As one reader put it;
CR is great for appliances, and they're good at tracking overall customer service complaints (I think in fact they're better than CNET and other tech press on that last item). But their staff expertise is heavily weighted toward vehicles and other durable goods. I would never buy a computer based on the feature comparisons at consumer reports - but I would pay attention to the customer service ratings they give computer companies. You just have to know how to use these journals.

I am pretty sure Consumer Reports is capable of testing/rating cell phones.
Who would have to say it in order for you to listen? Many sites like Cnet, Consumer Reports, etc, seem to think there are reception problems with the new iPhone.
Also, if you feel that Consumer Reports IS capable of tracking overall service complaints as your reader comment suggests, you may want to look at their overall cell phone service ratings that has AT&T on the bottom of the list.
