Sprint Seeking to Replace Forsee
Market saturation

🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 To bad for sprint..hahahah they do suck indoors just like shock said..back to verizon i went.
That's wonderful for you, but for others, Verizon would be a poor choice. Why? NO COVERAGE! When I had VZW, I had one, maybe two bars inside my house, and at work- Forget about it!
Verizon stinks indoors where they don't have adequate signal strength, just like Sprint, or any other wireless carrier. Verizon works for you? Great! Not for me, so, no thanks!

You think that the main difference between the two carries is superior call centers???? Are you serious, thats absolutely laughable.
Considering the fact that both carriers use CDMA, and roam off of each other, then, yes.
z34007 said:
You have a very simplistic view of this. While having good call centers certainly assists, there is much more needed. If it was only the call centers, they why hasn't Sprint changed their call centers? If it only took one think to turn a company around, why wouldn't they do it?
That's a VERY good question.
My experience has been that large corporations often can't see the forest for the trees! They seldom, if ever, ask the customer what they think, or any of the employees that work for them, but instead, pull outside resources to explain to them why they are failing and what they need to do, which often doesn't work.
I think Sprint is FINALLY, starting to get the message. That's why the...

yes it is laughable, because if sprint's call centers were better, Sprint would have 50 million instead of Verizon.
A couple of my customers are Board members and upper level VP's of a Fortune 50 company and they switched from Verizon to sprint because in their nationwide and international travels (we're talking a 50-100 thousand air miles/year) they tell me Sprint has a better voice and data coverage area than anyone out there. No one even comes close. Especially not ATT or VZW. That's just what their opinion is though. Not that I believe it at all... :ro...

If Sprint has poor indoor coverage, so would verizon if their tower was in the exact same place
Wrong. Vzw uses the 850 frequency, which better penetrates buildings than Sprint's 1900mhz pcs network. Nice try.

Wrong again dumba$$!!! Sprint also uses the 850 band!!!

All phones accept different bands the only thing about that is if there are no 850 roaming partners that band doesn’t matter, and plus we are just mentioning about the 1.9ghz that Sprint has for its in-door (lack thereof) coverage. We are trying to say that since Verizon uses primarily of the 850 MHz band that they are better in doors than Sprint’s 1.9 GHz. That is 100% true.
It also depends on the market you're in. In my market, Verizon uses the 850 band, and their indoor coverage is horrendous! That is why I don't have them. Where I work, and several places throughout town, their signal cannot adequately penetrate metal buildings.
Markets, tower proximity, and other factors ha...

Obviously in different markets changes with indoor coverage and capacity but we are just saying on a nationwide basis of the difference in spectrum bands of Sprint’s 1.9 GHz and Verizon’s 850 MHz and who is better for in-door coverage.
True. I probably would be a Verizon customer, if not for the fact that overall performance doesn't necessarily translate into individual market performance.
I'm sure if we were to place two towers together, one being Sprint PCS, the other being Verizon cellular, made sure they were equal in height and power output, and used the exact same devices inside the same building in the same spot, VZW would outshine Sprint.
But in reality, towers are ne...

It just depends on the given network. If you were comparing 1 Sprint tower to another (1) Verizon tower then obviously the latter would beat out the former no matter if Sprint’s tower is bigger in height and more powered because 800/850mhz and its properties are better than 1.9ghz (when it comes to coverage and transmissions), however, with Sprint’s new Airave technology out there the above might change to Sprint’s favor.
I wonder if they got that idea from Nextel? Nextel, for years, has worked with businesses interested in their service on indoor reception solutions. Where I work, Nextel is KING because of roof antennas specifically designed to pull in their signal.
If the...

the primary band is the 1900, yes, but in the case that 1900 is unuseable/unavailable the phones automatically revert to the 850 band and use analog signals if needed
Many newer phones don't even have analog on them, since Sprint is releasing a lot of EVDO capable phones. So what you mean is that where Sprint has no native coverage (PCS only, since they no native 850 coverage), the phone reverts to the 850 digital band (analog only on phones that have it, and that the digital signal is that weak that it grabs the analog signal)on a roaming partner, if there is a roaming agreement with that partner.

Hell no Sprint is great excellent reception everywhere I go, and no commie ui 😁 😁 😁
