Excellent reception, I have never missed a call or have I ever had to look for a place to get better reception. I have not experienced a dropped call yet. I drove from Utah to Chicago and was able to make and receive calls on the highway in the middle of nowhere. Completely happy with my service. A bit expensive, but you pay what you get for. Internet speed is ok for my old Iphone, I get 2.25Mbps down on average. I wonder what speed a newer phone will get.

Always had great reception all over the entire Joliet - Chicago area. Signal used to be a little low in my basement, but a new tower just went up down the road and now I even get a decent 3G signal in my basement.

Alwys had reliable service in West Joliet and downtown Joliet - even indoors

Never Drop calls with this phone. Occasionally dropped calls with old Verizon Phone but newer phones work great.

I had Nextel with plenty of issues (i730 and i90c). Switched to T-Mobile (V600) with better success. Reception in joliet area is spotty, but crest hill and near St. Francis College not that great. Everywhere else I've gone around Chicagoland, no problems.

I've been getting the same story about towers being upgraded. No heads up about the change in reception. I've had about enough with Sprint. My contract is up in October and even that seems too long from now to keep putting up with them. As soon as the contract is over I will not be renewing! Customer service has been horrible along with quality of my "smart phones" and reception! not a happy customer at all! Would definitely NOT recommend Sprint to ANYONE!

Droped calls all the time on Iphone and blackberry. Dont get emails until get on highway. AT&T claims it is my equipment both a blackberry and iphone. Seems a bit crazy. Service has gotten worse do not get AT&T switching to verizon..

since Sprint took over Nextel the service has dropped, I loved Nextel till they took over now I barley get a signal I will be switching when contract is up. funny thing is they dont even try to keep you when you are going to cancel

great reception everywhere but around work at the H.S, I get 1 bar at most. As soon as I leave the school I get great reception.

Service not too great in the town of New Lenox. The further east I go into Joliet, the better it gets... almost full. In my subdivision, especially, my bars average two... but will certainly drop to one on many occassions. A few bars in the Frankfort, Mokena area, but when I get to Tinley or further north, it's full service. Verizon Wireless would be a great phone if I wasn't in the New Lenox area. Maybe I should live between Tinley and Chicago. By the way, that *228 thing that "updates" your phone is so phony. They tell you that in hopes that you'll do it and that psychology will convince you that your phone is working better for the moment.
