Would like to know if anyone else has had problems with reception???

Thanks,

Hi,

May I suggest you to remove the silicon case that you (might) be using? I had bad reception too till I removed it.

The phone seems to suffer from some kind of resonance effect due to the polycarbonate unibody construction.

This is quite interesting because usually the N9 is regarded as the phone with the best reception thanks to its polycarbonate unibody.
I don't think that's true, though. I think it's quite on par with the N900, maybe slightly better, but not much.

At work, we have a special office which need to be protected against electromagnetic fields as we have huge power machine nearby. In this room, thers is only a few phone which still work ... from time to time. One of them is my old Nokia E52 and the N9 is the one who gives the best results.

Yeah it's weird because early on it looked so damn promising

I want to see some hard-core technical comparisons/data soon.
Hopefully we can do them in that thread eventually.

Preferably against other makes/models...
Don't really wont to turn it into yet another N900 Vs N9 thing.
But whatever people have to compare is fine.

You don't see much difference between most devices in areas with good receptions, but in fringe areas, I've experienced the following with the N900, the N950, and the N9.

N900 no dropped calls, but occasionally dropped internet connection.

N950 often losing the carrier network completely soon after having touched the device. A useless brick in a fringe area!

N9 no dropped calls, but seldom dropped internet connection. A little better than with N900.
