I can get five bars, but cannot connect to 1XEV, can only connect to 1X with slow internet speeds.

Great reception. 1st floor in condo, surrounded by buildings and walls.

Excellent coverage, never had a problem.

I drive all over town and have nothing but great reception wherever I go. It is very rare for me to lose a call or have things go garbled. Two years ago I had T-mobile. It was terrible.

I have had Verizon wireless for almost 6 months now and I couldnt be happier. I get singal almost everywhere I go. Ill get a dropped call every once in awhile when Im at my friends appartment(which is on the bottom floor in the basement). There custumer care isnt half bad but its not the best Ive ever seen. I like them a lot better then AT&T because there is no suprises in the bill, unlike AT&T.

Great Reception in this area with no dropped calls - indoors and out.

Perfect everywhere in KC but is not in the US cellular coverage area. Never had a dropped call anywhere in the US and have had for a year and a half.

No dropped calls, good reception even in basements.

I live in the neighborhood here and get perfect reception through T-Mobile. I'm getting ready to move though, and am rather scared because their coverage map looks to have little to no reception in my new neighborhood, and I signed up for a year only about 4 months ago.

Usually get perfect reception... but it occasionally drops to 4 out of 7 bars.

After over a decade of getting jacked by Sprint I switched to Virgin Mobile's Pay-as-you-go service last December, and I couldn't be more pleased. The phone works well, has decent reception wherever I use it, and gets signal in places a lot of my friend's phones don't, like the middle of a farm field in Cameron, MO. Furthermore, their customer service people understand what "customer service"means, and are always helpful and pleasant. (Plus which, they all speak and understand English). I would strongly recommend to anyone who is sick to death of bad service and surprise fees from Sprint, AT&T, MCI, or anyone else switch to Virgin Mobile!

I recently switched from Sprint because of bad reception in this area. I reported this to Sprint 5 different times over the last 2 years with no action taken. I've switched to T-Mobile and am very happy.

Sprint's newer generation phones will solve most any reception problems people may have experienced with older models.

I drive the the city everyday and always have good reception. The only problem area is Gregory Blvd.and I-35 / I-29 hwy split in the northland. Now 4g sucks on the Missouri side of the line. I think Sprint thinks Missourian's are second class citizens. Sprint step up your 4g, especially in the northland before Missourian's turn on you.

I don't know what others are talking about, they must have broken antennas or something. I travel up and down I-35 I-29 Hwy. 9 In Briercliff north of the river Gladstone, all over the Metro, without a problem. I even have a crappy phone, If one would turn down the music in their car, maybe they could here that their phone wasen't dead afterall. I have had people tell me at Sprint is bad. I have family members that don't like Sprint, but they keep re-newing their contract every 2 years... what does that tell you.

My phone's a piece but the cell coverage is fine, I guess. Never really had much trouble.

Have had this device for about 2 years. Have had little or no problems with reception. Have had no complaints anywhere in the Northland with it with ATT. I had a Sony prior and had reception problems and dropped calls in many locations with it.

I could ask for better, but not for the price. I roam all over this area, into Kansas, down to 291 and 70, south to the triangle, north to the airport. And I haven't had a spot that I didn't have coverage. Not even up at Roosterville airport. I use these guys prepaid and I haven't had a single complaint about them for myself, my wife or my son. All 3 of us have the same model. Would I like to see 5 bars? Sure, who wouldn't. But I get 5 bars some times, have 4 most of the time, 3 most of the part that isn't 4 or 5, and 2 the tiny remainder of the time. That's plenty good enough for my needs, and it's a whole lot better than the Virgin Mobile I had that couldn't get 3 bars most of the time, even standing right outside the tower in Randolph. Next week my mom's is getting replaced, and you can bet I'll put her on their service, too.

Great coverage through most of South Kansas City, Downtown Kansas City, and KCK

Great reception at home, around town, and across the country; no dropped calls. Thinking about switching due to customer service issues.
