Low range.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These do not have the ranged advertised. Used them for a wedding and they barely had a mile range, which was useless for our needs.

Posted .Range can vary due to terrain and other obstructions. Please contact support@midlandradio.com if you have any questions about range or the radios.

Posted .Obstruction plays a big role with these radios if you cannot see a line of sight and there is an obstruction in the way then the range will decrease.

Okay for basics
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The look and feel are good. For simple uses, I think these are fine. Wouldn't want to rely on them for anything important. Takes a really long time to charge the rechargeable pack. Uses up power quickly when active.

Misleading Range - Not for use in other countries
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Often get asked if they will work outside the USA. Please be advised that they would be considered as being illegal to use outside USA/Canada as they may interfere with businesses and/or police as assignment of radio freq's differ in different countries. If travelling outside the USA best to leave them home. Under most normal conditions and in reality may get upto 2 miles and sometimes much less. More powerful radios need to get a FCC License

I would recommend this to a friendMisleading description- these are not GMRS 2-ways
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't tried them out yet, the three star review is for the misleading product description. These 2-ways have 22 channels of FRS, there are not any GMRS channels on this model.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBought as a gift
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as a gift for my dad for Father's day. He hasn't even received the gift yet so can't speak for how well the product works but can say the description is pretty deceiving and am actually a little embarrassed to give him the gift. The description is 3 pack which I guess "technically" it is but they are not packaged together. It's actually a 2 pack with the third just thrown randomly loose in the box completely unpackaged. Looks like we just had an extra so threw it in with the others. Hopefully they work amazing but def not impressed with how the product was presented or packaged.

Dont waste your time
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these radios so me & my wife could communicate while we moving from California to Nevada. They worked only at close range(less than 1 mile). About a week later charged them up as we had to go to DMV & register 2 cars. Even though they showed that they were charged fully , we only got 5 to 10 minutes of use. So basically these do not have anywhere near 28 mil range , & now they do not even hold a charge. Not even 2 months old & already garbage. Very much regret my purchase. I would not recommend these at all.

Rechargeable batteries junk
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought them and at the beginning they worked as advertised but after a few charges of the batteries, they would not hold a charge. Ended up replacing the rechargeable batteries with deposable batteries and they work great
