Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the antenna for its signal strength, ease of use, and improved battery life. The slim size is also a plus for many users, as it doesn't interfere with most phone cases. However, some customers have reported issues with reception and compatibility with certain phone cases. A few customers also felt that the antenna affected the phone's appearance.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

      It’s important to know that the “bars” on your phone screen do not show you the full picture of your signal and you can have a benefit from Reach Antenna without seeing an extra “bar”. Often times Reach Antenna 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 that your phone's signal strength is measured in dB’s which use a logarithmic scale that is non linear like the earthquake scale. This means that 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 of improvement for your signal takes 10 dBs, which equals a VERY BIG 10X improvement in your signal.

      Please 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 be happy 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 answer any questions you may have.

    After seeing this a few times and becoming frustrated with the quality of service I receive inside the building I work in, I impulsively bought this as a hopeful quick fix. I've yet to noice any significant differences in data transfer speeds.

      We rigorously tested Reach Antenna in 3rd party CTIA-authorized labs to validate the results we display on our packaging. Reach Antenna is tested and proven to provide up to 1.5X LTE signal strength improvement.
