Best Phone for Reception?

We are also at the edge of ATT reception but have had mostly okay reception. I was the only one in my family with my original phone, a Samsung Sync (I think that's right). I've really liked it even though it didn't have the qwerty keyboard that most of the new phones have now. My other family's phones flaked and they got cheapy prepay subs to finish our their contract. After our contract expired, we agonized over what to do, finally decided on Samsung Impressions. We bought 3 of them, were excited, came home and not a one will work. We just get a NO SERVICE screen. I'm wondering if any of the new ATT phones will be better. I can't understand why our cheaper phones would work and these totally not at all. Is there that much of a difference between phones?"
 
I own a V9x and get good reception almost everywhere but I believe my old V3xx was the best. My wife still has a Samsung SYNC and drops calls in areas I never had or have problems with.
 
Hands Down! For the best cell phone reception get a Sony Ericsson Z520a. It's a little bit dated now but it's reception blows away anything that's out there. I've tried many cell phones from motorola, nokia, and sony ericsson and the Z520a is the only reliable phone when you need it most, especially in remote areas.

it is sad that my phone is one of the more expensive, BB Bold 9700, and has horrible reception in a otherwise 3G laden area. I called att today and their "fix" was to send me a new sim card...doubt it will actually do anything.
