1-2 bars in my house. Constant dropped calls. I have to stand in one corner of my bedroom where I get decent reception to make all my calls otherwise it's a wrap. I called Sprint about it, they claim I should have good reception over here. Meanwhile the rest of my family is on T-Mobile and they aren't encountering this problem at all.

Spotty signal at best. Still no EV-DO service here. Shot off an email to Sprint and they said they were still deploying EV-DO to certain areas of their network. However they would not comment on where they were currently settting up EV-DO nor would they give a timeline for EV-DO in the Savannah area. Brunswick, a tiny town about 80 miles south has EV-DO coverage yet the Savannah metro area pop,~300,000 still does not have it. I am curious as to why.

Reception is acceptable. But we still do not have EVDO data from Sprint. It seems like all other providers in this area already have high speed data and Sprint seems to be the only holdout. Wonder when they will get around to this?

I live on Wilmington Island and have had SPRINT for nearly 10 years. NO PROBLEMS anywhere in Savannah, or my home. However, I would rate it a 4.7 because there are DEAD ZONES here and there. But it's like for 1 second crossing the Thunderbolt Bridge, or things like that. Works great! I'd go nuts if I was you guys. Hope you're not under contract.

We have 2 cell phones and a wireless card, none of which get reception in our new home. We had problems getting reception in apartments on the island, too.

Weak Sprint signals in this part of the island ( near Wilmington Park Tennis courts ) and sometimes lose signal indoors. This appears to be the only real bad spot in 31410 as the rest of Wilmington island has strong 5 bar signal for voice and data.

Excellent Reception and fast data rates. No drops or dead spots.

Just moved to the Georgetown area in Savannah. Have zero reception around the house, inside or outside. Phone and reception work perfectly everywhere else... Sprint told me to buy a new phone. Have had problems the past year or so with voicemails not showing up in my mailbox until days later. Customer service had no explanation.

Berwick Plantation area next to the new Kroger shopping center has poor reception outside and usually none indoors. Spoke with Sprint many times even to the point that a technician drove through to test the signal. Of course, they said it's OK. Must be my phone. I got a newer 3G phone that gave a little improvement and things have gotten a little better. Went to Memphis TN on business and had perfect reception and clarity. Same deal at Atlanta's Hartsfield airport. My phone must only be broken in Savannah.

I have been with Sprint for 4 years and have been using a Samsung N200. I was not even able to use the phone at my home due to no reception - I have upgraded to the new Nokia 6016i and reception is now perfect.
