Sprint
I should have looked into Sprint's coverage before signing up. I chose Sprint when I bought my iPhone 5 because of its unlimited data plan. The phone reception here is poor. I can make and receive calls but it is difficult to hold a conversation because it keeps breaking in an out. You know the person is talking but you miss one out of every few words. Data is, surprisingly, quite reliable, but only 3G. I do not get 4G here yet. But I have a WiFi hub at home so it doesn't really matter. So far, I don't have much complaints using it when travelling around the cities, but I work from home so it is a real inconvenience to have such poor coverage. Please note that Sprint's on-line coverage map shows coverage in most of New Brighton as "fair". Not that fair is a nice way of saying poor coverage. You'll have a bar, maybe two or sometimes three, but more often then now, your call quality will be terrible on Sprint in the New Brighton area.

Poor signal throughout my house. It appears other networks have better signal here.

No reception at all. Phone sits on "no service" all day when inside building.

Conversations are so chopped up as to be unintelligible at times. Calls are dropped. I always ask the caller to call back on my land line.

In doors signal is absolutely garbage. Once out side its a tich better. But with how heavily populated DT is we need another tower CLOSE badly, 4G signal is terrible...

I am thinking about switching providers because I hardly ever have good or perfect service in minneapolis.

I'm lucky if I get one bar when I'm at home, even if I stand outside on my deck. I rarely get text messages on time or sent when at home. Just a mear seven miles away at work and my phone works great.

I turned off my 3g service and improved the signal slightly. This was not been fully tested though, stand by!

All kinds of terrible. Calls dropped every few minutes. Sometimes I don't get text messages for hours. Switching to Sprint next week.

Since the May 22nd Tornado, calls in progress are getting dropped all the time. Reception is good, but in the middle of a conversation, the calls drop. My friend was using his new LG phone, carrier Tracfone, but powered by At&T. Maybe this is the problem, the tower wasn't replaced or maybe the one that services the area needs to be stronger. My friend's main complaint is when he enters his home, his calls are lost. Perhaps this report / comment helps. Thank You. Sincerely, Cherie J.
