Why the Lumia 640 XL?
Why would the Lumia 640 XL make a great phone for you? Let’s take a look.
The new smartphone has a 5.7-inch ClearBlack display with sunlight readability. That means its screen is large enough to watch movies, Skype with friends, and play graphic-intensive games such as MineCraft–yet small enough to comfortably hold in one hand.
The phone comes loaded with the Windows Phone 8.1 operating system with Lumia Denim and features such as the full Office suite, including Word and Excel, making the Lumia 640 XL a great phone for work as well as play.
You’ll also love taking photos and video with the Lumia 640 XL. It comes equipped with a 13-megapixel HD rear camera with ZEISS optics and a front-facing 5-megapixel HD wide-angle camera. Learn more about the smartphone’s imaging technology and how to take fantastic photos here.
Other Lumia 640 XL specs you should know about include a speedy 1Ghz quad-core Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 400 processor, a replaceable 3000 mAh battery, and features such as one-swipe Action Center, Live Folders and Glance Screen.
Of course, you’ll have access to Cortana. Your personal digital assistant can help you with everything from reminding you to get an anniversary gift for your girlfriend to showing you what films are playing at your local movie theater.
The Lumia 640 XL comes with 8GB of internal memory, which you can expand up to 128GB via a MicroSD card.
