I don't have any problems with signal strength and quality using my Galaxy S9+ Exynos, it's pretty on par with my Xiaomi Mi 9 that has a snapdragon processor and modem. What coverage issue have you experienced with Exynos?

yes, I mean signal strenght , and it has been tested in spanish ( from Europe) reviews, exynos s10 sd vs exynos model and many users reported that exynos manage coverege with less strength than SD, I've had Xiaomi SD mobile and s10+ exynos. there's no doubt about it, I have experienced it, despited the fact that many users go unnoticed about it.

Galaxy S9 WiFi available signal drop and strenght lower than S5

I have S9 G960F. After searching available wifi signals, some wifi lover wifi 2 or 1 dash is droping and losing. I'm put Galaxy S5 and Galaxy S9 on my bed, and search for available wifi..After finish search, Galaxy S5 is find 7-8 available wifi signals to connect, but S9 only 3 wifi, and 2 wifi after few second they lose, and then after a few seconds, they come all the way..
Settings/Wifi/Advanced/Wifi power save is OFF
Are you using a case on the phone? Some cases do degrade the signal a little. I haven't experienced it with the S9 but my previous Honor 8 lost a lot of the signal with the case I was using on it.

Return the phone, sounds like a hardware fault, maybe loose antenna

Network strength difference on S10+ vs Pixel (or others)

Hi,
Bought S10+ in INDIA yesterday however i saw low/less network bars hence i checked the signal strength for comparison.
To my surprise, this was a known bug on "some" S10+ hence i should request for a replacement from Samsung but i need to be sure before Samsung acknowledges. No call drops recorded as of now.
I get -78 to -84 dBM on Pixel while i am getting -81 to -91dBM on S10+. (using same location for comparison)
Also, i used to get LTE on my PIXEL XL and now i get 4G sign on S10+
Does anyone compared the network strength with their old phones or am i the only one facing this network issue on S10+?

Do you see any improvements post updates?
Regarding the LTE and 4G symbol, that's probably because India doesn't have real LTE yet. It's basically glorified HSPA+ and carriers are bsing everyone.
Here in the US I get LTE, but when I took this phone to New Delhi, India and popped in my Vodafone Sim card, I only received LTE in parts of New Delhi (speeds up to 40mbps/40mbps), other parts it was 4G (speeds up to 10mbps/2mbps). So that's that regarding the symbols, pixel probably didn't have a differentiation between either connections and labeled it as LTE.
Download LTE Discovery, it will tell you which exact bands you are connected to, you can pop your sim card back into the Pixel for comparison.

Cellular strength and throughput

We know how much you like to stream, ahem, "videos", and so cellular data is mega-important. Rate this thread to express how you think the Samsung Galaxy S11's LTE performs. A higher rating indicates that it's fantastic: throughput is excellent and signal strength is top-notch.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add.
depends
It depends where you are meaning your locality.
I have better connection than what I had with s10+!

I don't think they get it. If your part of town does not get high speed internet than no matter how fast your phone is, it will only be as fast as the actually service is. Case in point. I just moved to another part of town and sign up for high speed internet, supposedly up to 100mb a sec. My son's Playstation showing only 6mb a sec. So I check with a tech for the service I use and he verified what my son's Playstation was showing, 6mb per sec. That it.

Mobile data problem
I am using mobile data all the day , but I face big problem , always data change from 4G+ to 4G then H+ then E.
I face it all the day , is there any problem with my phone and if yes how to solve.
Using an unlocked version in the US, I get worse signal at work than I did with my previous pixel 4 XL and OnePlus 7 pro. Usually I get 1 bar maybe 2, which was same on orbits devices, however on this, I rarely can access the internet and forget even sending a MMS.
My experience is very good with signal strength and throughput. Better than the S10 it replaced.
it's all because of Exynos chip, signal strenght is very bad with exynos.
If i put my sim in Huawei P40 Pro i will get 4 bars, with Exynos only 1 bar.

