This pair is a decent entry level compact two way radios.
If you are looking for simple, compact, short range two way radios, this is perfect for you. It's very simple to use, fits right in your palms for easy grip and handling. It's got a belt clip which makes it easy to carry around. You can use the rechargeable batter it packs with or use your own AAA batteries as back ups, which can be helpful on longer trips or usage.
Some of the negatives:
1. this model do not have 'sub-channels'. this can really bother you if you constantly have other users on the same channel jamming.
2. battery level only shows up when it's low. this can be an hassle unless you carry extra AAA batteries.
3. When on 'LOCK' status, you cannot change volume because it locks all the buttons.
4. volume is somewhat low and voice cracks on highest setting
