Trouble is, you come across as an Apple Fanboy, and dear goodman is, without a doubt.

I remember my wife's iphone have poorer reception (wi-fi) than my phone, does that means iphone is worst? and the saga continues..... :P Thought I make it more interesting.....

as I was posting before, which obviously has been neglected, the reason iphone might have better reception could be due to it generating higher radiation to achieve this.

U is rather then have a useful discussion about pro and con of each phone.

But you never do that all you do is attack Android even answering questions that have nothing to do with the Google market in any shape or form with Google market is full of malware .
Sure you can say xx signal problem and find five thousands posts on Google complaining of the problem but not the twenty million who don't have a problem .

As to the actual network signal its often the phone does not have the best modem for the local area .

This is not directly relevant to the initial question, but the subject seems to have moved about a bit, so I'll put my halfpenny worth in.

My household has 4 Android devices - Sony Ericcson mini, LG Optimus One, Samsung SII and Samsung Apollo. Without a doubt, the SII is the top handset there, but it seems to be the worst for wi-fi connection and, in the car, picking up satellites for sat-nav app.

I don't have an Iphone, never played with one either and wouldn't even spend out for an SII or SIII because, to me, they just ain't worth it.

But why I chose Android as my operating system is that I have access to a number of manufacturers who give me all I need from a smartphone. I am interested in seeing how the Microsoft phones develop as coming from an era where all computers seemed to use different operating systems, Microsoft developed a common platform that has benefited virtually everyone.

When I read that Apple intend to develop a new interface that renders all the current accessories non-compatible (or until someone develops converters) I am glad that I chose Android.

But I prefer Androids that get a signal to Androids that don't !!

Whether a phone does or does not have signal isn't a matter of opinion; it's a hard fact!

You're making a flawed argument out of something that is flawed already.

I'm afraid you're not making much sense here. The SGS3 had no signal. That's a fact.

It's almost a certainty that the iPhone didn't either. Signal bars on handsets are wildly misleading, especially on iPhones since Apple adjusted how they are reported to make the 'death-grip' seem less of an issue than it is.

I didn't think you had either a 4S or S3? I'm just speaking from my experience. Its a hard fact that the SGS3 had no signal where the 4S did. That leads me to the conclusion that the 4S has better signal than the S3, especially as others seem to have expressed the same experience.

You're not able to say that with any degree of confidence because you are ignoring the data from within the handset that would tell you otherwise.

It's got nothing to do with incapable or not. Many uses have s3 and 4s write to express their opinion.

It certainly appears that way.

Same as a lot of data is available for malware on android but still some have express their opinion to say never had a problem. Are people saying that wrong?
If I was to send link to data showing malware numbers for Android on Google Play would you agree it's a problem sine supporting data is available?

Not relevant, try to keep on topic.

He had both phones on the same network in the same place, one had signal (the iPhone), the other one (SGSIII) didn't.

There can be no argument over which had the better signal in that particular situation in that particular place can there?

If a phone says it has no signal why does that need to be proved with more data?

No signal is no signal.
