Power-Packed: Lumia 635 Launches in U.S.

Mark your calendars: Starting this month, the powerful Lumia 635 — loaded with Windows Phone 8.1, Cortana, SensorCore technology and more — will be available in the United States for the first time on T-Mobile’s blazing fast 4G LTE network, offering an un-compromised smartphone  performance at an ultra-affordable price.

The successor to the Lumia 521, the best-selling Windows Phone on T-Mobile’s network, the Lumia 635 will be available for purchase for $0 down, $7 per month for 24 months. It will be sold starting July 5 via the Home Shopping Network and online at T-Mobile.com starting July 9. On July 16, the feature-rich yet inexpensive smartphone in white can be found in T-Mobile retail stores, and on July 18, in select MetroPCS stores.

“We are thrilled to partner with T-Mobile to bring the Nokia Lumia 635 to the U.S. market and to T-Mobile customers for the first time,” said Matt Rothschild, head of North America sales, Microsoft mobile devices. “With high-end features, thousands of apps available through the Windows Phone Store plus the latest Windows Phone 8.1 experience and Cortana, the Lumia 635 is undoubtedly the best affordable smartphone available today.”

A smartphone experience personalized for you
The Lumia 635 provides a digital experience customized just for you. You’ll have the latest and greatest features with Windows Phone 8.1, including Cortana. As your new digital personal assistant, she will help keep track of appointments, maneuver you around traffic jams, and if you’re in an important meeting, even tell others that you’re too busy to chat at the moment.

With its 4.5” LCD screen and speedy quad-core Snapdragon processor, the Lumia 635 offers a beautiful display to watch videos and play games with no pauses or hiccups. And its SensorCore technology, which monitors your steps, movements, routes and places, may make the Lumia 635 your all-in-one fitness tracker.
