The AT&T version is pentaband, so it would work on TMO if you can get it unlocked.

Musicman247 says:

I was referring to the 925 still not clearing the FCC.

lubbalots says:

...and with the former policy, you don't have to buy or rent. Just play your friends games, that is if you're on their list. Save tons of money. Not anymore. Thanks.

jgbstetson says:

Don't bother.

oddom says:

You don't have to wear yourself out arguing with us lol look you have your points and I would have probably gotten it anyway but can we agree no matter what the new killer instinct is gonna be awesome

IceDree says:

I don't mind If they do it properly , but if they gonna do it like Android ... oh boy

OMG55 says:

Don't start bashing MS, they're just trying to please all of the whiners while fighting the what seems to have been a Pro-Sony media blitz from the like of Cnet, The Verge, Engadget, and more who are also pro Apple. At one time I loved Tom Warren, but since he closed his site and moved to The Verge, his articles are suspect as if he can't express himself freely like he once did.

First off, half of that graph is not labeled...it's like a 4th grader made it. Second, it's made by an Tomi Ahonen, a well known and vehement anti-Elop writer. He hates everything about Windows Phone, Microsoft and Nokia adopting it as a platform--has been pushing for his dismissal since day one. Just saying, know your source. That guy is terribly biased (and a terrible writer).

flowkidd says:

The T-mobile 8X has a setting to limit the fastest connection but the 920 does not.
WIth the 8X for T-mobile is not even an issue cause it doesn't have LTE anyway.
I also hope that they add more setting options for APN and MMS settings, like android include the ports and stuff.

gibbage says:

I have no faith in Tmobile. Almost switched for Att for the 920, but will for this.

Daniel Rubino says:

Your opinion...has no value to me :(

DavidinCT says:

Actually 3 or 4 publishers publicly said that they are against Microsoft's DRM. One game (witcher 3 ?) said they would not create the game for Xbox one because of the DRM would cause less players to be able to play their game.
 
I'm sure there was a few like EA all for it but, not everyone was...

dreonedon says:

Wonderful news go Microsoft.

M_Lyons10 says:

It would be neater if it could enable the alarm only when it comes in contact with an NFC pad... That way when you go to bed and set your phone down it would set the alarm...

bigtoe88 says:

of course people that can't afford internet really shouldn't be buying a $500 game system.

Ethan Jensen says:

Though take notice how many of the PS4 versions/bundles are in the top sellers. But still cool to see XB1 doing well.

bigtoe88 says:

I do agree that the fact that everyone can't get online is a problem, and obvisouly this move was a little too soon for people to handle.
 
But, it was going to be awesome and it is too bad people shot it down without even understanding it.
 
Cheers, sorry i called you a troll :)

lancguy says:

Like so many others here, I'm disappointed with this also. But, I'm not surprised. Everyone seems to blame the very vocal ones. I'd think there were other issues that caused Microsoft to reverse course. Ever since the launch, I wondered how this was going to play out with the EU. I'm sure the company would have found itself in trouble again due to the DRM. Regardless, it sucks :(

TechFreak1 says:

You'll start hearing more of that crap as soon ios7 becomes more widely advertised.. bleh makes me sick how ignorant some people can be..

OMG55 says:

And they call themselves tech geeks, but cried wolf about DRM. Next they will be crying MS isn't innovating. I have no problem with it because there's always draw backs to any scenario.

mce076 says:

If that is even close to true, then screw you Elop.

bigtoe88 says:

wait, I am confused.  Now I have to argue the other side.
 
Selling a game that you are done with or loaning it to a friend is NOT pirating.  And, it is certaintly not illegal.
 
It is an old archaic way of doing things, but nothing is wrong with it.

M_Lyons10 says:

It would also be nice to be able to search for news, or customize what you want to see a bit better...

