Verizon or ATT?


I am trying to decide between the Storm 2 and the iPhone and to me one of the most deciding factors is going to the the provider. I have a couple questions.

1. Is the 3G map that Verizon constantly puts on their commercials true?

2. The guy at Verizon told me that you mostly run on 2G speeds with ATT because their coverage is so crappy. I take that with a grain of salt since it was a guy from Verizon telling me that.

3. If I hit the ENTER button on the iPhone and the Storm 2 at the exact same time to go to a specific website, which one would get there first?

4. I guess a better question for #4 is what service provider is actually faster?

5. What do you think? Who is the better service provider?

Re: Verizon or ATT?


Hi Andy to be honest I haven't really tried the Storm 2 but if you can a wait a few weeks I would wait for the Android phone to see what that is all about. There is no comparison when it comes to service, Verizon wins hand down. Now your gonna pay for that great service as far as money but it is well worth it. As far as the map it is accurate. I have never had a dropped call and I have always been able to make a call. I can not say that about some of my friends who have that iphone. Listen the Iphone is a very very user friendly phone but if the service is subpar then whats the point. When I choose a carrier my number 1 thing is service and Verizon wins hands down. I like their service so much I have their fios TV, Phone, and Internet.

1. Yes these are true maps as witnessed by this website Cellular Maps.com-3G Coverage Comparison:AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, US Cellular & Verizon

2. Yes when you are on at&t when not in 3g as supported by their map you will be running on slow speed

3. Launching internet at same time in 3g zones will produce like results, launching verizon anywhere and at&t in non 3g = verizon blowing at&t out of the water.

4. See #3

5. Verizon hands down
