So yeah, my Lumia 800 is now dead after it decided to take a dip in the sea.

Am now considering Lumia 640 XL, or is there any other recommendation for something similar?

I like the build quality, it feels very premium.
Camera is quite good but not as good as pureview.
Lumia 800 is wp7.8, if you switch to wp8.1 you will see a hell lot of improvements
If the price is ok for you I recommend you to buy it
*
yeah, hell lot of improvement, like screencap (since 7.8 don't have sweat.gif)

now ori Malaysia set only have 3g dual sim model. 4g dual sim version will be released through telcos sooner or later
there are 4 different variants all together, 3g single sim, 3g dual sim, 4g single sim & 4g dual sim. All 4 variants are identical. The only way to differentiate is read from the packaging box or put in sim card to test.

I saw one forumer selling around 700 something, not sure is ori or ap set

update: Directd is selling at 769 ori set
*
Ah I see. I do notice the four variants, it is just that I can't tell them apart sweat.gif
Oh, speaking of which, what are the differences between ori and AP set, and how to tell them apart icon_question.gif

now only got 3g dual sim, so you have to wait for some time until LTE version is launched by Microsoft Malaysia.
but during the launch of 3g dual sim version, they did mentioned about LTE version will be launched through telcos

If I have the luxury of waiting, I would, but as of now, my Lumia 800 decided to skinnydipped into the ocean. Have been of the grip for days already without handphone sweat.gif

Just browse through the store
I highly recommend you to set your location, languages to English (US) if you havent do so. So that you can access US store which has more apps and also get Cortana personal assistant.

if one changed location and languages to english (us), will it affect such things such as here drive and such?

no, it wont affect here drive. here drive detects your location through GPS and the offline map data you need to select your region manually.
Most ppl set region and language to US for the US store and Cortana
if you have Cortana, I suggest you to download this app for scanning QR code:

okay got it. it won't affect other things right? cortana seems awesome biggrin.gif

Need help here. My phone suddenly switches off and does not want to turn back on, so I pulled out the battery and put it back on to make sure it is okay. Turned back on okay, but then it stated that it could not detect my SD card.

This happen a while ago after I touch down in France. Is it anything related, or is there any other problem/s?

Using 640 XL btw
