Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Ellipsis Jetpack 4G LTE No-Contract Mobile Hotspot for its ease of use, portability, and affordable price point. Many customers appreciate the convenience of having a mobile hotspot, especially when traveling, and the no-contract feature eliminates the need for a monthly subscription.However, some customers have concerns about the hotspot's data usage, as it can consume a significant amount of data when streaming videos. Additionally, the battery life could be improved, and a few customers found it to be expensive to use.

    Incorrect information given at Best Buy

    I was told the gigabytes that I purchased could be carried forward to the next month, which is not true. This has caused a huge battle with Verizon, when it is really Best Buy's fault for giving out bad information when I purchased the Ellipsis Hotspot. I think I should be compensated by Best Buy for the value I lost. Please get in touch with me and make this right.

    Bought the contract free version for about twenty bucks on sale. Now can buy small amounts of prepaid data and use on special occasions. I specifically wanted a hotspot I could raise up in the air where the cell signal was strong, and keep my phone with me.

    I bought this so that my son could watch movies and play on the computer during a long 2-day trip. However, the battery only lasted 2 hours. Kinda disappointed for the price I paid. Oh well. Live and learn.

    Bought this to use when I need internet on the go. Used my iPad and laptop with it no problem. The connection is good but depending if there is a good signal. Where I live it can be spotty at times but when I'm closer to the city it works great.

    Used this while traveling to remote area where my cell phone carrier did not offer coverage (but works if a wifi connection is available). Was the perfect solution for my needs with out having to spend a ton of money on another cell phone provider
