Reviews around value (4.48 of 5)

  • Overall, a superb value, fully meeting my expectations.
  • Great value can't transmit legally with these but can listen in to alot.
  • They don't work as far as they say they do
  • The upgraded earpieces came in a 10 pack, and cost almost as much as the original walkie-talkies, but it still turned out to be a good value,
  • The value for the radios is amazing, we had been purchasing Motorola radios for $400-$650 and now have completely gone to these.

Reviews around work (4.44 of 5)

  • Sucks that it was a Christmas present and I can't return it now... one works, but not the other...
  • Either way given the poorer than normal quality of the antenna, lack of working scramble function along with the failure to communicate with chirp, I would not recommend these radios
  • Nice came on time work very well in my area covers a nice distance.
  • The furthest distance through the building we use them is about 250 feet and the work loud and clear
  • I use these everyday and it appears that it is hit and miss on these radios some work great others not so much!!!

Reviews around reception (4.27 of 5)

  • The wrong threads (if too short) will result in poor reception and over heating of the transmitter as there is no antenna connection.
  • Batteries stay well charged and reception is very clear
  • The reception is very clear and we have not had any problem with interference.
  • For the price I didn`t expect much in fact we joked that these would be `disposable` after a
  • So I bought 2 of these to test because the low price led me to believe they would be cheap, poor reception, etc

Reviews around price (4.21 of 5)

  • I'm probably going to just live with the pre-programmed frequencies and be thankful for the cheap price.
  • Excellent product, Great price, what more could you ask for!

Reviews around quality (4.18 of 5)

  • They work great, the sound quality is good, and plenty of channels to switch into
  • Actually the cheapest, but once again great build quality.
  • The build quality is noticeably cheap in a few areas, the belt clip being the most obvious (the tension is provided by a scored piece of plastic which I'm pretty sure will break eventually), but they're a good value for the price, just get some spares
  • This is an update as of March 25, 2014.I'm putting this further review at the top simply to tell you to that the quality is very, very sketchy and you are likely to end up either with a good radio or a piece of junk.
  • These work so good, can;t believe the quality for the price of these

Reviews around software (3.62 of 5)

  • Ended up buying RT systems' software and regret not having bought an Alinco V-47 or a Yaesu FT-60 instead
  • These radios are very easy to program for FRS or GMRS with the appropriate cable (not included) and software (free)
  • The software that came with it was unusable for me even after I got it to stop flickering when I ran it.
  • The radios are easily programmed by a laptop or desktop computer, by using a radio programming cable - (not included with the radio), software is available for free by internet download
  • But the cable and use a software like Chirp to program these radios

Reviews around noise (1.54 of 5)

  • I love I them
  • No repeating transmissions and a lot less static noise at longer ranges.
  • Often there is a lot of static hushing noise when speaking and the sound gets dropped while using it very often
  • It's easy to hear each other and there's no annoying *squak* noise every time someone presses a button
  • I left it on the charger too long and it keeps making weird noises when I turn it on.

  • " This is good for stealth, but not so good if you're in a noisy environment or just aren't paying attention
  • n’t go wrong with them even if it’s just to play around or for serious use in a warehouse or office building.
  • I love I them
  • The minimum volume is loud enough to hear comfortably in an office environment and receive audio gets quite loud for use outside or in noisy environments
  • I would not use this in any kind of mission critical environment.
