Ideal size, and very good reception and transmission. The battery, of course, doesn't last long, but the size is very convenient. If you can download the corresponding app, you can also program the frequencies, making it more convenient to use for non-experts.

Okay for the money, but very loud volume that doesn't go down, fine for outdoor noisy environments but if you want to listen to the radio at home it's impossible not to disturb those around you.. The battery lasts quite a while, the channels are 16 of which only 3 are unlocked. I will return as soon as I manage to purchase the programming cable which I consider essential.

Slow battery charging. It requires a programming cable to input PMR frequencies. The frequencies stored in its memory are not legal. It requires a radio amateur license, as using it without a license is illegal. If found on you during a random check, it can lead to serious legal problems, even immediate arrest. Pay attention and make sure to have the necessary license

Problem with the battery and you can't find replacements, after two years the batteries have become useless...... They told me it's better to throw it away and get a new one

A very compact and versatile machine is the speaker.
It has a radio as well as a flashlight.
In the VHF frequencies, where you can store memories, it does not have many options for broadcasting because the machine is mainly for use in UHF.
With sufficient power in UHF and proper modulation.
The only downside is that all programming is done through a computer to pass memories and subtones.
I highly recommend it without reservation!!!!

After almost 2 years of use, I can say the following: a simple machine with many tricks for its price, especially if you program it correctly. Would I recommend it for professionals? NO. Unfortunately, Baofeng products in general have no warranty support, and the worst part about this one (not the other Baofeng models) is that it is almost impossible to find batteries after 1.5-2 years when the lithium starts to deteriorate. In fact, at a well-known wireless store, they told me, "Well, with this price, you just throw it away when the battery dies." Tragic philosophy and way of thinking.

Amazing purchase for professionals who need communication at short distances, as it is compact in size and with the purchase of the cable, you can add almost any channels you want with its free software.... Additionally, no license is required if you use the free channels

It is a small and convenient UHF receiver suitable for intercommunication. In a 5-story apartment building, you can communicate normally without interference. The battery lasts for 8-10 hours without any problem. I would prefer it to take AAA batteries, which offer more options for rechargeable ones or even from the kiosk if needed. It has a standard flashlight, you can listen to the radio, and there is also a headset with a microphone and a PTT button in the package. The charger can be used with any micro USB cable, but to connect it to the computer and program it, you need the special micro USB programming cable. It is not for free use, you need to have a radio amateur license to own and use it. However, if you set it to PMR frequencies and 0.5 watts, it meets the specifications for free use receivers, but I'm not sure, here the opinion of an expert is needed. Now, as for the price, what can I say? With the amount of money you can buy 2 from elsewhere, here they sell one.

I have it since 9/1/2018, it is small and convenient with a powerful speaker which, however, distorts at full volume. With the cable connected to a computer, you can adjust the frequency and power as well as +- split. In VHF, it is weak in transmission but relatively good in reception. In UHF, it is acceptable and good for its size. It has a flashlight and a powerful radio. In summary, if you want to communicate at short distances in UHF, it is good, but it is not suitable for long distances. In VHF, you can listen from a certain distance, but the transmission is limited to about 20 meters, depending on the transmission point. For 8.66 euros that I bought it, it was worth it, not more because I had to buy the cable for connection to a computer separately for an additional 5 euros. The package included a strap, clip, hands-free, and a home charger. In reality, it is not even 1 watt, its small battery does not withstand more power.
