1 Out of 5 (1 star) | Alliant Energy Powerhouse | 1st Ave., Cedar Rapids, IA 52401 |

I have a 5G Google Pixel 6 XL with service through Verizon. Every single time I'm in Iowa. My cell phone service absolutely sucks!

My T-Mobile service is based in Las Vegas, Nevada. Works perfectly in Vegas. Each time I visit Cedar Rapids, the internet is very slow to load (If at all) on my Galaxy S9. Brother's Verizon service works great. Let's get with it T-Mobile!

Sprint

2 Out of 5 (2 stars) | Basically Anywhere In Town, the Coverage Goes From, Cedar Rapids, IA 52404 |

The other day I was having to use my navigation app. I was in the downtown area but not amongst the tall buildings. I moved 6 to 8 blocks 3 times and could not connect. The Johnson Ave. HyVee area is like a black hole, no coverage Sprint. I am tired of hearing how they will improve.

AT&T

2 Out of 5 (2 stars) | Marion | Hwy. 13 and 151, Cedar Rapids, IA 52402 |

Great in town in Cedar Rapids --always have full bars, and 4G, with exception to some occasional quirks that I believe to be more or less white noise issues, as I have a ton of wireless devices around. The frustrating thing is as soon as I leave Cedar Rapids and out past Marion(in either direction) I lose service almost immediately. This didn't happen with Verizon. In fact I could make it all the way to Cascade before signal degradation. However, as it stands I am out of service a couple miles out from Anamosa, and a couple miles out from Central City (depending on whether Hwy. 13, or 151). My wife stayed with Verizon and laughs every time. In fact the other day we were passing Cascade and I had her check my old "choke point" from my Verizon days, and she had solid service even out past Cascade. If I continue on 151, I don't see service again until Dubuque... or more accurately, Wisconsin.

Verizon

1 Out of 5 (1 star) | Off Glass Rd.NE | Shasta Dr.NE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52402 |

Fluctuates between No Signal and 2 bars (average of 1), but signal fluctuates up and down, with about 30% of calls over 3 minutes getting dropped... very frustrating. I have trouble with texts not going through 25% of the time, as well. Even with a new Network Extender, I have to be right next to it in order to have a clear cell signal... but at least it works when I have to make a call.

AT&T

2 Out of 5 (2 stars) | I380 | 32nd St. NE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52402 |

2 bars in the house, slow to load. Only keep ATT because we don't want to pay for new phones and our son lives in Iowa City with good coverage by ATT.

We have had ATT since 2004. When we lived in Rochester, MN the reception was not great but once we moved to Cedar rapids the reception has been terrible. We never have more than one bar and frequently have to resend text messages due to poor coverage. We are considering moving to Verizon or US Cellular but the cost of replacement phones is ridiculous.

Sprint

4 Out of 5 (4 stars) | Westdale Mall SW | Wilson Ave., Cedar Rapids, IA 52404 |

I've had Sprint for over 15 years and always satisfied with service and new prices they set up make it cheaper than I was paying years ago. 4g LTE almost everywhere in town and their network all over USA major cities except in South Dakota no service there. I'm keeping sprint.

It can take up to 12 hours to send a picture message. It's the worst reception I have had the misfortune of using. I'm heading back to Verizon. In this day and age, you should be able to send a picture in less than a few minutes.
