My work is a good coverage area, but my house is almost non-existent, and the phone won't make a difference. We need a tower here, which they are supposed to do in 2013.

Yeah I'm a pretty big guy, and my friends always made fun of me when I'd hold it up to my ear.

I love the S3, but a lot of people are bitching about reception on it.

I've had the S3 for a few months now, and have never had a problem with this. I've even been out in some pretty rural areas and have had service.

Sounds like something the mac fanboys would try to spread around.

what's your provider?


also, if you are only picking between those two, get the S3 because the note is too fucking big.
Nexus 4 isn't 4G capable... I do like that it's only $299 unlocked.

My s3 has great coverage. Only issue I have is when it's trying to get 4g, the 3g fucks up. But the 4G connects and I have porn porn porn!

Plus, I'm on wifi 90% of the day.

I thought that was only through gsm networks? Is the crooked fuckers at verizon actually going to do that?

The phone wasn't made with 4G capabilities.

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is still one of the top Android phones out and is pretty cheap with an upgrade. It's also the first phone running Jelly Bean. That could also be an option.
