Hello! Hoping there are some experts here. I need a new phone, and the G4 looks great to me! The catch is that I need it to have as good or better reception as my current Sony ZL. The G4 is supposed to be good in this regard.
I went into a store to compare the dbm with my phone. Unfortunately the G4 was consistently worse than my Sony by 1-10 dbm on both LTE and GSM. It was clear and consistent with the phones side by side. Is this a pretty solid indicator that it won't perform quite as well as my Sony? Thanks to any dbm experts!
