it says theres no at&t coverage in North Dakota... this map is obviously wrong because i live there and have at&t and i have a very good signal at the time..
this is sooo bias they even say at the end "comparison based on square miles. coverage not available everywhere" verizon covers the woods and abandoned farms where noone needs 3g i bet the guy with the iphone had same connection as verizon at the time
I sometimes hated those commercials when I use to have verizon before I switch metro and then AT&T bc it just stupid. Trying to get more costumers bc has more 3G coverage back then used to be phone signal now it's 3G speeds I'm happy to have AT&T as my new phone company since a 1 month I have AT&T and really happy with service and 3G speed.
and besides...does verizon have an iPhone?NO!?because apple trust ATT more than verizon...u know why?we could handle it...and verizon has crappy phones...you know why?because VERIZON SUCKS BALLS....ATT RULES!!!!!!!!!
@welocy...i know...but still...you can just go to network and turn off your 3g and keep it on the same level as any other phones...i do understand how important 3g is...but still...
nah man they had a lawsuit because verizon used "theres a map for that". thats how desperate they are. they have to use the other phone companies line against them in the gayest way possible.
so glad i live in a modern country , we have 3.5g signal in most of the country , ahahah , i get 4mbits download on my phone fuckers , HTC HD2 FTW with tmobile
I's say this NOT just because i work for AT&T but because its true...we have alot of customers comparing AT&T and Verizon and to tell you the truth...not everybody needs 3g and stuff...u have a phone because u call and text..not to watch tv or use the internet...at least not all the time...thats why pc's and televisions exist..AT&T is far better...far more established and fuck that verizon shit..AT&T rocks.this ad is fucking fake...3g..we have it..but we dont brag about it...get it?verizon shit
exactly man...and thanks for the support...i do understand how att's coverage may not be able to please others...but come on...this ad was the original ad...att's ad was just an answer to all these...i understand where your coming from but to tell you honestly...we at att can give u a wide array of service no one else could give and our representatives are far more friendlier..that's what im proud of and for me...AT&T is th BEST...period...
lol i like att. i got a BB storm and unlocked just to use on att XD if they have a phone i like i wait till it can be unlocked to get it.
Sucks tho that the signal isn't supported by some devices. like the Nexus. if it was i would totally buy one! but i like my iphone 3Gs. i always have 3g bars.
i compair alot at my work. people with verizon always have like 2 bars. i am always at either 3-5 bars.
thats good man...well we here at AT&T are continually working and doing our best to provide all of our loyal customers with the best service and continually working on our system to give all of our customer the best service possible and to tell you honestly..it may sound cheesy but we who work at our ATT customer service centers really do care about our customer...its like our emotions is attached both to the company and our customers as well.Thanks man...u have a great day..
Im a truck driver driving all over nothing beats AT&T .used to have VERIZON let them go cause your bill comes higher everytime.The reason is that they loosing a lot of customers switching to AT&T.Its all about WEST COAST coverage AT&T OWNS NOR CALI/SO CALI FUCK VERIZON little bitches map aint shit
Although the maps are JUST 3g, the maps look like standered coverage maps. Furthermore it apears that the at&t phone in the commercial is useless which supports this idea. Also, With that in mind, most people dont understand the diffrence between a 3g map, and a coverage map. In my opinion that is a form of false advertising, and Verizon should clairify. Although From an advertising standpoint Verizon did do an awsome job at walking that line between the actual message and the perceved message.
And idk if it's true or not, maybe someone can answer this for me: Did AT&T really spend most of their money (revenue shares and whatnot) to Apple to keep the iphone, all the while rumors buzzing about Verizon negotiations to get the iphone? They should've spent that to make their coverage better because there is a significant number of AT&T customers out there sick of having an admittedly awesome phone like the iphone, but having such crappy coverage on it. Lots of people switching out there...
