Pixel reception reliability question

[Carrie Greicar]

I currently have a Note 9 on T-mobile network. I am getting horrendous reception inside my office building with this phone. (I know T-mobile isn't known for their awesome service inside buildings) but I am wondering if anyone has tried both Pixel and Note 9 and what they noticed? I am debating getting the Pixel 3 to see if I can improve the reception any.

I never had issues with mine but I'm on Verizon. The Pixel 3 may help but I wouldn't get your hopes up.

I have both and dont have issue with either one.

Is any carrier known for their indoor reception?

In any event, you'll be happier with the pixel at least haha.

Well my pixel 2 wasn't as good as my s9.
But supposedly the 845 gets better reception than the 835 that was in the pixel 2. Fwiw.

I went from Note 8 to Note 9 on T-Mobile and now I have full bars in my condo. On Note 8 I had 1 and no service in elevator. Now it works in elevator fine. I figured it was the Band 71 that has this improvement which the Pixel 3 supports also.

Did you use the same SIM in the Note 9?
