Note 4 signal strength

I was saddened to learn that on Sprint, you can't use their Spark Network (or LTE) with Voice at same time. So if you plan to use your phone online while talking, think again (unless you are on wifi). Seems like we regressed 5 years in technology with this "upgrade".
 
My Note gives me a consistent 3 bars of 4G Lte in the downstairs of my house, where previous Verizon phones have presented no service. Overall I am very impressed with the Note 4's signal strength on Verizon.
