On this block and in my building, I get perfect reception. When moving toward the inner part of the building, signal strength drops slightly, but I still retain the ability to make calls even inside the elevator.

Lower East Side / Chrystie St. and Rivington, New York, NY 10002 Mon Jan 10, 2005

Surprisingly good reception. Absolutely no problems outside and fairly reliable inside (even in the bathroom :-) Overall, I didn't have too many complaints about Sprint in the city. I could make long taxi rides on the phone without dropped calls. Not that it even comes close to quality of service in Europe or Asia, but that's another story.

Never had a problem with reception - in NY or NJ area. Tempted to try T-Mobile since VZW doesn't offer the new B-Berry.

In my apartment on the 2nd floor I have to be sitting beside one particular window facing south to get one bar if I'm lucky. Boyfriend has Sprint with no problems with reception. I have to add that I have a very small year old phone that I didn't buy through the carrier (unlocked), which might be contributing to the problem, but I get good reception elsewhere in the city.

I have had Cingular for about 1 week now after switching from Verizon and haven't found one instance of no service (except in the tunnel under the east river (LIRR and Subway)) or very weak service in the tri-state. Get at least 3 to 5 bars of signal strength everywhere that I've been.

Perfect reception in my apartment. Migrated from ATT TDMA about 6 months ago and what an improvement. I travel around the metro and surburban area a lot by car and rarely get dropped calls which used to be the norm. The saturation is better than decent - though not perfect.

Just changed my old Motorola V60c (brilliant) after 2.5 years. Verizon reception perfect everywhere, can even take it in the bathroom. Just got this weekend Motorola V265 and had to change it after 48 hours - no sound, bad connection, static and dropping calls. Second new V265 brilliant - so far! Verizon is the best - with AT+T my partner has to hang outside my apartment window to get even one bar!

I am having the strangest problem. I intermittently get no signal at all on my 7100 in my office, while users of Blackberry 7230s get 3 or 4 bars. When I do occasionally have signal on the 7100 in this location, I get 3 or 4 bars! T-mobile has sent a replacement phone, which seemed to more consistently get signal for a while, but now repleats the same behavior. Popping my SIM in an n-gage QD yields full strength.

In my apartment it works fine. My girlfriend also had T-Mobile, but hers dropped calls all the time until she got a new phone. Her old one that didn't work well was the Sony Ericsson brick model.

I used to think T-mobile sucked, but now that I got the K700i, I realized it was my old phone. I get full reception indoors and outdoors. When I used to go into the subway and come out, my phone read "no network" until I turned the phone on and off. Now it catches the signal as I walk up the steps! My husband has a Nokia 7260 and his reception is great too. For T-Mobile, I can say the phone's reception makes a big difference.

I have to go right to the Corner of St. Nickolas and 190th St. If I even step 3 steps away I get no service. It's ridiculous.

Service is okay in the streets but weird thing is that service is never steady. It changes rapidly when i get into buildings. There is no service in buildings while my boyfriend with an AT&T phone has excellent service.

The reception is good throughout however once you get into buildings reception is weak or none. If you want a service which is good throughout AT&T would be the one.

I've had a Sprint phone and lived in the area for almost a year, had pretty decent reception with my older phone and even better with my newer phone. It's not perfect, but calls come in and I have steady reception. Sprint PCS is ok in this area. As is Virgin Mobile, which was my phone before that, and which I believe also shares Sprint's network.
