I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from MidlandUSA
Posted .It depends on obstruction in the way and line of sight.
Not as good as they say
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these to help with communication with my wife while we are in the transporting business. They are good maybe 1 mile but by 2 miles forgetaboutit. For me no good, for you and no obstructions maybe.

Posted .Hey there - the transporting business makes me think that these radios are being used inside a vehicle. If that is the case, then yes you will see decreased range because the signal has to get around the metal and glass that make up your vehicle. As with any UHF radio, you need a line-of-sight to the other radio user.
headset very difficult o find
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.head set sold were incompatible. Had to go on line to find one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPoor radios
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The items did not perform as advertised. I got a range less than 1 mile in urban settings, and no greater range across open land and water. The item, therefore, did not meet my needs as it was advertised as being useful for several miles.

Posted .Please reach out to support@midlandusa.com if your radios are not performing for your needs. Range is affected by environment and obstructions, which is illustrated on the package. 1 mile in normal conditions is average for this radio.

Crappy radios. Terrible range.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are basically kids radios. Radios don’t work 1 mile out on flat land without obstructions. Great for jeepers that are right behind you but not for my intended purpose.

Posted .Please reach out to support@midlandusa.com if you are unsatisfied with the performance of your radios. The x-talkers have an average range of 1/2-1 mile range in normal environments. The support team would be happy to help provide options.
Range is only good with clear line of sight
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If anything and I mean anything is in your way the range on these things goes down to like half a mile.

Not worth a penney
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Is so cheaply made looks like a 99 cents store product. Don’t connect bottons don’t work and the range is supposed to be 28 miles, not even two miles range. Total waist of money. Dont buy it.

WEAK!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would give it a minus if I could. Wanted to use theses on a cruise. It stated it had a range of 28 miles, All I got was barley 1/2 a mile. DONT BUY!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from MidlandUSA
Posted .We are sorry to hear this. Obstruction plays a big role, if you were on a cruise ship there is a lot of obstruction with all the metal on the ship.
Not working well. Try something else.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.not working well. Kids try to connect each other but the distance is not. as mentioned.
I would recommend this to a friendDo not buy, opt for a better range option
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was expecting a decent range however range was awful and short. Only communicates 1 mile range at the most. Wish I returned them but now I can’t since it outside Best Buy’s return policy
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from MidlandUSA
Posted .With the range, it could be up to 28 miles. This would vary with the terrain or any obstructions that you would be in. It could be a mile or it could be more. If there are a lot of obstructions you could also get less than a mile. It truly is dependent on the setting and we cannot guarantee a minimum distance. However, we have tested it and reached up to 28 miles - unobstructed - with this radio. Please reach out to support@midlandradio.com if we can help further.
Dont go to far
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does no even reach a 1/2 a mile but product says 28 miles
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNext...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did not work well for us on a cruise ship but was our 1st attempt using radios. Gave up trying.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from MidlandUSA
Posted .Honestly, cruise ships are going to be difficult for any UHF walkie talkie due to the steel that makes up the ship. If you are on different floors the signal is going to have a hard time getting to you. Most people have luck using our GXT1000 series radios since they are more powerful.
Great for very short distances
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to return this because it didn't preform within three miles of my house...
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWorks within a straight line, short range distance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Useless on a cruise ship unless you are on the same level & close proximity. Might work ok on land.
