Coverage is great inside my house and out. Generally no problems with Sprint in Houston except near Houston Center on the east side of Downtown... goes to analog roam. Same thing happened yesterday in the new trench on US 59 just south of downtown, although towers line that stretch of freeway. That being said, I still have yet to experience a dropped call, although roaming can be pricey at 50 cents / min.

I'm a med student living / studying in the med center. My phone is always at max or near-max signal strength in the buildings here. I get great reception all around town. I think it's phone-dependent. I had a samsung phone 2 years ago, and I got very low signal strength in the same areas.

I had Sprint 3 years ago and got dropped all the time. I then went with T-Mobile and got decent, but occasionally scratchy reception. I never got reception in my house, tho. I have been on Verizon for a year and have never had a problem with reception anywhere in Houston, excepting when I am very deep in the bowels of a metal building. Verizon has a tendency to make "mistakes" in their favor, on their bills, and God help you if you go over your minutes! They also won't tell you that, if you don't want to pay for text messaging, that people can still text-message you, at your cost, unless you also turn that feature off. One learns as on goes... Basically, Verizon is the best reception in Houston. They are also, by far and away, the most expensive. Their "nites and weekends" are also the shortest and tricky. Hint: If you check your messages from a land line, you don't use up your minutes, like you do when you check from your cell phone.

Reception can be a little hard to find in some areas, but only on rare occasions. Otherwise it's great. Anywhere in the city has good reception.

I just switched from T-Mobile to Cingular and now get reception inside my house and outside. In fact the areas where T-Mobile reception was spotty and poor is now perfect with Cingular. I get reception in my parking garage and the building elevator, just excellent reception overall. Very pleased.

Switched to T-Mobile a few years ago since Sprint seems to lose the signal in my house. My friends who currently have sprint have also switched to T-Mobile because of reception problems in the Heights area.

Reception is enough to hold calls most of the time while out. Okay in my office building in Clear Lake but awful at home. Often get dropped calls.

Live near Clear Lake, very poor recpetion. About 1-2 bars at home, 0-1 bars downtown (Houston Center One and Two) Full bars but static at Chimney Rock, Westheimer Area. Service was great until switched to GSM. Now thinking of switching to Nextel.

It was good until I switched to a GSM plan. After that I rarely got reception and always get dropped calls.
