Review on πŸ“» BaoFeng BF-F8+ Dual-Band Two-Way Radio Transceiver- Black, 136-174/400-520 MHz Range by Adam Abner

Revainrating 2 out of 5

slimmer, more ergonomic packaging, which I really liked

After buying 6 early Baofeng transceivers, I expected more. First let me say that I actually accidentally ordered this when I clicked one touch order on my ipad. I immediately went and canceled the order but guess what, I got it anyway. So I decided to just keep it. The first observations are that the packaging of the device is much nicer, a slimmer, more ergonomic packaging, which I really liked, otherwise the radio is almost the same, mainly cosmetic. I do not feel that the performance has improved and in this device the UHF transmitter does not work, I can transmit on VHF channels but I cannot transmit on any UHF channel. problem (they brag about their warranty in the US) and never. Got any answer. so much for the guarantee. I'll give the radio a 4 and the dealer a 0. Your mileage may vary.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Negative gift