VERIZON WAS SUED BACK IN DEC 2009 for making that ad, false advertisement,slandeerous,
VERIZON HAVE A HISTORY OF LAW SUITS i wonder why, MY THING IS IF UR SO CALLED THE BEST ( VERZIZON ) WHY U GOTTA LIE TO MAINTAIN UR CUSTOMER DATABASE, At&t never does, EXACTLY MY POINT EXACTLY/.
@playboyquan lol dumbass. The MAP is NOT false dude. Source? CNN TODAY said on its website that the ads are ACTUALLY correct and that AT&T does have a faster network. AT&T dropped the charges and didn't win shit because the ads again are true. Do more research before you fucking talk. ignorant.
wow, people are so stupid nowadays. The map on the commercial is for 3G coverage, not just coverage in general. You do not need 3G coverage to make simple calls and send text messages. Simply put, the map is fairly accurate.
To make things worse, AT&T went to court to try and make Verizon stop running this commercial, and the judge denied their request. Why? The map was right.
All AT&T did was bring attention to their crappy service.
And just in case you're wondering, yes I am on Verizon ;-)
you know, drawrbabe, i saw a post awhile back on gizmodo about how ATT was going against [violently] this commercial and gawking at the map they showed on here.
i'll have to find it and repost it. i agree with you, that map is a bit exaggerated. i live in CA, and get great service, use an iphone, 3GS. and i travel constantly. i've been really good thus far, whether it be nyc, midwest, or wherever.
I've been extremely pleased with my 3rd iPhone (actually each of the 3 generations) and with AT&T. Sorry. I would not want to change....especially to Verizon with their misleading ads.
Even if AT&T coverage was exactly the same as Verizon, ALL Verizon phones have a rake receiver that looks ahead for towers and ensures a smooth "hand-off" when changing towers. AT&T phones do not, which results in more dropped calls. Picture a NFL quarterback trying to hand the ball off in a football game while blindfolded. AT&T ran ad campaigns that claimed fewer dropped calls than any other US carrier - something ANY rep in a Verizon OR AT&T store knows is plain and simply put...impossible.
Oh man, the Droid really will be an iPhone killer, the first one. It's got a glass screen too, full QWERTY, better coverage, FREE turn-by-turn and voice commanded navigation, better camera that actually HAS a flash, an open-source OS that will probably have more apps than Apple will in due time, I could go on and on. Can the 3GS multi-task? I think not.
Hahaha verizon is gettin sued for this commercial by At!&t for this commercial for falsely advertising at&t's coverage. That's what they get for always trying to copy them. The iphone is often imitated but never duplicated.
They aren't falsely advertising their OVERALL coverage. They're showing AT&T's 3G coverage. There's a difference. All of Verizon's coverage is 3G. NOT all of AT&T's is.
Verizon is so much better then crappy att. Ive had both and verizon coverage is better. May not have the iphone but id rather be able to talk and hear people then worry about what cool apps i have. Bottom line verizon has the best coverage in the United States.
they are getting sued because they want them to take down the commercial... They law suit says it represents it as not having coverage in all the white area, but it is clear that verizon is talking about 3G coverage only. unfortunately, it is a pathetic attempt to hide the crappy coverage that AT&T offers... It is a fact and anyone who disputes it is clearly naive
Not even. The iphone will still win with it's huge variety in apps and how great quality the screen is. Not to mention that the screen is glass so it's much harder to scratch up than any other phone
I've used AT&T for YEARS now and besides about probably a total of five dropped calls in all those years, I haven't had a single problem out of them. Verizon gets NO service where I live (which is actually in red on the map, so that's a lie).
I couldn't be happier with my new Sprint service - I actually get service now and can make calls. Sorry, AT&T, but you lose. I will miss the iPhone dearly though...
Well, to me it is, especially since I never had any actual and steady 3g cell service where I live (in Los Angeles!). As far as customer service, AT&T wasn't bad at all, and Sprint seems to be okay so far.. No complaints yet. For me, cell service and price were the tipping point.
I meant AT&T and apple. Because apple is geting most of their money from AT&T buying the iphones. In other words, when Apple sees this ad they are going to say that giving the iPhone to AT&T was a bad idea.
