Default Anyone have a iPhone with verison?

Ok I went snow sking in ruidoso this year and my phone (iPhone 3GS) got no reception and my friend has version and a droid and had full 3G. Then went to the mile and I had no reception and my friend with version had full 3G! Ok I was talking bout goin to version when the new iPhone comes out but was told that the iPhone on version would suck also! I guess saying that it's the iPhone that has reception problems! So has anyone compared a iPhone with version service to a iPhone with att service?

My fiancee had a iPhone with At&T and it never got service, and now she moved to Verizon and has the Iphone 4 and gets service everywhere she didn't before and then some.



But iPhone's are gay, so get the Thunderbolt, or go to sprint and get the HTC Evo 4g that what I got and love it compared to the Iphone4 or 3gs

Im thinking about getting the thunderbolt myself! When i spoke to a guy at verizon he said something about the apps for the iphone you would have to buy off apple.Unlike a verizon phone you can get free!

those have a life span of 3-6 months before something always goes wrong with them.

word on the street is no iPhone 5 in june.

My brother-in-law has the iPhone 4 with verizon and it's nice, but it's so much slower then mine with at&t. if you do some study the online reports say it's twice as slow as the at&t one.

I've never had a receptioin problem with att until last weekend when I was at Sea Rim State park. But no one had reception there so don't really care.

Like I tell everyone, buy the phone you like, and the carrier that works where you spend 99% of your time. Who give a **** about the one time in a blue moon you go somewhere. Do you really need to have service?

Yeah...this post about sums it up. I'm not going to switch to the carrier that will get me good reception at the bottom of the grand canyon or in a cave....I just want one that works where I'm always at.

EVO 4G is a beast, and the new EVO 3D will have a 1.2 ghz dual-core processor and will be faster than your first sexual experience.

Well spoke to couple different ppl and its suppose be released this summer some time . I could care less for a iPhone I'm waiting.to.see what the verision Bionic looks like. And like I've read in reviews b4 comparing a iPhone to the.thunderbolt is like comparing a 360 to a ps3!

I have the iPhone 4 with Verizon.I also have the driod x.yes the x is a bigger phone my iPhone gets better reception than the x.I tried the thunderbolt out for a few days and I didn't like it either 4g is limited to certain areas so it's a waste of money on a phone that don't always have 4 g and when it's in 4g your battery goes quick.

I am selling my iPhone 4 it a month old like new with screen protector and hardcase if interested I have it in the classifieds or Pm me.
