I sure hope the phone reception is better than my son's GalaxyS3. My arrive is not as good as my old Touch Pro 2 but his Galaxy is really bad. I will show two or more bars and have no problem with voice or data on my arrive and him right next to me can't call, text or data. When we are both on roam due to no sprint coverage if signal is poor same thing happens, so I hope the Ativ S Neo has a better radio or I will be forced into a different phone.
