Still not satisfied with ur reviews......how about attaching more than one document to your email,.....handling & saving pdf files offline without signing up to pdf online, attaching files without going through hassles of a cloud storage isssh........nokia had some lapses in that aspect......dunno if Microsoft worked on dat aspect of d new generation lumia series......

Naaahhh, that's not true you can send more than 1 file as an email attachment, & you can do it without ever going to one drive too . for creating PDFs on phone , you can use 3rd party apps for that .
You can see the screen shot I have more that one file as an attachment ready to be sent using the native mail system on my phone.

gidjah:
so i can download it on my Lumia 710(7.5windos)Abi?

Ooups ! sorry dear, that would not be possible , Cortana is only available for phones running at least windows phone 8, your current phone nokia lumia 710, can not be updated to windows phone 8, let alone 8.1, due to the hardware capabilities , the best update you can do is from windows phone 7 which your phone came with , to windows phone 7.8, & windows phone 7.8 OS does not come with Cortana.
sorry if you must use cortana , you must upgrade your phone to a Lumia that can run the windows phone 8.1 OS, & your Nokia lumia 710, is not among such smartphones.

[quote author=martineverest post=37450846][/quote]yeah you right, low PPI ..but like we said , its a mid ranger.
sorry about your Phone

martineverest:
yeah,

Interesting, Nice phone though , its a steal

martineverest:
the price have gone higher...57k in most places

Are you serious ? wow!. ..ok if you say so

[b]CAMERA

One of the first things people of today do when they get their hands on a new phone is to try out the camera. The handset sports a Carl Zeiss lens on the center of its back. Inside is a 13-megapixel sensor, and the aperture is rated at f/2.0. 13 mega pixels is a whole lot to take a nice picture, especially if you know what you are doing, it also comes with auto focus but not with Xenon Flash Yes! But hey Led Flash is not bad. The 640 XL does not boast the best camera software on a phone ever, but it comes with intriguing features like burst mode, HDR capabilities, and something called Dynamic Flash. This feature captures images automatically both with and without flash, giving you the power to decide the balance between the two shots afterwards. It also comes with the Lumia story teller app, where u watch your pictures taken roll by with background music & offcouse my favorite!... living Images... Where you can watch those pictures you have taken, come back to life, allowing you to experience the moment again & again. Living images is a nice one from Microsoft, am yet to see anyone who came across it & didn’t love it, I usually use it to woo the ladies & brag when ever I meet people using other phone types.

[b]Yeah yeah, I agree there are not so much apps in the Microsoft mobile store when compared with Android, Iphone or BB apps store, but it all depends on individual preference, some of us are ok with whats there, while some of us are not, but I bet you most of your major apps (FB, BBM, Instagram, twitter, dropbox, filemanager, etc) you use in your Android/Iphone & BBM are very much available in the Microsoft phone/mobile store.
And yes I know Android phones are very much customizable when compared to windows phone, but that’s partly because the Android OS is a much more open OS, allowing for more tweaks here & there. But not to worry, with certain apps like Tile Art, Blur, Circle Tilepark etc. you can still make your home screen look cool, like some I do have here.
With the release of Windows Mobile 10 in a few months’ time, Microsoft has promised more improvement & excitement for windows phone users, & they have also promised the Lumia 640 series would be among the first Lumia phones to receive the new OS when due (October), let’s just hope that they keep to their words.

gidjah:
1 GB ram too poor though,but that cortana, is it an app,can I get it on my 710version pls?

yeah Cortana is a Microsoft owned app, it is available for all phones running windows 8 & above operating software,.....& surprisingly, in a bid to get the android & IOS fans , Microsoft has / is intending to release Cortana to Android & Apple

sats:
50k for 1g ram, 8gb storage? now thats a rip off

Yeah you may be right,..but you forgot to add the 5.7inch display, 1.2 ghz quad snap dragron 400 processor, 13mega pizel back camera with with auto focus & led flash, 5 mp HD front camera for good selfies, a 3000mAh battery capacity & free office 365 for a year.
Now that's not a bad deal if you ask me

