maybe it's the fact that cases reduce signal strength on this phone.

I mean, when the signal strength drops when you hold it at the bottom of the phone, what can we expect?
HTC Sensation - SOLD!!! PIECE OF GARBAGE!! No reception. Great phone, but when you can't make a call because of the terribad reception, what good is it?

Google Galaxy Nexus GSM Unlocked! CM10 FTW!

Nook Color Encore - CM7 nightlies

What kind of world are we living in where a device only functions properly under the range of normal-intended use circumstances and begins to falter when you you hold it in the most unnatural, unconventional and uncomfortable ways in an attempt to cover its radio antennae. Ah well, what can we expect?

Also , the first time I held my phone in store it was with a body glove and screen protector. That body glove is like the binky that my baby came wrapped in, and I haven't had any issues with dropped calls, though my GPS is pretty whack.
If I've posted something that helps you hit the THANKS button. Thanks!

This phone don't have problems with drop calls your signal where you live at is weak. This is not the iphone folks i can cover the phone with both hands and don't lose a bar.

Had it on for 3 days now. No dropped calls.
Antenna signals can pass thru objects. The holes on the phone
are sufficient to get signal to the connectors.
But, having a thin piece of plastic should not interfere
with that signal.
Now, I would not advise using a metal case for this phone.