You know the difference between my replies and the rest below me replying to me? When someone challenged my facts I brought out a site to prove it. For the final time, CDMA was created before GSM, and 3% of the cellular market uses CDMA. 3% of the world. The rest is at least GSM. Also, apple is making a TON of money off of being exclusive with at&t. In an economic recession, at&t and apple posted record profits. Now who's the moron? You are.
What's funny is that they had to copy the iphone app commercials to discuss one topic. Verizon's 3g cant do voice and data simutaneously. They dont mention that.
Actually, it's impossible to use an iPhone with Verizon. The iPhone is GSM, and Verizon's network is CDMA; they are physically incompatible. Unlocked iPhones are only good on other GSM networks.
CDMA (3% of the world still using this, means the phone is hackable)
I don't know where you get your information from 'still using' CDMA was developed by the US military and is newer than GSM. Why do you think its so prevalent in the American market compared to the rest of the world? & the phones being hackable, you do know that CDMAs inherent encryption guarantees better privacy for cellular phone users than GSM does.
AT&T Will be upgrading to 3.5G in 2010 , but Verizon will be upgrading to 4G LTE technology in 2010.
A CDMA Phone is no more susceptible to hackers then a GSM phone. Verizon denied the iPhone contract because it refused to let Apple do all of the support.
Could this just be foreshadowing? Could this be some kind of clue that the iPhone could be coming to verizon?? Is this verizon rip off way for the iphone to vetrzon clue i'm just guessing. To me it looks like a cheap foreshadow that verizon will have the iPhone. Instead there's an app for that it's theres a map for that. I'm probably not even close to correct but I'm just taking a guess.
And what, oh what will AT&T do if the rumors are true, and they lose their exclusivity deal with Apple-- which expires in early 2010? USAToday has already reported Verizon has been in talks with Apple since this Spring trying to pick up on that deal in the making.
A) at&t maps is totally correct visit their website :D b) Verizon does have the best and most reliable coverage out there! C) Verizon struck a great deal with Google so now there will be more awesome Anriod phones :D sad that at&t all it has is the iPhone once there contract is over with them im sure they will drop them like a hot potato! Anyways moe people prefer Verizon over at&t and they should. During last winter with the ice storms Verizon was the only provider that worked. Beat that at&t
Not sure how people feel on the east coast, but on the west coast Verizon rules!! Take away the one and only one thing At&t has over Verizon and they're toast! Want great service, get Verizon. Want a toy phone with poor network, go to At&t.
a) AT&T's map is wrong, and b) Verizon needs to show their EVDO rev. A map, since that's the only thing they have that touches AT&T's 3G speeds. Wait till they try to transition everyone to LTE and come out with the next "GAIT" phone. They'll be seeing red in the network for sure then!
That is EVDO Rev A map you retard. Go to there website. They would not be allowed to put it in a commercial with out being approved. Think before you speak and make yourself look retarded
Really? It's actually their "voice and messaging" map (their terms). EVDO rev.A is ONLY the dark blue parts on the "broadband and V CAST" map. Yes, they WOULD be allowed to put it in a commercial, and just wait for AT&T's legal team to fight it (which they are). Look at an actual map, and quit drinking the VZW kool-aid!
Uhmm, I'm not sure how you just got it to be their "Voice & Messaging" network. That map that they used in the commercial looks identical to the one on Verizon's website that says Broadband & V CAST as well as the Enhanced services map... Color really doesn't matter, they could have been using that color cause thats their main color, like blue is AT&T's.
I sure hope I go to Arkansas so I can get the full benefit of my non-iPhone Verizon phone soon... God knows I LOVE watching movies in Montana on V-Cast while I'm driving my cattle...
If only Verizon could have the iPhone, they would be the king of the market. Till then, they just have the best signal. I have both an iPhone and a regular Verizon cell for when I really need to have a phone. Sad, but true.
Verizon thinks its so Pimpin with their shit phones. Someone should smack their CEO and tell them he shoulda accepted the iPhone. I would have stayed on their network.

