Customers are saying

Customers value the Talkabout 35-Mile, 2-Way Radio's long range, durability, and good sound quality, with many praising its battery life and waterproof design. Some users noted that the device's size might be cumbersome for some, and that the range may be less than advertised in certain conditions. The belt clip's durability was also a point of concern for a few customers. Overall, the positive feedback on key features outweighs the negative comments.

    I am not able to give the most accurate review. Purchased the walkie talkies to communicate with my children while on vacation on a cruise ship. Unfortunately, they did not work and we gave up. I will give them another try soon. I am sure they will work better on land

    Complete with rechargeable batteries and charging station. Great for out on the boat when you just want to talk with your friends and there is no cell phone service. A plus if you don't want to use or have a marine radio. And, they float! We recently used them out houseboating to communicate with the ski boat. They worked perfectly.

    bought this for a cruise and it worked ok as long as there wasn't too much distance between them. overall though we ened up not using them cause most of the time we just heard static. maybe all the metal in the ship was too much for the signal to pass through. i also tried them in the neighborhood and could only get 2 blocks before no signal. maybe i was doing something wrong.
