I replaced my 4S on Verizon with the iPhone 6, also on Verizon. (The 4S has been a wonderful phone, but it was time . . . .) Where I was getting 3 bars of signal strength at my home with the 4S, I'm getting 2 bars with the 6. Both phones will occasionally drop one bar lower and back up again. Since I have no way of actually measuring the signal strength other than the bars, it seems that the cell reception is worse on the 6. I assume that the bars correlate to the same voltage at the antenna input since these are both Apple products, but maybe that's not the case.
In the three years I had the 4S, it never dropped calls at my home. It's too soon to know whether the 6 will be as good. Have any of you seen a reduction in depicted signal strength on the new phones compared to the older ones?
I've also read that Verizon expects to roll out Wi-Fi calling in 2015, which would eliminate the problem of weak cellular reception in places where you have Wi-Fi access. The same is true of AT&T.
