I've used the Sleek for several years. First the Verizon 3G model, then the 4G model. Both with a good external antenna.
At first I was rather disappointed, as it didn't seem to make a lot of difference. In fact, if I did a speed test, I got better speeds without the sleek than with it. I had more bars with the Sleek, but not better data speeds.
THEN . . . . we traveled to the a KOA campground just outside the Badlands, SD, where there was ZERO cell service. I put the phone into the Sleek, and VIOLA 2-3 bars. I could use my bluetooth or speaker phone to talk. Same results with the Jetpack MiFi; I didn't get fantastic signal, but better than the campground WiFi.
I'm a believer now!
Hope this is helpful.
