Yeah, but most of us buying expensive phones are on-call and need a powerful wifi hot spot and a bunch of other things out of it.
I literally can't think of a company where you end up on-call and the expectation is you can respond in [at most] 15 minutes to an emergency/alert. That means a laptop + mobile wifi hotspot [phone] everywhere you go.
The cheaper phones tend to have worse reception. In my office, I used to only get Edge due to the thick walls. My Nexus 6 has no trouble getting to LTE.
- freehunter 11y agoYour comment made me think of something I've experienced with recent iPhones. I have a 5S, my wife has a 5C, and oftentimes she will get reception when I get none, even though we are sitting side by side. I'm not sure why the newer, higher-end phone gets worse reception, but it does in my case.
- fweespeech 11y agoYeah, if its the same provider I'm surprised. But yeah, the quality of the reception varies b/t phone lines I've noticed which is annoying.
- z0r 11y agoIf you are on call, your company should be paying for your phone.
- fweespeech 11y agoThey would if I wanted to have a company phone. I don't want a company phone and have to juggle two phones.
