Cell Phones
Jun 10th, 2009 | By Robby | Category: Reviews
Today I would like to discuss cell phones and why/how, all major cellular companies can claim they have the largest and best network. I mean really, they all say the same thing. So who is really the best? Verizon claims to have the largest network but AT&T and Sprint have been around way longer so how can they be bigger? I don’t know, maybe they have money coming out there rear and bought a bunch of satellites, who knows.
Today I would like to give my opinion, and this is just my opinion. I’m no cellular pro but I’m going to give you my personal opinion from my experiences with these companies. I have had all 3 cellular companies lately and have tried out a couple more so here is my opinion.
Sprint
I would have to say I personally like Sprint the best. I have done a lot of travelling in my day and have never had a problem getting a signal with Sprint.
I live in Indianapolis Indiana, and I took myself and a few friends that had Verizon and AT&T with me to some small towns surrounding the Indianapolis area. North, south, east and west of the city I had no problems with Sprint. South and east of the city AT&T did not get a signal but Sprint and Verizon did. Traveling north and west of the city Sprint and AT&T worked but Verizon did not.
AT&T
I would have to say as far as signal goes AT&T would be #2, in my opinion. And of course there is the iPhone, AT&T’s biggest hit. The iPhone is very powerful and popular. When it comes to phones and there capabilities, there is no comparison to the iPhone , imo.
Verizon
Not really a fan… They have some decent phones but as far as signal, Verizon had the most problems for us when we were outside of our city. Plus if you don’t have the best credit, Verizon has the largest, most ridiculous deposits.
I traveled to Florida last summer and I had a Sprint phone and my girl friend had a Verizon phone. I had signal the whole way, never lost it once that I noticed but my girl friends phone was out of range unless we were close to a major city.
Revol
Give it up… I can’t stand this company. Their phones are garbage, you get no signal outside major cities and they charge you for every little thing they can. Like charging $10 to make a payment over the phone… come on, that’s ridiculous, or charging you to switch your phone over to a new one. I got one of these phones for my 11 year old daughter and it got stolen. Revol charged me a ridiculous fee to set up another phone on my account. So on top of having to buy another phone I also had to pay a BS $45 fee. Not something I wanted to do after replacing the stolen phone. I even explained this to them and they didn’t really care much.
So, as far as Revol goes, I would say only if you have too. I know a lot of people use them cause of the no contracts and deposits but other than that there good for nothing.
So anyway, this is just my opinion. If anyone would like to add there 2 cents feel free to comment below.
