Review on Baofeng UV-5R Tri-Band Black Radio by Alvin Yau ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nothing special, there are positives and negatives.

Cheap is not good. Communication is good, but in the field 1-2 km, in the city no more than 1 km. A very good kit. There is even a headset. Everything else is for beginners.

Cons
  • There is no 2022 language in the menu, the manual is only in poor English, there is no autoscan of frequencies, only manual search, charging a glass, it is inconvenient to take it on a hike.
