy..Nokia is coming back...because im a Nokia fan..so i can not take any decision that whether i go with 640 xl or wait for the release of nokia c1 or other devises of nokia..what to do..tell me guyz..

  • lumia 640 xl and samsung galaxy j5 both can record videos at 1080p..but qualitywise which is better?? after seeing a video on youtube which was a camera comparison between these devices..i thought j7 camera is better..am i right??

  • why microsoft is going to kill lumia series??what will be the future of the existing lumias..

  • I'm using this phone for last 5months. I feel that battery backup is great. picture quality is also good. I have trouble to post more than two photos in fb. It takes lots of time but ultimate result is zero. Other things are that my apps like my talking tom are not smoothly run like Android. Sometimes when I take pictures it takes much more time for focusing that means I can't take continues snaps. This is my opinion about this phone.

  • Pl use manual.steady hands.iso 100.

  • please low light is very good provided u have steady hand use manual use iso 100 use infinity focus. result will make you very very happy. u can see my instagram at abd.wid see for your self use 6tag for windows phone

  • Pl take photos with Lumia Camera in manual mode with ISO at 64 or 100 and all others at auto values instead of in auto mode. The auto mode in lumia camera is not optimised for low light/artificial conditions but it is suitable for day light conditions. However the subject and your hands should be very steady while taking pictures at low ISO values.

  • It's pitty, imo for windows is not working, their are 3 options k store a beta too, but all do not work.. Pathetic in Msoft behalf. Why are we buying windows phones, so many bottle necks and wait for10 win, shouldn't be a lottery since needs full year to stabilize.

  • This phone takes the worst pictures in low light. Waste of my money!

  • Why am I the only person seeing the poorest low light pictures from this phone? C'mon.

  • Thanks alot...

  • Dude ur english is superb.. Learn to speak man.. About the phone. U can do background downloading using uc browser ..cab do stop or pause the downloading files 13mp Zeiss optics cam is best in this price range. And 5mp frnt cam is super in selfie pics. Can do zooming in camera..pinch zoom similar to photo zooming gesture.. It will get windows 10 update soon. So go for it dude..

  • Lol... I think 10586.63 is final build.. MS send this build to carriers and they are testing now. T-Mobile Poland already started to send official W10M update for 640.. I am using .63 build now and it is 98% solid build.. Battery backup is awesome now.. So wait until this weekend.. MS anytime start delivering official update so stay tuned...

  • It is possible to install IMO app in 640xl.. plz tell me

  • At last in list of first upgrade to win 10, ver .29 is buggy, and if we are given what news, maybe dream of buying may come true. Otherwise call duration option was missing!

  • Through windows insider app you can upgrade to windows10. I do use it and don't face any problem. It's a good phone though it's not very fast as Android or ios phones. Camera is really competitive in day light...I do love it ...

  • i am an IT Professional. and i am using this phone. it's really good phone, as an IT Pro i suggest to those people who work in IT can get this phone.. no hanging problem, long lasting battery on continue using WIFI or 3G, 4G internet. full HD camera and lots of features. do not compare this phone to Android or Apple, because it is different platform. honestly for me this is very good smart phone...

  • i have smal dout gys this phone download problem beetween stop the download and camera click the pic.s then came photo bluor thats why i m thinking brought this phone and not gave zoom system so tell me gys what to do...

  • I am not sure whether is it gorilla glass or not...Because within 3 months of usage Led broken as per service centre without any reason.

  • Wonder how you are using it from 2014 when it was released in 2015.

  • Sorry,i purchased it in may 2015 and now planning to sell...

  • If you are a Android users then go for Moto G 3rd gen a great smartphone.Windows phone lacks good quality of Apps.and Unattractive UI many Android users fells boring while using Windows phone.We can't do multitasking in Windows phone. Advantages of Windows phone Great battery backup,Nice display,Good Camera great Ram Management.Please note Windows 10 still under development there were lots of bugs present in Windows 10.And there is no any certain date for Windows 10 release.Better to Go for Moto G 3rd gen its a fantastic Smartphone very good battery backup,very nice camera and above all a great performer.M update is just start rolling out for Moto G 3rd gen and will definitely get the Next major Android update.

  • No bro, don't go for this phone..this is disgusting phone.I am using this phone since May 2014..Very unhappy with this phone but helpless..Planning to buy any android phone

  • I planning to buy this phone is this phone is good or bad???

  • first off all you need to know that the Facebook app for windows phones is developed by Microsoft themselves. they don't have official facebook app. now tell me who's problem is this?

  • Hello friend, Taking good photos with your 640XL should not be a problem. Although there are a few tricks you need to have. 1. Update the Camera application from store 2. Turn flash to automatic mode 3. Do a lot of practice with taking photos of flowers, buildings, your friends and family....take photos in town or wherever you please, practice makes perfect. 4. Have fun. Happy new year with a happy new phone....a good combination...

  • I love Windows phones ans this is my second one after nokia 625 but in case of lumia 640 xl dual its a disaster. Web browser is a disaster, forget about precise tapping, lags like hell, reboots itself once in a little while. Doesnt compress vid files sent thru whatsapp. Files larger than 5mb get rejected which sucks. Overall I love WP ans its devices but theres a long was to go ahead of MS, plus no smartwatches that support the OS. Im contemplating android although i love WP and its live tiles which is super cool.

  • i have a lumia 640xl dual sim...what a piece of crap... 1) no w10 upgrade ...but repeated adverts that it will be soon?? 2) you can only update apps if connected via wi-fi??? 3) repeatedly fails to connect to laptop...(using a 5 year old htc desire to write this). 4) cortana disabled...in uk...though the adverts where showing how useful it is? 5) even basic apps... like a stopwatch,,,are not standard. regretr buying this garbage of a phone.

  • Is this phone will upgrade to Windows 10

  • What date released windows 10 & how to upgrade in Lumia 640 xl dualsim

  • Hello....yesterday 27-12-2015 I bought this mobile...at its price it is good mobile ...long lasting battery..touch also super.....but I don't know how get good picture using camera.....anybody know please reply Thanks in [email protected]

  • yes..it will support

  • does Lumia 640 xl support all de features of windows 10

  • That's because of App not because of Phone.

  • Idk i like this phone

  • Can anyone please guide why Lumia 640xl lte operating system taking lots of internet data..i am using last two months w/o any majour use my data has been over...in data sense showing system used 7gb data and other 1gb..what is the matter even all updates of phone are off.

  • Can anyone please guide why Lumia 640xl lte operating system taking lots of internet data..i am using last two months w/o any majour use my data has been over...in data sense showing system used 7gb data and other 1gb..what is the matter even all updates of phone are off.

  • shit.....shit....shit...WTF unable to block contacts on whatsapp,no video calling on msngr and fb.........................MS sucks

  • Don't buy this phone,it is having serious issue in network reception and Microsoft has no clue how to fix it.

  • Sunil, I m also facing the same call drop problem even post service dealer resolved. What should I do now? Simply waste of my money bought 640xl

  • I just need to will the phone get updated to w10 or not

  • i want to buy lumia 640xl my friend is saying that 640xl is very worst mobile it really worst

  • Very boring not at all user-friendly phone will not advice anyone

  • Very boring phone no video calling on messengger and fb

  • thanks once again...surely if MS can surprise me i will definitely come back.

  • As obvious final decision is urs.. No one can force you.. As i told you W10 is biggest overhaul of OS in this decade so it takes them hard to settle down n stick to deadline.. Now OneCore is almost ready so Next Redstone update coming at perfect time.. Redstone update for W10 same bigger update like 8.1 for W8.... You can say it 10.1... Features wise Redstone update will be really big... W10M is almost ready to deliver.. Only few major n minor bug fixing remaining... Frm W10.. W10M is also a service now like desktop n never going to complete.. You can say w10m as a service which going to improve continuously in future... I hope MS will surprise us with Redstone n you will come back to platform soon.. Till then njoy with your Droid.

  • thanks bro for your elaborate reply..i would be happy to use a Lumia but no more..Let the final version to come into existence, let it be stable then will think again to use a Lumia may be after a year...Till then will depend on Android.

  • after severe disappointment i have sold my Lumia 640XL and bought Samsung J7 today..RIP WP..

  • There is no delay from the side of Android and IOS update only Windows 10 is delay.Its bigest disappointment for us really Microsoft not stick to it's own wording So pathetic.From August to December now Windows 10 update shifted to Next year and nothing yet confirmed.Microsoft already lost the game in front of Android and IOS.And such delay will definitely affect their future plan.Windows 10 is almost one year delay.

  • Calm down dude... RTM version is almost ready n few bug fixing n polishing is required.. No one want buggy OTA build in their phone.. This is reason MS still not released w10m update for public.. W10 is biggest overhaul till now so it takes more time for them to develop such big OS.. This is holiday time for all of them.. They can't miss these Christmas holidays so they postponed this update for January.. You need to wait 2 more weeks.. 640xl is already listed in first batch n if you don't have patience then download preview build... 10586.39 is pretty solid build n my friends told me this build working really awesome on their 640xl n 730... Almost fluent like 8.1.. Official Facebook app in work as private beta by FB inc... They officially confirmed this two days ago.. I think few major issues remains regarding update process n small bugs here n there which they needs to fix so they halt update.. This is software development dude.. No one can give 100% perfect deadline for completion because software development is really hard.. Hope you know such basic things.. If you have any problem ask me here..

  • anybody planning to buy a lumia hoping to enjoy the Windows 10 update..please DONT! unless they really release the full and final version. They have already failed to keep their commitment...and their app store is so poor..u cant even use the official facebook app. So think twice before you spend your money on their products.

  • Here is the bad news for Lumia users... "If you have a Windows Phone 8.1 device, here's some bad news for you. Microsoft has just announced that the updates to Windows 10 Mobile for older devices will only start rolling out "early next year". Previously, the company had said that Lumias with Windows Phone 8.1 on board would start receiving the Windows 10 update in December. Yet now that we're more than halfway through the month already, the time frame change is being made official. So no Windows 10 Mobile holiday gift for you then. Absolutely no reason was given for this switch, and it's pretty concerning that the new timeline is actually more vague than the old one (which referenced one month, whereas "early next year" could mean almost anything - a rollout in April, for example, may still be reasonably thought as on time by this measure). And in case you're wondering, Microsoft still hasn't presented a definitive list of all Lumias that will get the Windows 10 update. We just know which devices are going to be the first ones to run the new software, but that list dates back to July - hopefully nothing's changed." MS is really awesome....just one word for them...CHEAT!

  • Hi.. This set covers under win10 update but you have to wait for couple of months more to get the final version..in the dual sim option only one sim can be used for 3g connection and the other is for 2g.

  • Its genuine 13 mp cam..i have checked with other 13 mp cam...lumia 640xl capture more better pic than any 13 mp cam in day light...even better than samsung j7. But the only disadvantage is in low light. The speciality of windows phone cam is they capture the true color.

  • What r u saying bro?? March 2016!!! What the hell with MS!! Today i went to buy samsung j7 then again decided to wait for few days..now i should sell this 640xl as soon possible and start using android..

  • Please don't spread the rumours 640 XL camera is fantastic only drawback is at night in lowlight noise level is high.But in Daylight or in the good lighting condition it delivers the great picture quality.

  • Camera quality Is most worsted I ever seen.its a rumour 13mp . But its working like 2 mega pixels.

  • hi all, i'm italian and i've some question about this device. It's confirmed that the only way to buy as Italian is it send by a store somewhere on the internet from other European countries, like Germany and / or France, guarantee europe? In addition, there is an upgrade to WP10 short, or a device is not covered from this update? About the sim, both can go on the internet? And in what ways? Example of combinations: SIM1 in 3G / SIM2 in LTE, both LTE, or other? Both can be used in call with 2G / 3G, or one of them is limited to a band than the other? Thanks a lota, Carlo. :D

  • windows could beat android in no time if their app store were like android or iOS. iOS has set the example that without hampering the security and integrity there can be a rich app store. i can t understand who is behind the idea of such limited app store.

  • they released windows 10 for lumia 950 series but pulled out due to installation problem. So we have to wait more for the update..shocking performance from MS.

  • MS had pulled out the latest windows10 version from their server as they received several complains regarding installation problem. Basically the version was released on 8 December. The problem was faced by lumia 950 and 950xl users. This is very unfortunate from the tech giant like MS. They came into mobile business without preparation, it is now clearly understood. They kept all the windows phone users hanging since long and yet no definite commitment about the update. Feeling disgust as windows phone user.

  • I am not talking about insider previews.We are in December Windows 10 mobile version update is still in the pipeline line.14 December was the confirmed date by the Microsoft but not yet receive Very embarrassing.

  • Overall phone is perfectly fine. Pros Include: 1. Ability to install apps on SD cards with almost a lag free environment 2. Its really buttery smooth when opening & closing and scrolling within the apps 3. Rear Camera is really a 13 mega pixel camera. Had some really great short both in day and night 4. Processor & RAM performance along with the Windows OS is a perfect match Cons Include: 1. The front camera... Its either a very very poor camera (may be the sensor) or the Camera App does not has a good front facing camera coordination. It really takes very poor and bad pictures with front facing camera. Never felt that I have a 5 mega pixel camera on front of my phone :-( 2. App compatibility.. This one is also a major disadvantage of having a windows phone. Its not days, Its almost years and we don't have basic apps like Facebook (officially developed app by Facebook team), IMO & video calling on FB Messenger. 3. User Interface... Although its quite simple but isn't it too flat?? even in windows 10 insider previews there is no major option of customization like icon changing and other changes. 4. Bazzels top, bottom & sides, all are too wide,

  • Then i m the unlucky one..

