For two years with Alltel we had perfect reception inside and out then two weeks ago - Verizon updated something and now our service is none existent - we have no service inside the house and limited outside. Complained to Verizon - no response.

Never, ever had a problem with Alltel. VZ was going to be just as good because they were buying all of Alltels towers. My Pearl worked fine up until two weeks ago. So of course I thought the phone was broken. bought a new Curve and guess what? The WIFI 3G high teck is just as bad as the Pearl was. Now, how can I get a great signal everyday for 3 years with my Pearl and then it just stops? Oh it's just great on a business call. By the way. My wife's 5 year old MotoRazr works great! Low teck and great signal with the same carrier on the same contract!

Right at the crest of 1-10 before going down into the Tucson area. I would recommend turning off roaming on a Sprint brand phone unless you're in a really rural area.

Verizon wireless works great out here in or outside the home. The only area where I get spotty reception is when I am driving in or out of town along Old Spanish Trail past Jeremy Wash.

Just South of Houghton / Sahaurita Intersection / Houghton, Vail, AZ 85641 Sun Sep 07, 2008

Inside my house or outside my house the reception is poor. Oddly, enough the best reception seems to be in my hallway. My hallway is in the center of my home with the peak of the roof directly overhead. The particular phone in use has an internal antennae, which I'm sure does not help. What little reception is available does seem to fluctuate with the weather. Any storm or heavy weather will shift or manipulate the best reception areas. I am currently looking for a better alternative, either better phone or service.

Spotty reception throughout house. Frequent dropped calls with supposedly fair signal. I guess that's what I get for moving to the middle of nowhere.

Brand new phone and I barely get 1 bar outside the house. This one is going back and I'll be trying a difference service.

Sycamore Canyon / Sahuarita and Harrison, Vail, AZ 85641 Tue Jan 15, 2008

Up in the Sycamore Canyon development reception is poor. If you're by a window it might work. Basically you need a land line. So much for the fancy phone features. Oh, since getting my iPhone and switching to AT&T I have had numerous dropped calls. Its either the phone which doesn't have an external antenna or its AT&T. In either case the iPhone is great but my reception is questionable.

Houghton / Sahaurita, Vail, AZ 85641 Fri Sep 21, 2007

Depends on the time of day as to whether or not the phone will ring. It is impossible to retrieve any messages, hencing the land line that I have to have. I needed to call 911 but thank goodness I had a land line or I would have bled to death.
