MS LUMIA 640 XL LTE BLACK SIMFREE

Je pense qu'il n'est pas neuf car les écouteurs sont absents et la batterie enveloppée dans un sachet Samsung !
De plus le chargeur est aux normes secteur Anglaises.
J'ai déjà eu un 640 (mais non XL) donc je connais mon sujet.

Ce commentaire est destiné plutôt envers le vendeur qui n'a pas hésité à vendre un produit obsolète et qui n'a pas voulu prendre en charge le problème. En effet, il m'a conseillé de me tourner vers Windows alors qu'il s'est pertinemment que cela ne sert à rien puisque, Microsoft a abandonné son système d'exploitation Windows Phone 8.1 le 11 juillet 2017. La période de prise en charge du système par Microsoft est terminée et le système est donc définitivement abandonné.
Mais, je suppose qu'il faut écouler son stock et faire sa fortune au détriment des autres.

aujourd'hui j'acheterais un android ou autre; suivant les moyens?

Beware of Seller PhoneTekNation

Commenté au Canada le 29 octobre 2022

I would not recommend anyone to buy from this third party seller. The phone that is supposed to be in very good condition is defective. The phone keeps dropping the cell signal - it drops and connects over and over.

According to the seller the phone can be returned but, "this cant be repaid as we are a hazmat seller again as per your terms and condtions". So why doesn't this seller state that they do not do refunds? Also state the phone is being shipped from China.

I guess the phone can be returned for them to sell it again.

Cost effective fully featured smart phone

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 27 novembre 2015

This phone represents excellent value for money. If you can get past it not being either Android or iOS then it is just as good as any generally higher priced competitor.

The phone itself feels well made and solid with a nice bright and legible screen. Fair enough it is made out of plastic but it is well constructed - there are no flimsy thin plastic covers that snap when you try to prise them off.

For most tasks (see below), it is nice and responsive and I have not had any slow-downs or bizarre behaviours.

The camera on the phone is generally excellent - I am no David Bailey (by any stretch of the imagination) but I do predominately use my phone to take photos. In the past I have used iPhones and generally used that as my bench-mark for comparing other phone's cameras. I think for my purposes the camera in this thing is just as good, certainly no worse for most tasks. This camera does not have the 120fps slo-mo of the iPhones or the OIS for the S editions but so what? This phone is practically a quarter of the price (but certainly not a quarter of the quality). My only negative about the camera is it is not fast. It is not slow by any means but it is not suited for those super quick spur of the moment "gotta catch that" types of moments. You cannot simply press the button and quickly snap a series of sub-second images. There are extra "lens" that provide a rapid burst mode but those require you to deliberately go in and select them (i.e. "now I will exit the regular camera app and active the burst mode app") which all takes time and as such is pointless if you're trying to quickly catch that wonderful spontaneous moment. The burst mode apps also don't simply store a series of individual photos into your photo album they store the images in a proprietary (single file) format and then you have at some later point go in and select which image(s) you wish to keep from the burst action. Again that makes burst mode a bit of a faff. The other aspect of camera slowness is around "HDR" mode photos. As I say it takes some nice quality photos but if you take 3 or 4 HDR shots in a row the camera app stops responding for a good few seconds as it "processes" the images. If you are taking a single HDR shot that it does not cause any issues, the camera app is immediately available for more (non HDR) photos. Partly for this reason and the fact the camera just takes nice shots I do not bother too much with HDR mode (or Rich Capture as MS calls it).

Having said all that, I am not deducting any stars. I do not mind really, the camera apps provides other nice customisable features (e.g. shutter speed control) and generally produces such nice photos that I have accepted that I might not be able to capture those spontaneous moments.

One of the best things about this phone is the battery. Not only is it replaceable it also lasts. With reasonable realistic usage (e-mail, photos, web browsing even short Sat-nav usage) I get 2 days between charges (2 days as in 48 hours, not these "marketing" days which are only 18 hours long).I know other phones claim to last "days" but when you look into the claims they are either "short" days or you are only interacting with the phone once or twice a day. It is so refreshing to have a device that can genuinely last.

In summary I am pleased with this phone and would recommend it.

solid piece of kit...

