They have those commercials where someone is talking on a cell phone and they ask an important question of the person on the other end but even though the person answers positively somehow they can't hear them, so they assume the worst and blurt out something embarrassing to try to cover up their vulnerability? If your phone call is dropped, doesn't that mean the connection goes dead, so you'd probably see that right away if you looked at your phone. Dropped call doesn't mean you can't hear someone but they can still hear you, does it? Does that commercial make any sense?

No your right ... It doesnt do that ... Any normal person would look at their phone if they didnt hear anything on the other line ... A phone will usually tell you that the call was lost ... or signal failed ...something like that ...

The connection drops out in the exchange before it registers on the phone :)

I'd say a dropped call is when you loose connection and get cut of...
I like these commercials a lot, think they're pretty funny!!!

A dropped call is when the network is overstrained and cannot handle your call and "drops the connection".

This is not when you leave service area while on the phone and it disconnects. This is not technically a dropped call.
