    It works!

    I was skeptical but the reach antenna really improved the data speed (I'm a Verizon customer) and the battery life of my iPhone 6. Installation was a bit challenging, even though I followed the instructions it didn't align well and looked crooked at first try. I like that the design is flat and slim and works well with my Otterbox commuter. Make sure the back of your phone is really clean and free of dust, it really matters in the performance of the antenna.

    This product did increase the signal strength on my iphone 6. I did not feel it increased the battery. My son plays ice hockey and before using this product I could not make calls inside the building. I had no problem making and receiving calls with the reach antenna. The installation is easy!

    Interesting accessory

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Fits inside my existing case without issue. Using the packaging as a template for installation is a nice idea, easy to follow and flawless. The device seems to help a little, although it will take a longer time and more diverse experience to prove that fully.

    It's worth trying.

    This case was very easy to install. My phone case still fit nicely over it. I did not notice any extra bars on my phone. I'm not sure if it improved the coverage in my area but my call quality did seem somewhat better. I did notice that I had somewhat better data speed. I also noticed a little improvement in my battery life. I would say that it's worth trying out if you live in an area with bad reception.

    Effective product

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I thought it was easy to apply, which was a positive. There was noticeable increase in coverage. For me, the most important part of this observation was the increase in data speeds with fewer instances of lagging. I didn't really evaluate the fewer drop calls feature, but I'm sure it was improved as well based on the expanded coverage. The battery performance also was improved with less network searching.

    Fantastic product.! Easy to install, you never know it is there on your phone. I immediately noticed faster download speeds as well as service in 'dead zones'. This product makes complete sense and I would recommend its use to ALL iphone users.

    Better Service, Better Battery Life

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I didn't have high expectations about this product after reading the reviews, but it worked better than I expected. The service did improve on my phone, not by an insane amount, but I noticed a difference. The battery life on my phone has improved greatly, which I am thrilled about. I love that I can put this under my case and it still work and not be visible.

    Worth a Look

    Used to struggle with signal strength inside certain structures. Since adding the Reach Antenna, I don't even give it a second thought. Signal is strong everywhere. Makes the phone just a bit heavier, but it fits with my case and is worth the extra few ounces.

    Better than anticipated

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was very skeptical at first. Even when I first put it on my phone, I wasn't sure it was worth it. After a few months, it does seem to make a difference. My battery life has been better. I do get a better signal in areas I didn't before.

    I am on the road and travel in a lot of 'dead spots" I used this make sure I could keep in contact with my colleagues especially during the busy holiday season. It helped quite a bit in the dead areas even though I only noticed the bar only go up by one. It was easy to install, and it was a decent price.

    Battery life extender

    I like that it is very thin and fits under my case with no issues. I also love that it improves battery life significantly. I am still not sure about an increase in data speeds or coverage (to be fair I have not had an dropped calls).

    Really improved my coverage

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It was really easy to install. Since I have a small case, I was worried it wouldn't fit. But, it did. I immediately noticed an improvement in coverage, especially in WalMart. Usually, I can not get reception past the front door. I was able to use my phone further into the store this time. Cool!

    Good antenna

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It's easy to install (goes right on the back of the phone), it doesn't get in the way, and there is no change in how your phone looks after you put the case back on. It provides slightly better coverage, which makes service less spotty.

    Surprised

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I don't get good reception in my house and I got this item to get a better signal. I was quite skeptical about this product, but it worked great in my house and I got better coverage. I'm so happy I got it. On the plus side, my battery life did last longer which for me was an added bonus.

    Product does what it advertises

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This product does help signal strength and extends battery life. Doing this along with managing how your phone is operating (blue tooth, number of apps open, location, etc.) is a great way to extend battery life. Signal strength was only tested in open areas, not mountainous thought.

    Prolongs battery life

    I've had this item for a couple of weeks and it seems to prolong battery life. Adds a bit of weight to the phone, but doesn't bother me. Also, at least from what I can tell so far better reception in my house and office.

    I have 1 more bar in my phone in the basement of my office. That's a big improvement right there. The packaging tray for installation is a great idea. It was easy to use and instructions were easy to follow

    It was easy to install and so far it looks like it has increased my data speed. I'm getting less buffering when viewing videos using my cellular network. The only thing I slightly dislike is that it covers the entire back of my phone since I like the Apple logo.

    I did see a minor improvement in my signal strength, but I didn't spend a lot of time anywhere where I didn't have a strong signal. However, I noticed that my battery lasted longer, especially when I was using data rather than wifi. It's a cool product

    Great results

    My wife and I were shopping around Best Buy (always a fun Saturday) and stumbled upon Reach Antenna. I was a bit skeptical but she bought it because she never seems to have reception especially inside our house. We live in the hills of La Jolla and you think they could figure out how to get good cell reception up there. Anyway, I installed it on her phone (very easy install) and immediately she noticed a big difference in her signal strength. I am so happy we bought reach antenna, it was a very inexpensive purchase for such a great outcome. She can now use her phone inside our house and she is thrilled! And we all know....happy wife happy life!!!
