Per consumer reports Verizon is pretty much the best cell phone provider in terms of service and coverage area in most of the US major metro areas. They do cost more, but you get what you pay for.

I have had Sprint for 10 years.... I have'nt had a coverage issue except in Alaska. Even when I'm not on a Sprint network, I have free roaming. Best of all worlds.

Sprint's free voice and data roaming are unbeatable. There plans are really good too. I also have a talent of finding places where Verizon doesn't work.

I also think Sprint is more respectful of their customers, by way of things like not locking the GPS output in phones, etc.

I've been a Sprint customer since I was in high school (2004-2009) and I've had a few fights with them, but ultimately they've fixed the issues.

Gps is not locked in any new phones and they unlocked gps in many of the present models.

I'm also in Minneapolis and have been on Sprint since my first phone in 2001. Coverage is great in the MPLS/St. Paul area.

Sprint for the win...pocket the monthly savings!

Im currently a verizon customer, their coverage is exceptional. their prices are on the high side and i will be paying ETF fee's to jump on sprint. Why? $30/mo SERO Plan unlimited data/text, 500mins, etc. cant beat it.
