Quality

Great range, great sound and very easy to program.

But it is only a ‘great value’ for me, if the amazon available ‘extended 3-year warranty’ is purchased.

Shipping

My only complaint is that if you are not a prime member, they delay shipping as a punishment.

Packaging/appearance

These also lightweight and the perfect the size for carrying or packing!

Competitiveness

And its backed by the baofeng brand.

According to their tests, baofengs never seem to measure up to radios that cost 5x as much….

Baofeng tends to issue a number of similar radios with a confusing range of model names.

In comparison, my yaesu ft5d is down 60 dbm at the 2nd harmonic.
