Great phone
Pros: Large, easy to read and operate. Fast! Never a "resuming" screen! Glance screen!
Cons: Camera is so-so, but at least there's a flash and auto focus.
Overall Review: This is the RM-995 version of the 1320 and it's SIM-unlocked. This means it will work on any GSM carrier, and more importantly, it has all the LTE bands required for it to work on T-Mobile US. It's the "Latin America country variant", so upon turning it on for the first time, it will display everything in Spanish. No big deal, just set the language and region to US English. It comes with Windows Phone 8.0 and Black, but the 8.1/Cyan update is already available for it, so run software update a few times, and you'll have Windows Phone 8.1 and Cortana. To enable Cortana, the phone needs to be set to region: US, language, US English, keyboard: US English. Unless you need them, you can also remove the extra keyboard languages (Spanish and Portuguese) to unclutter the keyboard. If you want WP 8.1, update 1, you'll need to install and activate Preview for Developers, and sign up for a free WP dev account. If you want a protective case for it, don't get one with a flipcover covering the front screen. It will mess with the phone's operation (glance screen, double tap to wake will always be activated, draining the battery and causing brief lockups).
Works as expected, never received MIR
Pros: It's a brand-name memory card that works as expected. Not the fastest, but OK. So far so good.
Cons: Never received the "up to $15 mail-in rebate". Company claims the receipt is missing. You know, the receipt I had stapled to the rebate form.
Great little device!
Pros: The screen is much brighter, crisper and sharper than on my previous TomTom One. Also, larger. Thanks to QuickGPS, a satellite fix is acquired fast. The system runs stable and fast and the user interface is self-explanatory and intuitive.
Cons: Maps are meh. As good as it gets, I guess. POIs are hit and miss, and obviously entered by people who don't speak English at all.