But I do like the app.

oddom says:

This is all fine and dandy but when people can't get online we just say "tough shit buddy looks like your not playing a game today". They moved to fast assuming everyone is online all the time and even though I can afford internet why should those who can't be punished? Actually Its already been reversed so hey whatever :)

sholokov says:

That's because Chrome is a x86 application and not a metro app. In short, RT does not run any x86 software.

brandoshido says:

So does that mean this version will be compatible with us tmobile?

kidjenius says:

Stupid

M_Lyons10 says:

Hard to believe their old, unupdated, version was 3.0... LOL. Here's hoping that this means we'll get some more regular updates now...

I also see that Sharing to Social Networks has finally been fixed. Thank God!

On The Floor says:

Shut your dumb ass troll self up and enjoy your stupid PS4 that can't do anything but play games.

charlessfriend says:

Me too so she can take better pictures of me :)

TechFreak1 says:

1080p is just a marketing gimmick and most likely will drain the battery quicker. I guess 1080p matters to people  using their phone to view videoes but who watches full long movies on a phone?... given viewing videos are the 2nd best way to drain the battery, playing games is the first.

charlessfriend says:

I'm crossing my fingers!

coip says:

Ugh, this is very disappointing. Their original strategy was much better, just poorly explained. They should've had a PR team from 6 months ago onward explaining the benefits of their original strategy: digital and remote sharing with up to 10 people (awesome), accessing your library on any console (awesome), games that grow thanks to cloud computing and digital downloads and updates (awesome), not having to lug around discs or pop discs into and out of the tray to play them (awesome). Instead they did no PR and let Sony do a PR coup (I really hate Sony right now for holding back the industry. If they had just announced the same features instead of trying to cheaply sieze on public misconception, all would've been fine, but instead they ruined everythign and now Microsoft has reneged on their awesome plan. Also, for those people who keep whining about the Kinect  being bundled in: please stop before you ruin that for everyone too.

 

Tech King says:

+1,000,000!!!!!

oddom says:

Lord only knows all the illegal things we do on a daily basis that we don't know about. But you know what Microsoft was never crying about gamestop or pushing lawsuits...sooooooo yea

Sam Sabri says:

Can't you limit your fastest cellular connection in settings? Does that turn off LTE?

Viipottaja says:

It won't.

Viipottaja says:

You would know he is in Finland how exactly? And, there are daily flights out of Europe, heck, even Finland. :D

wolfgangjr says:

You explained exactly why this sucks now. I didn't want to carry my library with me. So much ignorance.

simphf says:

You must have an IQ of 160.

boxa72 says:

Totally agree! Those assholes fuck everything;)

Viipottaja says:

Sure. Rumore de amore.

wolfgangjr says:

Because you still live in the past and refuse to move forward. Physical media will die. You just made it take that much longer.

flowkidd says:

I have sold all phones in my cache for this.  Lumia 920, Galaxy S3, Optimus L9 and my iPhone 5 are gone or about to be.  Rocking the T-mobile 8X and I can say it has way better batery than the 920, hopefully they get smart and add a way to turn off LTE.

camptime says:

For me the region blocking was the only problem, sad they dropped no disc in drive requirement and 10 family members.
There is still no reason Microsoft cannot fine tune all these thing after all there is still 5 months till release.

aitt says:

Hmmm first 877 and now 875

wolfgangjr says:

They had plenty until you PSsheep nerfed it without understanding.

sickleykey says:

I am planning to buy one for my wife. This will also be a replacement for my pocket digital camera. Life is good with one less device.

lavchild says:

In my eyes its a sad day for gamers! The future of gaming was upon us & now we have just a high powered current gen! Nothing revolutionary like xbox ones original plan. Its such a shame that the internet has given the twat a voice that has killed off such a great idea! I shall still be purchasing the xboxone on launch, but feel rather sad that its not the true version!
All the people complaining will be the retards that play call of duty 20hours a day on xbox live (or psn) constantly connected to the internet, but the 24 hour checkin becomes an issue & for what reason? There isn't 1!!! Come on people get with the times now is the future & xbox one was it!
& talk about paranoid, kinect always listening to you. it listens for 2 words (xbox on). what are you worried about? Your clearly upto something wrong if that scares the everyday public! Come on Microsoft you can win this war still your exclusives are awesome & in my eyes you could have won before the change with that alone!
