good phones rather carrier provider am a old customer never any complaints or problems,nokia was always my option but I got a Samsung from a friend / any feed back about this brand and model Ididnt get the manual but is fairly easy to use it

live on one of the middle floors and reception on Cingular network is spotty at best. Sometimes I will have perfect reception and then for a couple hours no reception at all. Verizon gets best reception in this area (through friends' phones)

on average 2 bars from 4th (top) floor of our building. Many dropped calls -

Absolutely no (zero) reception from my apartment. This is ridiculous. Dear T-Mobile, I get voice and data reception on my blackberry all over the world why can't I get any reception in my Jersey City apartment? I literally have to poke my head out of the window to make calls, which inevitably last a minute or two before the single bar fades out!

Get pretty good reception most anywhere in Jersey City, one or two consistent dead spots, but that's it. Otherwise I get four bars or better almost all the time.

The advertisement with Cingular in UNTRUE. I get dropped calls, poor signal and reception inside the apartment all the time. This became very apparent when Cingular took over my previous service, AT&T Wireless. The only advantage with Cingular is the roll-over minutes. It's very pathetic since Jersey City is just minutes away from Hoboken, Newark and New York City where reception and signal is better than average.

terrible reception. Looks like I made a poor decision to go with Tmobile. No reception at all in my apartment, maybe a bar or two if I go outside. How in the world T-Mobile has such a large dead spot in downtown Jersey City is beyond me.

The only consistent thing about Sprint service is that it consistently sucks. Calls dropped regularly and roaming charges around Exchange Place, where I would think that given the number of people in the area talking on cells phones, the signal should be strong. I'm about to swtich back to a beeper and a pay phone.

tmobile is good theres no service only if u go underground but besides that they have good reception

No reception in my own kitchen. Unbelievabe. Their network is the worst I'd had ever seen, I recommend everyone pls. don't make the mistake in signing with them. They are not helpful at all and it's because they know their network is crappy, so they won't be able to do anything.
