    Baofeng Black UV-5R V2+ Plus (USA Warranty) Dual-Band 145-155/400-480 MHz FM Ham Two-way Radio, Improved Stronger Case, Enhanced Features

    • TERRIBLE QUALITY RADIOS ,
    • I really love this ham radio because it is very inexpensive an extremely high-quality at the same time more than what I expected for my money absolutely!!! :-)
    • Cons: uncomfortable to hold, doesnt feel very solid, no squelch knob, slow scan rate, some people get defective ones, audio quality isnt that great, and the charging dock has an annoying flashing lightFor the price and what it is capable of, it is worth buying
    • Although they are inexpensive, their flimsy, poor, non-durable quality is unacceptable.
    • The quality is great
    • I had a charger from a previous purchase do not an immediate problem for me but a sign of bad quality control on thief shipping.
    • Top quality and features found in radios priced five times higher.

    • I will do the job in an emergency, that is why I have it, but it is not good quality.
    • I'm totally new to ham radio but I found this radio to be of good quality and super affordable.
    • This is a great quality product for its price and for me it can pickup station frequencies from far
    • You can toggle back the power and still transmit farther with increased run time, and that is a much better solution than the larger aftermarket batteries for the Baofeng which seem to be of sketchy quality.
    • Quality feels good and the packaging was excellent
    • Low price does not offset very poor quality of parts and ridiculously complicated programming steps
