I always have 5 bars when outside or in my home.

I drop calls off and on all the time, but it is especially bad in the Carmel area. I'm thinking of trying Verizon

Good reception in our home and in the neighborhood. Several years ago Sprint PCS service would have 10-15% dropped calls, but over the last two years we have not had dropped calls from our neighborhood.

outside poor, inside no reception

Reception fades on 116 just east of Cumberland. I have way too many missed calls at my residence. Also has poor reception around Geist Reservoir. However, text messages are about 5-6 times faster using this phone because of the voice command function. If you think you can text faster with any other phone, you are wrong! About 3 to 1 faster than T9 predictive text, which it also has.

It's okay, I get really poor reception in my neighborhood though
