Am I the only one that doesn’t find AT&T’s reception to be all that bad?

  No you’re not. This same cartoon could be made for Verizon, Sprint, T-mobile whatever. Basically, haters are gonna hate.

  No…I have not been disappointed in the 5 years I’ve been using AT&T. Considered switching but had no reason to. I dunno what the deal is.

I’m sorry, but here on Kauai, AT&T is absolutely horrible. Even with a replacement iPhone4 that has vastly improved reception over not only the previous iPhone4 it replaced, but over most of the iPhones I’ve used, it’s pretty bad—at least 3-4 dropped calls a day.

Depends on what area you live in, and what strength of signal is coming from the towers.

  True. I should clarify my above comment: this is on Kauai, where it’s known that we have bad receiption. Of course, T-Mobile is even worse here, and Verizon is only slightly better than both of those. I still vastly prefer AT&T to Verizon as a company, though.
