Review on πŸ“» Ansoko Long Range Walkie Talkies: Rechargeable 2-Way Radios for Adults - 16-Channel UHF (Pack of 4) by Robert Dabney

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Checked after use for driving/travelling

Purchased to communicate with friends in different cars during travel or excursions. Used them while driving with two other people on a winding, hilly forest road in the Pacific Northwest. At less than 30 mph we stayed very close, averaging within 20 feet or more of each other: in this case reception and clarity was very good, no interference. - More than 30 mph, with the same distance between us (within 20 feet): Even at close range, the signal strength seemed to be significantly worse. The voices began to be interrupted by hiss and became less intelligible as the speed increased. I should have expected that from a product in this price range. However, it worked 80% of the time, we only had to repeat ourselves occasionally to get the message across. If you are buying this product for the same reason I am: I would consider investing in higher quality radios as signal quality degrades significantly as speed increases. As for the quality of the product itself: Pros: They are very portable and very intuitive. in use, good accessories, replaceable batteries, easy charging, the volume gets quite high. Cons: Haven't owned or used it long enough to find anything. Overall the quality is what you would expect from a walkie-talkie at this price point. Very versatile, good value for money especially considering it comes with four.
