The 640 XL is the third Lumia phablet we've put to the test, and much like its predecessors it performs ably, distilling things down to the essentials for mid-range users.
PROS
Big and bright screen; Surprisingly strong processor and camera setup
CONS
Ill-placed side buttons; Slightly flimsy back cover
VERDICT
All in all, the 640 XL is a solid offering within the phablet arena. While there may be some mid-range devices that provide better specs, the 640 XL does not short change it users in any regard, especially at the R3 200 price point it carries.
