Q: Reception issues on Droid Incredible 2?

I non tech friend of mine picked up an HTC Droid Incredible 2, brand new, from Verizon.

Looks like a very good phone. It runs an older version of Android, but I don't see that as a problem.

However, I have come across many +/- comments on its cellular reception (almost thought I was reading about an old ATT iPhone 4, some were so bad): RF bad, holding phone a killer, etc

Kept reading about software/firmware fixes coming (sounds familiar?). But it is not clear what happened.

So, my question:

I won't be in a position to judge for myself, but given the 14 day Verizon trial, does anyone have experience, direct or otherwise, on how bad or good the RF reception or antenna is on the Droid Incredible 2?

Thanks in advance, I like to offer some advice to them.

Thanks for the comments. I discovered a few other people with the Incredible 2, and they said it was doing fine for them

The person who purchased it, she would get very frustrated with reception issue, but is not tech enough or at all, to understand RF conditions that may cause it. So I didn't wish her to have any further handicap in the antenna area.

For now, it will be a keeper.
