Bottom Line
Packing cool Windows extras, a good camera and a reliable battery, the Microsoft Lumia 640 is one of the best-value phones in the market.
The Microsoft Lumia 640 LTE is a 4G Microsoft Windows smartphone that graced the shelves in April. 2015. Reviewers praised it for its impressive build quality and a decent rear camera. Users expressed their general satisfaction with the display, which given the phone’s price is very acceptable. Regarded by many as its strongest feature was the extra software features it comes bundled with, including free one-year subscription to Microsoft Office 365 Personal and free 1TB of online storage on OneDrive. The battery life was also praised as being significantly better than most other Windows smartphones. What weighed down the device was modest performance, relatively insufficient internal storage and a disappointing app-store experience.
