    I added this antenna to all of our cellphones. It does make a big difference in weak areas of cellphone signals.

      Please be aware that performance is not always noticeable on your phone screen so it may seem as if you are not having a benefit when you actually are. Oftentimes performance is seen when you have the ability to make and hold calls in areas where you were previously unable to. You may also see better battery life when the phone isn’t having to work as hard to find and hold a signal.

      It is important to know that we designed our Reach Antennas to be used (1) with a case and (2) also when held in a hand or up against a head, so how you are using it and what case you have are factors in performance.

      We would like to understand more about how you are using Reach Antenna and measuring its performance. Please give us a call so we can work with you. You can reach us at 1-855-862-4090. Antenna79

      While you may not always see more “bars” on your phone screen, it is important to know that Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal. Often times performance is seen when you have the ability to make and hold calls in areas where you were previously unable to. You may also see better battery life because the phone isn’t having to work as hard to find and hold a signal. The reason for this is related to how your phone measures signal strength, and what it takes to give you a full “bar”. Your phone’s signal strength is measured in dB’s, and with the logarithmic (non linear) dB scale you can have a 2 dB improvement (which gives you a 1.5x signal improvement) while still not having the phone show an extra “bar”. A full “bar” improvement requires 10 dBs, which equals a very big 10X improvement in your signal.

      We would like to connect with you to learn more about how you are using Reach Antenna so we can ensure you experience all it has to offer. Please give us a call so we can work with you. You can reach us at 1-855-862-4090.​ Antenna79

Reach Antenna is proven to increase the possibility for greater coverage with up to 1.5X stronger LTE signal strength and we are confident it is working for you. Please be aware that performance is not always noticeable on your phone screen though, so it may seem as if you are not having a benefit when you actually are. Often times performance is seen when you have the ability to make and hold calls in areas where you were previously unable to.

      Thanks for purchasing Reach Antenna. Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal, but that doesn’t always translate into “bars” on your screen so you may be confused about your performance. Your phone’s signal strength is measured in dB’s, and with the logarithmic (non linear) dB scale you can have a 2 dB improvement (which gives you a 1.5x signal improvement) while still not having the phone show an extra “bar”. The bars are also an indicator of Received Signal only, but ReachAntenna is actually improving both your receive and transmit signals so again there is much going on that you can’t actually see on your screen.

      It is also important to know that we designed our Reach Antennas to be used (1) with a case and (2) also when held in a hand or up against a head. We created a video documenting our testing and we would like you to view it as it speaks to your concerns. In the video you will see live data with improved performance in real life situations, as tested by independent third party labs. You can see it at: http://www.reachantenna.com/drivetest

    I don't see any difference in the number of bars, but do notice fewer dropped calls in one area on my commute to work. That's worth the $30.
