We all wish we could carry around an external booster antenna for our cellphones. ClearBoost lets you do exactly that for your iPhone. This clever case conceals a built-in booster antenna that captures more of the available wireless signal and sends it to your iPhone's internal antenna. The result is better reliability for your signal, especially in border areas' which translates to fewer dropped calls, wider coverage areas, and faster downloads. Nothing to plug in - just snap iPhone in ClearBoost's durable polycarbonate case. Your iPhone gets protection from real-world hazards, and its antenna gets a boost. Please note that this item only fits iPhones 1G and 2G. It will NOT fit 3G or newer.

Clearboost Antenna
I live in a picturesque California valley, with mountains on two sides. Before getting the Griffin Clearboost Antenna,I was able to get cell phone reception in only one room in my house - the master bedroom on the 2nd floor. With the Clearboost, I now get reception in all rooms. Some rooms have better reception than others, but at least I can use the phone anywhere I am, and I'm not losing calls any more!For a $10 option, that's a great deal!

Slight improvement, but that was enough
My desk at work is on the ground floor in the center of the building. Zero or one bar. If my iPhone rang at all, I'd have to literally run for the exit to hold the call. Now, with this device, I can make it work. I have it propped straight up on my desk (this case has a flat bottom) and leave the earphone connected; if I use the earphone to answer the call without touching the phone, things seem to work OK.

DO NOT EVEN GIVE IT A CHANCE - really.
You'd hope that it will work for you, in your area of town, state, or the country. But buying it, trying it, declaring it garbage or reselling it to some other poor unwarned person, and that's not nice... Is just too much of a hassle. This item has no appearance of function, what-so-ever. IT IS a protective case. But with the dongle thingy, it is more obtrusive than other protective cases you can find.I can't believe Griffin went to market with a product this bad. I have always liked/loved their other products, and I am shocked they went forward considering that consumers, like myself, are ultimately write the case reviews like this one.Don't do it. It is really simple. ---- Don't.I have nothing to lose or gain by this review, but you have about $45 bucks to lose if you don't follow this advice.

Don't expect miracles, but it does work.
I ordered this product on the off chance it might actually work. Well, I can tell you it does help. I have tested it in many areas where I have had little to no signal in the past and the phone stayed connected with a signal about 70% of the time, which is a vast improvement over dropping my calls. HOWEVER, a dead zone is still a dead zone. This isn't a miracle, just a relay for the signal for where you cover up the antenna at the bottom of the phone with your hand when talking. If you buy this with realistic expectations and understand it helps prevent, not cure every dropped call, you will be pleased.

Great Product But Its not right For IPhone 4g
The Product looks sturdy but the only thing is it does not fit the Iphone 4G but maybe another model

Instantly Worth The Purchase
Let me first say, I've only had it for a few minutes now, but I went from "No Service" to 3 bars by just placing the iphone in the ClearBoost case. My house is not AT&T friendly, nothing AT&T works in my house cell phone wise. Will post more after I've used it longer, but just the fact I can txt from home now has been worth the $8 for me.

Did not Fit my iPhone 4S
No idea if this works because it did not fit around my iPhone 4S.Looks like a decent quality item that might fit around a different iPhone

I don't know what I phone this fits
It surely doesn't fit my 3s or 4 When I asked for one to replace the unfit one I was told I could send it back. The only problem seems they don't have one that fits my phones and the shipping has to be on my account. That's more than the piece of junk is worth, so I dumped it and won't do business with Griffin again.
