Even though our building is 3 blocks from Columbus Circle, I get terrible reception on my iPhone, to the point where I need to stand by the window in our apt to take calls. Overall, I have had a pretty dismal experience, anywhere in NYC, with the AT&T service required of all iPhones. I love the iPhone as a device, but really miss my Verizon service. Guess you can't have your cake and eat it too...

Very good voice quality. Data isn't as great as it should be.

Voice is okay, Data is painfully slow. Must be near a window.

lousy, fluctuating reception, but often none at all on and around campus

Generally I have no problems with reception at all anywhere in the neighborhood or in my apartment with the exception of one room. Also work in WTC area and reception is excellent everywhere in the area.

Dropped calls and hours of my phone "searching" for service but never finding it.

perfect reception with a phone service originating from las vegas.

Outdoors on the sidewalk there are 1-2 bars, sometimes up to 3. But in our 4th floor apartment there is barely enough signal to send a text message when you are hanging out the window. It has been a hellish year living with a phone you have to go outside to use. When I hear my phone ring and see who it is, I am filled with rage that I can't answer the call. Verizon said there was nothing they could do, so we're both switching to AT&T. I hear Verizon is better in general but I need my phone to work where I LIVE.

I cant believe how bad AT&T sucks here. I am in the 10th floor and dont get any reception in my office, which located not very far from the window. Verizon has better indoor and tunnel coverage and also in the boroughs. these stupid guys that do the engineering there must go back to school. it was much better last year..

Reception is only intermittent in building. Most of the time there is no reception on my floor. Have had the same experience with other phone models, so this isn't a phone issue.
