I’m looking for a new mobile phone for my wife and the must-have features are:

1) 3G (must be used with Three)

2) very robust signal reception

After the birth of our second son we moved downstairs in a cellar-like floor, with many windows but underground, so the signal reception is not that great. Different mobile phones had quite different behaviors in terms of signal strenght:

Nokia N93: 1-2 bars, overall good, but now broken

Nokia N95: unusable

Nokia N73: unusable

Nokia 6120: 1-2 bars, not bad but the N93 was better

Any idea on the best 3G mobile phone in terms of signal strength? I look forward to your comments and recommendations! It doesn’t have to be a Nokia, whatever brand is fine.

These days we are spending more time in our “cellar-like” floor where we have another living room and kitchen and unfortunately the GSM signal strength is very low there (we are below the ground). The cause is that our mobile operator works at 1800Mhz most of the time, much worse in terms of indoor coverage than 900Mhz.

That said, we realized that the Nokia 93 performs much better than the Nokia N95. The N95 is almost unusable with no signal 99% of the time. The N93 instead, seems to be much better, with 1-2 signal bars.

Did anyone have the same experience ? Any idea to improve the performances?
