Which phone has the best reception?

To do this test, I brought both phones to three different places separated by several miles. Then, I turned on a phone, waited a few moments, and recorded the number of bars. I did the same with the other phone immediately after. Below, I list the location, followed by the number of bars recorded for each location.



Basement in my house


Q9 Global: 4/4

BlackJack II: 4/4

In a friend’s garage

Q9 Global: 3/4

BlackJack II: 1/4



Under trees, outdoors


Q9 Global: 4/4

BlackJack II: 2/4

Through this unscientific test, we can see that the Q9 Global has better reception in most cases, sometimes having 100% more signal strength than the BlackJack II. Another point for the Q9 Global.

Current score:

BlackJack II – 1

Q9 Global – 2
