Customers are enthusiastic about the Microsoft Lumia 640's price, camera quality, and ease of use. Many also appreciate its battery life, screen size, and the inclusion of expandable storage. Positive feedback also highlights the phone's performance and its operating system. However, some users express disappointment with the limited app selection.
For the money this phone cannot be beat. I'm a selfish person, and never spend a lot on phones. First time Windows user, and very easy to setup. Gmail was easy to activate, as well as my contacts. Cortana is flawless, and works great with my cars Bluetooth. While driving, (handsfree) is very important. Cortana will say: you received a text from__, do you want to reply? Simply say yes, and your response. Cortana will read back response and ask permission to send. Internet Explorer is very fast with my wifi. While on the road I never have any problem with my 4G. The call quality is very good in suburban NJ, no dropped calls either. The speaker is very loud too. Microsoft has the apps that I need for basic use. I use HERE Drive for GPS, paired with Cortana. This works awesome, and very accurate. This does have a notifier when you are speeding that pings. Another must have app is CamScanner. This will enable you to take a picture of a document, and edit if needed. You can then email, and choose what type of document to send(pdf, jpeg, etc). A very handy app to have in my opinion. The screen clarity is great at 5 inches. Watching YouTube and browsing is very good. For the normal person, this phone will serve its purposes. **I did unlock this device and setup with T-Mobile. It took about 3 days for unlock code, easy to setup. I have been an Android user for many years. The Windows experience has been an enjoyable one so far.

This a my second 640 window phone b/c I lost the original one. Three days later I found the first. I like the phone much ever consider changing models. Great battery life, FM radio, strong wifi pickup and window 10 @ this price what's not to like. Think of it this way longer video uploads with window 10 Outlook compare to you cellphone carrier restrictions.
