  • Is the Lumia 640 XL dual SIM?

  • 1GB RAM? Is that enough for Windows phones? I guess these are budget phones.

      Jeez, 1GB of RAM is like 2010 specs!

        1gb is enough for for windows phones like it is enough for iphone 6s. they are a lot faster and more optimised than android.

      WP uses less RAM, and Android try to use as much RAM as possible (it's just a different approach).
      I will mention this though, Windows Phone limit what runs on the background a lot more than Android, hence uses less resources overall.

      In my opinion, WP runs fine on 1GB RAM. Many aspects has been tailored for 1GB RAM, whether that is good or bad really depends on how you see it. You can easily call it a limited OS or an optimised OS (it's mixture of both IMO). More RAM would probably be nicer, Windows 10 Mobile is going towards 1GB RAM as a minimum spec (looking at Lumia 640 and other low spec Lumias that's coming out).

    • Yes 1gb is fine on windows phone with 720p screen. You don't need 2gb until you get the highest resolution phones like the 1520 or 930. My concern with these phones is the s400 SoC they use.

    I have a Nokia Lumia 1320 coming from all the big name android phones.And yes 1 gig ram is enough for windows phone it runs as quick as android with extra ram nobody utilises there power in there chips better than windows.

  • Hi

    I am new to TVs is the 50inch considered good value? Main use would be just for watching tele and the occasional DVD. I hate input lag.

    • +2

      Yes good value for 2015 model, Will be fine for normal use but if your a gamer you will want a 100hz TV

      • Thanks Trent, would action movies on blu ray have an issue with only being 50hz?

        • Well I have a hell old Samsung 40" 50hz and it plays movies fine :)

  • how crap are those TVs for gaming exactly? :) Its not like we ever do 1st person shooter. just Fifa and things like little big planet

    Also I went to windows from from android and there are more things that I like than things that I miss. The battery life on my 735 is super.

    • +1

      They won't be crap for gaming just some people like 100hz for gaming, personally a 50hz works fine for me

  • Too bad I ain dual sim, I am waiting for dual sim version to be at the 250 less price shipped

    • You may have to import it. Dual-sim 640 is being sold in China for a bit over $200.

      • I am aware of that, it is better to wait til win 10 lands first

  • Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 seems to be much better.

    • sure, by sending back user details to their servers for "reference purpose".

      • There is no user detail security at this age. They are honest to tell you that again.

        • No user detail security at this age ? so you know my detail already ? cheers ~~

        • @dlovep: It's the matter of want to or not but not able to or not…

        • @hotwinter: seems like when using that phone it's in case of "Want to and Able to"
