might as well wait for reviews on lumia 630. if the 512mb is good, might as well get it due to bigger screen size plus clear black display brows.gif

going back to nokia because of its awesome camera. once owned c6-01, although fixed focus but the 8mp camera just nice plus 720p video recording.

Kinda disappointed with this model. Only worth it if the pricing is less than RM550.

- 512MB RAM
- No front camera
- No LED flash (useful as flashlight)
- <2000mA with 4.5" IPS

Please check if it has illumined key light (search, home and back keys).

I see. I guess this is the first model without the dedicated button. Is there a dedicated camera button for 630?

Dont go with anything less than 1GB RAM. It's the only thing hindering my L720 to be the perfect smartphone imo.

Doesn't support a few apps and crashes when loading too many things at once (in IE and browser-related apps like Baconit)

According to this article, It appears that the L630 doesn't have a "true ClearBlack display" eventhough it's branded with CBD. Instead it uses a 'sunglasses'-like 'lamination' rather than a full polarizer set which have been included in other CBD-equipped device.

What's your take on this?

yeah, I thought so.. My old (late) L 900 also got no lagging issues with it's 512 MB RAM.. The problem only occur when we use other apps, it takes time to load LINE apps.. sweat.gif

Though, still thinking to buy L630 to replace my cracked L900 hmm.gif

Better you buy something much better like L925 since L630 doesn't seem to be much of an upgrade from L900.
I used to own a L620 and now a L925 and it is a much better experience overall with the L925

Been using Lumia 630 for a week now.
Bought it for my mum, but using it first before passing it over.

Coming from Android base (GNex user), Lumia 630 really impressed me.
WP8.1 is very nice to use.

For apps side, since I don't game on mobile, I feel is sufficient for normal user. Necessity apps such as FB and whatsapp are there so no biggie in migrating over.

Just missing a few local apps like GSC, lelong etc.


Looking forward for L830 for better camera and front facing cam wink.gif

Bought the L630 as a secondary phone. It's not bad, but wish it had a front camera. Hard to take selfies using the back camera. Performance wise no problem so far.