  • Sorry bro but I have been playing temple run regularly but it work totally smooth

  • yeah its quite beautiful but full of bugs :-) have used insider previews many times on my different lumia devices but always get back to win 8.1 :-)

  • I tried Temple Run and experienced lagging. But no restart issue.

  • I have been using this device from Aug 2015. On normal usage it does not lag but on heavy usage like running a heaving game it does lag. But overall its usage is quite smooth as compared to any android device in this specs & price

  • Bro..Microsoft doesnt have official facebook app..its made by them and many features are missing.

  • There is no video calling on the windows FB app (as its developed by Microsoft itself not by Facebook). The officially supported Facebook messenger app also does not have the video calling option. I don't know from where you have got video calling option :-P

  • who said that fb dosenot supports in Lumia????I am using it on lumia it is very good about video calling on fb as well.

  • is 1GB RAM enough to run heavy games or video calling, Did anyone experience sluggish, hang or restart..??

  • I second u..

  • Hello peeps! My Lumia 1320 and 640 XL Dual both run windows 10. Download windows insider app, install preview versions... Have a beautiful user interface.

  • 14th December but there is no any news of Windows 10 update for Old Lumia devices.So pathetic.

  • Hi guys i want to know what is the performance of lumia 640xl with heavy games like asphlt 8 and graphical apps ?

  • is it a good phone for long and heavy use? coz i just brought it pleaswe let me know

  • I second u..

  • The two most important things i miss in windows phone is the facebook and clash of clans. And that makes me so down as windows phone user. I wish someday they also give importance to Microsoft and make those apps available for us.

  • I agree apps quality is very poor.IOS is on the top in front of Android also,All IOS apps are best and beautifully designed Apps.But Windows apps is so boring and needs great improvement to compete with Android.

  • I have a question..please anyone reply..why Microsoft doesnt have official facebook app?

  • i have a love hate relationship with my phone. Love the camera, display clarity, general speed and speed of operation...however these are more than overshadowed by the main functional aspects of a phone...staying in touch with people. I have tried everything to get my emails to be displayed in full and with images with no success. Due to the paucity of the apps store i am unable to find a decent working replacement. Maybe windows mobile 10 will solve the basic issues that are so obvious...i won`t hold my breathe! Unless i can find a resolution to these poor operational functions, this will be my first and last windows mobile....back to android!

  • Yes u r right, they can't employ tech person in the selling point.just useless company. All the selling points just sell. Afterwards u r the sufferer don't buy windows phone

  • Its a useless phone, not properly working from the time I purchased 3 months ago, poor camera, every frequently it erases memory card,says no memory card inside. Its shit phone, shows 119 gb in storage,when it is 16 gb. 90% of the sellers have no technical person. MS first have tech personal in the selling point's.if not don't sell windows phone.

  • Yes .. This device also comes in 4g variant... Just u have to make sure that you are going to buy a 4g variant. And secondly there is an app called MoliPlayer which is equivalent to Mxplayer on android. Having all the codecs, gestures and subtitles support.

  • I disagree with you Microsoft default key is perfect in use there is no any problem even google default key is not as perfect as that of Windows key.

  • Very annoing keyboard and language support. I bought an application on market for professional purpose. Functionality like inserting date is terrible. Screen is moving with a finger. Micosoft should check what is on market. Not good.

  • I am not an android lover..i have used only one android and an iphone meanwhile..rest all were and are windows phone. From the lumias first flagship 920 to 640xl..i have used number of lumia phones. But i m disappointed coz they arnt upto standard and i cant see any sign as well..

  • Dont show ur maturity with me dear..i have damn bloody right to criticize them as i m a windows phone user since long. How old are u? Haven't u learnt manner form ur family? If u dont like then poke ur nose else where.

  • It depends on ur requirements. If you just need a phone with good battery backup and good display then u can go for 640xl. But if you are apps and games lover then dont buy any windows phone.

  • 640 xl is good

  • Why the market share is so poor? Why Microsoft failed to attract people with its awesome ram management and clear black display and handy operating system?? Why popular apps developers arent interested to develop apps for windows phone? B'cause they know thats going to be a wastage of their investment. Even windows phone doesn't have official facebook app..how ridiculous!! Who will waste their time for the tiny little market share holder? Unless they create an app store like android and apple, whatever they produce (with finest ram management and bla bla bla) their popularity will never rise.

  • For your kind of information IOS z 11y old.Android z 10y old. N Wp z 4y. IOS n Android takes lots of time to settled in market. So ll take time to settle in the market. N u know how much garbage selling out by lagaroid.. WP z for matured users not for babies who always crying . WP Don't have dis that. Stop crying wp has neccessary Apps dats enough for us..

  • Time will answer...

  • Yes Windows phone market share is very poor but, It still have potential to bounce back.Android is the market leader but there is lots of disadvantages especially unstable OS poor ram management.Windows OS is much stable than the Android OS.

  • Because they realized that taking over Nokia was the greatest mistake and now after failing miserably to earn popularity they want to get rid of it. Even one of the most popular games Clash of Clan is not in their store. Microsoft tried to attract the business class people but they couldn't read the mind of young buyers. Apple already occupied the business class. Microsoft will never be able to replace apple/iphone. Their market strategy was completely wrong. RIP windows phone.

  • Windows 8.1 2nd update is much better from its earlier version and default Video player play almost all video.I install mx player but till date there is no need for other player.Default player is the best one.You may install free Moli player by selecting China region only.

  • I don't know Why Microsoft looking for the other manufacturers for Windows phone Microsoft is capable to Manufacture good quality Lumia smartphone 640 and 640 XL popularity is the best example.Android is different .Different manufacturer's will customise its own UI according to their own way.Because they don't think Android own UI is perfect Someone like Android advantages of customise UI over the Android and Someone dislike such customisation of different UI over the Android.Thats why Samsung users didn't like to go for the other brand.And Nexus users and Moto users love pure Android experience and want to continue with the same devices.

  • You can write thousands of good words about this device..but unfortunately that won't help Microsoft getting new customers. Microsoft mobile will be history soon..i am fade up waiting for windows 10.

  • Dear friend will u tell me does this phone runs IMO. I m having Lumia 925 but No application like IMO IN ITS STORE.

  • Better not to install the pre release version. This is a test version and intended for them who has got technical knowledge and can help Microsoft by providing feedback regarding different apps and features. There are lot of sectors where you will find difficulties..force close apps, lag etc are common issues. So wait for the full and final version.

  • Guys does the phone support 4g & is there any good video player like MX player or vlc player???

  • How To use Criminal Case In THis Phone Rply Fast Frnds.

  • you are perfectly correct.

  • I bought my Microsoft Lumia 640 XL in June 2015 and from the beginning I had trouble in getting the call I desire for very frequently calls drop. Also my contacts are unable to contact me cos their getting the message "Not Responded" even though signal strength if on the maximum. Further unable to download pics to my computer thru the data cable. In the first instance Softlogic my dealer could not solve this problem. Latest problem is unable dial or receive any call though high strength signals are indicating. I am very disappointed since I paid a high price compared to other brands with similar features.

  • After using it for almost 7 months i strobgly recommend lumia 640xl ....good sound quality ...and last but not the least it is a microsoft lumia

  • After using Android,IOS & windows I just say that Windows phone is not the bad choice.It performs very well yes apps quality is poor in compare to IOS the best one in Apps quality and Android ,but overall performance is very good and I always spend quality time with Windows phone.I strongly recommend to buy Lumia devices especially 640 or 640 XL best among all Lumia divices.

  • First download windows insider app in your store. Then open and login insider. Now check your phone update and download. Enjoy friend

I made hell mistake to take it...

  • Almost all ANDROID phone after certain times of use. Sensors in the smartphone specially proximity sensor and somewhat ambient light sensor fails to respond (no prompt response).But such types of issues will never or rarely comes in Windows phone.Microsoft and Nokia never use cheap quality hardware like that of Android phone.Lumia is the quality product.

  • Lumia 640 XL after 6 Months It still satisfying me a loot, a great value for money product. My 640 XL encouraged me to buy one more Lumia now I have two more Lumia device Lumia one 640 and two 640 XL.So is there anything to say about Lumia device specially Lumia 640 series is the best in the market till date.I love 640 XL a great performer in all aspect.

  • I don't know what to say Battery back up -good No heating issues Apps - all important and work related available More of a gentleman's phone Music output -awesome Camera-unbelievable focus if you are into photography Lags-somebody plz explain what that word means because since I started using Lumia smartphones I seldom o never use the word lag.

  • 640 XL 3g will not upgrade to 4g.

  • Hello peeps! Please tell Microsoft to upgrade lumia 640 XL dual sim (3G) to LTE. Thanks

  • I bought this phone a secondary phone for a long business trip, where I needed dual SIM to avoid roaming data charges and as I'm not in favor of mid range Androids (usually perform very badly, I've been an iPhone user for a few years and used to snappy performance). I must say I was very impressed and rather surprised. For the very competitive price I paid (160$ discounted price) I got a phone with a clear big screen, excellent performance, and amazing battery life .. I've been using it as my daily driver now for almost a month : the battery stays at least 1.5-2 days with heavy usage of emails, video calls to home country, and local calls, with mixed browsing and whatsapp. The native email client is excellent and at the same level with iPhone and Android, Excellent Office package, performance is amazing with no hanging issues, it was very easy to import my data by adding my google and iCloud accounts in Native windows OS -no third party apps used, clear black display is excellent, and sound quality is very good. The things I didn't like were : very poor apps, even when you're lucky enough to find the app in the Windows store it's nothing compared to the similar app in iPhone or Android. I can see Microsoft are trying to make some effort in that area but unfortunately it's still the weakest point. Some Apps like Facebook does not refresh in properly, also some live tiles does not refresh as regular as they should be, especially the ones for news .. also Flipbaord tile does is not live! .. Dual SIM support is very good but it lacks some silly basic features like assigning a different ring tone to each line! .. the phone can be a bit bulky and could have been thinner but it's however light in weight. The black option mat finish looks cheap, colored back covers like white, blue, and orange looks much better in material quality -I got the white one trying to opt to a more neutral option for business. I also tried to download the latest beta version of Windows 10 out of curiosity and surprisingly I was very disappointed : not only that it had lots of crashing apps and dead buttons that does not function properly -after all it's a beta version.. but it also has an identity issue compared to Windows 8.1 !! .. Windows 8.1 is all "Windows" .. it has it's own identity with squares and tiles and basic colors finish. It does not try to imitate any other OS (which is something I hated in iOS for example when they started copying Android since iOS 7 onwards) .. unfortunately Windows 10 will actually remind you of Android with some rounded designs here and there, and over loaded toggles, etc .. Things I would not prefer to see in the final version of Windows 10 .. imitation was never a key to success, be unique in your own way. In summary : I enjoyed my windows experience, and I don't regret buying it and will keep using is a secondary phone and main while travelling. I hope someone would find this feedback useful or at least interesting.

  • Great Network connectivity ,Smart Dual sim operations,fantastic Ram management,Never lag,outstanding battery backup,great viewing angle accurate colour production,Glance scree advantage,Excellent Sd card support.Like IOS Lumia phone shows name of those number in WhatsApp which was not saved in the contact list but it's not happens in Android phone,No need clear junk file cleaner and no need to install file cleaner and battery doctor apps or other security apps like cm security or 360 but such apps is the necessary for the Android phone.After One year Lumia devices running with the charm but Android going slowdown .Lumia phone having clear black display Watching full hd video is the great experience in Lumia phone especially Lumia 640 XL due to its 5"7" display.Unbeatable Office package,These are the key features of Lumia devices.Lumia drawback no multitasking,Limitations in download,Not for hard core gamer.

  • Yah..unfortunately only less than 2 person out of 100 understand this..rest 98 are fools..

  • You can force the phone Microsoft lumia 640 xl to use LTE by typing

  • Those who fade up with Android laginess and battery draining problem and iPhone is too costly.The best option to buy Lumia 640 or 640 XL. It's a value for the money package.Best phone at very resonanable price range.

  • Whatever the market share of Windows phone it doesn't matter the most important aspect is the performance.And no doubt Windows phone performing very well.

  • Already the market share have gone down from 3% to 1.7%. Yah..Microsoft mobiles are really awesome. The delay in releasing windows 10 will lead them to diminish from mobile market very soon. Heard that there will be more delay for the project astoria to come into existence. I can bet..i bet..windows 10 as an independent OS wont be able to hold them up unless they tie up with android/iOS apps.

  • Return it back to the retail its a defect.

  • Does it supports imo softwear?

  • In Windows phone sd card support is brilliant on other hand In Android phone sd card is just pathetic there are many restrictions in Android phone.

  • U know android starting price is 1000 but windows is 7000 this phone is really nice.... Allnecessary apps e found in store and microsoft not believe in android .. If u dont think this phn good u can sell but Bill Gates doesnot matters

  • I just want to know if i can open any autocad drawing in lumia 60 XL. Is app is available in app store ? your reply will be appreciated. thanks in advance.

  • Confused between lumia 640xl and moto g3. Does lumia supports all video files that android supports? Please help

  • It's a bang-for-a-buck kind of phone. It's fairly smooth and quick to use, and despite having a low resolution and PPI, the ClearBlack display makes contrast look pretty damn good, and doesn't give you any issues with sunlight legibility. Sound quality is stellar. The camera could be somewhat better, but the manual controls make it a whole lot of fun to use, and used right, it can give you some pretty decent pictures. The front camera performs very well, but suffers under low lighting. The video quality is definitely appealing. It takes a bit of time to focus, but the sound capture is excellent and does a pretty decent job even in extremely loud situations, something a lot of phones don't have. All in all, definitely worth the money. Very much so.

  • Dear all Who wants to buy this phone please don't buy. I writing after 5 month uses this pn.