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 23 octobre 2015

Excellent phone. In particular, the operating system seems so much simpler and somehow, more 'grown up' than the previous Android phones I have owned. The apps, whilst not as comprehensive as androids, seem to be more than adequate, and perhaps because they are vetted first, tend not to come with the unwanted malware which makes Android phones flakier and flakier over time.
Added to that, the camera is little short of fantastic and the battery life easily better than anything I have owned previously.
A very good, very solid buy!

BEWARE !!

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 16 décembre 2015

this is a LOCKED version of the 640 xl...mine came branded by Vodafone and as soon as I switched it on asked for the unblocking code, which I didn't have because I use a different carrier. I was deceived by the description saying "sim free", but that doesn't mean unlocked, therefore I had to return my device straight away.
Make sure you only get the ones that say UNLOCKED.

Furthermore, make sure your parcel isn't carried by Hermes Parcels, otherwise you're screwed: they're extremely unreliable, and Amazon should ditch them all together. Just take a peak at their reviews on Google...

The phone itself is great...I only used it a few minutes before putting it back into its box and return it, but looks pretty snappy and the screen, in spite of the 259 ppi, looks good, sharp and bright. Honestly I couldn't notice much difference from the retina display of my Iphone 4S, and that was my main concern. I can't stand pixelated screens (I know I'm spoiled!!)

Last but not least, this is NOT the DUAL SIM version: the one I got only came with one SIM card slot so, again, make sure the description spells out clearly DUAL SIM. Initially I thought all the 640 xl would come dual sim by default but that's not the case, so was my mistake.
I hope it helps....

Really pleased

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 18 novembre 2015

I am so happy with this phone that I wonder why so many people go for flagships (although I will probably get the 950xl when it drops in price). I have had 4 phones in the past 1.5 yrs, the HTC one Max+, nokia lumia 1520, note 3 and nokia930, however, I hands down have to say this phone is the best value for money and has everything I want. Although I loved being able to write on the note, it became tedious erasing all the mis-interpreted text, the HTC was beautiful and large but again it was android, the 1520 was a thing of beauty, so pleasing to the eye that i'd coveted it for so long, when i finally got it, i was too scared to use it, however, unfortunately it had a faulty screen and got returned, and I have just decided to get rid of the 930 because basically 5" is too small for me!

The 640xl is big, but not uncomfortable, i am female and don't have particularly huge hands. I bought the black version and put a bright orange case on it, the case is a little slippery but for the price to replace this phone, I'm not anxious about it. The screen is big and clear, the colours are better than on my lumia 930 and preferred to the over saturated colours on the Samsung, the text can be a little blurry but I have read books comfortably on my reading app. The camera is pretty good as well, the thing with the 930 is that the glass screen seemed pretty thick and that somehow felt like an impediment to the faithful rendering of photographs, I don't feel like that with the 640xl and as long as you aren't expecting professional type photographs from your mobile, I think anyone would be more than happy with this phone! I have had a few issues with transferring music, but then I had the Amazon music app on android which doesn't seem to be available, this brings me to my biggest issue with Windows phone, why aren't big companies developing apps for this os, please don't get me wrong, there are plenty of useful apps, (how many does an individual need?!), I.e the major banks are in the Windows app store, I'm not a huge gamer but the games I have run well and there seem to be loads in the store so I don't understand why people moan about the lack of apps, but Amazon hasn't updated the reading app since Windows 7, and I do blame Amazon! That's fine, I can just buy music from the windows store and I don't need to worry because it will always be on my computer in an easy to access format should I want to transfer it, and anyway, the windows 10 for mobile rumours indicate that I may be able to use my apps across platforms.

I haven't experienced any other issues, in fact, it's better than the 930 IMO, thanks to the glance screen and the amazing battery life, I'm really v happy with it, but then I've never wanted an iPhone and don't really understand why anyone would want to spend so much money when they can get a 640xl for a so much less, and no one will want to steal it, that's a bonus btw!

I looked at online reviews before buying this and was very impressed with what the reviewers had to say and I don't regret buying it, I have sold both the note 3 and lumia 930 to finance the purchase of this and still have enough money left over for the festive season, can't go wrong!
