Pros & Cons
Pros
They work fairly well and hold up better than the cheap blister pack radios you buy at the store. The only down side so far has been trying to attach the belt clips - you have to take out 2 screws, then screw the clips onto the radio, and several were... Read More
Each radio has it's own charger and optional earpiece. The earpiece is kind of comfortable and it is good quality too. Might want to get spare headsets.

I'm still amazed that we can get this great quality radio for such a good price!
I like them because they are relatively inexpensive and do the job.

One of the guys could hear us clearly from a delivery about 4 miles away.

Because carnival has an app with on board text messaging, we didn't get to test them on the ship.
Competitiveness
This is the second time i bought baofeng.