  • Hey 🙋 Guys!I'd been using Microsoft Lumia 640 XL since August 10 2015. I'm very happy 😊 with my decision that I've bought a Microsoft Lumia.It's a great smartphone to have it in your hand ✋,it will make you feel proud. This comes with great features such as - 1. Camera 📷 awesome 🙆 (9/10) 9 because it lacks OSI.2. Call 📞 quality (10/10),3. Battery 🔋 backup excellent (10/10),4. Performance too. When it comes to security Microsoft is the boss as said by Steve Lord it's the " hardest nut to crack".My favorite feature is Cortana, kids corner. Now my cousin and friend has also bought this phone when they see this phone and you know they didn't like windows phone but when they use my phone they fall in love. So don't stop grab it and have fun 🎉. I love ❤ Microsoft.

  • Team, This is with reference to complaint number 1311217916, i am pissed off with Microsoft Lumia 640 XL handset and services. I am feeling like ditched by Microsoft, this is a substandard product and i felt like cheated by buying this Handset. This is the worst Handset and worst service i have ever experienced. My suggestion to everyone is don't go for Microsoft Phones rather buy a chinese handset if you want to use a substandard products don't pay high prices to Microsoft.

  • This is just a burden for me..cant even sell coz it doesnt have any resell value.. I am one of the fools who bought it.

  • I dont know how much need to wait for win10. I am just fed up. Waiting waiting and just wasting my time for this bullshit..microsoft should quit from mobile business and spare us from sufferings.

  • the experience with Windows phone is just worst ever.... i mean there are the lack of important apps..... like -: applock, call recorder, pic editor, video maler , call locater etc.... there are many things that Androidhave but Windows doesn't have... the camera is worst in night and low light... overall the phone is just bad.....

  • it is an very good phone but......there was some mistakes.....like call recorder not work....also some time application crack automatically....

  • i mean windows 10 for mobile ll start rolling out for dis phone .. n about video playing. its never lag even u play 1920p .. use proper memory card first..

  • I'm using dis phone since its released. wat u talking about its dont support 16 gb memory card ? I'm using 64gb samsung evo plus memory. use class 10 memory card. n about camera its can beat anyone in dis range its pics r queit natural.about lag its in android not wp even u use high Graphic games. over installes 100 apps in my phone including Ashpal heat. wp have all neccesary Apps now windows mobile ll b official available for dis next month.. stop reccommeding lagroid

  • I have used this device for almost seven months. Overall I will not recommend this device ,I recommend Samsung galaxy a5 or j7 over this Lumia 640 XL. The positive sides of this device are good battery life( for average use you will get at atleast 1-1.5 days), camera picture quality is good but sometimes picture looks unnatural, display is bright enough, browsing experience is good, gaming performance is ok but for high category game like asphalt airborn 8 sometimes you will see some laggings which mean that 1 GB ram is not enough for this type of games, and as other Windows phone the phone doesn't get hung and it runs at the same speed all time, The negative sides are poor Windows operating system; the customization and multitasking are very poor comparing to midrange Samsung Android device, lack of useful apps even in the case of important apps you will see noticeable limitation, the default apps are not limitation free for example default internet explorer is too much user unfriendly which is surprising in the case of 2015 smartphone, it claims that it will support SD card up to 128 GB but I am surprised that it actually doesn't support even 32 GB,I use Samsung SD card and 16 GB SD card is not enough for me, the video taking is too much inefficient; in 720 p settings in room light condition for just 30 seconds videos it consumed almost 40 Mb memory and in 1080 p settings it will consume almost twice memory than this; in sunlight condition the video color looks quite unnatural; I don't know the position of video taking in other smartphone, Overall it can't be a recommended device when I see there are good midrange Samsung device like a5 or j7 which is slickly higher priced than Lumia 640 XL but better than this Lumia device. The most poor experience is Windows operating system which is very limited comparing to Android OS.

  • This mobile is good but it does not support most of the apps tat I cannot install instagram,snap chat doest works and retrica doesn't open now I regret buying this mobile

  • Sometimes my Lumia 640xl's display color & contrast going to change automatically. After restarted it is fixed. Would anybody tell why is that & what's the solution of this problem?

  • Windows phone will never lags and hanging problem because it needs devices update.You have to connect with wify zone and check phone update and install the same.Please note all Lumia phone requires wify connection for system (device) update.This update will fix all the issues like lag & hanging .After 5 month using Lumia 640 XL today I bought Lumia 640 for my Dad.I didn't find anything wrong in this Lumia series a perfect smartphone.

  • After 5 month using Lumia 640 XL today I bought Lumia 640 for my Dad.I didn't find anything wrong in this Lumia series a perfect smartphone.

  • i also get this scan SD card message daily... i think SD card get some errors and windows system need to fix them.. if you tap on "no" you can still able to use apps.. no problem.. but i think scaning is important to your SD card to keep working properly.. but dont scan it in your phone.. it takes too long to scan on phone.. someone told me that just remove sd card from phone.. put it in card reader and connect to windows pc.. it will ask you to scan sd card.. scan it. PC scan more faster than phone.. i think scanning process takes 30 to 60 min. on PC.. scan it on pc

  • How to connect lumia 640 xl with windos xp pc

  • Firstly thanks for your reply.One more quiry Whenever I visited torrent site.Then after I switched off my Mobile and after Start I got notification that "you need to Scan SD card first you have to take backup in your PC,then start scanning process. If I ignore the scanning process then I am not able to use any content stored in SD card even apps also .So I have only option to scan Sd card and wait for a while till scanning process complete. Why It happens....?

  • i am not sure it is Microsoft fault or True caller devs fault.. i think it is hardware problem.. our lumias have Class B gprs connectivity.. in class B gprs only one thing works at a time(gprs or call)... means when their is a incoming or outgoing call at that time gprs connectivity aborted until you end call so in that condition with no gprs connection True caller doesnt identify/search caller id from net.. this is my opinion.. this is fault of class B gprs conectivity

  • Windows phone didn't support all featurs of "TRUE CALLER" apps. It will not shows incoming call info like that of Android phone.Any solution....?How it will work.

  • I tried connecting the mobile to a computer via anUSB cable. but the mobile is displayed under camera and scanner section. also the windows explorer or the file explorer were not showing the mobile or it's phone or card memory. what is the solution for this?

  • Yes sometimes my 640 XL having problem while pairing Bluetooth with onother Android Smartphone.But NFC did good work.

  • I recommend you 640 XL Dual SIM.

  • Bluetooth connectivity with Android just fine. I did it repeatedly.

  • Hi gaurav!! is there any Bluetooth connectivity issues with android devices in 640 xl?? plz suggest......it seems u r using 640 xl.....actually i am also looking for 640 xl...

  • @gaurav... just wait for more builds before share such shocking stuff.. it is still unclear project Astoria removed for permenently or temp.... so just wait before final conclusion. hope you understand...

  • Microsoft removes Windows Bridge for Android in latest Windows 10 build.Windows Bridge for Android in the latest build of Windows 10 for smartphones. Windows Bridge for Android, otherwise known as Project Astoria, enabled developers to easily port their Android apps to Windows by retaining most of the code, and allowed customers to sideload Android APK files, no longer seems to be working,the reason for removal is that the Android subsystem was slowly degrading Windows 10 Mobile.

  • 640 XL dual Sim is beter 640 XL LTE much better.

  • okay Ahmed i need your help i want to buy this mobile but i need to make sure if Lumia 640xl good phone or what can you help me please thanks .

  • Is there any Bluetooth connectivity issues with android devices???Any one plz suggest...

  • which one is better lumia 640 xl single sim and dual sim?

  • I just wanna ask you "Anonymous" , will you put your smartphone in your pocket with "screen on" and leave it for unwanted clicks which will make the download miserable, just for the sake of so-called Microsoft's foreground downloading... I mean, how can someone "so-smart" as you... I download full movies and mp3 albums on my android which take time to download and I just minimum to home and leave it in pocket... I don't ever have to care about downloading... I appreciate your love towards Windows Phone OS but please just don't give excuses to OS... it's never gonna change the outcomes in forthcoming OS updates...

  • 640 XL is a great value for money product.Very nice display Great battery & Descent camera in simple word a perfect Smartphone.(Fully Loaded).

  • ggkk its idiocity when your lock time in settings is selected fr no of minutes it will shut down, just increase time to unlimited and your download continue. or find option download continue in locked screen.

  • For some people...windos 10 is not out here..its just a test mode.so y u guys always complain about windows10...once we get the official update then we can judge about windows 10..i m also waiting for windows 10.windows is working hard nd we should appreciate that.its just been 4 years..8.1 is already awesome..just w8 for official windows 10 update then u will see all the changes..after that i hope u will have a good impression about windows..we windows lover will always love windows..thank you

  • I dnt get it,y people always compair windows and andriod..harsh ppl...this page is created to give details about 640xl only..u should undrstnd that..nd about 640xl is the best mid-range mobile..if u r window phone lover u should for it..cause it will worth every penny u spend..

  • One thing i love about wm10..the EGDE browser..this is damn fast and smooth. I was a chrome lover too but Edge has taken the place.

  • It depends on what kind of apps u use..the app store of Microsoft is not that rich as android. But yes..if you are talking about surfing then 640xl is one of the best. Long lasting battery life, fast browsing with 3g+. Again the social apps are yet to prove their worth. Facebook, viber are way outdated. Facebook didnt make facebook app for Microsoft. Now u decide.

  • as i gold you before in WP8.1 UC browser download pause when you minimize app or lock screen.. if you want to wait for final version of W10M release until december then wait because UC team launching new browser after W10M official release.. if nog to wait then no one is forcing you to wait.. its your choice.. you can go with android or any other phone..

  • I have got this information through my trusted sources.. Microsoft added new Background download APIs in W10 SDK.. and UC team working on new browser with these features

  • Are you sure that download stop when screen is locked in "WINDOWS PHONE 8.1" If yes... Then i m not gonna buy this... It's one of the basic need that download should continue even when you lock the screen.(i'm not talking about minimizing) No one keeps the phone away without locking it. i cant believe right now... I was ready to compromise with other things... But sorry man... I cant buy this phone... :-(

  • Yes dear...

  • Sorry....it was disappeared..

  • Yes dear..actually i was using edge browser to download in 2g...after lock, i checked my downloading file, i was disappered..

  • Pls help me guys, IN WINDOWS PHONE 8.1 OR IN WINDOWS 10 MOBILE INSIDER- Does really download stop when we lock screen or after screen time out?

  • Does download interrupt when screen is locked?

  • You r right bro. Since you just wrote that win10 is not completey launched, so how can u say that background downloading feature available...And i wrote already that uc browser is showing version 8.1..not for w10

  • Bro, wait till december 1st week unless ms lanuches WINDOWS10 completey..I am using windws 10 preview ,but not getting background downloading features..Uc browser hd is littel better..but no background downloading...Touch is not responsive like 8.1 ..So pls wait..

  • lol.. what you are expecting from unfinished testing/preview version. final version is coming in december then check and review it.. things are still not ready.. New UC browser with background download is still not available.

  • Installed windows 10 preview on lumia 640 XL hoping new features and tried to download a 350 mb movie..Everything was going very well but as soon as my phone locke up, the downloading file disappeared. I am using 2g netwrk..Edge is really fast but no use if we can't download in background. Uc browser is little changed but still it is showing that this versoin is for windows 8.1..New version is uc browser HD ..no pop ups in new version.. No keypad in rotation mode. I am little disappointed.

  • And dont forget MetroTube is quite powerfull its will automatically change video played to audio when u "minimize" the app. And my favourite app Microsoft Face Swap...its the best lol. And I love the combo of photo editor Fatasia painter + Photostatic + Picsketch Pro = awesome

  • i m a heavy user of internet and apps .,, for tht lumia 640xl is best or not ????

  • Thanks a lot... Now im sure to buy this phone...

  • Dont worry.. as i told before microsoft alrady added new background downloading APIs in W10 SDK.. So app developers can be add new API to their apps for W10M so we can download anything in background even in 2G.. also UC team is working on Brand new UC browser for W10M with these background downloading feature.. also new official Universal facebook, messanger and instagram apps

  • @gaurav.. dude Official Hotstar app is still not available.. all these apps are 3rd party wrapers.. Hotstar developers officialy informed that they are working on WP app.. But they told development of app needs time so users need to wait for some time until they make app.

  • USB tehering is already added in W10M... about Chrome.. it is not a one in world.. Microsoft is working on new "Edge" browser which already beated Chrome and Firefox in HTML5 score.. Microsoft retired Internet explorer now because it is to heavy and lack lots of things.. but Edge is now more powerful browser in Whole Windows 10 system.. so dont worry about this.. no one wants chrome now

  • Hi guys, the only question that is making me wait to buy this phone... Does windows phone keep download in background when we minimize uc browser? 'Cause i read on forum that after minimizing (by pressing windows button and not by back button) the download struggle to continue in background or switching between apps... Is it true? pls help me out guys...

  • yes.. xender, shareit, zapya, dukto are availanle

  • Lumia device support xender or shareit

  • 1- Opera mini : Available ( it is little bit slow and some problems but works really good.. N opera devs working hard to make it more reliable) 2- Current UC browser is really good but lacks background downloading.. Because WP8.1 don't have API for background downloading.. (Don't worry Microsoft now added new background downloading API's in W10M and UC team working on new UC browser for W10M) 3- Applock is not available in WP8.1.. You need to lock whole phone with password But according to my sources Official applock app coming from Microsoft for W10M.. 4- There are lot of Photos n video locker apps available in store.. (Brilli gallery locker, heart locker, Ai locker, NQ vault, Media locker and too many more... Search yourself) 5- there are 2-3 Marathi dictionary available.. Don't know offline or online.. Check yourself, lot of indian constitution apps are there, Newshunt is available, Lots of photo editor apps available (Adobe Photoshop, picsart, fantastia painter, Microsoft fresh paint, phototastic, photofunia and alot more in store) 6- There are alot alot youtube downloader apps available in store.. I use Mytube, perfect tube, metrotube, downtube and alot more in store..(mytube n metrotube shows paid.. But download trial version.. Trial is unlimited.. They only added buy option to help them if anyone want to help) 7- WP os is reach OS so Microsoft not allow to change stock keyboard.. But WP has best stock keyboard than android n ios.... Also download "myappfree" app which offers paid app for free everyday.. For every 24hour new paid app for free Currently i have more than 500 apps n games installed in my L730.. Still no lag..

