Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

My only complaint is how difficult it is to insert the device into the charger base. It's nice that this re-programming option is available though. Retevis channels 10-12 are offset by 5 frs channels, i. Used up in the hill country.

These radios do what they're supposed to performance, service, durability. These look great, are small and easily hide behind a light jacket on my belt. These are very handy on the job.



Cons

Ordered a total of 8. Light keeps flickering in the charger. One of the walkie-talkie came defective. Driver got the delivery backwards.

We drove in a convoy of 5 cars for almost 24 hrs.


The retevis rep was in touch to check up that the replacements arrived on time and made sure that all was good.


Updated: retevis promptly provided links to their programming software and drivers for use with a pc.

Packaging/appearance


Took about 2 hours to fully charge, had all the necessary batteries, belt clips, chargers, wires and was well packaged.


I opened the box and immediately panicked, there were 2 boxes, each with 2 wt in there.

Competitiveness


Lastly, retevis channel 7 and channel 16 have been assigned the same frequency; that seems to be a waste of a channel.


Yes, i understand retevis is skipping over frs channels 8 - 14 since these channels are low power.


Otherwise, taking these frs radios to an event where there are other brands of frs radios is going to be very confusing to get ...  Read More


However, if you are trying to talk with other brands you are going to have to have problems.
