Good quality we use them while we hunt so the condition are rather rough and these radios perform very good.
The sound quality is good and power output is also good
I'm used to paying hundreds for most of the Ham gear I've bought over the years, and when I saw these for about $60.00 I figured they were simply "cheap" and low quality
It is not to difficult to program and has a good sound quality to it
It has great battery life and reception and good sound quality.

It seems the range is more limited by the frequency not the power.
The range isn't all that great, even if you buy an extended antenna
These radios have incredible range and a really good battery life
Only compliant is one power charger failed as it has a cheap connector.
Yes, I know this is an 8 watt radio with a limited range and you can talk to repeaters which expand your limited range to your community however it is a great start to Ham Radio, a vital tool for my bug out bag, and good clean fun

We use the radios for emergency preparedness, excellent product.
It's just your luck that this is the first and last time ill deal with this companylate delivery, faulty product, instead of playing with new radio im writing a thousand correspondenceseff my life
Works great with other radios it’s very easy to program digitally I recommend this product
Great product, just like the other ham operators have boasted.
This product was shoddy with parts missing, No antenna and a blade from the charger plug was also missing, so I could not even charge the battery to test the radio without its antenna

Once programmed makes a great small size police scanner
The flashlight is a little silly and unnecessary, but w/e
The size is compact but not so small that my fingers hit the
The size was shocking
It is very clear and also for those who have a difficult time reading, it has pictures 😁.Overall, I have had this radio since mid February 2018 and besides sometimes catching a bit of static (I'm still learning the "lingo"), I am satisfied with the purchase as well as current customer service

I also have the knock off version and that one works better
This 8 watt radio works well but for the money I would rather have 2 of the baofeng uv-5ra
They man not be waterproof, but have had no issues with them in many types of weather conditions while working with Search and Rescue in the the Pacific Northwest.
i like the radio good quality well made works super does 8 wats hard t beat
I had no problems with it @ a festival while working or on family channels when @ play

But you should buy a better antenna and you're good to go.
The only thing it needs is a better antenna out of the box
This product was shoddy with parts missing, No antenna and a blade from the charger plug was also missing, so I could not even charge the battery to test the radio without its antenna
The antenna is even better than some other longer than the included
I'd recommend to a better antenna - but that's typical...

It has all the features that you would normally want in a dual band radio but at a price that can allow you to buy it for your bug-out bag
I own 5 of these and have them stationed at work in go bags and bug out bags one in the wife's purse locked to receive only for monitoring our severe weather nets
PC03 FTDI Genuine USB Programming Cable for BTECH the BaoFeng are tedious & frustrating to program use a YouTube tutorialGreat for the to-go bag in you vehicle if some bad guy steals it $63 vs $300 & upthe stock antenna has a much better gain than previous models
I've had it for about a month now and it seems to work as it should.

With the free chirp program (downloaded from the internet), I was easily able to program the frequencies and channel names for several companies I frequent (more than enough memory spaces for my needs).I have used this radio in some severe cold weather conditions in the Yukon and upper Michigan
It is very clear and also for those who have a difficult time reading, it has pictures 😁.Overall, I have had this radio since mid February 2018 and besides sometimes catching a bit of static (I'm still learning the "lingo"), I am satisfied with the purchase as well as current customer service
More than a level entry for amateur radio operators, the BF-F8HP is an important tool for use in capable hands given catastrophic conditions
Arrived in perfect condition and works flawlessly.
