Microsoft Lumia 640 Xl

The Microsoft Lumia 640 and its larger sibling, the Lumia 640 XL have been with us for a little while now and are being picked up by more new owners every day.

Fans of large screen Windows Phones haven't exactly been spoiled in the past. There was the Lumia 1320 and Lumia 1520, launched in October 2013 to the world at the final Nokia World event in Abu Dhabi. But that was a long time ago and there hasn't been a lot to speak of since.

The Lumia 640 isn't the only new Windows Phone Microsoft is putting to market right now. It has a bigger brother in the Lumia 640 XL.

Microsoft today announced the Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL in the UK, with prices kicking off at just £99.99. The former is available today while the Lumia 640 XL is set to arrive later this month.