  • friends when i connect my microsoft lumia 640 xl model phone to my destop of windows 7 operating system i was unable to connect what might be the reason please reply

  • I owned a Nokia 1320 is a beautiful device, but I could feel the weight of somewhat when surfing the Internet to sell this phone .. 50% of its market value and bought 640xl .. beautiful and fast..jt is very good in this price..

  • Hi.. anyone can let me know shall I buy this handset. specially for camera, browsing speed and applications

  • I am glad to have replies from you. Specifically I need following apps 01. Opera mini- as it has best save page option and really very fast and lightweight. 02. Background download enabled uc browser - I use this only for downloading videos, movies, etc 03. App lock - if someone took my phone and I can't directly restrict him then he must not be able to open my personal message, what's app, etc 04. Photos videos lock or hide - specifically my personal photos and videos of family or other must not be easily accessible to anyone who is checking my phone. I heard that many apps available for this but no one is really working. All are fake. 05. Offline Marathi, English dictionary, Indian Constitution, newspaper app like newshunt or else, photo editor. And all them must be free. 06. Tube mate - it's must for me as I download many YouTube videos. If any other applications for downloading YouTube easily then it's fine. 07. Also tell me if there are any keyboards available like SwiftKey in Android for wp. I can't be sure if I will be satisfied with default keyboard Please reply me based on your personal experience. I heard that many apps in Windows phone are claiming so but not doing properly the job. Thanks

  • Its 13 mp camera has noise problem Nokia 5 mp camera is better than Microsoft 640 xl dual sim

  • Recently i have bought M Lumia 640. it's really wonderful and long lasting battery life. But I have notice that few apps it's not supporting like "Google Hangout" , "imo" . Can any one advise on this. Thanks in advance.

  • I use lots of apps on android, pls tell me, which r not on lumia store for windows 8.1, if not, any alternatives? offline- medical dictionary, english dictionary, marathi dictionary, drug/medicine dictionary, materia medica. video player supporting all formats, youtube downloader, music tag editor, offline lyrics, marathi calendar, marathi typing, media converter all to mp3, bluetooth FTP, APPLOCK, VAULT, AUTO CALL RECORDER.

  • Developers needs too much time n hard work to improve their apps and add features.. So be patience and appreciate their work.. And for remaining apps i think project Astoria and islandwood are best methods to port full featured Android n ios apps to W10M.. If you have any doubt or question don't hesitate to ask..

  • About limited features and restrictions..According to my sources Microsoft removing all restrictions like background downloading in 2G , downloading limit is removed for 2G.. You can download any size file, apps n games in 2G network, official Applock feature coming, apps/games backup to SD card, call recording and alot more things coming.. Everything is coming which all Android users demanding but still W10 is most secure OS. But W10M is still not ready and coming later this year.. But don't expect all features at once.. MS planned Two more updates for W10 in 2016 named RedStone. So remaining features coming in these updates. About market share Android is widely adopted because every OEM adopted it.. MS also now trying to convince n invite All OEMs to adopt W10M os and release their own phones so we can see lots of other OEM phones powered by W10 in market in coming months.. This is a primary reason MS now launching lesser devices these days.

  • W10 Desktop OS is highly adopted OS now so app developers attracted towards Desktop OS to make apps.. If developers make app for W10 desktop means it will work on phones as well with small UI modifications. It is necessary to increase app base and good news for this is MS currently working on Project Astoria and project islandwood Which are bridges to convert Android and ios apps to W10M which converts app in few minutes.. So developers which are not interested to develop app to W10M, can port their Android n ios apps n games to W10M. So it will definitely reduce appgap situation of WP.. Also new universal Facebook, messenger, Instagram and more are coming to W10M.. And if everything goes in right direction official Google apps coming as well.

  • It is obvious now lots of users thinking which miracle MS made in W10 OS.. Answer is Unified W10 OS.. What is mean by Unified OS?? Means same OS runs on all screen size devices like Desktop, laptops, tablets, phablets, phones, Xbox console, Hololense, IOTs.. So apps making for this Unified platform known as Universal windows apps that means same code for all apps on Unified W10 platform which means app developer use same code to make apps for all above products.. Microsoft now combined App store as well.. Same app works on all W10 platforms..So it is obvious that MS is not closing WP.. Now WP is part of whole unified W10 and now known as "Windows 10 mobile" n Part of highly adopted W10 PC OS.. MS combined whole thing now.. Single OS for all devices n platforms.

  • initially MS though Desktop n PC would be future but Satya Nadella himself admitted that they were wrong.. Because of high adoption rate of Smartphones which change their mind and he told mobile and cloud computing is biggest thing now days. And they want to stand in Mobile market. So they made WP OS to deliver users ultimate OS.. They made WP7 n after that WP8 then 8.1 and now W10.. Definitely WP os struggled alot n alot.. Still suffering... But MS not giving up.. Before W10 Microsoft's every OS needs separate app development with different coding languages.. And because of less consumer base and less API's developers not made apps to WP OS.. n coz of less apps consumers not adopting WP OS.. Also missing features and restrictions makes negative impact. But with WP8.1 MS removed lots of restrictions. ppls argued alot and suggest MS to close WP division but MS is still not giving up.. its miracle n full efforts of MS n they making W10 OS now..

  • Thank you Piyu .Now a days almost all apps. is available in Windows Store.One thing more want to say all these aps consumes very less space in compare to Android phone and directly install to SD card which is not commonly happens in Android phone.I will suggest to buy Flip over and tampered glass from local market.Buy original Murcury flip cover of Lumia 640 XL it will protect your phone and its very important Lumia 640 XL's camera is sophisticated and Murcury Flip cover will provide a perfect protection to your mobile and camera also.After many research I finally get original Mercury Flip Cover for my Lumia 640 XL now I am very happy.That's why I also suggests you to buy the same Murcury Flip Cover it's very useful.

  • Ya... Microsoft's share will be up from 3.2% to 25% till 2019(confirm from my side). App quality on window is best! Better than all OS. Just need to improve! Developers must be work hard for windows. It's worthy for themselves and even for windows and for windows users too!

  • just tell me which apps you want to use.. give me list n ill tell you available or not and also give you ulternatives

  • just tell me which apps you want and use in your android phone.. just give me list of apps n i will tell these apps available or not.. or alternatives.

  • Hi All, I was Android User for years but there was always a love for windows phone(beautiful interface) in my heart though I didn't pushed me hard to get one for hands-on experience. Finally I made my mind for 640 XL and thought lets give a try. I must tell you initial few days I was struggling and confused on my decision as every navigation was making me feel interface on android was easy. I must tell you this is natural because I spent years on android interface and shift to new windows interface not easy, its human nature changes are not accepted easily :-) I can say slow and steady wins the race - Watched videos on you tube, joined windows central forum , trying hands on device made me feel my decision was good. On competitive edge , discussion on below points needed : - Windows need to stand and increase market share to at least 20 % plus. - How to increase market share. - Why we are launching lesser device compared to android phone. - Dont increase app base, how to improve existing ones. There is huge list in which I can contribute and discuss with relevant authorities from Microsoft if given a chance. Please do share views on my post. Thanks for reading. Take Care. (Rahul Rai)

  • Yeah its possible but it needs a little trick! You need to go to the document that you want to attach first then long press on the document to open share option, choose share then it will display your added email accounts the you can select the email account that you want to use. But if you attach any document from email account directly it wont work. I think this is the area that Microsoft need to work on!!!

  • After my lengthy research I finally bought this baby!! And after 3 weeks of usage, I want to share my experience. 1) Design,build quality&handling- I can say the design of 640xl is just simple and elegant,its such a pleasure using your 640xl in your hands despite being a large device its really light I was really amazed. You need to handle it to believe me! Build quality is really good it doesn't look like some cheap phone, the matte finnish is really good in handling 2) Display- This is the part that at first reading about the display specs I was almost really turned away, but I took my chance and bought it anyway. Believe me guys after purchasing this device and went straight away to test its display,I was really surprised and happy by how the display was good.on paper the display can really be criticized, but in real life usage you will me amazed by it!! Viewing angles are on point,color saturation&reproduction on point,under Sunlight its just awesome! No noticeable pixels And watching your videos will just be astonishing!! 3) Battery life- I wont even dwell on this one, what I can just say battery is the beast! 4) For me I found the sound output to be really good, not to be compared with htc boom but its better than even some flagship! 5) connectivity&call reception - Despite the 640xl dual which I have being a 3G version, network speeds were really good surfing the net was really fast, WiFi was good too I cant complain. Call reception was good too because no one complained of not getting me clearly and I never dropped any call. 5) Gaming- I was really surprised how gaming was good on 640xl! Asphalt 8 airborne was really handle well by the phone there wasn't any noticeable frame drops and it played really smooth. Hill climbing&subway suffers were smooth too! 6) performance - Lumia 640xl is not a tortoise!! Its really first in handling stuff and as you know windows OS is always smooth no lugs experienced at all! It handled anything I threw at it and by the way I have a class 10 64GB micro sd in my XL. 7) conclusion - Lumia 640xl is a lovely device and a good value for money that you can not get in any other device at the same price point, so those guys who are still doubting to get this marvellous phone just got for it blindly!!!

  • Thanks a lot for your beautiful answers All those replied me l730 lvr, Gaurav bigg, santhosh, anonymous and all I got my view cleared I will be ordering this phone online in November. Please finally suggest me that with this phone do I need to order it's flip cover and tempered screen protector? Also I had a question that many are saying there are not alternative apps available on Windows platform unlike android. So please tell me names of commonly used android apps and their alternative to Windows Thanks

  • All three Lumia smartphones 950,950 XL & 550 announced as on 06 Oct.2015 seems like a thoughtful additions and a hopeful fresh start. The new Windows 10 shows massive potential and Microsoft has already proven it has the means to make it the game changer it should have been from the start. Hopefully everything plays well.

  • Existing Lumia phones will start getting Windows 10 in December

  • 1- 3G is really good to use if you are living in 3G area.. Still if you want 4G device then Microsoft launching L640 and L640 xl 4G(LTE) versions in India at the end of this month.. Microsoft announced this yesterday.. 2- Yes 5.7 or 6 inch display is too big and known as phablets.. There are only limited users who prefer big size display phone.. I am using L730 which has 4.7" screen.. So its finally depends on your choice which screen size phone you can handle properly.. Decide it first otherwise L730 is also one of the best phone.. 3- always prefer mette finishes colours.. I am currently using green L730 which is mette.. Order blue or white colour which are mette.. 4- Before Lumia my primary mail account was also a Gmail account.. But now i created outlook account.. Now it is my primary account not because of Lumia or windows ecosystem.. Google is actually fraud and use and check your mails to show or send you advertisements n spam advertising mails.. Microsoft's outlook is very secure and you only receive trusted mails not spams.. You can still add your Gmail account in Outlook app here so you can use your Gmail account as primary account.. I have added 3 email accounts in my outlook mail.. One is outlook id and other two are Gmail ids.. You can receive all your mails like you receive on your android phone.. But to use Microsoft services and app store you need to compulsory create Outlook account. You can also use 3rd party Gmail apps like MetroMail, Maestro and 1Mail which are best now.. Metromail app is currently free for limited time so grab it.. About YouTube there are best 3rd party YouTube apps available in WP store from trusted developers.. Mytube, MetroTube and Perfect Tube these are best YouTube app and free of cost also.. You can download any YouTube video in any resolution and save it in your phone or SD card.. Also biggest rumour floating from yesterday that Today's Microsoft Windows 10 devices Google is officially launching their apps to W10 devices.. Means official Google apps like YouTube, Gmail, hangouts and others Google apps for w10m.. Event is starting 7:30 PM for india if you want to cover.. Microsoft launching More lumia phones today 5- if you are curious about damage then use screengaurd or tempered glass over screen.. It your choice.. BTW i am not using any protection on my L730..

  • Ok

  • Dear I have been reading reviews about Lumia 640 xl since long and finally confirmed my purchase. But I have few questions to experts here, please feel free to answer these 01. It shows 3.5 g. So should I wait for 4g or this is better. Of course I want faster Internet usage with less money. But confused as yet not even the 3g is available throughout the country. 02. All my friends finally prefer 5 inch screen phone and all they are suggesting that 5.7 inch will be too much and very hard to handle. Here users are available who used this phone. Please reply me with your valuable feedback. 03. Which color is better? I am asking with concerned to matte finish. Please suggest best color and tell if it has matte finish or not. 04. I am mostly using Google services like YouTube, Gmail, etc and my primary mail id is Gmail. So do I need to shift everything to Hotmail or any Microsoft mail. 05. I heard issues regarding gorilla glass and the weak body. Please suggest after purchase should I go for screen guard or not. And can I have rough usage with this phone. Thanks a lot dear for all the future answers you are going to give. Please reply detailed and properly

  • Till date there is no exact releasing date for Windows 10 mobile version.

  • How can I do that? Any url for this?

  • What about Windows 10 update for 640 XL? Any timeline for that?

