Antenna79 Reach Case R79X Review

So, there's obviously an essential need for the phone's antenna to work more efficiently. Because it doesn't seem likely that phone manufacturers are going to do anything in the near future to improve the antenna technology used in their products, there's a need for some kind of solution.

This also means that whose sections aren't protected, but they rarely need protecting. The cases mute switch has its own cutout area as well. Camera usage isn't hindered by the case either, because the cut out for the camera is good sized. In addition, the volume and sleep/wake buttons have covers that are button shaped and you just push them to operate the functions.Design and Style
The case is made of hard, protective materials, said to exceed military standards when it comes to drop protection. While it may be a bit bulky, you'll actually appreciate the way it looks with the cut out lattice design on the backside of the case, adding a nice touch of flair. Like a more basic look? There's also a non-lattice version available. In spite of its somewhat bulky design and professed functionality, it’s really not very heavy. The case is also designed with rubbery edges that provide a unique lip over element that protects the iPhone’s screen when it's placed face down. These protective soft edges also make the case easy to take off or put on.
So, does the R79X case for the iPhone really give users better reception?
While you can't increase the cellular network of your provider, you can increase your iPhone's ability to accumulate that signal so that your calls sound better. Another perk to add to the mix is that it can improve on the response and speed of the data that the phone's is drawing from the airwaves. It also maximizes battery usage, providing power to the phone, so bottom line, it's a win-win all the way around.
