Update coming that will make signal appear to be better : It’s not every day that smartphone users want to be lied to. But in the case of signal strength, we’ll apparently make an exception. Verizon has told Computer World that in the case of the Verizon Galaxy Nexus, the LTE signal is being received and reported accurately. Too accurately, actually. So accurately, in fact, that if you appear to have a worse signal and more 3G/4G bouncing with the Galaxy Nexus, it’s probably because your other LTE phones weren’t as accuate as the Galaxy Nexus.
So, as Verizon told Computer World, it will make the Galaxy Nexus report signal strength a little less accurately as to ease our minds and be more in line with its other LTE devices. And so long as the phone at least appears to have a better connection, we’re apparently OK with it.
This isn’t an unprecedented move Apple did pretty much the same thing with the iPhone 4. While we’re not disputing that things have appeared to be a bit off our own Verizon review unit definitely has appeared to be more wonky than our other 4G devices there’s probably a little bit of the internet microscope at work here, too. Verizon (and every other carrier) is always working on improving connection, even after a phone is released. It’s why we see new radios in updates all the time.
Anybody want to put money on what the next bug of the week is going to be?
