Cell Phone Reception Has Improved In Denver, Studies Show

DENVER, CO -- Have you noticed your cell phone reception is better in Denver lately? Two independent cell reception testing groups have confirmed that cell coverage has boosted for major carriers AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon in the first half of 2018.

RootMetrics found Verizon the clear winner late last year in their independent test of overall cell phone performance based on separate scores for network reliability, network speed and performance of data, talk and text. But so far this year all four carriers have improved, according to RootMetrics. The rating group's best overall performance award was shared by both T-Mobile and Verizon for the first half of 2018.

A second testing group from PC Magazine told Denver Post tech reporter Tamara Chuang that overall all four carriers are competing pretty evenly in Denver.

“I’ve been seeing pretty consistent service in terms of reliability for all four carriers so far,” PC Magazine reporter Angela Moscaritolo said. The PC Magazine's ratings will be released in mid-June.