  • 23-July-2015 In GSM Arena News Headlines "Microsoft rolls out software update to select Lumia devices to enable LTE support in India" News in detail "Microsoft has announced that it has rolled out an update to select Lumia devices in India that enables 4G LTE support on these devices. The list of devices include the Lumia 1520, Lumia 1320, Lumia 1020, Lumia 930, Lumia 925, Lumia 920, Lumia 830, and Lumia 625. You will need to go to Settings > Phone update > Check for update to install the update (or wait for the notification to appear on the phone). Once installed, go to Settings > Mobile + SIM to enable 4G if your network provides this service or just leave it on 2G/3G to save battery."

  • It was not my wording If you go through older post of GSM Arena and NDTV Gadget Guru then you will find . It was the month of July "In News it was mention that Some Lumia Device will get OTA update for 4G compatibility.And Nokia Lumia 1320,730,Microsoft 640 & 640 XL was in the list which will get OTA update".So where I was wrong.Why the are spreading the rumour.I don't know

  • Dear Gaurav Lumia 1320 have a 4g hardware capabilities ( 4G band ). So microsoft ota update 4G enable for L1320. but don't have L730 L640

  • Installed windows 10 pre release version again. They made some improvements. Still few issues are bothering. Like call hang, touch becomes irresponsive. Still missing inbuilt photo editing tools, surprisingly facebook doesn't make facebook app for Microsoft mobile thus missing few features. So i am not hopeful regarding this. It doesn't show the photo album. And few more..waiting for full version..lets see

  • Friends,I m using windows 10 preview....and net speed is really super fast ..even in 2g. On Thursday 24 September, I talked with my cousins in Dubai using Skype without any problem,or network problem..video call was very smooth...

  • Such types of problem was solved Lumia 640 & 640 XL Windows 8.1 2nd update out of the box and much better from its predecessor new Whatsapp update is much better than its earlier version so many features is added.There is no any problem in sharing videos and audio files multiple selection now also available in Whatsapp.

  • Great phone, but sometimes the proximity sensor does't work when in some calls and the display not turn off the light.

  • I earlier used 625.. We r unable to share video files in whatsapp and true caller didn't work properly. As these works very fine in Android... Now these problems were resolved or not.. Please let me knw..I m big fan of LUMIA series

  • thanks

  • Since i heard some phones had duplicated gorilla glass display and it breaks easily, then some display having some green or some colored line in corners

  • Lumia 640 XL is good smartphone You can depends on it will never disappoint you.Camera is very good only suffers in low light Otherwise it delivers a decent picks.Under 15K 640 XL camera is unbeatable.

  • @Billy If camera is more important for u then don't think that much just buy 640xl as it has Carl Zeiss lens and hence gives u crystal clear great pics in day light and pics in night are just good. Front cam is just ok ok. Being honest till now truecaller is not working properly on 640xl or might b on windows. Can't able to activate callerID option which means u never get info about caller like on droid. Rest fb, watsapp etc works good. U can share audio files easily as before it wasn't psble.

  • @Fahem It's completely ok. Don't worry as 640xl has big battery and the charger is not turbo. Beside u can check Sony charger.

  • You can download Dead target: Zombie, it's not as good as Dead Trigger in droid as u can't move the shooter. But trust me it's damn good n u love to play it again n again. Never hangs or lag on 640 XL. Rest Candy Crush, Brother in Arms etc.

  • hye bro/sis.. i already used nokia lumia 720,525 and microsoft 540 realy thy are good phones ever... bt i ws bothred abt camera diffrence in nokia and microsoft series... nw i wann go to nokia 720 or ms 640 xl help me

  • my lumia 640XL needs almost 4 hour to full charge. IS something wrong with my phone?? pls anyone help me.....

  • True Caller, Whatsapp and Facebook, Instagram working on Lumia 640 XL.Camera is good only Low light issues in day and Light it delivers a great picks.Battery backup solid,Display is very nice for watching movie sunlight legibility excellent.Internet surfing very fast.Network connectivity very good.Dual Sim swapping very easy.

  • Can I use social apps Like what's up,facebook by lumia640xl

  • Lumia 640 XL is the good choice nice display Very good camera in light but not good at night or low light.Solid battery bacup Internet surfing very fast.You may go for it under 15 K it's a best choice if you want Windows.For Android you may go for Moto G 3rd gen. Only problem (poor display)but perform very good,Samsung J7 or Moto X play very nice phone If you want Android phone.

  • I like lumia but confused a lot. I'm a Music and Internet addict. I just spend more time in listening to songs and downloading more from net and surfing too. Dont want more games and all, if some good quality racing game or mind game will be enough for me. And, some useful apps like True Caller, Whatsapp and Facebook, Instagram and others updated ones. Main thing is the camera needs to be good and high end. So, please guys tell me should i go for it lumia 640XL or for Android??? Please suggest me...both pros and cons of it

  • Microsoft surrenderred to android. Microsoft is giving 30GB Onedrive cloud storage (Formerly known as Skydrive) for android device Where as its giving only 15GB One drive for windows mobile. Why this partiality? We will keep using outlook account on android device.

  • Someone can post anything in YouTube. Lumia 930 is a flagship and 640xl is a mid range device. I have used lumia 920 which has 8mp camera only. But it can take 10 times better photos than 640xl. And lumia 930 has 20mp camera. How someone can compare 640xl with 930!!! Surely gone mad.

  • I have used the first flagship of Lumia that is lumia 920. So i was expecting much better platform in lumia 640xl. But got disappointed when didnt find any remarkable improvements. They didnt workout with the social apps. It is as backdated as before. That made me too annoyed.

  • I am not teaching u anything nor intended to. U have unnecessarily got involved. If u dont like my criticism then just ignore it.

  • Please Friends stop fighting Windows phone is not very bad Sometimes is very amazing in Windows phone.Hope so in future It will more develope nothing is impossible.If we say Windows phone is totally bad then its wrong.Nothing is perfect in this Universe not Android and not even Ios also.Those who want to buy Windows phone buy It and feel the difference.Yes 640 &640 XL is good choice among all Lumia series till date.

  • Is it Lumia 640 xl beats Lumia 930 in camera comparison? Because I saw in youtube

  • Guys.. Is it Lumia 640 xl beat Lumia 930 in camera comparison? Because I saw in YouTube

  • N plz rihan its my personal advice to u stop criticising wp cos its only 4y old. ISO z 11y old and ANDROID 9 old and dey took time to settled in the market ..if u have problem using wp den don't buy it bro. Else develope ur own OS or use Android

  • I've used 8 wp phones 510 520 630 625 720 730 800 now currently using 640 xl. M using wp since its released n I find improvements after updates. Which never find in lagroid. M a IT student stop teaching wat z ryt n wrong

  • Very Soon Nokia will be free from the Shadow of Microsoft.We all are waiting for the Nokia powered Android devices.And surely It will be the game changer in Android market.As Nokia C1 comes with Stock Android.

  • Similarly this will be my last windows mobile. Will be waiting for Nokia again. Hope they will make a way out soon.

  • No such issue till date..this is one aspect that they superseded androids. Android processor by default produce heat. But windows doesn't. You can visit their servicing centre. Try minimizing the background apps.

  • Why Windows 10 will be the Last OS.....?Why Microsoft Looking for the Linux based OS for mobile.....?Why Windows 10 release is too late.....?Why Microsoft destroyed Nokia brand..?Why Microsoft kills Nokia X series smartphone.....?Microsoft's Windows OS not as popular as that of Android dispite of various discrepancies found in Android OS the fact is that majority will die for the Android phone mostly because Iphone is too costly.Windows fails to challenge Android.I am also a windows phone usser and like Windows OS but we have to agree that Android is the undisputed winner in smartphone market and its the only truth.All latest innovation still running on Android OS.Qualcomm and Android together working on the 3D OS.Windows is far away from such type of innovation.

  • Why Windows 10 will be the Last OS.....?Why Microsoft Looking for the Linus base OS for mobile.....?Why Windows 10 release is too late.....?Why Microsoft distoy Nokia brand..?Why Microsoft kill Nokia X series smartphone.....?Microsoft's Windows OS not as popular as that of Android dispute of various discrepancies found in Android OS.

  • Exactly..that made me disappointed too. No clear statement when they will give us the update.

  • Why dont you ignore my opinions brother?

  • Hi Gaurav, How much data required to update in WINDOWS 10 for 640 xl..?

  • Problem of Microsoft they are don't stick to their word in the month of July they said 1320 ,730 640 &640XL will get OTA update for 4G copitability.1320 got OTA update within a week but 730 640 & 640 XL not get OTA update for 4g copitability till date.Earlier they said all Lumia since 520 to till date will get guarantee update of Windows 10.But now only few Lumia device will enjoy Windows 10.You have to know 512 Mb ram device having limited feature of Windows 10 if available and Windows 10 minimum requirements is 1GB RAM along with 8 GB internal storage how Pathetic.Motorola is Stick to it's word by providing timely Android update to all its devices from lower end phone to higher end phone.Microsoft vision is not clear about Smartphone they still wondering Windows 10 still under development age.Actual release date was in the summer 2015 with Android 5.1 but now we are in near winter Android M 6.0 is in our door step but still there is no exact date of Windows 10 till date,So Pathetic Microsoft.

  • Moto g 3 is better than 640xl? Is it right?

  • Why lumia 640xl is the best mobile phone? Few silly answers..it has a big screen, camera is awesome, ms office and bla bla bla. I feel piety for them who over rated this device. This is the worst mobile i have ever used. The main purpose of a mobile is connectivity. And it has the poorest connectivity as most of the social apps are way back dated. Camera is an additional feature. Reading few comments it feels that we buy mobile for taking photographs. Poor me as i own such a crap.

  • Are you facing heating issue on lumia 640xl? how can i fix this??

  • I need a one as it.

  • Hi MacTavish, first you have to use original micro sim not cutted manually, second you have to do a hard reset by about>reset (factory reset), but know that by doing this step all your data will be deleted so make a backup or save the photos videos contacts..in onedrive for example or on your pc.. let me know if that fix the problem :)

  • good battery life Max 6 days

  • I am having a problem with calling too Happens every often and its irritating When I call the ring does not go and when I try to hang up it just displays ending and we can wait forever for it to end I have to switch off my phone and start it again and it works fine for some time then again the same problem persists I asked the retailer about the problem He says that it is network problem I have two different Sims and both cant have the same problem Please help if you can

  • gmail on android is getting poorer and poorer day by day..and now its most frustating experience. gmail test on android p780 and outlook email test on microsoft lumia 640 xl. Gmail updated app on p780 take ages to sync . currently inbox is showing 1 new msg, im trying to sync it from 30 mins, it has already drained 8% of my battery but still i cant see email. Gmail factory version on p780 is good..it does takes some 8 to 10 mins to sync but new email does appers. but outlook email is fastest.. in syncd 20 emails in 13 minutes.. at completing 25 mins i was done with reading and farwarding some 8 necessary emails all this at expence of 5% battery usage.. please note network used on both devices was same in On updates usually company tries to give better service, but in gmail case updates sucks and left me frustrated..

  • Almost perfect phone. Except for resolution. Fast browsing, camera is great it even beats other flagship.

  • Internal memory 8gb is obnoxious, hear we get cheaper price. Gpu Cpu are outdated. Having a big screen size with all paraphilia then good results, than only size but junk all hardware with No Resale as only 3 months past its released. Its available fr 175$ boxed warranty. Just see the plight of MS releases. Same size 950XL better specs is asking 850$.

  • I can't find an app as good as android photogrid in windows store for cropping because I'm in Kenya. And it also doesn't connect well to wordpress.com for blogging. The WordPress native app is not available for Windows phones. Also, some menu items that are related to each other are not clustered together.. e.g. Screen rotation and brightness should all be under display. And when I crop photos manually and save them, the original photo disappears ☹

  • 640XL has poor resolution 720*1280 bigger size makes it more. Nokia shud have left experts to guide MS way of handling. There is nothing special or outstanding in this fone.

  • For Windows ussers 640XL is the best choice till date.All spec are good.

  • This phone does not support background downloads that's how Microsoft runs this phone on such low rams basically there is no multitasking haha 😆 and it doesn't support flashplayer videos for same reason

  • First decide what do u want from your mobile. Basing on your requirements we can suggest whether this will be useful or useless.

  • No. This version is not yet tested. Wait for full version.

  • good buy microsoft. i took this phone for 15000 and sold at 10,000 INR. no app for yahoo mail,,for me yahoomail is source of my bread and butter..it has inturrepted my business...so now back to android,,

  • Chang your phone region to china which you will find in phone setting - Restart your phone Then go to Windows store and install Moliplayer its free.Moliplayer China version is free.Then after change your region again to India and enjoy your video.

  • I am interested to buy a Microsoft Lumia 640 XL, is it possible to use as laptop partially?

  • Is it safe to update in windows 10 now ?

  • please guys help me.. i couldnt find any good free app to play videos in my 640 XL moliplayer is not free . what u use ?

  • Lumia 640xl are good but this mobile. Front. Camera. Are very bad..

  • 1520 ,1320 and 640 XL definitely for web browsing.

  • After using 640 XL for complete three months.I can say it's a great product no issues till date every specs work flawlessly.Proximity Sensor,Magnometer ,Ambient light Sensor all sensor are doing a good job.Battery backup still solid.Camera capture a decent picks.I can't lie If the product is good and working perfectly then why should I say any thing wrong about the product.Well done Microsoft keep it up.

  • plz... help me i m not able to recive data from android phone using shareit ... when we send android user recive but when they send our phone doesnt connect with each other. plz tell anybody is there who recive from android

  • Yah..i am already away from it. I m not a developer (nor intend to be a). Thanks.

