Axon 7 A2017G reception strength - ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi,
Yesterday I've received the Axon 7 global from Amazon Spain.
Globally I'm very happy with it. My only complaint is the mobile network reception. But I'm not unhappy at all with it, because download speed and connection stability seems better than my old S7 Edge.
But if you enter in setting/about phone/SIM Status signal is almost always @-100dBm or higher, and theoretically that's not good...
This is my status right now, 4/5 bars, but 104dBm, Internet working fine:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Please, post screenshots of your phones, global or not, and we'll search for a pattern, because this is pretty strange...
Thanks!

Since i had my A2017G-B03 yesterday, the first thing i noticed was the bad signal strength in my house comparing to my other working phones (the ZOPO zp999 and my Huawei Y6).
With my 2 other phones i always have a decent 4g and a rather good signal strenght when calling.
With this phone....it is clearly worse :
1. no 4G in my house (except when standing before a window; outside and in my car : good quality and no problems so far)
2. when making phone calls , sometimes the signal becomes too weak i can heardly hear the conversation. I have to recall. So much worse then i am used to

LTE -104 dB and 36 ASU is very good LTE signal. In case of LTE the problematic range begins under 120 dB.
Do not mix it with 3G value. In that case red zone is already under 102 dB.

I have att in the United States, and the axon 7 has one of the best signals of any phone i have used.

Oh! I didn't know :/ That's make sense, because Internet is working flawlessly and without disconnections.
Thanks!

I heard about all the reception problems with the Axon 7 but I said I'd give it the benefit of the doubt and it does seem to be a bit worse the other phones I've had but it's not something that will throw me off this phone because everything else about it is brilliant. And besides I live in Ireland in a pretty remote place so it's doing well for that haha.
