Are you sure your other phones are using O2 in GSM mode, not 3G?  It
could be that the other phones use 3G and thus have better coverage
indication.

Furthermore, different phones can very well have different Rx
sensitivity...

That might very well be, but is completley unrelated to a RF signal
level as it is measured  by your phone (which leads to the problem you
are observing).

Nice joke. I would be really surprised if you find SIM cards issued
during the last 14 years in western countrues that still can be cloned ;)
