The Nokia Lumia 630 budget Windows Phone handset is now on sale in the UK.
Going on sale for just £89.95, the Lumia 630 is the most affordable Lumia handset to date and comes in a range of bright colours including orange, green and yellow.
The Lumia 630 will be available from Carphone Warehouse, EE, O2, Tesco and Amazon from today.
“The Nokia Lumia 630 offers great apps and high end technology, which all run seamlessly under the beautiful Windows Phone 8.1 interface”, said Conor Pierce, VP of Microsoft Devices for the UK and Ireland. “This is a great product for our customers, providing a premium experience at an affordable price point.”
Nokia Lumia 630 Features
The Nokia Lumia 630 comes a 4.5-inch FWVGA display protected by Gorilla Glass powered by a 1830mAh battery.
It comes with Windows Phone 8.1 pre-installed, running on a 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor with 512MB of RAM. There is only 8GB of internal storage, but this is helped by microSD card support up to 128GB.
Enclosed within a matte polycarbonate design, you can interchange the shells on the Lumia 630 just like you could with the Nokia Lumia 620 before it.
The Lumia 630 features a new SensorCore technology that brings low power motion sensing, letting you track your activity using apps like Bing Health and Fitness.
The little Lumia 630 also packs a 5-megapixel rear camera with autofocus, but lacks a flash and front-facing camera.
It does offer Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0 and 3G connectivity, but can’t match the 4G offerings of the EE Kestrel and new Moto G 4G.
