Microsoft adds Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL to its Indian inventory

Lakshmi Rajan — Tue, 07 Apr 2015 18:45:20 +0000

I lost count of Lumia models and here are two more to join the list. Launched during the WMC earlier this year, both the devices are launched today and will go on sale exclusively on Flipkart from today. The Lumia 640 & 640 XL comes at a best buy price of Rs 11999 & Rs 15799 respectively. The Lumia 640 has a 5 inch HD screen with resolution of 720p resolution and strengthened with Corning Gorilla glass. Powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 (MSM8926), 1.2 GHz quad-core processor, the phone gets a 1 GB RAM and 8 GB internal storage, with an option to expand via microSD card. It also houses a 8MP front camera capable of shooting video at 1080p and a front camera of 1MP for video calls. The phone houses battery of 2500mAh. XL obviously implies big size and the Lumia 640 XL is a bigger version of 640 but with a better specs and even the build. The matte finish of the XL feels much better than the glossy rear of the 640. For those who love bigger screen, the Lumia XL’s 5.7-inch HD screen with a resolution of 720p should be a good news. Powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor clocked at 1.2GHz, there is a 1GB of RAM and 8GB of ROM, with a provision for external memory card. The camera set up includes a 13MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera for selfies. A 3000mAh battery is a good addition. Both the devices are available in white, black, cyan orange and green. We will come up with our reviews soon. Watch the space. ]]>
