I like everything, the price and quality are acceptable.

Bought 10 pcs, 8 pcs 777s and 2 pcs. 888s. I liked the price of 815 apiece. When setting up channel 1 to the frequency allocated for the organization, the settings were automatically thrown into Chinese (not critical) and the radio activation function was set to the maximum. Bliiin 10 bricks. They were all constantly turned on, Cured by flashing "CHIRP" ohm. Time will tell how it will behave in the future. The indicator near the lamb constantly blinks . for what. (it's so nitpicking)
Ps After three months of operation, it was revealed: out of all sets, 1 battery died, three more show the first signs (walkie-talkies are not used every day, a day after three). When falling from the waist, the walkie-talkie disassembled into its component parts, and the antenna insulation fell off (it was cured with glue), the firmware flies periodically (the record was not really kept), it is very sensitive to two-way auto signaling. Akb does not take out a day on any set, (after buying it took out)

Pros

Deshifizna minimum settings, I liked the battery (judging by the sticker 1500 mAh) in the standby mode of the station (only 10 pcs) lay for about 2 days. Pretty fast charging about 3 hours.

Cons

The clip is flimsy, to fix it)) you need to unscrew the two screws that secure the upper part. The flashlight is weak!, and is not needed at the station (my personal opinion). Subjectively, the power is a maximum of 2.5 watts. The regular program, both downloaded from the site and from the disk (when buying a cord), does not work correctly (maybe my crooked hands) does not record all the settings, and automatically resets to Chinese and turns on the voice activation of the station to the maximum.
