Review on πŸ“» Retevis RT-5R Dual Band Two Way Radios: Long Range, High Power 128CH 2 Way Radio with Flashlight - 6 Pack by Derek Jha

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great radios, but belt clips don't last long.

I like almost everything about these radios. You get a lot of features for the price. They're loud, have a long range, and seem to work well for live performances. My only complaint (and I think it's a big one and applies to other Retevis radios like the RT7) is that the belt clips just don't last long. 5 of the 6 radios in this pack have broken belt clips and I've only had them for about 2 weeks. The small broomstick holding the clip and spring assembly will slip out with normal use and the clip will actually fall apart. If you lose the needle (which almost always happens), you're out of luck. The clip for all Retevis radios urgently needs a revision. If you have a solution to this I will update my review.

Pros
  • cool product
