Quality


I keep purchasing them not only because of quality and performance.


Appears to be good quality for the price.


Also, 1 of the 3 i ordered had a minor issue with the speaker.


Even with the battery detached, i ended up cross-threading one of the screws and didn't realize it till it was too late.

Price


But this price is a great radio.


I was scared to make this purchase(even though such a good price!

Competitiveness


Excellent service for such a low priced item.


Solid product at a fraction of the price of other big name radios.


After almost 6yrs of use from fishing, hiking, and camping, mainly for weather and tidal update the built in speaker has died.


They perform the basics you want in a handheld amateur radio.

    I am conflicted about the overall review of this radio


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Quality of construction and material however is not as satisfactory as i had hoped but then again you get what you pay forattaching the belt clip was difficult as the spring load on the attach point is strong which makes it very difficult to get it to lay flat so you can insert the screws into the body


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Upon contact with baofengs support they wanted to send me a new clip and screws despite my explaining to them that the threads in the radio itself are stripped and unusable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The radio comes with an earpiece that plugs into the side port