  • If u need office app then windows device will be good for you. And about camera, it can take good picture in day light (u will get good image of static objects only coz it takes time to focus). but in low light the camera performance is not satisfactory. All the best.

  • I have ordered Lumia 640 xl phone today , after many disscusion to buy whether lenovo vibe z2 or x2 or Lumia 640 xl. because i was looking for a good camera and for the use of Microsoft office apps . I hope , i will love this mobile :)

  • Pre-release suggests tons of bugs :(. Unless you are an experienced (or intend to be a) beta tester, keep your distance away from pre-release versions :)

  • My lumia 640xl dual sim phone some times display is blur.. Switch off & on after its normally Display.. What's problem ? please help me..

  • please dont be fooled by the pre release version of Windows 10. This pre version is not tested and full of bugs. The moment you will be one of the member of Windows Insider (this is the gateway through which your phone will be updated to windows 10) you will receive lot of terms and conditions. Where they will warn you about possible affects of this pre release version. common are hanging, crash of various apps, unable to open apps even unable to call..most importantly if any damage happens due to this pre release version that may void your warranty. Those who already bought this device i will recommend not to install the pre release version. Wait for more couple of months.

  • Yes its dual sim.. manual cut sims may create problem..

  • Thanks Kanvin for your response, your phone is it dual sim? did you use original micro sim or manually cutted micro sim? me im using one original the other is cutted, support said that first i hav to change this cutted micro sim but i dont know if this will solve it because the problem is with two sims :ss i think i will try hard reset and see because i face this problem only after hanging up a call :(( you too?

  • I was really excited regarding windows 10 as 640xl would receive the update at the very first go. But didn't realize the tricks of pre release version. Then Rolled back to 8.1 after severe disappointment. Now this device has no value to me.

  • Yes bro..this device is perfect for them who needs fully featured ms office in their mobile. I knew about the limitations as i have used lumia 920. And again bought lumia hoping that the latest version (windows 10) will eliminate these problems and makes it user friendly. But that went in vain. Now a days people change mobile in every 6 months. And waiting couple of months for a update is not worthy. Now decided to sell it off and switch to samsung or asus.

  • Yes I agree with you apps lover will not going to like Lumia devices it's actually a business phone.And it perform business functions brilliantly,best office package preloded great battery backup smart messaging and dual sim selection feature and great internet surfing experience available only in Windows Phone.In Windows WhatsApp is not as glamorous as that of Android.Sometimes WhatsApp crashed due to multiple post and video.Such thing can't be happened in My Moto G 2013.Whatever multiple post and videos it handles very smoothly.Yes Moto G is the great Android smartphone I ever seen in the market.

  • now a days i dont use my 640 XL except for call and text purpose and only taking photos in the day light. it makes me annoyed when i open facebook and viber. coz it doesnt even let me post a photo in somebody's timeline, no comment reply, no sticker and viber doesnt allow video call. simply bullshit.

  • i know about all these apps. thats not the solution bro.. why should i need to install 3rd party app or separate apps for editing whereas other OS provide integrated editing features? Do you want to mean that the similar price tag android mobiles dont give integrated editing features? what windows is providing is good enough???

  • if you are social network lover then dont buy windows mobiles. Android is the best for social apps.

  • As far as photo editors are concerned, ample number of applications are available in store. Besides MS default creative studio, other free third party applications for photo editing are camera 360 sight, oneshot camera and 1Shot camera, Adobe photo shop express etc. These tools offer reasonably rich editing facilities. This phone provides more features than that can be expected at this price tag.

  • Hp microsdhc class 10 not detected in my Lumia 640 xl. Does anybody have solution of this issue. I tried class 4 and it worked but its processing is slow.

  • Should I buy 640XL? ? What about its services?? I need goood social networking and big size?

  • Wait for windows 10. With this they are trying to make similar platform for pc and mobile.

  • Yah..that's why i rolled back to 8.1

  • does it works like a pc

  • does it works like a pc

  • Just keep in mind that Windows insider program is for testing purpose. So don't complain or argue if you installed it.. Mobile OS is still not completed and under development because of this you noticing many bugs which you want to report them using feedback app as you are now windows insider member.

  • What kind of review do u need? Pls be specific then we can help. I wrote a overview. Scroll down and u may read. But thats regarding the pre release version of win 10.

  • Hi guys, i've been using this phone for 1 month. And this is my review, hope you guys take it easy. Pros : 1. Great battery life, this phone survive 1 day and a half. In heavy usage (text, email, call, internet, gps, bla bla bla) 2. This phone have a great camera for it's range. It has a great screen also. Very impressive camera setting. 3. Good internet speed (depends on your provider) 4. Nice gaming and apps. 5. Offline maps is great And here is the cons : 1. Low ram (1gb) for those who love to install anything useless apps. 2. Low internal memory. But it's also depend on the usage. Technically, BACK ON YOUR NEEDS. I'm not gonna say that this phone is best for all of you. This phone fits me very well :)

  • Lumia 640 XL is a perfect smartphone in mid range.Everything in this smartphone made this it a must buy product.You will never regreat to have this beautiful smartphone.

  • Buddy, do one this take full back up of your photos, contacts and all the stuff u have in phone and memory card.. Then remove the memory card and hard reset your phone (if you don't know how to do it? just google about it or go to service center) once hard reset done switch on the phone immediately.. in switch off mode remove bat. put the memory card and sim inside. Then again do soft reset and this time choose option to erase data from memory card also. Once done.. don't install all the apps immediately let the phone settle for one or two days and install apps one by one. I had same problem with 630 did the same thing and its working like charm now... no hanging no lagging no freezing.. While installing check if the app needs memory cards support for anything if not required remove or untick the option.

  • Shit i made mistake coming here to read review about 640XL. 99% reviews done here are for Windows vs Android and it sucks... not even 1% real 640XL reviews.. WTF..

  • Not all apps are available for all Android smartphones. A relatively small number of Android apps are tablet only. More pertinantly, because of the multitude of different versions of Android that abound on smartphones old and new, app makers struggle to keep up with every flavour, and will often target only the most popular. So if you have a handset with Android 2.3 you can choose from a very different list of apps from which those with an Android 5.1 smartphone can choose.

  • go to Photo and try to edit one..there is nothing except crop, enhance and rotate... this is what i called outdated. do u need more names? even my old model android tab (version 4.2.1) has much more integrated edit features.

  • Be specific of an application which is not compatible, name it.. Don't be rum our monger.. All games apps and everything works with a GB of Ram. Only outdated Cpu Got but they work, hell with their nos.

  • Consistently holding market share between 2-3%. Hope they reach double figure in next 10 years. Bro, if your opinion was correct then why they are nowhere? Android is the most user friendly OS available. iOS have not yet claimed that android is their copy-cut. Is this your personal statement? Whatever, i loved windows but now decided to go for android. Coz they cant read the mind of common people. They are trying to create a group of windows lover like apple but miserably failed.

  • Android Smartphone is totally different from the Windows Smartphone.Those who Love Windows will never go for the Android.Android itself not the perfect OS.Android is nothing but the Copycat of IOS.But Windows OS totally different.Windows phone have it's own class and its own market.Slowly but contiguously showing its presence in the market.And its totally Windows effort and its hard work.

  • Don't ever buy this phone, crap phone. A lot of applications is not compatible, it's not a good phone.

  • My complete review regarding 640XL dual sim. Hope this will give u a clear idea about this phone. Advantages: Size: 5.7 inch will give u a feeling of a fablet. Good for gaming and watching videos. Bigger letter size and bigger keyboard. Display: Good, sunlight readability is very good. Camera: both front and rear camera are good in day light. OS: the windows 8.1 demin was quite stabe but the pre release version of windows 10 is yet to be stable. Cant fully review unless the full version is released. Battery: long enough battery life, removable battery. Sim: dual sim and both sim supports 3g. External memory: suports external memory. Browser: the intigrated microsoft edge browser will give u lot of freedom. You can pin any page in the home screen. Settings: categorised settings. With many customization options. Call: user friendly, block number option. Onedrive: 30 gb free storage. Office: ms office. Action panel: full featured in win 10 version like android. Direct reply sms: u can directly reply sms from notification panel. Heating: no over heating issue. Voice command: u can write sms, take note by voice command ( only in windows 10) Lenses: different lenses available like Office lense for capturing documents. Disadvantages: Size: difficult to operate in single hand. Camera: poor image quality in low light. Single LED flash. Sim and memory card: placed inside. Need to open battery to remove memory card. Sim swape: difficult to swape sim while calling. Photo: grouped according to date, albums from memory card will not be shown. Have to scrool long to find an old photo. Store: not much apps like android. Direct call/sms: no direct call/ sms widget like android but u can pin a contact in the home screen. Facebook: lot of features missing.

My opinions are based on a regular user not technical point of view. Technical specs are available in the specs section. Thanks.

  • Already using pre release version of win 10. What they are trying to do is already done by other OS long before. Not only the chipset, the whole OS system is outdated. Coz they are way behind others.

  • Both the set 730 and 640 XL is the best choice 730 having oled display Ppi 312 very sharp display selfie camera is great rear camera good , battery backup also good and above all its size is perfect 4.7" is very handy to use with single hand.On the other hand 640 XL is one of the most popular Windows smartphone.Windows 8.1 2nd update out of the box.Very nice phone display is good but not like 730 oled display viewing angle very good colours apears very punchy & attractive.Watching video on 640 XL is just great experience.640 XL Camera (13 mp) slightly better than the 730 (6.7 mp). Camera. 640 XL Front camera is good but not as good as 730.Battery backup is superb.Sunlight readability is great even in the brightest day you never feel uncomfortable while using it Touch is very responsive.Only disadvantage I personally feel it's size can't handle with the single hand.If you have no issue with size then just go for the 640 XL it's a best Windows phone at very resonable price.

  • Only craze left of 640 xl is first to get Windows 10, when and how its debatable. Nothings extra ordinary just the flow of emotions. Its end of story fr Window, no further numbers but patches securities only. Lets assume outdated Soc with one GB Ram can power Win 10, amazingly when marshmallow needs 4GBRam 820 Soc.

  • I am highly regrating buying this 640 xl. Will never buy any windows mobile ever in my life.

  • Guys, Plzz help. Confused. Lumia 640XL or Lumia 730. Which one will be better.

  • Guys, Plzz help. Confused. Lumia 640XL or Lumia 730. Which one will be better.

  • I have a Lumina 520 phone. Not at all happy. Only IE is working, not allowing to install any other browser except opera. when I am browsing and reading something this IE used to close automatically. When am switching from one window to another, the IE used to refresh itself which makes me to loose all my typed data on that page. Sending a small video file using bluetooth is not happening. looks like struggling with low memory. still so many issues am facing often. build quality is good, appearance is attractive, compact size. overall am not satisfied with this phone. since already i spend on this, atleast next two years I should use this, since my parents wont allow to buy mobile often. my friend have a nexus7 tablet, it is excellent. next time i will buy only Android phone. I dont want windows phone again.

  • If you are a fun lover, wants to enjoy the social apps to its fullest then DON'T buy windows mobile. Need proof? Just use any windows mobile, open facebook, go to settings, go to feedback..then u will see numerous complain from all around the world.

  • Why imo application not working on windows phones

  • 200$ net off, black not bad but compromise on ppi and camera. Most important never ever heats nor hangs nor restart, can say its a Windows credit with 1GB Ram. All updates to apps are 20-50kb size, and very seldom. If you compare Android its more hassle free😉.

  • 640XL is par bellow specs phone. Esp MS has never bothered to give a serious touch n PPI Camera and Sound. All are sub standard. Available is only white or black that is warranty period started.

  • Bro, Its not a prediction rather fact. I am using the pre release version (installed through Windows Insider). so i know whats going on with my device while using.

  • The pre release version of windows 10 is not yet stable. The common signs are force close (crush) various apps, unable to open photos, auto screen lock etc. It doesnt have land scape key board. But hoping that the complete version will eliminate all the draw backs. Waiting for that.

  • Windows 10 official update yet to come then how couuld you predict that the Windows 10 is not stable.We haven't say anything until or unless We receive the official update of Windows 10.Let it be come officially.Microsoft working hard for the improvement of Windows 10 since last year.We are sure the developers will not left any discrepancies and will make Windows 10 perfect then ever before.

  • Now, file manager app available in Windows Store you can download and can see all file and share too. Rest of apps probably update coming days

  • Official Release date of Windows 10 mobile version most probably will be available in the month of November 2015.

  • Anybody has got any idea about the release of the complete and tested version of windows 10? Thanks in advance.

  • yes..you are right in security point of view. but now a days windows; even iOS is not purely sealed from unauthorized access. In fact at present days no OS is full proof. Now point is, should i be much concern about the security? i am not a VVIP nor CIP..i am a common person who loves to enjoy the social apps and stay connected with friends and family with the use of my mobile phones. I don't store confidential data in my phone. So i have nothing to worry about loosing any valuable data/information. Yes..8.1 denim was much better than this 10. after updating to windows 10, number of issues have raised..force close different apps..even if i press back button for several times the screen gets locked. then i need to reopen the app. i dont know if this represents the example of a stable OS. Unless they allow us to access google play store then within very short time they will be finished. Coz already they have lost one of their dedicated customers and i wont ever recommend any one to buy windows mobiles.

  • it's good mobile to see in hand having great features like one Drive ,document viewer and etc... Batery support is good if we compare to other brands. I didn't find hanging issue at any time if running multiple tasks at same time..

