Abstract: The Microsoft Lumia 640 XL is the big brother of the Lumia 640 with almost an inch more screen. The 5.7 inch HD display is just about as big as they come and has a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. ClearBlack technology is built in to ensure perfect readab...
Abstract: Although we didn't get a new flagship Lumia 940 , Microsoft did announce two new Lumia Windows Phone smartphones at MWC 2015 which are Windows 10 ready. Here's our Microsoft Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL hands-on review from Barcelona. Also see: Best W...
Large punchy screen great for video, Neat Glance screen, Good battery life
It's a phone behemoth, Windows doesn't exploit screen size
The Lumia 640 XL suggests Microsoft is trying to retain its reputation for being a company that offers decent phones outside of the very top-end models. Making a good £500 phone is one thing, but pulling the same trick off at £180 is quite another. While...

Great battery life, Solid all-round camera, Slick overall performance
Too big to use in one hand, Windows Store content lags behind rivals, Get better value for money elsewhere
I'm a fan of the updated Windows OS, it's slick, fast and stable and I feel that the 640 XL's large 5.7-inch screen is a great showcase for it. As a low-end device, it offers a strong feature set that will tempt people who were willing to spend a bit mor...
Abstract: In the first part of this series, I looked at the Windows Phone experience vs the Android software experience. In this part, I'm taking a look at what hardware one can get for under £160 and lower. I had Gearbest provide me with a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 for...
Microsoft dropped some extras with the Lumia 640 XL LTE. In particular, I'm not thrilled with the lack of a physical camera button. Forcing users to buy a separate cover to get wireless charging isn't awesome either. Both complaints are the result of owni...
