So if it is using the 900 band, it is irrelevant to me because I don't use 900 band where I am at. 900 and 850 isn't that much of a difference but the results will be different. Also, I never use GSM bands, just the HSDPA and the LTE. The results will also be different.

Real life problematic usage: you're driving through the middle of nowhere, you're lost and you cannot receive or make phone calls. Another one: you work in a hospital and wonder why you cannot receive or make calls unless you're in a certain part of the building. That's the real beef.

Well according to the chart, if I upgrade my iPhone 5 to the new iPhone 6S, I will actually get a significant better reception! So I got that going for me, which is nice..

Why? Because there are too many phone models released by samsung that mostly looks almost the same to the point that these majority of people gets confused and after a while people dont care, thats why there are less queue line. (Did anyone even know or care when galaxy alpha was launched before iphone 6 last year? Hmm.. I doubt it).

Apple iPhone 6 Plus 1.16
Apple iPhone 4S 1... moreProbably from independent measurements such as these:
https://www.rfsafe.com/new-rf-safe-iphone-6-and-6-plus-cases-fit-iphone-6s-and-iphone-6s-plus/
"The Simultaneous Transmission SAR ratings of both iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are merely .02 W/kg under the FCC’s legal limit of 1.6 "
Compared to Samsung Note 5 for example:
" The Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Model SM-N920V (for Verizon) ranks well among popular Smartphones as the lowest SAR Smartphone with a Head SAR Level of only 0.21 W/kg (watts per kilogram averaged over one gram of tissue)"
The latter is about 5 times lower than what they measured for the iPhone 6s.

something minor here. the negative sign of dbm shouldn't be use here. actually the more negative it is the worse is the reception, check your android phone status as prove...

been to an Apple store once i said to one of the group of people waiting in line "why are you guys waiting in line for a very long time for just a phone?" they replied "because we have the money to buy it".
been to a samsung store actually there is less people and "No Lines" i ask a person there randomly why buy a samsung phone? he replied "Because its cheaper than an iphone but way more versatile than an iphone"
why is that?

like it matters , i have no problem even using my ip5 for calls (which according to this is low in the ranking) plus big antenna means bigger radiation to your body, no? what so proud of? Apple uses just about the right amount to only make a call, why use big antennas if u have no trouble using the less one? less harms to ur body
