- Tested up to 3 miles in the suburbs and the voice is loud and clear with no static.
- Decent range too - I'd guess at about 1/2 mile. They were inexpensive and they meet my business needs.
- These are very functional walkie talkies with great range.
- These are great sized and have good range. They are used in a bar/restaurant on busy event days.
- Great sound. Very clear with good range.
- I live in a fairly hilly and wooded area and got an honest 1.25 miles of reliable communication over that terrain.
- The range is very comparable to the $300 Motorola GMRS Sport radios I bought 20 years ago for ski trips.
- In more open terrain (beach setting) the range is very good.
- Radios seem well built and are great for short range communications.
- They have great range and are easy to use.
- These are solid/sturdy pieces of equipment, with a screw-on antenna that can be removed for more rugged travel.

- Great product. They worked right out of the box and were easy to program.
- The sound quality is good and the units appear to be well made.
- I also love that there is a flashlight built into the radio.
- The belt clip is attached to the metal heatsink on the back of the radio. This makes for a strong attachment and it is a good clip.
- The belt clip is very sturdy, all metal and made from stamped steel.
- The waist belt clip sprig was very strong, making attaching it very secure but removing it from the waist belt a bit tricky.
- They are small, reliable, and they come with chargers!
- We also use them with the ear pieces for comms between quads and motorcycles at the dunes.
- The battery life is long, so that's another plus.
- Its been over a year now and these still work. Wow! And have the LONGEST battery life of all.
- Also, the battery life is amazing. These radios go for 3-4 DAYS before needing a recharge.
- The battery life is excellent and having the built in LED light was a big plus.

- We were able to communicate all day and all over the resort with out issue, battery life was good.
- The batteries don't need to charge often at all, we can hear one another perfectly.
- Battery life between charges was excellent and recharge time was fairly quick.
