I had Alltel before Verizon bought them out.I always had full bars now I'm lucky if I get 1.verizons excuse was" because of the merger thing could be slow for a month or so"well its been a year now so their solution is for me to buy a $250.00 signal booster... I don't think so

Reception not available in building, very spotty outside of building. Lots of people in and out of this building, frustrated by lack of signal.

Coverage here is terrible with 0 bars as the norm. Must twist head and / or go outside to even hear one word of conversation. From my other review, a tower here or even near Sliman Dodge on 58(Leavitt) could help solve this issue and the reception issue at Mullinax Ford area near new Turnpike interchange.

Generally good reception (3-4 bars) through out downtown area. Also have an Altell LG VX3200 that seems to get slightly better reception (4-5 bars) in the same area (personal vs. work phone).

signal strength with Verizon has went down the toilet, phone is worthless inside the house or the work building. signal strength outside is 1 bar if you are lucky. have compared Alltel sided by side signal comparison at work near lake avenue and lowell street and Alltel will have 5 to 6 bars signal and Verizon will have between 0 and 1. do your self a favor and stay far away from Verizon !

Sanyo 8100 is considered a good phone with Sprint. But I do no have any reception here. I am considering to switch to Verizon but doubt if that is any good!

The Sheffield Center area is very poor and the area immediately south (Elyria Township N. Murray Ridge / West Ridge / Dellefield Rd. area reception is very poor. 1 bar outside, nothing inside the government buildings in that area.

Poor reception on 57 South, 303 North, Avon by the Fire Department, and Rt. 10 by Jvs.

Zero to one bar at the house, and most times doesn't even ring on incoming calls. I put it on the kitchen table and called it from the land line and listened to it ring but the cell phone never made a peep, and it kicked to vmail. I've had vmail's show up days late. According to sprint I'm in the coverage area but I'm not... nearest tower is 5 miles away and pointed north, I'm on the 'backside' so I'll get dropped calls, roaming while at home, etc. and there's nothing they can do about it. C'mon, it's a heavily populated area, not a farm in the middle of nowhere. Don't even think about these clowns.

Reception changes a lot on the t610 because I am waiting for firmware updates that change this, but for now it works well, even with a poor signal quality on the phone it almost works 95% of the time at the lowest, and I have only dropped one call so far. Works more reliably then Sprint did by far. =D Nothing will ever work in my basement though, that's for sure.....I swear to God they put steel in our walls, my wireless router even gets a bad signal. :-\

AT&T Wireless has served me well for over 4 years. Excellent service and coverage in Northern Ohio.
