Drive Sleek - Model 470135R - Portable Signal Booster for Cars, SUVs, Trucks & Vans - 5G & 4G LTE Cellular Signal Booster for All US Carriers - Includes Booster & Antennas - FCC-Approved

I live in a country-rural area, where cell phone towers (no matter who your provider is), are quite scarce and miles and miles apart. Not unusual to see "SOS" or only one signal bar of service out of 4 (my husband and I have iPhones). Can't make a call or even send a text, which I find scary and unnerving when driving on a lonely country road or even the interstate. Bought this booster hoping it would do as it claims - and it does, and more!!! So thrilled and happy with this booster, and the fact that is can boost the signal at least 1 but usually at least 2 bars, and has even found 5G network signals where we never knew any existed! It says it's for only one device at a time (it comes with one cradle that you place your phone in), but we found if my phone is in the cradle and my husband places his phone right next to the cradle, it will boost his as well, to the same amount of bars that I now have, or vice-versa. I VERY highly recommend this signal booster. I am now going to purchase a second one for our other vehicle.

Verizon is my carrier. Despite living in the middle of a city, cell service at my home is weak due to hilly topography. I did a test run at my home and the Drive Sleek did nothing to improve the signal. However, I really purchased it to use while camping so I could have some flexibility with the frequent meetings and emergency contacts that are a part of my job. At the first campground where I tried it, my phone by itself had 1 bar of LTE and would hunt between that and 3G and 1X signals. The Drive Sleek gave me 3 bars of LTE, voice quality that mostly didn't fade out, but NO DATA. Mind you, I was in a stationary position for the week, so any voice dropouts at all were due to the Drive Sleek. The no data thing was a severe problem and Verizon wasn't able to solve it. Not amused. At the second campground where I tried the Drive Sleek, I had one bar of LTE without the booster, even with the iPhone in a magnetic case. With the booster, I had NO SIGNAL AT ALL (magnetic case removed). Adjusting the position of the antenna (rotating various directions, putting it on top of my trailer, suspending it from a tree branch, etc.) made no difference. When I got home, I made arrangements for its return. Be aware that you have to "hide" the booster cradle from the antenna or they will interfere with each other. This is true of all boosters and not a flaw with this product. Wilson supplies a generous length of cable - maybe 25 feet or so. I used the full cable length - the antenna perched on top of my trailer and the booster sitting on the picnic table, but best results were achieved when I "hid" the booster cradle from the antenna by placing the cradle behind the open lid of my metal camp stove. Wilson warns you about this in the installation instructions. The antenna cannot be placed near a sunroof. The metal roof on your car must act as a radio frequency sheild between the antenna and the cradle. While not all of us are fortunate enough to have a Volvo XC 60 or XC 90, be aware that this kit won't work with those cars. The sunroof on those vehicles runs the full length of the SUV, leaving you no place to put the antenna. Wish I'd known that before purchasing or I wouldn't have bought it at all.

Great device. I’m traveling for work on the mountain and my internet signal get better with this.

Bought this primarily for a long RV trip out west. Installation in my tow vehicle was a breeze. The first time I powered it up, I didn’t see much improvement in the signal strength. I jumped to the conclusion that it wouldn’t help me much, if at all. However, what I found over the weeks and months of the trip was that it DID help under certain circumstances. There were a number of times that my Verizon signal was 1 bar, 1x. Couldn’t even get texts to go through. The booster would always give me 3-4 bars in 1x. Enough for texts and a slow internet connection. I would sometimes even get a 3 or 4g connection! But remember, if there’s no signal at all, there’s nothing to boost and you will still not have any service. The only downside in my situation is that I had to run out to the truck every time I needed to use it. That’s the downside of a $200 booster vs a $500 booster. And no, you can’t install this into your RV without the addition of a metal antenna ground plane on the roof. You may be able to buy a different kind of antenna that does not require a ground plane. Not sure. Bottom line: Yes it works, but it is not the best choice for RVers since you can’t easily mount it inside your RV. Would I buy it again? Yes, I think so. It’s not ideal for my situation, but who wants to pay $500 when you can pay $200?

