We have only had these for a few weeks now, but the battery life seems to be good, and the reception works well for what we have used them for so far.

We use them on lot,bought 3 sets. They do good over all, but I could not communicate 1 mile away. Could be the houses in the way. But are clear and easy to use on lot. One of the six does have its moments and have to reset.

Used these to move across the country when we couldn’t tow the car. Very helpful. Pretty clear in city and very clear through rural/interstate. We didn’t end up more than a 1/4 mile apart though, so not sure on the distance.

The radios worked great with no problems at all. The battery held a charge very well and rarely got to 50%. They were easy to use and the manual was easy to figure out.

Worked well enough in short-range. Didn't expect them to work well in hilly terrain or trees given the frequency used and the short antenna, but were fine as needed. I've only used them a few times so far, though.

Worked as expected on a 3500 miles road trip from New York to South Florida and back. The range is about 3 miles or 3 minutes between cars. Sound is clear and easy to use. Battery life is average. uses a micro USB charger is extremely useful, same as your Android phone.

Don't expect 25 mile range

I purchased these for when we go on vacation. We are going to be walking trails around our cabin and needed the 25 mile range. We tried our radios just around where we live and they start to get fuzzy around half a mile. We were very disappointed! We also purchased this for the weather alert and were also disappointed as it's so fuzzy of a reception that you can't understand a single word they were saying. We did try other channels and NO reception. If you just need the walkie part, it's works great. The battery also runs low quickly and takes a long time to charge. We use the walkie when we walk our dog and I stay home and still can communicate with my wife. Works good as a walkie!

Old School Communication

This was an old school purchase but worked fantastically for communication with another family on a recent trip. Much more efficient than trying to text or call when you spot something on the side of the road When needing a quick pull over.
Are use the walkie-talkies was a fun remembrance of How we have used in the past and was a great remembrance of when we used to vacation together with each other’s family.
Awesome great communication during Black Friday!! Even better if you have a driver that can drop you off and pick you up.

Bought these walkie talkies since they were on sale and I had a best buy gift certificate. Purchased them for camping and multicar roadtrips. They seem to be working really well. Of course, within larger cities, you don't get the full range, but so far I am satisfied with this purchase

Everything about these two way radios were great except for the so called rechargeable batteries. They do not hold a charge very long. Regular batteries last three times longer. But the reception was great. Paid more because of the rechargeable batteries. Will not do that again.

I picked these walkie-talkies up to use during a spartan race. I do have to say that the mileage stated on the package is pretty accurate. The only reason why I gave it four stars is because it took forever for it to dry out after it fell into the river and it hasn’t worked correctly since.
