Review on Baofeng BF-888S Radio by Taufik Thana ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It works, but I don't think I'll be buying it again.

Simple station. With the limit budget, which is somewhere around ten dollars, it would be absolutely inappropriate to expect anything from it. A lot of people take for work, but a cheapskate pays for it twice, and it's better to take models that are more trustworthy. If you take it for yourself, then it's the most important thing, and it's not a waste if you lose it or break it. A spare walkie-talkie that can be used for distributing to friends who are participating in activities outside. All of the manners presented in the professional series are, of course, only presented in an outer manner. Ordinary channel station. You will need a cable for programming as well as the appropriate software. To our great good fortune, all of these 888, 777, 666, etc. Stations under different labels are pretty similar. There are instances when the atmosphere is the same inside. And the most significant distinction is the rivalry over cost-cutting measures taken in the details. You can't talk about the SWR of the antenna since, much like the vast majority of low-cost soap dishes made in China, the answer probably varies depending on the phase of the moon.

Pros
  • Pricing, as well as a relatively simple construction process.
Cons
  • The reception and transmission qualities of the signal. The capacity of the battery and the quality of the casing materials can vary significantly from batch to batch. A grade of C on average, with much room for improvement. There is no protection against moisture and dust, but they do not promise that there will be any either.
