With Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL, people are prepared for anything — for work, at home and on the go. They can smoothly and quickly access important documents or run popular websites, apps and games thanks to the onboard 1 GB of memory and powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon processor featuring quad-core CPU running at 1.2GHz. People can also enjoy photos and videos on a crisp high-definition (HD) display — either 5 inches on Lumia 640 or 5.7 inches on Lumia 640 XL. The long lasting battery of up to 2500 mAh in Lumia 640 and 3000 mAh in Lumia 640 XL, people can power through the day with battery to spare. The 13MB camera with ZEISS optics on Lumia 640 XL and the 8MP camera on Lumia 640 captures rich photos even in low light, while the front-facing camera is ideal for Skype video calling, and Lumia Camera software right out of the box.
