Will band work with this phone?

[x I'm tc]

My sister has the HTC 8X on AT&T and is very interested in the Band.

Can't say for sure but I've read several postings on WindowsCentral that say the band requires BT 4.0. That works if you have 8.1 and Cyan. What I don't know is whether the 8X has BT40 capability built in.

I'm pretty sure the 8x has bluetooth 4.0 I have an 8x & a Fitbit Flex. The Flex requires bluetooth 4.0 to sync & my Flex syncs just fine on my 8x. Also the Fitbit people have stated on there forums that they have confirmed with HTC that the 8x is an officially compatible Fitbit device, which mean that the 8x must have bluetooth 4.0 in it to work with a Fitbit device. So if the Microsoft Band requires bluetooth 4.0 then the 8x should work just fine.

I sync my Band to an 8X on Verizon without issue.

Running developer preview and Band syncs fine to 8x. Though my fitbit, doesn't like that my band is connected.
