SensorCore, pedometer, NFC, Miracast support, Decent 13 megapixel camera with Rich Capture features, 5 megapixel front facing camera, Large screen, Removable battery, Replaceable battery covers with multiple color options
Lite version of Glance Mode doesn't show as much info, Too large for one-handed usage, Only 8Gb of internal storage (you really need to buy a MicroSD card), No wireless charging covers available, Battery cover can get bent out of shape too easily,
The Lumia 640 XL has a great set of features for its $249 price tag. It's disappointing that the battery cover could get bent out of shape so easily though, and it's also disappointing that there is no Qi wireless charging capable battery cover availab...
Big, accurate IPS display, Camera takes detailed, rich photos, Good overall performance
Short battery life, Limited app selection
The $249 Microsoft Lumia 640 XL is a solid Windows phone with a lovely 5.7-inch display and a good rear camera, but we wish the battery lasted longer...

The Lumia 640 XL is, by and large, a great phone. It's attractive, well-made, and performs well for a $250 handset. I wish the screen had more pixels and I wish call quality was a bit better, but these aren't deal-breakers. Windows Phone runs perfectly on...
Decent camera quality, Fair amount of value with its $250 cost, Bright screen, Light weight considering its size
Not a strong performer with graphics processing, Speaker audio quality is strained
Windows Phones in general are in short supply, which means that we're more accepting of phablet-sized ones even more, especially when they're even rarer to find in the wild. Far from being a specs beast meant to tackle on the big names in space, the Micro...

Abstract: Less than a decade ago, miniaturization was still the go-to word in phone design. In a descent that started with the first ‘mobile' devices during the late 1960's, the evolution of the portable consumer telephone was towards ‘pocketability' sleekness; it...
I'm not sure what is going to happen with Windows Phone in the future given all of the recent changes in personnel, but according to ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley's recent interview with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella Microsoft does have plans to continue making pho...
LTE 4G, good cameras and a big screen for a low price
It's a midrange phone, don't expect top specs
The Microsoft Lumia 640 XL is a very likeable and solid phone at a reasonable price. If you're in the market for a big screen phone on a budget and are a fan of Windows Phone or are hankering to try that OS, it's a great introduction to the platform. Thou...
The Microsoft Lumia 640 XL LTE has a bright 5.7-inch screen, works on LTE networks, and has an impressive rear camera and long-lasting battery life
The 720p resolution makes for a lower pixel density than you may want. The processor is a little under-specced for power-users, and the plastic casing can't match the premium feel of some phones
It's no flagship, but the Lumia 640 XL LTE offers a solid big-screen experience at a budget price point that's hard to beat...
Full day battery life, 13 MP Carl Zeiss camera, Available in 3G, LTE, 3G Dual SIM or LTE Dual SIM versions, 1TB of free OneDrive storage with a year's free Office 365 subscription, 3,000mAh LiIon battery
Outofdate chipset, No secondary microphone, Only 3GB of internal storage available to the user, Performance not as good as competing Android phones
The best camera you can get at this price. Updated software brings cool features like Glance Screen, Kids Corner, and Apps Corner. Comes with oneyear subscription of Office 365 included
At 5.7inches, the 720p screen is a bit stretched. Daylight readability can be a significant problem. Microsoft has been cleaning up some preinstalled apps, and yet the Lumia 640 XL is still loaded with redundant bloatware
