Reach was easy to install and use. It works with existing case fairly well other then some differences in touchscreen performance. Good data speed and zero dropped calls.

It seems improving the data speed of my iphone6, at the same area the speed of opening webpages are becoming faster. The performance of battery life has no big change.

i loved how easy it was to install and that it fits right underneath my case so it isn't visible. Furthermore, it is light weight and I don't even notice it is there

Sleek design and easy to install. I can see a faster speed on my data. Battery life maybe just a tad longer than the usual.

I think it's great with the data speed. I didn't have drop call problems before so I don't know if this helped in that area. But worth it for data speed increase!

Fits in cases & helps signal

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I tried it in a few cases I own and even tighter ones fit around it just fine. In my leather apple case it seems nonexistent. It's very lightweight.
As for signal, it seems to work in some cases better than others, but overall improves or maintains the connection. I get better connection in my building and elevator. And the wifi holds at greater distances from the antenna.
I have not tried removing it but there is a small plastic remover tool included in the packaging.

I thought that the product was unique and superbly built. It was very easy to install. I didn't notice any substantial difference inside my house but when I was commuting or hiking, my data speeds were notably faster and I was receiving emails/calls whereas before everything would have come in when I was back in cell tower range. I would recommend this to everyone because it makes you feel safer knowing that you have service to call someone in an emergency.

Improved download speed

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This product didn't really improve my cell signal, but did seem to improve my download speed if I was in a wifi zone. I compared my cell function with the antenna to my husband's without and I did not get better reception and while on vacation in Colorado there were only spotty improvements.

We are glad you have seen some performance improvements from your Reach Antenna. Please know that while you may not always see more “bars” on your phone screen, 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.
It is important to know that we designed our Reach Antennas to be used (1) with a case and (2) also when held in your hand so how you are using it and what case you have are factors in performance. We would like to work with you to help make sure you are experiencing all that Reach Antenna has to offer. Please reach out to us at 1-855-862-4090 so we can work with you.

Don't buy if you want better cell reception

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
It seems to increase speed of Internet and battery life MARGINALLY. But there is absolutely no betterment to cell reception. In fact, as other posters said, my 2 dots of reception have now mostly gone down to just 1 dot since I adhered the antenna.
I would not recommend.

The fact that you are seeing increased speed and better battery life is showing that Reach Antenna is indeed working for you by improving your signal. A better signal means your phone doesn't have to work as hard to acquire and hold a signal - - which gives you better battery life. Please know that you may not always see more “bars” or “dots” on your phone screen when using Reach Antenna. The reason for this is that 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”.
It is also important to know that we designed Reach Antennas to be used (1) with a case and (2) also when held in your hand. 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.

In my office only ATT phone works perfectly. I am surprised to see that by using this antenna with my new iphone 6, the verizon signal issue at my office is totally solved. No more lost call or call with bad quality. The 4G LTE data also starts working with blasting speed. My other team mates with Spring and Verizon phones are also willing to put this antenna in thier phone after seeing my phone works.,
