Quality


Reception is good speaker quality is ok features when combined with chirp for programming is excellent


Great for the bugout bag or even as a part of your ham shack this little ht has more power than most hts out there


I programed 28 simplex and repeaters freqs with the chirp software by choosing baofeng uv5r as the radio


Ii am quite happy with the product was able to down load the user info in a pdf file that helped alot

Price


The four things i like the most about the radio are the sound quality the long range the long battery life and the price


But you cant have everything at this price

Competitiveness


Update used the btech pc03 ftdigenuine usb cable and was easily able to upload freqs utilizing the latest chirp software on a win10


This model works a lot better than the standard model


Everything you will need for entry level amateur radio

    Ive had another baofeng product and returned it after realizing that they sometimes do modifications that make it fail to work with chirp even though the model is listed as supported