Hi, you are correct. Yet not exactly. I will have full signal strenght at homeon my mate 20 pro and i could play hours of spotify at work on 4g with no problem at all. The s20 is only 2 bars at home and i cannot even thinking of playing spotify at work plus i use medium power saver all the time. The network optimization is really poor..
At home, using the same sim card for testing,
my old p9 lite has much better cell reception than my s20+ :/

Snapdragon duo vs exynos duo signal strength

Just recently picked up the exynos version for duo sim purposes. No issues except signal strength/reception .
I'm not dropping calls or anything but internet speeds are slow compared to everything Im coming from.
Does the snapdragon version offer significantly better signal/reception compared to the exynos? I don't care for oneplus/pixel devices so my dual sim needs are limited.
I'm getting 1-2 bars vs full. I knew beforehand I would lose some before purchasing.

Question A52S signal strenght?

I'm seriously considering replacing my moto G8 power with the A52s 5g.
I sometimes work in areas with low signal strength so I want a phone with decent antenna. Samsung traditional did pretty well in this area but I have seen some reports about poor signal with the A52 (none s version).
Most reviews claim that a52 and a52s is identical except for the updated soc. But a52s have lower sar values indicating better antenna.
So I would basically like to know how people experience the signal strength with the A52s?
I know user experience isn't scientific but I think experience compared to other phones could provide usable information, so any info would be highly appreciated...
It's not very good for me, not better than my old S4 and both haven't great signal strength (at my locations). Sometimes I haven't any signal in buildings that are high and have glass walls.

Thank you for replying. So your experience signal strength about equal to S4?

Yes, I would say it. But I can only promise this for my location and provider.

Hello, I got an A52s 5G, also come from an S4 I9505 and I'm amazed by this very fluid A52s, the signal capture is excellent, even in extreme conditions it keeps the signal stable, but it all depends on the operator and location, I'm in Portugal the coverage of operators here is good.
In the rest, the A52s doesn't disappoint for the range where it is inserted, very good screen, automony even in extreme use lasts more than a day, the gps is quick to detect, wifi, bluetooth, it works perfectly, in normal calls, video calls , social networks, and numerous other applications that I use so far 5 stars, the cameras are very good for those who are not very picky they draw pretty good spells, video is not something I use regularly, but it is within acceptable limits for this model, better just going to other more expensive ranges.
in the end it turns out to be an excellent phone for the price it costs in the mid-range.

That is nice to hear. It seems Portugal use same LTE frequencies as my country so antenna efficiency should be identical.
Thank you.
I have been using my a52s for 2 weeks and find the antenna quality average -just about equal to my previous phone a moto g8 power.
But the moto g8 had problems reconnecting when I moved from an area without signal back to a location with fine signal, requiring toggling airplane mode to regain a signal.
The A52s doesn't have this problem. So that is good.

Is it worth to buy this phone? It would be my first premium phone. Right now using 5 year old LeEco Le 2
I like it a lot!
It is pretty fast, battery easily last a day with 8 hours screen on time. (I'm a power user -on a normal day I stream tidal hifi and run google maps while driving 3 hours). 120hz screen is very smooth -my first high refresh screen so didn't really know what to expect. Compared to my previous phones from Motorola and Xiaomi everything just seems to work out of the box on this Samsung. And because of the physical similarity with regular A52 accessories like screen protector and cases are very easy to purchase.
Only slightly negative is Samsung's apps -I'm used to google contacts, calendar and calc. Samsungs browser is kind of nice but the other Samsung apps seems pretty redundant to googles stock apps.
I wanted an affordable and snappy phone with dual sim (it serves double purpose as work and private phone), flat screen, 5g and plastic back. For me Snapdragon soc and water/dust protection was also "nice to have" features. So the A52S is pretty perfect for my usage.
That said I got this phone cheap (with a 6 month contract). If I had to pay full retail I probably would have kept using my (painfully slow) moto g8 power. I honestly don't know any cheaper phones that would meet all my demands...
Signal reception is good where I live, Sweden, Europe, for the A52s. I have tested it with some of the major networks and it does well on par with most other current models. I can't really detect any substantial, real-world difference between the newer phones. They all perform the same under the same circumstances.
I have the A52 5G (none s) version.. I'm with T-Mobile, and have absolutely no issues with signal strength.

In my A52s, GPS signal is little weaker than previous J5 2017 and wifi much weaker than J5 2017. And USB OTG don't recognized by phone. (That is check in Samsung Service).

Makes sense considering wave reflections on mirrors and attenuation because of the wall thickness/height.
