3 Out of 5 (3 stars) | Windsor Rd. | Enfield, Austin, TX 78703 |

It's hard to say what average is, because all the carriers have problems. Acceptable? Barely. At home I have ok coverage, with occasional dropped calls and moderate quality. Around town, even on I35 going between Austin and San Antonio, I drop a lot of calls. Texts over take quite a while to come through on the phone. Usuable? Yes. Great? Far from it.

About half the time reception is non-existent for phone and data. Texts arive late and fail when sending.

I agree with comment below. Reception in Barton Hills is pathetic lately. This is pretty poor for a neighborhood so close to a downtown city.

What has happened to Sprint reception? In the last few months, I can't hold a conversation anywhere near my home. I am going to have to switch providers or never use the phone. I will be calling Sprint to try to rectify the issue... if I can get a signal long enough.

1 Out of 5 (1 star) | Del Valle, Near the Airport | McKinney Falls, Austin, TX 78744 |

Been customers for years, and always had great reception. We moved out near the airport about 2 years ago and have had intermittent service ever since. Not much longer!

Lots of hill where I live. 2 bars inside. I work at UT and inside my building it is 2 bars at best. Not sure if any other provider would be any better.

2 Out of 5 (2 stars) | Lakewood Dr. | Cascada, Austin, TX 78750 |

I have been with Sprint for over 10 years now, most of which here in Austin, first at Scofield Ridge and now in Lakewood. Sprint has gone through phases, but this is the worst it has ever been. 3G speeds are so slow I can't even browse often times, and dropped calls, blocked calls, calls that ring, but never show up in your phone (until you get a voicemail), poor call quality, failed text messages are common place more than ever now. I understand they are upgrading to LTE, but this is just very poor service. It seems every carrier has its issues, but I am hoping it will be better at AT&T or Verizon as I am heading there next. There is no way I am getting a new LTE phone and staying with Sprint... It's gotten bad enough that I am making an effort to shop around.

I've had Sprint for the last 10 years living in the same house. A year ago we started getting numerous dropped calls and Sprint offered us an Airave which worked fabulously. In the past couple of months, we understand Sprint did an "upgrade" in the area and now we get no signal in a 4 block radius of our home on our cells and our Airave no longer gets a signal. After being a long-term customer, we are looking at changing our carrier.
