[Windows Central Question]

Hi Guys,

I am thinking of getting Lumia 638 which comes with 4G LTE (which is great!). Can someone tell me how the phone performs?

It will perform really good since its a Snapdragon 400 mated to 480p screen and 1gb RAM. So the raw performance of this phone is even better than a 730 or 830.
If u can live with the absence of flash and FFC then its a really good buy at the price.

Graphics performance probably outpaces the 730 and 830, assuming they're identical under the hood because of the lower res screen. Probably wont notice though.

It's a solid budget device. It has no app restrictions because of 1 GB of RAM onboard, but is otherwise identical to a 635, which is a solid device in itself. I don't expect performance to be a major issue. It's not equipped to go toe-to-toe with a Galaxy S5 or iPhone 6, but it works well as a "it'll get you there" phone.