[b]OPERATING SYSTEM

The Lumia 640 XL dual sim ships with Windows phone 8.1 with Lumia Denim. I never really liked the Windows phone 7 OS, it was a bit chunky & complex & slow (certain devices), when compared to the old Windows mobile 5, 6, & 6.5 OS. Microsoft somehow improved on that with the Windows phone 8. Its fast, fluid & light weight with better social media integration, especially with the “people app tool”, where it brings all your social media activity all on one platform, as long as you are signed in off course. Let’s not forget the “live tiles”, I love it! See the different apps tiles change with new information in real time, lovely! It adds to the beauty of the OS. But I must warn you, to enjoy this, you must be constantly hooked up to the internet either through wifi or a constant running mobile internet data plan. Less I forget, there is also “Cortana”, your very own personal digital assistant, she easily integrates herself into your calendar & agenda, she studies your habits including movements (where you go/visit), & she gathers all these information analyze them & provide you with informed recommendations, all theses Cortana can achieve with just a voice prompt, she can remind you to buy petrol for your generator or pick up drinking water just before you get home. Yes Cortana is that good!

StarboyMichael:
Nice review, how much is this phone now

Thanks . Am sure within 42K - 46K range one could pick it up now . like I said I got mine for 50K, back in May

[b]PROCESSOR

It comes with the Qualcomm snapdragon 400 processor, with quad core & clock rate of 1200MHz. yes it’s not the snapdragon 800 that ships with the 1520, but it can also handle or do some heavy lifting, especially with the fact that windows 8 OS is light & as such doesn’t really need a beast to carry it. The Snapdragon 400 processor brings high end user experience to mid-high range smartphones & tablets such as 4GLTE support, Video capture & play back at 1080p HD & high resolution photos with up to 13.5mega pixels. It’s the same processor that powers the Lumia 1320, HTC one Remix, LG G3 Vigor, HTC Desire 610 & Alcatel Onetourch.
I am not a mobile gamer, I prefer gaming on PC or console, but I did try City Racing & Temple Runner on this device & it was more than smooth, unless off course you’re a hard core mobile gamer. I also tried to work on some word & PowerPoint documents while also browsing on the native browser (Internet explorer 11) & there were no lags or freezing, neither did it get hot.
[/b]

[b]Lumia 640 XL has a screen resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. That takes the PPI sharpness down to 259, but it's not a bad screen to look at: like most Lumia displays I've seen, the colors are bright and engaging and everything on the interface looks sharp enough. It also comes with Cornin gorilla glass 3, yes Gorilla glass 3! I have been using this phone for more than 3 months, & I must confess I can see a few scratches though, even though it has never dropped & I have been also very careful with handling.
One thing I find not so good about this phone, is the fact that even with the size of the phone, Microsoft did not include a hard button for the camera like in the 920, 925, 1020, 930, 1520 etc, all you get are the power button at the middle & the volume buttons above that. It’s so annoying, that I have to tap the screen when taking shots.
But hey with a battery capacity of 3000mAh, that’s enough juice to take you through a day & maybe half with mild browsing, chatting/social networking etc. as long as none of your lines is a hot line.

