Microsoft Lumia 640 XL
Christian Post Report – Samsung and HTC both made a big splash at the Barcelona Mobile World Congress early this month when both companies unveiled their new flagship phones, but Lenovo and Microsoft also had something new to offer as they both launched supersized devices at affordable prices.
Microsoft introduced its Lumia 640 XL, which is a bigger version of the 5-inch Microsoft Lumia 640 with an upgraded camera and slightly larger battery. Meanwhile, Lenovo announced its latest device, the A7000, a 5.5-inch phone that will cost you less than $200.
Here, we compare the two devices:
Design:
The Lumia 640 XL has a polycarbonate material, and the phone has rounded corners. The handset measures 6.22 x 3.21 x 0.35 inches and weighs a hefty 6.03 ounces. The phone comes in a variety of colors, such as matte black, white, blue, and glossy orange.
The A7000 has the same shape as the Microsoft phone as it has the same gently curved corners. The handset measures 6.01 x 3.00 x 0.31 inches and is a lot lighter than the Lumia 640 XL at only 4.94 ounces. Color variety is limited to black and white.
Features:
The Lenovo phone has a 5.5-inch screen, while the Microsoft handset has a 5.7-inch display. The phones have the same resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, but the Lumia 640 XL is the only one that’s scratch resistant as it has a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 3 to protect it.
The Microsoft device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor and runs on Windows Phone 8.1, while the Lenovo phone has a MediaTek octa-core chip set and runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop with Vibe UI.
Both devices come with 8GB internal memory, but the Lumia 640 XL’s internal storage can be expanded up to 128GB, while the Lenovo A7000’s memory can only be expanded up to 32GB.
Both phones have a 5GB front-facing camera, but the Microsoft device edges out the competition with its 13GB rear-facing shooter. The Lenovo phone has an 8MP rear camera.
Price:
Off contract, the Lenovo A7000 will cost $169 when it goes on sale this month, while the Microsoft Lumia 640 XL is expected to cost $240 when it goes on sale in April.
