I am in the Trial Period for both Verizon with a Thunderbolt and Sprint with an EVO...... I am not sure what phone to keep. I am not getting great 3G with either phone (maybe I'm expecting too much). I live in the Las Vegas area and can't leave for a camping trip for another month so I can't test the phones to see how the connections are when I'm camping.
Can you all please give me your experience with how both phones and services are working with 3G & 4G. I realize I will most likely only get 3G ( if I'm lucky )when out camping. I need to send one phone back and keep the other before my trial is up next Tuesday. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,AL
I have a friend who is a full time RVer. She has two phones, a Sprint and a Verizon. She has reported that the Verizon is getting service while the Sprint phone is a "brick"
As for 3G or 4G, I wouldn't count on 4G anywhere outside of very major cities for a while. We just came back from a trip and had 3G for most of the way between Fredericksburg, TX and Las Cruces, NM. There were a couple of places where we had 1X service (south of I-10) on Verizon but it worked fine for voice and the smartphone operated just great, which surprised me, so I'm assuming it would have worked for data, too.