  • It's well known facts Android OS having supremacy In Smartphones market it's unbeatable.Besides various discrepancies found in the Android but it still capture the market.Windows is nowhere Windows % is just tiny.I am also an Android usser since 2011.But I opt for the Windows due to the lack of Stability and unsecured Android OS you have to agree that Windows OS is highly concerned about Its security.Windows OS is Optimized and Styles OS than the Android. Android makes more sense for some mobile users as it's a robust platform for tablets and phones. It's now making its way onto the desktop, too. Those wanting a pure mobile UX can do well with Android. Windows is a better mobile OS than some realize, and it would be a mistake to overlook it. Mobile devices of all types are now available with Windows 8.1, and that alone could be an advantage for some over Android.

  • Well..not only me..but rest of the world thinks every thing is in android..so please control your emotion and look at the stats: Market share of android, iOS and windows are shown respectively in the last few years.. 2012: 59.2%-22.9%-2.0% 2013: 75.5%-16.9%-3.2% 2014: 81.2%-15.2%-2.5% 2015: 78.0%-18.3%-2.7% So u can see windows doesnt even stand for the competition. According to Forbes the android and iOS have destroyed the competition while windows is struggling for sustaining. As on 2015 78 people out of 100 using android where windows user is nearly 3. Do u think they are fool? Windows is no where near android so please stop being emotional and dramatic. Coz reality is something that u won't realize.

  • hahaha..how old are u kid? STOP judging me..You are not good enough and enough Old to judge me.

  • this is the 9th Nokia/Microsoft device i m using (out of these 2 had windows OS). Shouldn't be enough for delivering my opinion?

  • DON'T judge me rather judge the phone..by reading your comment it seems like you are reviewing me instead of the device. I dont appreciate who instead of helping starts criticizing people. If you are so experienced then give me some solutions how to overcome these limitations? can you add the features that are missing in this device? My point of interest is the social apps. My opinions are based on my user experience. I may not have that experience like you but good enough to understand the advantages and disadvantages.

  • I have been using microsoft lumia 640 xl for last 2 weeks. And I'm completely satisified. This phone has great features with no cons. If it comes to rating I will give 10/10. The great features are:- 1. Camera quality( front and rare ) superb my family too say, 2. Great call quality, 3. Screen size which makes it easier for typing, 4.Smooth performance no lags and never heats up ,5. Battery backup excellent , 6. fits easily in pocket, 7. Apps are awesome and sufficient yet some important apps are missing. I love this phone very much + every lumia series and Microsoft. I recommend this to everyone . So go for lumia , use it and have fun . It is much better than android. And the greatest feature is kids corner + cortana. .

  • You should have researched the information before you buy this phone. I get ur point saying that camera isn't the first concern to make a decision in buying phone, but you also arguing to show you proofs that this phone having a disappointing camera. But after you are given the proof by someone and that person told you to learn how to use this before you arguing, you even don't want to accept it. You said it again that you can use a mobile phone camera properly, but you are just not. However, I read many of your opinions are based on disappointment and hatred, dramatic emotionally, not based on your experience. Maybe, but just a little. A wise people talking the advantage and disadvantage of something while putting comment, because they experience it. Just be a wiser people. Sorry to say that. ;)

  • Like you use everything for android !lol! Even u dnt know how to use android max! Win can run asphalt 8 even on 512 mb ram! Battery sucks at android! And boy u dnt install 1000000000000000 apps that android gives u..! Dont review bad if u dnt kno stuff! 640xl is the best fon in d range! If u r so frustrated get an s6!lmao

  • Well does that matter? The OS is smooth as butter..battery life is like powerhouse! As far as apps are concerned,android os sucks the battery with the apps..no matter li ion,li po.. I hav been avid android user tracing from gingerbread.and i realized now,android doesnt have life.beta version? It still works! Its india,we dont have 3g at ll times,where does video calling comes?? Where does these features are actually used by user instead of simply chatting..android users oversee the fact that whatever they are using is on windows,its the hype of android. Wait fr windows 10 and lumia ll b topp! As its already on low scale fons!

  • I have been using this mobile for the past two months. Initially I got disappointed with the quality of pictures taken in indoors at nights. However on going through discussions in various forums, I learnt that there is no problem with Zeiss lens. The problem is auto settings are not suited to night conditions. We have to set manually ISO to 64 or 100, shutter speed to 1/4 to 1/8 for indoor night conditions, 1/8 to 1/15 for outdoor night conditions. Under these settings, I am getting decent pics at nights also. Otherwise one can use proshot, one shot, 1shot camera or blink applications at nights in indoors. Now I am totally satisfied with the quality of pictures in both conditions.

  • Well, i bought this phone to replace my former Android phone, LG G2. At the first time, I bought this phone because the store sale all the Nokia Lumia phones, included 1520 which was my fave, but unfortunately, it ran out of stock. Then I tried to find another phone (yes am looking for Windows Phone), and here it is. I bought this one because the price is reasonable and whenever I looked at the specs, tried with my own hands, I love it. But still, price takes the role anyway. I found many problems using this. I am not saying I can't adapt to this new OS. I used to use iOS, Android, BlackBerry, and well, all I can say, I am a lil bit disappointed by this phone. If you guys looking for fun and concern to the social media apps, avoid this one. But if you guys concern a lot to use Office apps and Microsoft Apps, you gotta love this one. Battery is damn good. I can use it for a day till mid nite. Charger issue doesn't bother me, I change with another charger. Camera is not good enough, esp when taking photo in the dark place (yess, noises everywhere). 8GB internal won't be a problem, you can install apps to your SD card , exceptional for WhatsApp (I don't know why anw). I didn't say I regret to buy this. Still, there is nothing better compare to iPhone, till now.

  • just for looking peace, not work properly, all apps will get crashed if we keep on using for a long time, and it don't have 4g option that is the main problem, I am very much unsatisfied with this mobile.

  • Only a good camera cannot be the reason to buy a mobile. Its the interface..how does the mobile let you interact with its apps, should be the main concern. If it doesn't allow you to use an app with full feature then that kind of device should be avoided. Coz we use mobiles to keep connecting. A good camera is an added feature only. Capturing photos is not the main task of a mobile phone.

  • A suggestion...if you are a social apps lover (facebook, viber, instagram, whatsapp etc) then please do not buy windows mobiles. They lacks lot of featutes that will make you disappointed. Take an android mobile and compare with windows if you really wants to buy it. Do not regret like me. I knew the lackings but bought one hoping that windows 10 will recover these short comings. But no..they didn't update the apps yet and don't know how long we have to wait for full featured social apps.

  • Bro, why do u insist others to buy this phone? Lumia 640xl is the worst phone I have ever used. What u will do with the display if there is nothing much to see? What u will do if the photo app doesn't work? Have u ever heard thay people cant view the photos? This is what we are suffering. For last two days the microsoft photo app is not working. People who love to use the full featured social apps, should not, I repeat, should not buy microsoft mobiles.

  • People who don't know what they need, have to browse 1000 apps...the official facebook, viber app of microsoft is the worst. Missing lot of features. U cant change profile pic, cover photo, no reply button and many more. Viber doesn't have video calling feature, yet some people say its the best phone. Just a good camera and moderate display with outdated chipset are not good enough.

  • Another issue...from yesterday the microsoft photo app is not working. I don't know what rubbish going on inside the developer team. When I went to send a feed back, I found thousands of similar complain have already been made. Whenever we open the photo, it shows the thumbnails but cant see any individual photo, automatically force closed. Who says this crap is one of the best phone??? Feel like to throw it to the waste box. Disgusting. All my passion for microsoft devices have lost. Will never ever buy any of their product.

  • I don't agree with you 640 XL camera very good performer.Yes it suffers only in low light.But overall it delivers the decent picks.

  • Dear SJ , Thanks for reply . U're not getting my point properly - actually , what I'm saying - whenever software makes their update as in upcoming feature , first it comes to android version , then it would appear in Win OS platform after couple of month ... assume - facebook video-calling option... when FB started it , as soon as appear in Android and after couple of month , it was in Win OS . Like-wise , whatever , facebook version goes in Win OS platform , somebody says it as " beta version " - u can't do any display pics/ cover pics change , - means , lacks lots of usual feature what we actually get in Android version .

  • Are you kidding me? Whatsapp gave updates on windows much faster than android this time w.r.t to the unread option individual mute color scheme in smileys.. Research ur stuff..windows has all the main apps and unlike android it just doesnt hv 100000000 useless apps to browse through all day! Windows os is the future! Not jelly lolli and maarshmellow!

  • Awesome mobile...... There is no problem at all. I am satisfied with this phone.

  • i got lumia 640 xl from online store..when i saw the reviews of 640 xl it was damn amazing...camera and battery mainly...but when i got this mobile in my hands i was disappointed...how can a 13mp cam gve less quality of pics compared to nexus 5 with 8mp cam and the battery life...for moderate usage we can get 1 and half day...nd i thnk mine is not a moderate usage below than that and my batery dies withn in one day...guys tel me what to do with dis

  • Win OS , as compare with Android - most of , users told that - most , of usual n frequently used appas are missing in Win OS like Instagram ... and most of social networking platform like - Facebook , whatsapp is running as its " beta version " ... means , lacking of present feature . Even , you can't do gmail chat in Win OS platform - is it so ??

  • After using various smartphones of different brand I can definitely say that Lumia 640 640 XL & 730 is the best smartphones under 15K.Display is very bright you haven't feel any dullness in while watching full HD video colour production is very good even in (lowest mode) sunlight readability great .Yes among these 730 is the best in display quality (having 312 ppi along with Oled display best in class)retina type display and 4.7" perfect size for the smartphone.But all three are the best in class.Fantastic signal connectivity no network issue.WIFY is great.Battery at par.Camera unbeatable but (only struggle at night noice level visible),build quality is very good impressive one, no heating issues .Windows OS now very improved .And day by day improving more and more and yes it's highly optimized OS.Some features are amazingly beautiful on Windows Phone.Friends Take a chance and buy it.You will never regreat to have this masterpiece.

  • Is there windows 10 upgrade for this device??

  • Change your charger. Take a charger with more Amphere. Like 2.41A

  • Moliplayer Pro

  • Everything was great until installation windows phone 10 beta . At present, all properties have a problem and make me angry - Picture library is loadiii ....... ng , if disconnected gps cand find my position and force off of gps to find my position etc. on time returned to the factory version,shall i did not install win 10 beta

  • it has very gud features and does'nt have any problem with this phne,,,,,its camera is so amazing,,,,,windows beats the andriod alwayzzzz...

  • Android is not the Stable OS - My Moto E 1st gen. After Lolipop update 5.1 memory leakage problem accrued.Network connectivity issue.KitKat version was much much Stable.Better to hold KitKat version.Such type of issues will not come in Windows phone and never heard such type of issue.But is common in Android devices.I don't know when Android will be stable and eliminate such types of issue really pathetic.

  • My Moto E 1st gen.

  • Which phone is better in your opinion, Samsung Grand 2 or Lumia 640 xl? I'm planning to buy one of them and I just can't decide. Please help! Thank you!

  • Yes Office package is free in all Windows phone.Windows phone are amazingly good Smartphone.

  • Are there, Lumia 640 xl availables, free office aplications (word, power point, etc) for user forever, not buy licences? thx4'urs atnsion'.

  • My device takes about 4 hours to fully charge from 0 to 100%, Is this normal? the charger output is 0.750 mA

  • This is how windows wants to compete with android? They are not even bothered to upgrade the social apps. We use mobiles to keep connected. Thats why microsoft mobiles are not popular in Bangladesh. I dont see any of my friends, colleagues or relatives using windows phones. But i bought coz i have a soft corner for Nokia. But i did a mistake. Will never recommend anyone to buy MS devices.

  • Truly speaking..this device is far way behind that contemporary android device. Mare a good camera is not enough. Its official facebook app is just a crap, doesnt have even reply button and lacks many features. there is no video call in viber. From which aspect i can call it one of the best device?

  • Bro, its updated to windows 10 and auto update is enable. I get regular apps and feature update. But unfortunately i am not happy with this device. I have a old model android tab. That works faster than this.

  • Bro Microsoft Lumia 640xl is great phone I think your phone is need update

  • i used a lumia 920 which has a 8mp camera with carl zeiss optics..then i bought lumia 640xl which has a 13 mp camera with carl zeiss optics too..hoping that 640xl would capture almost similar quality photos. but on ground there is huge difference in image quality (in low light) that made me real disappointed. if u have used a 920 then u will understand the difference. i have no complain about its photos taken under bright light.. this phone costs 20000 Taka here. forget about 920, even comparing with similar price tag phones, the image quality of 640xl is low light is far behind..thats where i am concern.

  • thanks for your concern regarding my issues..i know how to use a mobile camera..

  • thank u

  • Reply to raihan.bd, and his post: "i m using Nokia phones since 2004..i have seen nokia 1100 to lumia 920...it seems that u are a paid agent of Microsoft. what ever i said are damn true..show me a proof that it can take good pictures in low light. Show me that u can charge it fully in one hour..show me that it can browse in 2G or 2.5G..." You wanna proof of low light pictures? So here it is. Both pictures are taken in same light conditions, in a dark room with closed windows shutters, without flash, but with different options. Frist image is with automatic settings Second image is put on ISO100, and shutter speed 4s So before you argue about camera, first learn how to use it. Sorry on my english.

  • Lumia 730 having great display near to retina type display .Capable rear camera front camera is just a great but not as good as Xperia C3,and good battery backup.Lumia 640 Having nice display Not as good as 730,solid battery backup,good in camera.640 XL is again good display not like 730 & decent camera rear & front but not in dark in dark noise level is high and its visible too. 640XLSlightly bigger 5.7" 730 4.7" is just a perfect size easy to operate with single hand.Battery backup is at par simply superb.All three Lumia Smartphones 730 ,640 & 640 XL having great sunlight readability. Overall all three sets have their own advavantage & disadvantages .

