Verizon

5 Out of 5 (5 stars) | Rt. 18 and Crystal Lake, Akron, OH 44333 |

This tower is on top of "The Hill" in montrose and I think I can see it from Medina, The service holds all the way down to miller road, thats where it is weakest, about 1-2 bars, but then the next tower picks and you go up to four(The max on this phone) very quickly. The problem is that my house sits RIGHT on the coverage boundy of this tower and the I-71 and Rt. 18 tower, so my service is usually only about 1 bar in my house. There are abot 3 cell towers within 1000 feet of my house, so verizon, put a tower in the middle of your "Coverage Square" that has little or no service in the middle!

Alltel

5 Out of 5 (5 stars) | Portage Trail- at the Valley, Akron, OH 44313 |

I have service from Alltel, and I'm happy with my coverage. I haven't been able to find any other Alltel comments, probably because others haven't had reception problems. I get 5 / 5 bars where I live at Portage Trail in the valley. My phone has gone to 0 / 5 bars, in very few locations, but I can still make calls. I drove to Youngstown on I-76, route 224 in Canfield, route 11 to East Liverpool, Canton, and Steubenville. These areas have good coverage everywhere I've gone. However, the middle of nowhere in Carrol county doesn't have any service in a few spots. That's obvious why.

Great source signal from Verizon, and this Audiovox 8940 gets great reception, even inside buildings. I've yet to get the error msg of no signal present. Even when I have no bars, I still connect.

T-Mobile

4 Out of 5 (4 stars) | Cleveland-Massilon | Copley Rd., Akron, OH 44321 |

I have to agree with the previous comment: lousy reception indoors at times. No signal along Yellow Creek. Ok overall, I wish I knew if a better phone, or better plan was actually better.

4 Out of 5 (4 stars) | Waterloo | 30th, Akron, OH 44314 |

I just got my T637 two weeks ago upgrade from T226 and I'll tell you it's like night and day. The T637 is tops in all the test fields.