You know the difference between my replies and the rest below me replying to me? When someone challenged my facts I brought out a site to prove it. For the final time, CDMA was created before GSM, and 3% of the cellular market uses CDMA. 3% of the world. The rest is at least GSM. Also, apple is making a TON of money off of being exclusive with at&t. In an economic recession, at&t and apple posted record profits. Now who's the moron? You are.

What's funny is that they had to copy the iphone app commercials to discuss one topic. Verizon's 3g cant do voice and data simutaneously. They dont mention that.
kidwell61 2 years ago
Voice and data simultaneously? What sort of applicable use for an average consumer?
I have both an iPhone and am on AT&T. I was with Verizon for over 6 yrs, I regret the switch, but for me it is free, so it isn't that bad.

Oh, um, yeah, I posted on another video, but let's lay this out...
Verizon/Sprint 3G - Same speed as at&t 2G (EDGE) data
Verizon - CDMA (3% of the world still using this, means the phone is hackable)
At&t - 3G is about 5 times faster than Verizon's
At&t - Unveiling 3.5G network coming early 2010 in most major cities, expanding soon. Keep your eyes peeled.
iPhone - never going to Verizon. Verizon already refused to let it (app store) on it's network.
GG Verizon groupies. GG

LG Shine. at&t branded exclusive handset. (Other versions are available on network, but the shine is at&t's version, and it is UMTS/3G.)

Actually, it's impossible to use an iPhone with Verizon. The iPhone is GSM, and Verizon's network is CDMA; they are physically incompatible. Unlocked iPhones are only good on other GSM networks.

CDMA (3% of the world still using this, means the phone is hackable)
I don't know where you get your information from 'still using' CDMA was developed by the US military and is newer than GSM. Why do you think its so prevalent in the American market compared to the rest of the world? & the phones being hackable, you do know that CDMAs inherent encryption guarantees better privacy for cellular phone users than GSM does.

You are severely mistaken.
Verizon/Sprint 3G: 3.1Mbps
AT&T 3G: 3.6Mbps. NOT 5X Faster.
AT&T Will be upgrading to 3.5G in 2010 , but Verizon will be upgrading to 4G LTE technology in 2010.
A CDMA Phone is no more susceptible to hackers then a GSM phone. Verizon denied the iPhone contract because it refused to let Apple do all of the support.

Rexter730 2 years ago
Could this just be foreshadowing? Could this be some kind of clue that the iPhone could be coming to verizon?? Is this verizon rip off way for the iphone to vetrzon clue i'm just guessing. To me it looks like a cheap foreshadow that verizon will have the iPhone. Instead there's an app for that it's theres a map for that. I'm probably not even close to correct but I'm just taking a guess.

And what, oh what will AT&T do if the rumors are true, and they lose their exclusivity deal with Apple-- which expires in early 2010? USAToday has already reported Verizon has been in talks with Apple since this Spring trying to pick up on that deal in the making.

Just understand people that Sprint's "4G" is STILL in Beta. The WiMax that Clear and Sprint are using is 802.11e
The WiMax that WE want is 802.11m. Which is about to be certified. And it will bring us 100Mbps! Can cable or FiOS do that? No.

A) at&t maps is totally correct visit their website :D b) Verizon does have the best and most reliable coverage out there! C) Verizon struck a great deal with Google so now there will be more awesome Anriod phones :D sad that at&t all it has is the iPhone once there contract is over with them im sure they will drop them like a hot potato! Anyways moe people prefer Verizon over at&t and they should. During last winter with the ice storms Verizon was the only provider that worked. Beat that at&t

Techdude201 2 years ago
a) AT&T's map is wrong, and b) Verizon needs to show their EVDO rev. A map, since that's the only thing they have that touches AT&T's 3G speeds. Wait till they try to transition everyone to LTE and come out with the next "GAIT" phone. They'll be seeing red in the network for sure then!
snoopdarr1 2 years ago
That is EVDO Rev A map you retard. Go to there website. They would not be allowed to put it in a commercial with out being approved. Think before you speak and make yourself look retarded
TnVProfen 2 years ago
Really? It's actually their "voice and messaging" map (their terms). EVDO rev.A is ONLY the dark blue parts on the "broadband and V CAST" map. Yes, they WOULD be allowed to put it in a commercial, and just wait for AT&T's legal team to fight it (which they are). Look at an actual map, and quit drinking the VZW kool-aid!
snoopdarr1 2 years ago
Uhmm, I'm not sure how you just got it to be their "Voice & Messaging" network. That map that they used in the commercial looks identical to the one on Verizon's website that says Broadband & V CAST as well as the Enhanced services map... Color really doesn't matter, they could have been using that color cause thats their main color, like blue is AT&T's.

If only Verizon could have the iPhone, they would be the king of the market. Till then, they just have the best signal. I have both an iPhone and a regular Verizon cell for when I really need to have a phone. Sad, but true.

Verizon thinks its so Pimpin with their shit phones. Someone should smack their CEO and tell them he shoulda accepted the iPhone. I would have stayed on their network.