  • Dear I am not an agent of Microsoft, I am a simple consumer,& I also have a Lumia 640 XL.If you go through my earliest post I was mentioned many negative remarks over 640 XL but as soon as I came close to this set then Slowly I understand the Windows OS.Actually I was Android usser.And didn't like Windows phone.But after that I also apologize for what I had said about the 640 XL.So I just want to say Lumia 640 XL is one of the best choice available in the market.Under 15K what is your expectations.Overall 640 & 640 XL is the solid set.And is the Quality product.And a good performer in all aspect.I agree It's not like Android Phone but I hardly find any discrepancies in this phone.I always appreciate the real performer.For ex. Moto G 3rd gen is also a good product.Mi 4 & One Plus One also a good one.

  • bro, why did u said i am spreading rumors? do i have any enmity with Nokia/Microsoft? Rather i went back to them again and again. i tried to switch Android but came back home buying a Nokia product. So dont perceive an idea that i hate their products. i didnt have any complain about Nokia E52, Nokia x2, lumia 920 and other Nokia phones i have used in the past. Now i m criticizing Lumi1 640XL coz i am facing these.

  • Go to nearest axis mall or go city centre 2.😊

  • Firstly go through my comments regarding 640 XL I had never said 640 XL camera is great at night I always said it suffers at night with noises. When & where I said battery having quick charge.It takes 3.30 from 20 to 100 % hr for complete charge from 0 to 100 % takes 4.10 hr Yes it never lags.At this price range it's camera is much much better than the other Mobile in the market.Mi 4 camera is better in this sigment.Overall performance is very good touch is very responsive,great battery backup,Watching HD video is just a great.Glance screen great.Sunlight readability great.Camera is great in day light but it suffers in dark noice level is high (at dark) but deliver a good picks in light even in night also.Navigation unbeatable Here map is just a great.Preloded Office package is the precious gift by Microsoft.1gb ram is enough for Windows OS no issues with Qualcomm 400 processor even Nokia 830 having the same processor with same clock speed.Most of the apps directly install to SD card is the advavantage of Windows OS.16 Gb internal well and good but 8 Gb internal storage doesn't matters.

  • please read the review from gsmarena about this phone..i m quoting few.. 1. about my internal storage issue they said... "Main disadvantages Dated chipset No secondary microphone About 3GB of internal storage available to the user" 2. about lagging they said... "The Snapdragon 400 chipset is our major concern. It proved a really powerful platform for the Windows smartphones in the past and is still utilized by many. But Microsoft's recent push of new apps and games within the Windows Store may finally raise performance issues on these kind of smartphones." SO PLEASE DONT COMMENT WITHOUT KNOWING. the review team also found these i have already mentioned. thanks.

  • i m using Nokia phones since 2004..i have seen nokia 1100 to lumia 920...it seems that u are a paid agent of Microsoft. what ever i said are damn true..show me a proof that it can take good pictures in low light. Show me that u can charge it fully in one hour..show me that it can browse in 2G or 2.5G...

  • Down android apps in this phone tell me any one

  • Friends don't go with the rumour about 640 XL it's a fantastic phone.Yes its not the Android OS but its not the bad choice at any cost.Camera is just great never find such types of camera under 15K.640 XL camera is unbeatable.Yes at night it suffers with noise,but over all it nice one provides the decent picks.

  • Don't spread the rummer about Microsoft Lumia I am also using Lumia device and there is no any such issue I ever got in my device.Lumia smartphones is one of the best device especially 730 and 640 & 640 XL is the great phone.Everything in this phone is just a perfect.

  • i am already using gmail on my android device.. I was looking forward to buy windows to run my outlook email..

  • i want to know any app that can playing FLV movies ... if you know kindly please help

  • yap..same here..another pain out of many

  • The list of cons are numerous. Even my Nokia X2 was better than lumia 640XL in many aspects. Didn't expect this shit out of Microsoft. Could buy much better Android phone with this price. Just waste of my valuable money. 1. Touch: need to try several times to pull down and up the Action panel. 2. Lagging while playing games (i.e. tample run). 3. Camera in low light is awful. 4. Needs high bandwidth for browsing where as android can browse in 2G. 5. No video call option in Viber. 6. Internal storage is low. User available only 3gb out of 8. 7. Facebook is not as comfortable and rich as Android phones. Many useful features are missing. The pros are the size and battery..that too takes 4 hours for full charging...LOL So please think twice before buying this phone. Go in details and take your time. Do not regret afterwords.

  • Your said this information is wrong 👎. They all features there on Mobile. First active your Gmail account. Then you made possible.

  • I saved my 16000 rupees by not buying this phone. It has worst email experience ever. I want to buy this phone but only after email services are full fledged like gmail on android. In ondows you canot add attachments while replying. You cannot farward email with attachmnt more thn 9 mb..lol..windows playing with users...give everything in email..i will buy it immidiately.

  • yup. mine's like that too.

  • 1.)Yes its possible to attach and send files or documents through gmail.You have to open gmail account in Internet Browser. 2.)To Send files to Andoird Do the following steps 1. turn on your "Internet Sharing" in settings 2. Your friend(Android phone user), should turn On their WiFi 3. Connect the WiFi into your phone's hotspot 4. Open the Shareit on both devices 5. Receive the files To Receive the Files from Android Do the Following steps 1. Turn your WiFi on 2. Both devices open shareit 3. On your Wifi , your's friend's hotspot will shows(if not shows, then your friend should select the applce mode) 4. Connect with your friend's hotspot 5. Then happily share the files 3.)Best feature us unlimited email storage in Windows phone.If ur using WiFi file via transfer you can use Shareit app ..it Works fine.With the Shareit app.. U can share movie with a speed of 2 mbps. 4.)File Maneger preloaded in all Windows phone ,Use "files" file manager app to manipulate(copy,paste..) all ur media files.. 5.)AFTER Windows 10 all Android apps will be available in Windows store.Windows 10 has a lot of potential and can revive the Microsoft market in India. You can't download more than 100mb file by using your mobile net. You have to use Wi-Fi

  • Dear ray. I think you never use and never see any lumia phone. Lumia phone have fole mng and have a option for attachment.

  • Gaurav , there are some of drawbacks / loopholes of windows OS , that a couple of my friends said about that . .. 1. - One of Major problem is there is no file manager also do not have apps. 2. U can't do google chat through gmail in lumia phones ... if u wanna do that , u need to have a 3rd party application s/w like nimbooz ... 3.

  • All Lumia Smartphones becmes new actually its the rebirth of Lumia devices after Windows 10 update in the month of November.

  • Does this phone has any updates???

  • The phone takes about 4 hours and a half to fully charge. Is this normal guys?

  • Snapshot Option Available in this Device??

  • There are lots of Smartphones in this mobile world.But very few are the actual player who actually perform in this world's of Mobile.In Android Motorola's phone is the unbeatable other than Moto you can depend over the Most dependable series Nexus the ultimate Android smartphone.Samsung Note series is very serious about their performance.Some Chinese giants Like Mi and OnePlus smartphone prove that it's clear vision in Android phone.Asus ZenPhone series is somewhat very capable in performance.All these companies are very serious about their Smartphones business.On the other hand Microsoft with the Windows OS slowly but trying to compete with the Android market yes its too difficult task for Windows to overtake the Android market.But the truth is that Microsoft try very hard and very very serious about the it's Lumina Smartphone.I personally feel Windows is very Optimized OS and something very great in this Windows OS ,and no need to invite other manufacturers like Lava ,Micromax to make Windows phone.Microsoft will make Lumia series with the perfection and I don't think the other manufacturers like take this Windows project seriously.Even most of the manucturer is not serious about their Android phone Geonee,Yureka,Yuphoria,Lenovo latest release smartphone.Even Samsung HTC & Sony is not concentrating on their mid range segments.If you wish to use Lumia Smartphone one thing is sure each set is build with the perfection and perform very well.And such thing is not happens with the Android phone there are many Android phone which have no perfection they just made and relese their Smartphones they don't care about their performance.Yes I can say that all most all Lumia Smartphones made with the perfection and perform very well in the actual world.And is the actual truth as well as the main advantage of Microsoft Lumia Smartphones Perfection along with the Performance.

  • Bro this phone is freezing frequently any way to recoverfrom this problem?

  • Its a very below par results overall, camera ram 8gb storage ppi all are below par. Only temporary curiosty of windows 10, Just two months old warranty date eleven months left, no buyer even put it on shop fr a week. When we buy now any Mobile. Just think of using fr life, than change every year. Maybe 2020 target if batteries pull along.

  • Is it safe to charge this phone with a samsung travel charger with 2A output. The charger that comes with the device have 0.750 mA? Thanks guys

  • Samsung's

  • Yes it was the news from the sources according to it Windows 10 will be the last OS of it's series but Microsoft will provide regular updated instead of releasing any further upgrade of Windows 10 version.They are just going to concentrate on update section and made Windows 10 more and more better.Have you update your laptop to Windows 10 I have updated to Windows 10 really Windows 10 is the great come back by Microsoft.We can expect same with the mobile version also.Don't worry Windows 10 is the perfect OS and will get the regular and timely update.

  • I have installed Skype in my new 640XL...but no video calling option found...please suggest

  • I purchased lumia 640XL few days before...when I downloaded some docs or pics from mail or site, after downloading not able to see where this files are stored and not able to find the downloaded file also...please suggest...

  • OLED Screen n 730 Lumia is much better just compare, with that pics all displays' are much focused than this 640XL. Mid range of LG Sammy Moto etc have much better resolution ppi or camera results. Carl zeiss lens is a marketing stunt, nothing brilliant. Ever without patent 13 Mp give same results.Lastly windows shud take out 10 immediately to save its reputation

  • Do you any confirmation that after windows 10 update on lumia 640 xl whatever updates will come will be available for lumia 640 XL? Or no more upgrades if any for lumia 640 xl?

  • All 640 XL preloaded Windows 8.1 2nd update.2nd update is improved update especially for camera and video player. This update also included Denim update.Now most of the Lumia series got Windows 8.1 2nd update including 730,830 ,1320 and 1520 Windows 10 will available only after 8.1 2nd update.Windows 10 will be the last update of Windows according to the sources and Windows will going to provide update only.Most probably Windows 10 will be the Last OS.And Windows will looking for the new Linux based OS may be it's Cyanogen OS but not sure it May be.

  • I bought Lumia 640xl now. Suggest me that which memory card is the best? 32 gb Samsung evo? Or sandisk?

  • Paru, mind ur complant not generalized manner, every phone has them, even S6 has even worse. Such go with the swing, too hot to hold, battery at least two days, camera just average. Its model name is mid range don't expect miracles.See what you pay 200$. But I agree no resale value, nor anything extra ordinary in windows. Ten is last lesson g with no upgrades to eleven no. Only patches say security updates. Hope to get it in Nov when 940xl launched. Chao!

  • I'm facing heat problem with 640 xl specially outdoor The screen and the back turn hot any solutions?

  • What do you mean by update 2? Yes, I know it will get windows 10. Are you talking about next update after windows 10 if ever launched?

  • Lumia 640 XL is the great phone its a mid range Flagships Smartphone by Microsoft.Under 15 K I will only suggest either to go for Microsoft Lumia 640 XL or All time favourite Motorola G series Moto G 3rd gen. And is the only best choice in the market.

  • hi i m a iphone user but now want 2 change my device and just ordered the lumia 640 dual ?is it gud or bad as compair to my iphone 5 ??

  • Windows phone most stylish, lumia 640 xl is a mid budget phone, most likely camera and updated os.

  • I brought this phone before 2 months. battery backup is less. camera quality is not good and it is showing problems now. I recommended tat don't buy this phone

  • Once again Microsoft proved that they give quality products to the world..I purchased a Lumia for the first time after a two year use android. Best battery Great camera No lagging Awesome graphics Ease to access Rich look Microsoft's trust We already purchased two Lumia phones in last 2 months from our family Will definitely recommend to more people

  • Lumia 640XL is a superior product 5.7" display gives more space for entertainment and gaming ~HD resolution 1280*720 is good you there is no pixelation ~13 MP rear camera with Carl Zeiss lens takes perfect pics, you don't need a bulky digital camera on Holiday ~3000 mAh battery = superb backup ~for selfie lover 5MP front is perfect ~1Gb Ram is enough for Windows phone , it even doesn't hangs when i open multiple heavy games together ~8 gb internal is low But when all Apps, downloads, pics & contents can be directly saved on SD card then you can use high capacity Memory card(Max.128Gb) ~Windows Phone 8.1 with update 2 has many rich features

  • I purchased this phone 10 days back... Can anyone tell me how can i get Utorrent ID and password? What type of ID has to be insert? Please help me i am unable to know about that

  • When I receive a call, the caller's name and/or phone number appears around 2-nd row of tiles; but when I call someone, the called person appears on first row of tiles. Thus, my cover with window does not let me see who's calling me (since this gets too low for the cover's window). Anyone care to suggest a setting to uniform this displaying ? (called person and calling person to appear on the same region of the screen)

  • did microsoft 640 xl is upgradable to 4g lte when they launch 640 xl lte?

  • good .but not supporting many apps .

  • 35 days after I went to same shop for accessories, saw same3 640xl left as I left them.even both gloosy one I opened,ad returned from matte black.let's see when window s 10 will be updated might be Nov, rest internals too primitive ad confused. Most of main apps always on phone memory, so a time comes when no space, have to uninstall apps. Cost of 32 gb is not much as from is to primitive too. Ms get up from your sleep, be generous in memory. 8 gb is as already occupied 60% by apps system what's is left bbs

  • Lumia 640 & 640 XL definitely going to be the best Smartphone and it will do exactly what iPhone 4S done for the Apple and Moto G done for the Motorola to establish the business in Mobile World.Really Microsoft genuinely done the Great job with Lumia 640 and 640 XL.Well done Microsoft.
