    Reach Antenna

    I have this antenna on my IPhone 5 and it was very easy to install to the back of my phone. It stays in place and I have noticed faster speeds and better data coverage with the antenna on my phone. I would highly recommend this product and my case also fits easily over the antenna too!

    Faster Apps

    It was very easy to install, which was great. I just put it on under my case and then put my case back on. No issues at all. At first I didn't notice any changes with my coverage or data, but when I used my phone at work, I noticed that my apps were moving a bit faster that normal.

    This product works. I placed it on the back of my iphone ( it was super easy) and noticed a difference very quickly. My phone didn't drop in places that it normally dropped and my battery lasted longer then before which was a great plus to me since I am on it A LOT!

    Easy to install with great instructions and installation jig. Done in a jiffy. Got better service immediately and found I had service including 3G where I had no service before. Wednesday Wing Night with Service YAY! Glad I got a reach Antenna for my Iphone 5.

    I thought this product was very convient for he fact that you can use it with any case. Although maybe some cool designs on it would be nice seeing that the vbqck of my case is clear! I think I've only lost service or had a dropped call once since I've had it.

    I have been very pleased with the antenna. Not only have I not had trouble getting service since installing it but it has helped me keep a charge longer. As someone who relies heavily on her phone for work this is a value-added product.

    Bottom Line: It Works!

    This is incredibly easy to install. It fit the back of my phone perfectly, and it would obviously fit with most cases. I commute four hours a day on a train to Manhattan, so my signal strength can get very weak and spotty from being on the move and going through tunnels. Although my really weak signal areas were still pretty bad, I noticed that my data speeds were definitely faster and I had less trouble getting a signal. There was a noticeable difference at the beach as well, where normally my internet and data is incredibly slow, and sometimes just doesn't work. There was a huge improvement in the speed and signal strength. So overall, it's not a miracle worker if the signal is incredibly weak, but it definitely works and you will notice an improvement with your usage. Great product!

    Strengthens Signal

    It was very easy to install on my phone, didn't interfere with the case I had on it and I seem to have faster data speed when not using wifi. It's especially useful when you are in an area that doesn't have good cell strength.

    I have currently have T-mobile and my reception is not always the best. ReachAntenna typically boosts by signal strength by a bar or so, which is often the difference between a text or call going through or not.

    This antenna has worked well for my iPhone 5. I have noticed that when I am in my basement where I normally get poor reception, I now get much better reception. Less dropped calls and clearer voice quality.

    I have Sprint and it doesn't work that well outside of the city, especially my data reception. With reach antenna, I get an extra boost which is helpful.

    When I am in my house on wifi, I have better coverage than anyone else in my family. When I am off wifi, I cannot say definitively that I get faster data speeds but it seems like everything loads faster

    When I first saw this product, I was a little skeptical that it would do much of anything. After all, it doesn't look like much. After using it, I'm happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised. It was super easy to "install," and it doesn't add any bulk to my phone. It also really seemed to improve my signal strength, which was great for me as I live in an area that often has a very weak cell signal. I don't get a full signal with this, but I do get a slightly stronger signal with it than I did before. I'm impressed, and I'd highly suggest giving it a try.

    I have noticed a difference in data speeds as well as coverage. They have improved; however, not as much as I expected. The battery performance...I have not noticed a difference in that.

    It works, just not sure if its worth the $$

    I purchased this to increase my 4G LTE coverage at work which is pretty much non-existent. Prior to purchasing, I had to turn LTE off on my iPhone and just use the 4G to get internet and even then it was spotty - long buffer times, low quality video streaming on YouTube, etc. After installing the ReachAntenna I did notice an improvement however my LTE connection is still unreliable and I still have to turn it off and leave it in 4G mode to get a solid connection which has improved - better buffer times and I can stream high quality videos on YouTube. It does work as my 4G connection is better, I just wish I could get a solid LTE connection.
