Usually 3-4 bars. Quite a few dropped calls in the area. Doesn't work well inside the hospital.

Sprint not only has poor reception, but poor customer service!

I get a great signal wherever I go in st. louis. Having used both Sprint and Cingular in a lot of the same locations My v551 phone works much better in more locations than Sprint ever did. Also my battery lasts a whole lot longer {some thing to consider if you are the type that talks a lot and forgets to plug in their phone at night}

Absolutely no reception anywhere on South Campus, except for one or two spots on the front lawn where 2 bars can get obtained. The most frustrating thing of all is that the phone reports full service until I actually dial, then the bars drop to 1 or none, leaving me with a one-way or choppy connection when the person answers.

I have gotten consistently good service from T-Mobile and this phone. I occasionally run into some dead spots, but if I lean the other way, I get my service back. All in all, a great phone and carrier!

Signal is consistantly good at my house, and pretty much all over St. Louis. The only place I have problems is in my interior office building at UMSL. Even outside coverage is not great on UMSL campus. But, overall, I'm very happy with Cingular reception and plans.

I live adjacent to Monsanto's World HQ and according to Cingular, there are 3 towers within a couple of miles, but regardless, although I am near a window on the second story of my house, at best I only get 1 and sometimes 2 bars. When I had Sprint, I had 4 bars as a minimum. So much for effective blanket coverage of a major area.

i'm on a 1st floor of a condo unit on west pine i've always had a crystal clear signal with Cingular, 4-5 bars it probably helps that my condo is not made out of a brick, its mostly windows / wood / siding

Recently upgraded to a Razr and reception improved considerably. Dead spots in my home and dead areas on my drive home (afternoon: Olive-Spoede-Conway) disappeared. Very pleased with phone and service. Remember, these are not land phones.
