Just had a confirmation with Microsoft Malaysia GM that they are working a plan to bring the 640XL LTE to Malaysia

Though I don't have any info on the sim version

Wow that is good but i guess MS have not caught up with the supply chain of Apple. And the logic of it.

Confirmed, one sim is 2G only.

You can choose which sim slot gets the LTE.

Oh i see so not 2 sim also LTE ? This applies to the 640 LTE dual sim right ?

LTE and 33G are the same = slow. Unless you stay near to the transmission tower.

i have ip6+ and all the while on LTE it is a lot faster, does not apply to Lumia ?

And i plan to use the Lumia as a hotspot for LTE.

Now i wonder should i get the LTE or the XL

What he meant was you can choose 2 setting, sim 1 LTE/sim 2 GSM or sim 1 GSM/sim 2 LTE. But you cannot have sim 1 LTE and sim 2 LTE active at the same time. Only 1 sim can be LTE at a time.

OK thanks for the information, will have to try it out to see how it works i guess

Just go to outskirt areas and test it out.
Speed test are not accurate, just download a BD quality video and see how slow it goes whistling.gif

Good point but i use it mostly in Klang Valley, Maxis has good LTE coverage here. However if 3G speed is also good perhaps i will opt for the 640 XL

Would it be better if i get the regular LTE or the XL 3G ? this is my back up device and i use it for hotspot to my Mac. i have a Maxis broadband data sim and a Maxis voice with data sim. For the Lumia

iP6 has another primary sim voice with data.

Well, I'm only using Screamyx for my primary data plan. When I'm out, I don't want to stress my eyes. I read newspapers when I'm outside.
