I had T-Mobile for almost 2 year. Excellent reception and rarely dropped calls. I also had AT&T before, which gave not so good reception and dropped call very often.

Always 5 bars and 3G reception in building. Never experienced a drop call once. Must be near a tower or something.

Have never had a problem with my Alltel phone which I had when I moved here four years ago. Still get excellent reception. I think they have now merged with Verizon and are using their towers.

I used to have Cingular (before merger with AT&T) and reception was horrible - really, terrible. I now have Verizon and the call clarity is amazingly clear. I've yet to find a dead zone where I don't have coverage. I wouldn't mind getting an iPhone but there's no way I want to switch my provider now as Verizon are care-free (albeit a bit expensive for data plans).

At long last AT&T has brought their tower in operation at Foothill Presbyterian Church (5301 McKee Rd) We have noticed that this area of the Eastside of San Jose, has tremendous Improvement to reception..

GREAT, I always have 7 out of 7 bars, inside my house, at school, in the gym, everywhere. And since three years ago, the new EVDO network works seamlessly across the area. I love Sprint!

A brand new cell tower just went in at McKean and Fortini at the end of April 2007! The entire south Almaden valley now has great reception. Way to go Verizon!

Verizon has great reception for me around 1st and Julian area. I saw T Mobile's coverage map and it looks like service is spotty around parts of downtown. I don't know much about Cingular though. Verizon's price is higher than the rest, but, I can't afford to have no coverage (I have no wired line).

With Cingular, generally the reception is great. Though some days it seems horrible. Even though they are all horrible, when I used T-Mobile they had the worst cell service and worst customer service.

Both my wife and I get terrific reception with T-Mobile at home, anywhere inside the house, but zero bars at a friend's house 1 mile south of here. T-mob website does have a street level coverage chart, so you can tell where their towers are... Service is overall great throughout my travels in Bay Area, and I have excellent coverage when I travel nationwide, and even in Europe. Wish they offered broadband, though...

I was with Cingular before but had to switch to Verizon because of bad reception with Cingular. Verizon is the only carrier that works perfect in my apartment. My friends with T-Mobile and Cingular had similar issues whenever they visit my place. So far Verizon never let me down. I am going to extend the contract with Verizon for another 2 yrs after my current contract period that ends in the next few weeks.

Always good reception on several Verizon phones, esp the old Kyocera. But Ok with Samsung SCH-A670 and Motorola e815, also. However, with an early Sprint Samsung Uproar (1st MP3 phone), had to return it cause no signal at this location. :(

This is actually an older ATT Wireless TDMA account and not Cingular's newer GSM service. GSM in this area hardly works at all. At my house there is zero reception with a GSM phone. The TDMA signal is perfect however.
