Sprint coverage, 2 bars!

The Mogul is a 3G phone. With CDMA you don't need full bars to have good/great call quality/data speeds.

 

Mogul came out in 2007 i think, im so glad i quit sprint tech support this week no more troubleshitting

 

I wish the phone's real signal strength meter was easier to access--the one that shows the true strength reading in dB, versus the often-misleading bars on the front display. That information is usually buried in diagnostic screens, if you can get to it at all.

I rarely "count the bars" to determine signal strength, since those meters aren't consistent from one model to another If someone wanted to program a phone so that any strength at all produced maximum bars, they could.

As someone already said here, if you have a signal at all, the quality will be the same.

 

Bars mean nothing. I've been smack in the middle of full bars calling people in the same full-bar area just blocks away and not even gotten a dial tone or had the call go through. I've been at two bars and had perfect connections.

What I've come to learn is that coverage maps and bars reflect possible coverage, not actual coverage.

 

Only thing it could affect is battery life. But since your gonna be at home just keep it plugged in...
