Universal Internal Antenna Booster
Great price from eBay
User reviews Depends on the phone, 2008-08-22
I used this with my old phone (Nokia 3590) and it really did make an improvement! I got it for my new phone (Sony Ericsson z520a) and it didn't help at all. You can look for these on Ebay too, if you want to give it a try and not spend a lot of money. Helps a little, 2007-01-12
I ordered this hoping to improve my cell reception, well it did in deed help some but not alot. I still use it and it has helped, but just don't expect a dramactic increase. Didn't Work for Me, 2006-11-11
No benefit for my phone, which is an LG VX6000. Other Reviewers Have No Clue, 2006-05-19
I was skeptical when I purchased this product... Then I actually TRIED it (unlike some of the other reviewers.) I only purchased this product after I saw it get good reviews from a local news program & then followed it up with a little online research.
The back of the sheet you see in the pic has the instructions on it(what were they talking about?) I installed 2 antennas on a friends reccomendation - One on the back side of the battery & another inside the phone casing. Point the triangle towards your antenna for best results.
Went from 0 bars in my basement to 1 consistantly. From one bar outside my house to 2. Two def. worked better than one as I tested before adding a second. This is not a freak thing, I am getting consistant results. I did read in one report however that some phones get better results than others (just like some phones get better reception than others to begin with)
I can't tell you HOW it works, but it DOES. You will not go from 1 bar to 5, but it will see some improvement. I didn't belive it untill I tried it. For 4 bucks how can you go wrong anyway? Search for local news stories on the product in Houston, etc. for other ACTUAL reviews - Not ones slapped together by people that have no actual experience with the product. Impressive looking, but....., 2006-01-24
This device, at first glance, looks magnificent and hightech. But it will not boost the signal of your phone. Let's suppose for a minute, that this shiney piece of paper worked. There would then be the problem of installing it, and believe me, this is quite a problem. The instructions aren't aided by a single diagram, and to top it off, I caught three mistakes (four if you count that it said it has an 18 month life span {spelling life "lift"})
Bottom line: Avoid this product at all costs.
