5.0 out of 5 stars Didnt expect much
For the first time ever I can use my cell phone at work.
I used to lose signal about 2 miles from my job all the way to work, and a mile behind it where I refuel.
I didnt actually think this would work but since it was $1.00 I tried it.
I get about 1 or 2 bars more on average.
Nothing massive, but its the differnce of NO signal, and some signal...

1.0 out of 5 stars Electronic Snake Oil
Stop wasting your money. This is electronic snake oil!!! I'm an engineer with over 35 years experience in RF communication. Trust me; this device will do nothing to improve your reception. In fact if it does anything, it might actually detune your cell phones internal antenna and decrease its performance.

The cell phone industry is extremely competitive...

The cell phone industry is extremely competitive. Cell phone manufactures spend tens of millions of dollars designing their phones for optimum performance. They employ some of the finest engineering minds in the world. Doesn't logic tell you that if a few bits of foil could dramatically improve a phones performance they would have already incorporated it into their designs?

1.0 out of 5 stars Quack Device, July 20, 2005
This review is from: Cellular Innovations A-BOOSTER Universal Cell Phone Antenna Booster (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Folks, this is nothing more than a sticker with a design on it.

It can in no way, and does in no way improve reception at all.

They were selling these for $20, now I see they are down to $1, and even that is a rip off, unless you are a collector of quack devices, in which case, you must have this for your collection of quack devices from this century.

I am keeping mine in it's bubble package and display it on the wall near my test bench.

One day these will be worth something as collectors items, but don't get one beleiving that it can actually do what it claims, because that is physically impossible.

These things are just a confidence trick. They don't do a thing. They can't do a thing. If you believe these make your phone work better then you probably find the stripes down the side of cars make them go faster too.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worthless, January 27, 2010
This review is from: Cellular Innovations A-BOOSTER Universal Cell Phone Antenna Booster (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I bought a pack of these years ago thinking that it might do something for me.... There is a reason it is so cheap. It is nothing more than a sticker made to look like some kind of super thin circuit board. You are better off putting one of those smiley face or star stickers from the kindergarten "good job" board on your phone.

1.0 out of 5 stars Uh..., July 24, 2009
This review is from: Cellular Innovations A-BOOSTER Universal Cell Phone Antenna Booster (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Doesn't affect signal strength at all. Looks kind of like a transformer face though. So that's good, I guess.

Id rather have it choppy, then none at all.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cellular Innovations A-BOOSTER Universal Cell Phone Antenna Booster (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Don't bother with ordering this product. I never got one. When I wrote a bad review they emailed me and told me it got lost in the mail, never got the product. I hope people fight this bad company.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cellular Innovations A-BOOSTER Universal Cell Phone Antenna Booster (Wireless Phone Accessory)
The booster antenna Does not work, it actually makes cell service worse rather than better. Do not buy this product. It doesn't work at all.
