Long-Term Usage Review
I purchased these a few months ago and have put them through extensive use in the field. My friends and I camp often, necessitating good communication. We hunt, which often takes us over a mile from where we set up camp. We fish, which can do the same if we are feeling ambitious. We also aid our local community in times of disaster, requiring tuning comms to a common frequency (such as first responder frequencies), and again the Baofeng shines. I have seen it reach out to nearly two miles in-town and over three miles out of town.The extended battery is also fantastic. I had one of them last a full 24 hours in the field, and still had power by the time I made it home the next day. The included programming software isn't very intuitive, but there are plenty of guides online that will help you to utilize it. Lastly, the charge bases are very nice. Plug it in near your door and set it on a shelf, and you'll have fully charged communications and radio every time you walk out the door.Easy recommendation. If you want an inexpensive and reliable radio/walkie talkie/communications, this bundle pack is a no-brainer. Get it. You won't regret it.

Great Com Set
Super good com set. I have been using it for a while now and it has very clear sounding system. The ham radio works great. And the stand by battery life is great I could not ask for more me and my buddy tested it reached out to 5.5 miles it’s mainly for walking. It doesn’t work when you’re driving or anything so it’s mainly for Woodland and hiking type stuff.

Amazing Value BF Package / Kit, seller DID reply promptly.
First;There was a hiccup with my first order of this package, but the seller of this package - Abbree - DID reply to me very quickly & I have no doubt would have made it right.I bought 2 of these 2-pack kits, for a total of 4 radios + a ton of accessories. (Parts list at bottom)When I got the first 2 boxes, they were missing fully HALF of the promised parts.Normally I don't react, but in this case, I saw what seemed to be quite a few negative reviews / poor seller feedback & kind of freaked out, thinking I just bought from a cruddy seller & was in for a hassle. I thought I'd be forced to return the whole thing & start all over again.It wasn't encouraging when I went to contact Amazon support & they told me to contact the seller, but the seller's contact bot directed me back to amazon cust. svc. in a nice little loop.That said; amazon suggested they re-ship the order. I wasn't confident it would work, but not only did it arrive about 5+ days earlier than promised, this time the BaoFeng kits DID include ALL the promised parts!>>>So; ABBREE; I apologize! <<<As promised, I'm revising my review to 5 Stars, and I do also note that you did reply to my seller feedback posting here on your amazon profile, the same day I posted it.Can't ask for much more than that!Apparently the 1st order that was shipped, the shipper (amazon, I believe....) simply picked the wrong box & ABBREE was NOT to blame.ANYWAY.....the kit is awesome. Great value for the money. I started pricing out what It would cost to manually piece together all the parts & trust me; it's much easier & cheaper to get this kit.Everything seems in order; all promised parts are there, so far everything seems to work perfectly, etc..Now I just have to learn how to use these things!Included in this kit I bought are:1) Portable Radio,2) 3800mAh Extended Battery,3) US Base Charger,4) USB Charger Cable,5) Programming Cable,6) Belt clip,7) The sling ( Lanyard?)8) Earpiece,9) Stubby antennas (Abbree Brand)10) AND 15.6" Whip antennas (I believe also ABBREE Brand)FWIW: I've seen very mixed reviews on the stubby, 6CM tiny antennas (Bullet? Stub? Shortie?). All the ABBREE-Branded antennas seem of exceptional quality. They even came with a little rubber gasket in case there is any gap between the radio + antenna base! There was zero gap for me, but I installed it anyway, as it seems prudent. If I'm wrong; it's brain-dead easy to remove.Again; Abbree showed themselves to be responsive to the initial mix-up, the kit is IMO a phenomenal value, and I'm happy.Thank You!
