Lumia 620 is old but it can still play asphalt 8 smoothly.
mas malaki yung batt ng 640 pero 1mp lang ang front cam. etong 540 5mp ang front pero mejo maliit ang batt. sabi sa nokia store hindi daw dadating sa pinas ang 640 kaya ang nabili ko yung 640xl. masyadong malaki sa kamay ko kaya balak ko tuloy bilhin tong 540. previous lumia phone ko 630 bitin naman ang screen pag nagtatype. ang maganda sa windows phone matagal malowbatt. ang downside kokonti ang apps sa store nila.
8k for a SD200 device? buti sana kung SD410 yan pwede ba. kaso SD200? gusto ko pa naman sanang itry Windows Phone. pero mukhang 636 pa rin ang best choice.
Even a sub 7k samsung phone has better specs than this windows phone. I can’t understand why they keep on pricing their products waaaay above the competition. I know that the OS is properly optimized but having less apps and some occasional app updates. Buti na lang if everyone is dying to get a windows phone, yun nga lang wala masyado tapos ang kapal pa nilang sumingil ng mahal. Good Luck Microsoft
by the way yugatech, can you please feature the Intel Compute Stick? make a review if possible, advise on where to buy and alternative to such.
Thanks :)
Here’s the pricing i was expecting and hoping for:
Lumia 540 – 5,990
Lumia 640 – 7,990
Lumia 640XL – 10,990
I’m just gonna laugh at Microsoft for trying.
i have a Lumia 630 with 1GB ram and it runs smooth in running apps.
oh? Lumia 630 is just 500mb RAM. But it was able to run Asphalt 8 and Six Guns smoothly.
i think you refer to the 636, not the 630 (512MB RAM)
pag windows phone ba ok na ang 1gb ram?
640 ang inaabangan ko. Mukhang malabo ng ilabas ang 640…
