Review on Black BAOFENG UV-5R Dual Band Two-Way Radio by Wiktor Popiel ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Feel free to buy, for such a price, the quality is simply amazing.

Although I've never seen a walkie-talkie in person, my experiences cycling in areas with spotty cell phone connection have prompted me to consider other means of communication. After ten minutes, they were able to resolve the situation with the walkie-talkie. The most important thing was to look at the frequencies on which you can broadcast without having to register. These frequencies, of course, turned out to be clogged with negotiations between builders from local construction sites, but there are still opportunities to find gaps there. In general, a very nice choice for gaining familiarity with the walkie-talkies as an option. I also looked at Xiaomi's walkie-talkies, but I'm glad I went with the 5R since despite its manufacturability and the ease with which it can be charged, it's more affordable and has a more reliable connection.

Pros
  • A good walkie-talkie in order to get acquainted with walkie-talkies as such. It is not expensive, it has a lot of different options, and it is common enough that you can get instructions on how to use it on the internet. In densely populated areas, it calmly keeps in touch at distances of about 2 km (I just didn’t go further) You can change the antenna if necessary.
Cons
  • The headset that is included in the package has an ungainly appearance, and the manner in which it is fastened to your ear will take some getting used to. In order to charge, you will need your own power supply.
