A great product from a respected name

Pros Highly capable radios with easily configurable options.
Cons I'd like to have seen NiMh batteries instead of NiCads.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased my Motorola T5950 "Talkabout" radios at my local Sam's Club (WalMart) a couple of months ago. The package included two radios, two rechargeable Ni-Cad battery packs, a desk charger (that will charge both systems at the same time), and two earphone/microphone sets that can be used as...

Pros Excellent feature packed radios, NOAA weather channel, clear sound, good range.
Cons The drop in charger only works with the supplied battery packs.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased these 2 units including the drop in charger for $70, less a $10 mail in rebate, at Costco a month ago. Since then we have used them skiing and for general 2-way communications where cell service was not available. Overall good radios with excellent range and features. Solid feel in the...

Overall Good Walkie Talkie Read in depth test

Pros Great radio at good price.
Cons Batteries... like most
Recommended it? Yes

I got a pair of T5950's on EBAY ($45) good deal in itself because they were new and the person had never opened the sealed container. The radios have that 'Motorola' solid feel with nice balance (others I've owned 'feel' so flimsey and cheap). The NOAA weather is real handy and the sensitivity is... Read full review »

Great performance

Pros Good Range, NOAA weather channel, rechargeable
Cons They sink, clip is flimsy.
Recommended it? Yes

I had a pair of these for over a year and range was improved over the 2 mile models. The less obstacles, the better the distance. On open water, they worked just fine over 4+ miles. I no longer have a pair tough... they sink. learned that the hard way. So a free one is available on the bottom of... Read full review »

Highly satisfied

Pros Very feature-rich, great sound quality, NOAA, 99 codes, comes with earbud headsets, NiCD...
Cons Heavier than some others
Recommended it? Yes

I admit we haven't done distance tests on them, bit reviews elsewhere indicated the range on these is very good. I was more after features and sound quality. The sound quality was rated very good elsewhere, and I agree. I have a friend with a few different GMRS units, but this one sounds better... Read full review »

Don't waste your money.

Pros The sound quality is okay if two radios close than 0.1 mile.
Cons The range is very small (actual range < 0.3 mile).
Recommended it? No

I just got one Talkabout T5950 from Costco. The package says the range is up to 5 miles. I tested mine, the actual range is less than 0.3 mile. Once apart away from 0.3 mile, I couldn't communicate with another radio. This is a really poor product I've ever seen, compared with its price and the... Read full review »
