One of the cheapest 4G phones landing this year
Half-decent autofocus camera, Has 4G
Screen not terribly sharp, No front camera or flash, Pricing not quite aggressive enough
Expert review by : Jon Mundy (techradar.com)
Fast and cheap
Windows Phone 8.1 is improvement ; Strong build quality ; 4G capable
No flash or front camera ; 4G price bump not such great value ; Screen lacks sharpness
Nokia's latest budget phone sports 4G and Windows Phone 8.1 out of the box, and benefits from all of the things we liked about the Lumia 630. However, it's not quite enough of an improvement to justify the additional premium.
Expert review by : Andrew Hoyle (cnet.co.uk)
The Nokia Lumia 635 is a colourful, affordable 4G LTE phone running the attractive and easy to use Windows Phone 8.1 software.
The Nokia Lumia 635 has an affordable price, its interchangeable cases are colourful and attractive and it has 4G LTE.
Adding 4G LTE has meant the battery life has taken a hit, its screen resolution is unimpressive and its camera isn't really up to anything more than the odd Instagram snap.
With its fun design and cheap price, the Lumia 635 is a decent option to consider if you're after 4G LTE on a budget. It's only marginally more expensive than its near-identical 3G-only Lumia 630 sibling, so you should certainly opt for the 635. If you...

The new Nokia Lumia 635 undercuts the Motorola Moto G 4G on price, but does it offer as much bang for your buck? In case...
Easy-to-use operating system
Mediocre battery life
Expert review by (which.co.uk)
The Nokia Lumia 635 is an affordable smartphone with a 5Mp camera. We like the fact that you can expand the onboard storage. But is it quick enough for browsing the internet? And what's the call quality like? We ran it through our tough tests to find out.

Following hot on the heels of the Lumia 630 we have yet anotherDay-Glo coloured budget phone from Nokia. The Lumia 635 adds 4G toa decent device and range of extras from Nokia and Microsoft.
Decent processor, acceptable camera, Nokia and Windows extras,expandable memory, 4G
Screen could be better, Windows Store still a bit lean
The Nokia Lumia 635 is a solidly built workhorse of a phone thatmay not have an HD screen like the similarly priced Moto G, but does its bit to make up for it with extras likeMicrosoft Office and free online storage, as well as Nokia's musicand sat-nav...

Nokia's currently on a Windows Phone 8.1 roll, unleashing the budget-friendly Lumia 630 back in May, but now the Microsoft-owned company is back again with a updated version of the same handset, the Lumia 635. While on the outset, the £139 handset...
The Nokia Lumia 635 is a slight update to an already well-rounded budget blower that brings 4G powers to the table and a slicker, glossy body too. Even though Windows 8.1 packs in many features we've been craving for ages, it's still playing catch-up...

The only 4G smartphone in its $279 price range worth buying
Well built ; 4G connectivity ; Competitively priced ; Windows Phone 8.1
Low resolution screen and camera
The beauty of the Lumia 635 is someone with a flagship smartphone could pick this little Nokia up and still have all their needs met. The screen and camera idle at mediocre, but between the quad-core CPU and the rich Windows Phone 8.1 software, this...

Given the deep morass Nokia and Microsoft are currently slogging through—the blah earnings , the layoff plans , a still-small app store , general confusion —it's refreshing to see that the mobile phone partnership is not all doom and gloom. The Lumia...
Very accessible price for 4G LTE networking and a fresh OS. Windows Phone updated to include Cortana, better notifications, and tighter integration with Microsoft cloud services. Colorful interchangeable covers, solid body. Support for up to 128GB of...
Lacks a selfie camera, and rear-facing camera is not what you would expect from a Nokia. This is probably a phone more dedicated to social players than photo maniacs. Display is disappointing too
Expert review by : Sascha Segan (pcmag.com)
The Nokia Lumia 635's style puts it way ahead of other inexpensive smartphones on T-Mobile, although its camera capabilities are seriously lacking.
