Purchased the WeBoost 4GM to use at work and in my personal vehicle.
Have been using for over a month. I am an Merchant Mariner and needed something to give me better reception while we are at anchor or uw along the coast. Also figured to set up in the car when I am home.
The unit works fine with the external antennae provided, I will look into purchasing an upgrade and also one for the inside to provide better coverage while I am in my stateroom. Best Buy had a deal going at the time of purchase as these units are not cheap.

Purchased this booster because I often travel across Michigans upper peninsula and would regularly have poor or no reception there. Since purchasing this booster I have very few spots where I have no signal

Very nice booster, definitely boosts the cell signal. Only draw back is when it connects four phones you have no control over which 4 phones it connects.

First you must understand that the little bars on your phone are a guide, not a gauge. With iPhones you can look up online to get a true signal strength meter in place of the bars really easy. I tested it many times, turning it on and off in different areas. You can expect about 10% gain, sometimes less if the signal it's trying to amp is very poor. Now 10% may not sound like much but it can be enough difference as to if you can surf the internet or not. It did take my phone from analog back to 4g service a few times which is priceless at times. It will not take you from 1 bar to 4. Honestly if you don't have a meter you may not even see it increase a single bar, but it's working and will increase around 10% as I tested.

i bought 2 boosters, one for my husband and one for myself. I love mine, I can definitely tell the difference immediately. My husband says he can not tell the difference, but he is in a better area then I am. the only complaint that I had is.... I drive an aluminum truck, so no metal to stick the magnet to. The kit comes with a double sided tape, but it only lasted 2 days. So i went to auto zone and purchase, gorilla double sided tape, even in -20 degrees my antenna is still in place.

I am a Disaster Reservist who bought this product

I am a FEMA Reservist and my life often depends on having a signal. When I originally bought this product I wondered just how well this would work in the real world and in real time disaster mode. When I got deployment orders to go to Southern Atlanta, I was able to put this to the test. Both in the car and in the homes we took registration from! For home use I simply used a female cigarette plug adapter to power this up.
This became incredibly handy, M ost often in houses with tin roofs, I would simply place the antenna outside and then the signal that would normally be absorbed by the tin roof and come back with zero bars would hit an easy 2 to three bars.
As far as in the car in most places where we would have zero bars we would have zero bars we would jump two bars. If I had to place an estimate on the signal total I would say in 90% of our zero bar status we were able to get a signal. Overall, I am glad I bought this product with my own money.. Please note the review is my own and has no reflection by my boss

Bought this to boost the cell signal in my car. I travel to remote locations in Montana, and where there was little to no signal this booster would give me signal. In good coverage areas it doubles my download, and upload speeds, and in week signal areas it will give me at least 1 bar LTE, from 1x signals. All in all very pleased with the performance of this booster.
