I just received my F1 and have been using it for a couple of hours.
The cellular strength is about 2 bars less than my 4 year old Samsung S5! For example, I don't have any coverage in my house. Admittedly, I usually only had about 2 bars in my house with my S5 but it always worked. The F1 doesn't at all.
I'm pretty disappointed. I guess I'll have to return it.
Anyone have the same experience?
Me too have noticed a drop in signal strength
Let me know if u fix that issue

Strange! I have never had any network related issue on Poco F1 till the time I am on miui. But once I switch to AOSP based custom ROMs (except PE), I see a huge drop in network signal bar. I am not sure if miui shows fake signal bar. But I have never had any call drop or voice breaking issue.

I have a TMO Note 5 came from an S5 and the Wifi seems to not hang on as well for me, regular use is fine, but too weak for the wifi calling. The s5 didn't seem to have the issue. I'm going to hit up tech support and see if maybe it's just my Note 5. (I have seen 2 identical phones side by side but different signal strengths). It's only the 5Ghz though and doesn't matter which Channel.
Yes, the range, signal quality actuallay spped of wifi strength was AWFUL when I first got my phone, but a few updates to lolipop and it was working exccellent. Good wifi signal, speed and no drop out. However, Since I've been on Marshmallow, I almost see no performance change. That could be good or bad because I was expecting more on the more recent updates after Marshmallow. I have no complaints here cause I don't use wifi when I'm at work but wifi is awesome at home, the gym, moms house and every where in between. How can a big cell phone company make a phone that has terrible wifi signal strength and speed?
I've mainly been using LTE/4G as I'm on an Unlimited data plan but when I connect to WiFi the speeds are awesome and my internet speed is 100mbps and I get around 70-80mbps via WiFi on my Note 5. Strength is great also where I'm still connected at the end of the house compared to my dad's iPhone.

Nice to have an unlimited data plan, I just joined verizon a little too late to be grandfathered in. But it's nice to see the Juggernaught 5 is an amazing and fast phone

Constant Wifi disconnects at work, gym, any place that has more than 10 people using the wifi. Home use its fine.
WiFi and network no issues, better den any other phone... Previously I had Redmi note 3 was getting only 2 bars of network...While in Honor 6x I'm getting full network
no issues with wifi connectivity
Everything ok after two weeks of usage
No issues seen till date. Been using this phone since Dec and havent encountered the issue with Wi-FI strength. most of the time full bars unless I am in closed room or around 20 ft from hotspot.

That could be wifi signal issues as well or if they have limited the nunber of devixes for simultaneous connection.
No signal drop in home
In fact i can get wifi sometimes (not always) aon ground floor from my home at 7th floor (around 90 ft distance easily)

Gets maximum speed and strength is very good
All good with 5GHz routers.
no issue at all.perfect
Maximizes the speed of wifi. Very good.
Great WiFi speeds and signal on the Honor 6X.

Using it for 3 days. So far very good, It has a good range but not good as premium phones. For example before this phone i used p10 plus and it could catch wifi signal even from bottom of the building (I am living at top of the building). With A8(2018) im starting to catch wifi when I climb to second or third floor.
Wifi-Signal sometimes breaks off. I recognised this while using "WhatsApp-desktop." I think a further update will fix it.
it is very solid but you have to watch your hands from blocking the antenas sometimes during games.
hi guys yea i comfirm i have problems with network also which is very weak comparing to my old phone Galaxy note 3 ... i changed for this one ( A8), working fine but a bit slower and its enoying for me if i knew it i could stay with my old phone x) ... i hope there will be solutions to fix this
Ive had my A8 for 3 weeks and it constantly disconnected from wifi, both at home and the office. The wifi icon will get an exclamation point on it and I either have to wait for it to reconnect, or if it doesnt reconnect I have to turn off/on the phone's wifi.
Anyone else experience this? It's so bad I may take it into warranty.

Can't confirm that. I would test it maybe on a third wifi, but I don't think it will change something.

Never had any issues with mine, even worked fine out in the workshop which is a good 100m from the router, through several walls and across the yard. Not quite as good as the S9+ but that was double the price of the A8.

Yes, this is because the phone keeps switching between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz network. Disable or rename 5Ghz is your best option.
Much much better than my Moto X Play.

Signal is pretty bad. I have Google WiFi at home and in my bedroom the Xperia can barely connect and often drops. My old OnePlus 5t did not have this problem. I'm very surprised an all glass phone has that much worse WiFi than a 3 year old metal unibody design...
I notice the WiFi isn't great on the phone. I often have to switch to mobile data. My older phones do not have this problem.
Same, my s9+ was all glass and had better wifi signal. I'm wondering if it can be fixed with a software update as when I first got the phone it wasn't to bad.
My Xperia 1 would drop the wifi connection at home too often, I've had the Xperia 1 11 for a week now and it is better but still drops it, every couple of days for a few seconds, so far anyway. Never have this issue at home with my iPhone 11.
Gotta say I've had no issues with wifi strength, range or throughput. I'm on O2 here in the UK.
I am having problems with a BT Smart Hub. It doesnt seem to be a problem with the signal strength for me, rather it stalls all the time and data isn't received every so often. Played with switching between 802.11ac, 802.11n and 802.11g but makes little difference.
I started a thread on the Sony forums on this here:
https://community.sony.co.uk/t5/xperia-1/xperia-1-ii-unreliable-wifi/td-p/3684998
I have a Vodafone router. WiFi is fine, it's actually stronger on 5ghz than my Asus Rog 2 was.

What Wi-Fi router are you using?
Wifi strength is bad on mine. Drops out in several rooms of the house, where non of my older phones had the same problem
I have a WiFi 6 (AX) router and the phone connects at almost full speed across 10meters between 3 rooms, something you cant get with AC WiFi for sure.
So I rate 10/10
Dear friends, I have same problem. My XQ-AT52, imported from HK, has very slow wifi connection.
Only with 5Ghz Wifi it's ok.
2.4 gHz bad range.

Rubbish wifi strength here and for some reason it refuses to see my office wifi despite it working great with the rest of the house.

It seems to operate on 5G at my house. I haven't really went anywhere because it is best to stay home these days. I get about 120/18 at home. I was getting 85/15 on 4G
With those speeds it sounds like the towers are installed in your back yard???
I notice poor wifi signal on 5ghz. I get like 1-3 bars. On my laptop I get 4 to 5.
Cellular strength seems to be a week point of LG. I had low reception on my V20, and still have it with the V60.

I second this
Definitely seeing worse wifi reception than I was getting in my 6t
I've had no issues with either the 4G LTE or the WiFi at home.
My city has 5G coverage, and I'm literally ringed by 5G on three streets neighboring my own. But alas, I live on a 4G peninsula surrounded by a sea of 5G. Hopefully, my street gets it sooner rather than later.
That said, I'm working from home (and under constant WiFi), and were I able to commute into NYC where I would normally be working, I'd have way more opportunities to test the 5G.
THAT said, my home is blanketed by WiFi coverage provided by a mesh router system, so that probably explains why I'm not experiencing any issues.
Most certainly, nothing about this phone so far lacks in comparison to my venerable but now retired LG V30+.