[b][b]APPERANCE/DESIGN/WEIGHT

What you find in the box
• Microsoft Lumia 640XL dual sim,
• Product user guide,
• Battery,
• Charger & headset.
Microsoft decided to go with a cuboid box much thinner than the previous box of the Lumia 920 & 1520, probably to improve packing, depending on how you want to pack it. As you slide/pull open the box, behold appears the Lumia 640XL, with a height of 157.9mm, width: 81.5mm, thickness: 9mm & weighing 171g.
I discovered the phone was much lighter in the hands than I thought (very light), & the round edges make it comfortable to hold with one hand too.
Microsoft maintains the plastic casing on the Lumia line even with this phone. The Phone chassis with its 5.7inches screen, seats in a removable/excheagble plastic cover. The back pops off, so you can replace the battery (Yes replaceable battery), add the SIMs and slot in a microSD if you want to. It's a sign of the device's robustness, this is not a phone that's going to mind a scratch, the replaceable cover has a very nice coarse feel to the palm due to the matte finish, rather than a glossy finish. Glossy finish are nice to the eyes, but are not nice for handling, leaving finger prints all around & risk of slipping from your hands too. The excheagble cover comes in blue, white, black & orange colors, the orange colors look good, it makes the phone very catchy to the eyes, ladies would love that color.
I noticed here Microsoft decide to go with a replaceable battery (3000mAh) too, not what we are used to on the lumia line (920, 1520, 930, etc.)
From the removable back to the volume and power buttons, the Lumia 640 XL has a feeling of cheapness, but it's not quite as negative as that sounds. It's solidly put together, despite the low-grade materials, and no doubt some users will enjoy having a phone that can get bashed about a bit. It’s also distinctly Lumia, with a raised camera lens module, edges that are curved and rounded, and a choice of colors for the back casing. As usual, the 3.5mm headphone jack sits atop the device, while the microUSB connector port is positioned underneath. The power and volume buttons sit on the right, with the power button lowest, as is the norm for Lumias.

Dont mistake Tithe with offering. You can give any amount to God. Its called will-offering. But Tithe is a system by God and is a fixed to 10%. You must keep these 2 systems ordained by God.


Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom
tribute is due ; custom to whom custom; fear to
whom fear; honour to whom honour.' Romans 13.7

Tithe, offering, free will,..its all Semantics ...modern day preachers keep twisting the minds of modern day Christians that have refused to use their brains .., even with all that Education, too bad. Rather than preach peace & kindness , what will all your tithe & offering to your pastor be , if you don't show kindness to your gate man or househelp , let alone the needy .

He has the keys to the gates of hell. So Yes, He'll come and see you there probably, and while you beg for a drop of water he reminds you of your madness on earth.

Nobody is going to hell,.....God loves us

Enki40:
Well, Stephanie and that Atheist didn't need to go that far to realize that the Biblical God was a liar, murderer and the bringer of all evil that befalls man today. It's very clear in the first book of the Bible. He was the first person who lied in the bible. He told Adam that the day he eats the fruit, he would die. But the Devil they claimed is evil told the truth. He simply said, God didn't want you to eat the fruit because if you do, you will be like him; knowing good and evil. Anyway, the devil made Eve eat the fruit and she subsequently offered it to Adam. So did any of them die? Nope. Rather, they were knowledgeable. So, Christian fanatics could say all they wish, twist and condemn. But the truth still remains, the devil told the truth. But I want to point out that the fruit used here is totally symbolic. Also, the devil would have made humans immortal, but that plan didn't come to fruition. Genesis 3:23...And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
This is just an excerpt for you to ponder upon. Ask yourself, why didn't God want us to be knowledgeable and immortal. But the devil wanted that for us, yet he was viallianized and tagged "evil"
Please note that I'm not an Atheist, neither am I an adherent of any established or organized religion.

3 origins for you! As a christian , it is things like this that has turned me into a religious critic! most things in the bible or in Christianity makes no sense

This is a wonderful one from johnydon . . .

As RobinHez has said, pluto is being reevaluated, also, ceres is an asteroid as well.

I am indeed very sure that we will find more of these little planets. I heard the majority of them are littered with mineral resources.

that is very possible, imagine a planet composed mainly of Carbon, we would be finding in it a whole lot of Diamonds , diamonds even as large as a salon car cannot be ruled out , or a planet with as atmosphere of Hydrocarbon, we could have liquid methane as rain , the possibilities are limitless
