SureCallFusion4HomeYagi vs weBoost

I am boondocking a lot and sometimes I got only one bar on my phone, my network is Googgle Fi, which use Sprint, T-Mobile and US Celluar. I have been thinking about buying a celluar booster.
I am leaning on buying either weBoost or SureCallFusion4Home and would like some input from you guys what you have and how good they are.

generally Verizon, overall is the best cell service as you travel.

Have a weboost in our repertoire but it gets rarely used. With our prior setup a MIMO antenna 99% of the time resulted in better performance than the cellular booster. New setup with 9-in-1 antenna and multiple carrier router hasn’t needed one. Before buying a booster I would spend the $29 for a Netgear MIMO antenna and do some testing.

We have WeBoost. It works for Cell Phones, but not very well for mifi. I second getting a Netgear MIMO antenna.. You have to play with its placement and direction.

So if I buy that Netgear MIMO antenna, would I have to buy a jet pack for connectiont to the antenna?
Do they have one for T-mobile since I have Googgle fi.

Generally the best device is a "hot spot" from your cell provider. My wife's phone turns into a "hot spot" when needed. If you consider it, I highly recommend Verizon. They have the most extensive coverage in the U.S.
