Wireless Service Reviews

In the last few years, the choice of wireless service providers has blossomed, and consumers must wade through the providers and options to balance performance and economy. To avoid confusion, boiling the choices down to the two companies with the highest customer satisfaction may help the decision-making process. This guide shows you how to use wireless service reviews to make an informed decision when choosing a wireless service provider.

Verizon Wireless

For years, Verizon Wireless has consistently been one of the best, if not THE best, reviewed wireless company. Today, customers delight in the best call quality, new 4G service and a huge selection of smartphones and tablets. PC Magazine, Consumer Reports and the New York Times all support this. However, Verizon Wireless can also boast it is among the most expensive cell phone plans. Adding unlimited data to a phone can cost up to 30 dollars, and mobile broadband can add another forty. Verizon offers outstanding service at a reasonable cost.

U.S. Cellular

U.S. Cellular scores almost as high in reviews as Verizon. Call clarity amazes users, and outstanding 3G coverage makes data downloads a cinch. 4G is not available yet, but that is true for many companies today. Also, the cost of U.S. Cellular dwarfs Verizon, and almost every plan offers free text, picture and calls, eliminating any worries about exceeding usage limits. One downside is that only 26 states have U.S. Cellular service. If a caller resides in the Midwest, great, but anywhere else, not so great.

Verizon and U.S. Cellular stand out as the two best wireless service providers, but many others exist. AT&T, Sprint, Cricket and Virgin Mobile also have positives and negatives. For those wanting the cheapest plan available, prepaid service offers the best rates (as long as data is not a concern). For anything else, consider choosing Verizon or U.S. Cellular.
