Sprint
Great reception in Lansing KS, and everywhere for that matter

Have had this device for about 2 years. Have had little or no problems with reception. Have had no complaints anywhere in the Northland with it with ATT. I had a Sony prior and had reception problems and dropped calls in many locations with it.

For some unknown reason Sprint can provide an excellent data signal almost always an EV signal in my home. However; when it comes to a voice signal I am lucky to get 2 bars and calls constantly drop.

I drive all over town and have nothing but great reception wherever I go. It is very rare for me to lose a call or have things go garbled. Two years ago I had T-mobile. It was terrible.

I have had Sprint for almost 3 years now and have been surprisingly satisfied until we just move to our current location. I cannot get more than 2 bars in our home or on the porch. The strangest part of this is that I can get a decent reception after 1pm or so and can make my business calls without them being dropped. Very strange issue I have on my hands and will most likely purchase a 1900mhz booster for my phone (because it is cheaper than getting monetarily stabbed by sprint's contracttermination fee).

Signal was average up until july. Since then I'm lucky to get 2 bars. It is usualy 1 or none. This includes both mine and my wife's phone as well as three phones belonging to my neighbors. All are AT&T. Four are razors and one is a Motorola 557

Sprint not only has many areas north of the river in Kansas City that lack coverage but it's customer service is pitiful (see below). Don't even think about using the phone inside your home. You will lose the call within a minute of connection. Other problems are that most of the time when someone calls you, the phone will never ring and the call will show that it was "missed". Voicemails will be mysteriously "dropped" for no apparent reason so you will miss important calls. In addition, don't count on using the website to look at your bill. Half of the time the website doesn't work or is so slow your browser will lose the connection (this is on a high speed broadband connection, by the way). To top it off, they frequently screw up and / or just render your username and password useless on line so if you are "paperless" you may not see your bill for over a week at a time. The website will direct you to call a number at which customer service will cut you off and not be able to help you restore your username or password anyway. If you cave and decide you HAVE to have Sprint, then whatever you do, don't go paperless. Demand that they send your bill every month. Also check the bill very closely because there are often calls you are charged for that you have not made.

I could ask for better, but not for the price. I roam all over this area, into Kansas, down to 291 and 70, south to the triangle, north to the airport. And I haven't had a spot that I didn't have coverage. Not even up at Roosterville airport. I use these guys prepaid and I haven't had a single complaint about them for myself, my wife or my son. All 3 of us have the same model. Would I like to see 5 bars? Sure, who wouldn't. But I get 5 bars some times, have 4 most of the time, 3 most of the part that isn't 4 or 5, and 2 the tiny remainder of the time. That's plenty good enough for my needs, and it's a whole lot better than the Virgin Mobile I had that couldn't get 3 bars most of the time, even standing right outside the tower in Randolph. Next week my mom's is getting replaced, and you can bet I'll put her on their service, too.

Although I don't live in Kansas City I visit the KU Med campus on occasion and have decent service with Alltel in that area and any other area I visit in Kansas City. have never had a dropped call and the reception is pretty clear. as I believe most of the towers there are contracted through Verizon I would suspect their service to be good as well. I'm thinking of switching to Verizon soon for their 3G services. we'll see.

I never have problems. I love it. I hardly ever get any dropped calls.
