is lumia 640 xl have "Hey Cortana" passive listening...??

[WPCentral Question]

plz tell me

Probably not, because its not a Snapdragon 8xx chip but S400 which does not support passive listening

 

[Richard Culverhouse]

Aww ****! Might not get one after all then.

I have it on my L1520.. It's kinda cool but certainly not a groundbreaking feature.

But 640 xl have sensor core... So why it doesn't have passive listening...???

Passive listening is supported on devices running theQualcomm 8XX chipset and 640xl has 4xx. Hence it wont support passive listening!

Simply because sensor core is not part of the passive listening feature. It needs a SD 8xx

Not sure if you guys mean cortana not being available on the 630 xl,

But Cortana is Available on the 640 xl. Just need to change the country to United States and it would work. - 640xl User :grincry:

Cortana is one thing... "Hey Cortana" is another advanced feature where the user can say "Hey Cortana" and the assistant opens hands free even if the phone is locked. It is set to the users individual voice. As discussed above, "Hey Cortana" requires a certain SoC and has nothing to do with Region.
