14 DAY TRIAL // Nokia Lumia 630 was made official back in April in two flavors, one of which packs dual-SIM capabilities inside, and it seems that the device has just made an appearance in Italy, on Amazon.
In fact, the dual-SIM Nokia Lumia 630 is now up for grabs in other countries in Europe too, including France and Germany, although it was expected to arrive only on shelves on emerging markets out there.
At the moment, mobile phone users in Italy interested in the purchase of this smartphone will find it available through the aforementioned retailer, with a price tag of €159 ($216) attached to it.
The handset was released in Black, Green and Yellow versions and is said to be in stock now. Most probably, it will be released in other color versions as well in the not-too-distant future.
For those out of the loop, we should note that this is the cheapest Windows Phone 8.1 handset that Nokia has unveiled to date, and that it comes as a nice update over Lumia 630 and Lumia 625.
The phone was made official with a 4.5-inch IPS LCD touchscreen display capable of delivering an 854 x 480 pixels resolution and protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3, as well as with a 1.2 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 (Cortex-A7) processor.
Moreover, the Windows Phone 8.1 device also sports Adreno 305 graphics, along with 512MB of RAM, and 8GB of internal memory. Those who would like to expand the available storage will be able to make use of up to 128GB of additional memory via microSD cards.
On the back, the Nokia Lumia 630 sports a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus, capable of 720p video recording. Unfortunately, the device boasts no front camera for making video calls.
The specs list of this handset also includes 3G (HSDPA, 21 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps) connectivity, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi hotspot, DLNA, and a built-in GPS receiver with A-GPS support, and GLONASS for navigation purposes.
Moreover, the mobile phone sports the entire range of usual sensors, along with a Li-Ion 1830mAh battery (BL-5H) that can deliver up to 13 hours and 10 minutes of talk time, or up to 600 hours of standby time.
Additionally, the Nokia Lumia 630 provides users with all of the features and capabilities that Windows Phone 8.1 was announced with, such as an Action Center, Start Screen backgrounds, and more. You should head over to Amazon Italy for more info on the availability of the phone’s dual-SIM variant in this country.
