I never drop calls, have never lost service, and voice calls are always crystal clear! I even get full EV-DO service here in Frankenmuth. I work in Bridgeport and Flint and between these areas, and Saginaw, I've only found one hard dead spot on i75. I think it is just south of Birch Run, maybe close to Clio, where any Sprint phone will drop your call, EVDO coverage drops, etc. Other than that, I would definitely recommend Sprint in this area!

Great coverage with this Verizon phone. Inside our house we get two bars but the phone still works great (we are at the edge of the regular service area... a mile or so away lies an extended annalog area). Everywhere else we get fantastic coverage all over the state except some UP areas. Hint: to take fullest advantage of America's Choice coverage map you still need a phone with analog capabilities (tri mode phone). I made a call on this phone from an island in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Maine and got connected.
