Solid without using the adhesive
Style: Google TV Streamer Mount
My have a weathered wood feature wall, and the adhesive didn't work well. However, it screwed into place just fine. Happy with it.

Perfect seamless mount!
Style: Google TV Streamer Mount
This little mount is awesome. I recently upgraded from a Chromecast to a Google TV and I wanted it to be hidden just like the small Chromecast, so I bought this mount. With the included double sided sticker mount, I mounted it right behind my TV. The Google TV is safely in there and perfectly hidden.

These do work!
Keep in mind that sometimes the CS reps at T-Mobile get the numbers you've read to them over the phone wrong, those are the only instances in which they told me the card isn't working where did you get them? From Amazon I always reply telling them I've been buying them for years with no issues because you can't find these cards anywhere anymore but on Amazon or from T-Mobile, Walmart no longer carries anything but whatever brands of phones they're selling. So, don't listen to the reviews telling you these aren't valid cards because they are indeed valid cards, have T-Mobile read the numbers back to you if needed, my call to them recently had no questions about where I got the cards, both went through just fine. T-Mobile reps are finally realizing you can buy these elsewhere. The expire dates at least 2 yrs out so no worries there. I recommend these cards without any hesitation!

Peace and quiet finally...
Ah, ‘tis the season—baby momma's calling, the rug rats need gifts, and I’m seriously considering changing my number. But for now, I’ll settle for these T-Mobile SIM cards. Why? Because nothing says “please stop asking for more” like a new phone number. Yep, two of them. Perfect for prepaid plans, postpaid plans, or just plans to avoid commitment—kind of like me.
The **"triple-cut" design** is the real MVP here, because whether they need Nano, Micro, or Standard, these cards can handle it. Compatibility with **3G, 4G, and LTE** means it’s versatile enough for any device, as long as it’s GSM. But heads up: these SIMs are unactivated. Translation? You’re on your own when it comes to setting them up. No annual contract, though—because who wants a long-term commitment these days? Not me.
So, if you need to keep the peace with minimal effort or just want to gift-wrap some “DIY connectivity,” these SIM cards get the job done. But seriously, I need to start screening calls.

Sketchy
I bought this 2 pack and activated it for use in a remote device, not a cell phone.
Activating it on the phone with T-Moble is easy enough. You will need to tell them the devices IMEI number, the zip code where service will be used, and the SIM Card Number printed on the SIM card.
They charge a $5 activation fee along with the first month's payment for whatever data plan you choose. The minimum you could choose is a 2GB/month plan for $10/month with automatic activation.
(I wish I had read the details on the product more closely. I made the mistake of seeing some value in "pre-paid". There is NOTHING PRE-PAID about this card.
Plus the customer service seems a bit sketchy. On my first call I didn't have the IMEI device number. When I explained that I'd have to call back, the tech tried several different ways to press me for the SIM card number and other details to speed up the process when I called in again. That seemed odd since he wasn't able to create an account for me in the system without all of the information and the $5 activation fee. So, despite being a catch-22 he kept trying to get the SIM card number.
