I get big green bars of great reception right in my apartment! I'm in sales and have to make a lot of calls from my place, so I've been suprisingly happy with Nextel's service over this last whole year. I've had Nextel for 5 years now and can say they have definitely improved every year. Only one phone I had from them was a major problem 2 years ago, but when I got the i870 everything turned up roses. I even get good reception on my trips to the east coast! There are only a few spots in LA I've found that don't get reception with Nxtl. If you live in this area and have bad reception; try a test-run with Nxtl- I think they let you try out the phone for a few days before you agree to a contract.

Reception in most of the South Bay is very good. Signal drops off along Artesia from Aviation to Hawthorne. May have been the phone though, I've had a SE W600 for a few days now and the signal seemed stronger on that same drive.

Drop calls to no signal. I have to go outside to make a phone call. AT&T had the best service before they merged with Cingular. Now I feel like one of Cingular's step children. Every time I talk to a Cingular rep about my recpetion problems, they immediately want to switch me to one of their contracts. I tell them "No Thanks". Don't switch to Cingular. They suck.

I get full service at my house, but with the Cingular network, I am getting a lot of dropped calls (not sure if it is the network or phone itself).

I get great reception in and around Torrance. I was never able to get reception at home with Sprint. My daughter has Cingular and reception is so-so.

Strong reception. I switched and left the horrible GSM services of Cingular / AT&T... I couldn't stand the numerous dropped calls and it annoys me that my friends who are still on the GSM network are always getting cut off when I'm talking to them from my Sprint service. Generally in South Bay area, I have no issues with Sprint's reception except in portions of Hermosa Beach.