The product works for its intended use. It does boost signal if you have it, usually one and sometimes two bars. Even if it isn’t showing a one bar boost always, internet works faster. I tested this along with the Drive Reach. Many times they seemed to provide the same boost, sometimes this unit seemed to do slightly better or worse than the $500 unit. My major qualm is that while the build quality is better than some Chinese product, it’s not good enough for $200. I used the product once and the rubber around one of the cords already cracked. Also I drove on one moderately rough gravel road and the vent mounter phone case/holder fell off. I was able to get it back on but if you’re talking about a product that is intended to be in a car off the beaten path, it needs to be better for $200, especially considering the fact that nowadays cell towers are almost everywhere. That’s a note, at least I’m California there were only several spots I even needed this machine, even considering I was in the mountains. There were still spots neither Drive Sleek or Drive Reach worked. When it did work, what it meant was that I didn’t have to drive five minutes to a spot where my cell worked without this machine. So I would say if I needed it for work or for a demanding wife or kids on camping trips, it may be of some utility. But for me, this is a luxury item. I can camp and have phone in Spot X instead of having to drive 5 minutes to Spot Y down the road where I will have signal even without this device. So for me the build quality wasn’t high enough to justify the price tag for this luxury. It’s definitely worth $50- maybe $100 at most for me. The positive note is that while the build quality on the $500 unit is much better, I found the function of the two devices on 4G and 5G to be essentially the same. You still usually need to have the device very close to the receiver on the Drive Reach, so it’s basically the same product except the cell phone holder (while not excellent) is still helpful to keep the phone near the booster.

I chase storms in the Texas Panhandle and Western Oklahoma, while also living in Western Oklahoma. In these two regions cell reception loss is very common and you may not get it back for a while. That is when I decided to purchase the Weboost Drive Sleek 4G and what an amazing product it has been. I have owned this product for over a month now, and driven over 800 miles across areas that have little to no cell reception. I have only lost cell reception in areas that have no tower nearby. Besides that, I have not lost a single bit of cell service while driving. This is easily the best money I have ever spent on a product and it's well worth the price because as long as you have a cell tower near you, you will never lose signal. While chasing tornadoes this past week and the Texas Panhandle I never lost data which allowed me to have radar data on my laptop and stream my chase. I cannot tell you how much I recommend this product because it really does work! The only thing I would recommend is getting the 4G Trucker antenna as it is much larger and more reliable than the magnetic antenna that comes with the drive sleek. Also, when you get the device, make sure to download "Network Cell Lite Info" because I saw that this application helps show you how much of a better signal you are receiving because of the signal booster.

Plugged it in ... it worked! I'm glad I have trusted this company.

I had one of these a long time ago before this company took over and started making them. I used to use it for 3G and it worked great. So I decided to upgrade to the 4G and 5G model phone booster. My older one works better. This one doesn't seem to boost the signal. But I am going to test it out in a couple different ways just to double-check. I don't like spending a lot of money on something that doesn't work or is not built as well. They've changed the connections to make it so you have to use just their stuff which now it's not as compatible for what I like to use it for. I'm going to try to check it to see how much it's actually boosting signal if it is at all. I will re review this after I've tested it more. Unless I've gotten a bad one. One of the things that bothered me the most is how it was packaged. There was no padding in the box. So the product could slide back and forth and slam against the box if they dropped it. So I am very upset and disappointed and the lack of padding and packaging. I hope somebody gets this and understands. If you're going to send something so it doesn't break please put some kind of paper or padding in the box to stop from getting damaged. If this package is damaged there will be in another shipping charge to send it back. Not smart business. Not very happy. Concerned customer.

El producto cumple en tiempo de entrega y calidad especificada.

Lo he usado con AT&T y un celular ya bastante viejo (4.5 años). Estuve probando el amplificador en zonas donde viajo y que anteriormente tenía solo una "barrita" de señal, por lo que era muy dificil tomar llamadas y casi imposible navegar en internet. Con el amplificador instalado adecuadamente, fácilmente puedo crear un hotspot para la laptop y aguanta hasta llamadas por zoom. La velocidad no es la mejor, pero definitivamente puedo decir que sí funciona. Le doy 4 estrellas porque el precio es bastante elevado pero si cumple.

No me permite descargar la aplicación en México. En la descripción del producto dice que se puede utilizar en mi país. Quien me puede dar soporte sobre el tema

Producto muuuy prometedor pero la realidad es que deja mucho que desear. Lo estuve monitoreando durante 1 semana, a lo mucho en áreas donde existe cobertura aún llegaba a bajar la señal, revise y solo aumentó en tiempo real de 8 a 10 db, para el costo no vale la pena, aún así hubo dos ocaciones que se cortó la llamada. Un bonito sujetador para tu teléfono si es lo que quieres.
