The coverage in San Francisco is great with a few exceptions. Inside buildings with thick or concrete walls, reception greatly diminishes. The city is mostly covered with LTE and you do fall back on 4G HSPA+ which is still speedy fast.

Sprint has the worst coverage, and the worst customer service to deal with the fact that their network is sub-par. Sold as a competitor to other networks, I was deceived and wound up in a two year contract of poor service. I would not recommend Sprint to anyone.

Walking around the Lower Haight the signal is mostly weak; unable to update weather; cannot use GPS, No Data; calls are constantly dropped. I also live in the Lower Haight and I used to receive a strong signal in my apartment, now I barely have a signal. Since my contract is over I'm switching carriers. Bye Bye sprint.

I was with Sprint since late 90s, and their voice and data service has dropped to terrible in last two years. Sprint no longer provides dependable mobile phone services for San Francisco Market! The only thing dependable about Sprint that you can count on is having continuous dropped calls and non working GPS if using your phone while driving in and out of City. What's worse is that Sprint customer service, field service and Executive Office escalations will tell you they apologize, they'll research and then do nothing. If they call or email back, they have no remedy to offer... they just recite the same empty script. Sprint makes Smartphones Dumb!

Voice reception and data are horrible. 4 bars on 3G Or 4G means nothing as voice calls are dropped constantly or very choppy. Apps such as Facebook and Instagram or visibly slower than both AT&T and Verizon when compared side by side. At least twice as slow. Unlimited data means nothing with horrible reception. I'd rather have limited data that is much more reliable. I can't wait to till my contract is over! DO NOT USE SPRINT FOR YOU MOBILE PHONE SERVICE.

I do have a pretty good reception throughout the city with the exception of the Laurel heights area as well as the Delores Park area. The data speeds however. Even with full bars is slow as hell. Unusable for streaming. 4G has been slower than 3G once was. 3G speeds, ridiculous. Mps =.0 something.

Varies by the second. Never above 3 bars. Often 1.

I can't get data in the house at all (and sketchy voice service, but at least there is some). Outside in the park, I can't get data about 75 percent of the time. None. Not just slow, but none. On the top of the hill at 21 / Guerrero can suddenly get service. Bottom of the hill, it's gone. Which means obviously that it is not a "traffic" issue for Sprint, it is a cell tower problem. They simply don't have coverage for most of the hi-tech capital of the world. You'd think that they would at least here for PR purposes, but apparently they're so on the edge of bankruptcy that they can't even operate a modern cell phone company here.

I have had Sprint for 15 years. Last 2 yes have been absolutely horrendous. Data speeds terrible if you even can get it. Dropped calls or no calls regularly over last 3 months. Customer service socks always giving generic responses ie : we are working on towers in your neighborhood and sending msgs saying how they are improving service when it is actually much worse. Service is terrible from my house thru Skyline and along 280. Will be.changing companies as soon as I find one that works. Do not get Sprint
