Wrong phone description
Just wondering if anyone else has an incorrect phone description on their account? I recently activated my 256GB White Pixel 6 Pro, in my profile it shows as a 128GB Black Pixel 6 Pro. Not sure ...

It was the same way when I bought from Google a Pixel 5a5G. It showed as a Pixel 4a but it's not a big deal to me. It doesn't hinder the phones performance.
...it is a big deal when you need to file an insurance claim. They say your actual phone isn't covered and try to replace it with a less than phone that shows up on your account. All these comments have people saying the basic floor model is showing up on their account. That's BS.It's the imei# that matters not the description of the phone. Run your imei# through Tmobile's imei checker for the correct phone description.

Eh, my wife has a BYOD Nokia (that needs to be replaced) but T-Mobile's system shows it as a Blackberry 6710. 160x160 LCD display, "This global roaming GSM device features GPRS high-speed data, PIM functionality, Backlit QWERTY keyboard, wireless modem, speakerphone, E-Mail client and Web capabilities." Also, no camera.
