to get good reception

[dodo64]

How do you say in French "to get a good reception"? I'm talking about mobile phones. Merci.

Welcome to the forum, dodo64.

Would you care to try a translation before we help you? It's the custom here.

Well, I don't know. "J'ai une bonne réception" But I don't know if the French really say that. Thank you.

I don't use any mobile phones, but I think some people will talk about "capter / ne pas capter". But let's wait and see what the actual users will reply...

"Avoir une bonne réception" (avec son portable) is said around here, as well as "bien capter le signal".

Thank you very much!!!

"bonne couverture"?

 

[padvozaferr]

I'm inclined to think "bonne couverture" is rather used to describe the mobile phone service provider's reach, instead of the user's reception with his mobile.

"capter" or "bien capter le signal" "avoir un bon signal"
