I think this question is very subjective as there are many variables but I can say that I get great reception wherever I am at, even indoors and out in the boon docks.

The reception is Sprint 3G, which is to say, bad. I just came off an ATT contract and the 4G was so much better. My wife was on a 3G Blackberry, and the speeds were WAY better than Sprints 3G. Despite this though, the LG is still dated in almost every way unrelated to reception. Don't get me wrong, it's an OK, but I think it should be a lot cheaper given its age.

This phone is great, reception wise. It replaced an HTC One V. Loved the HTC but reception was horrible. I highly recommend this phone.

Depends on where you're at. Big cities, it's fine, but if you live in the country, don't bother. Check your area on Virgin Mobile's coverage map.

Reception is good!!! I like it a lot :) My only problem is the phone has minimal storage and some things do not transfer to the card.

The one good thing about this radio, is its reception. I live just outside a metropolitan area and have had no problems AM or FM.

The reception is outstanding. I get similar, if not better reception with my Sangean radio than with my car radio. Most of the time I don't even extend the antenna to pick up my favorite stations.

Reception is excellent in my area (I live in the city with tons of interference). The battery lasts around 5-6 hours on mp4 playback. Never had it solely on radio

Yes, it is. You tune it by turning the knobs and reception is good. It' not heavy.

Hi. I find that some days the reception is better than other days. Today, the reception is perfect. I would keep it plugged in and see if the reception improves and then you would have to accept that on some days you will have bad reception (which I know will be annoying).

I am more than 25 miles away from a tower, and I live in a heavily wooded area The reception I have gotten has been good. However, it does change if the weather is bad. If it is stormy or windy, reception is greatly affected. Also, as I said in a previous post, my antenna HAD to be on on outside wall. The best reception came when it was at a window. And it did vary from position to position in my home. Some locations did not work well at all even at window locations. I think if you are within 25 miles or so, you probably won't have any problems with this antenna.

Yes. In fact, I am currently using it outside of US and the reception is very good.

For the most part reception for me has been fine. Sometimes when near a deadzone in my vallwey it will get fuzzy, but upon my mountain I have good reception.

Yes, with the plug in antenna the FM reception is good. However, AM is terrible.

The reception is awesome........I Luv the look & style of the radio, the reception is good on both FM & AM stations. I would recommend other in buying this brand

For the cost and the size of the unit the FM reception is really good. The only problem is that there is no antenna so you have to use the headphones that come with the unit to get the best reception. I work in a rural part outside of Atlanta and I work in a metal booth that is totally inclosed. I have had reception issues with other headsets and this is by far the best. Hope that helps

Absolutely! We live in rather remote area and have no problems at all with reception. We also love to travel and have had great luck with reception where ever we go.

I bought this phone in the states and brought it in Italy. I've never had a problem with reception out there. Back in the U.S., I live far away from a cell tower and still receive good reception.

The FM receiver is good, but reception is going to be more a function of your FM antenna. I have a large, omnidirectional "S" shaped antenna which, in the over-radio'd Charlotte NC market pulls in a station on almost every frequency -- even WNCW, the popular non-commercial station from western NC.
