Verizon
Verizon has great reception for me around 1st and Julian area. I saw T Mobile's coverage map and it looks like service is spotty around parts of downtown. I don't know much about Cingular though. Verizon's price is higher than the rest, but, I can't afford to have no coverage (I have no wired line).

Zero to 2 reception in condo, I have to leave building for any reception at all. In car reception can be from good to zero depending where you are driving. It seems reception is better west of Senter. Spotty on 101 or 280.

Choppy Reception from Cingular. Looking to swap carriers because the reception is so un reliable. The call doesn't drop but people cannot hear me and I cannot hear people.

May get 1 or 2 bars, but when I make a call, it either gets dropped or the other person can't hear me.

Unusable in apartment, not even ringing most of the time. Get two bars outside but signal strength is fragile, dropping calls if I take a deep breath. Pretty decent around the south bay in general, though. Just would be nice to be able to use my cell phone, you know, WHERE I LIVE.

I have had Cingular for 5+ yrs and have been pleased with the service, even though calls seem to drop at the most random places (101, 280, etc). After moving to a new housing development on Communications Hill, I have HORRIBLE coverage. I have called Cingular repeatedly to complain and the coverage is still JUNK!

Very poor reception in this area. No signal or dropped calls driving starting from San Felipe on Yerba Buena towards 101.

I get very bad reception in the Archstone Willowglen apt. complex. The map shows good coverage, but for some reason neither my husband (who uses the Blade) nor I (LG) get signal here. Sometimes we roam, other times we don't. Other that that signal is o'k, but never in any unpopular areas. My friends with Verizon and Cingular usually have signal where I don't. I have a contract with Sprint and they won't let me out because I don't get signal at home. I'm very unhappy with them right now because of that.

In my apartment my phone varies from having 2 bars to 5 bars in certain areas, but what matters is not how many bars my phone shows, but how the voice quality is - and I've never had a single problem at my apartment with calls. Not a single dropped call, ever. I really don't understand why people like to complain about T-Mobile coverage, I haven't had many problems at all in San Jose. I guess I just get lucky.

Almost non-existent in the house. Verizon slightly better. T Mobile bad. This is a dead area. Buyer beware. Check T Mobile site and you'll see bad coverage.
