Product Reviews

AndySolid performer and a Great ValueReviewed on Jan 23,2025These are great radios! I ended up buying four of them. The obvious radio to compare them to is a Baofeng UV-5R. But these RT85 radios are pretty much better than the UV-5R in every way. -The RT85 holds 200 channels while the UV-5R only holds 128. -The RT85 has a more sensitive receiver than the UV-5R and picks up weak signals that the UV-5R won't. -The RT85 has a screen that is much easier to read than the UV-5R. -The RT85 is much easier to manually program frequencies, Rx/Tx tones, and offsets than the UV-5R. -The RT85 has a much better build quality than the UV-5R. It feels very solid in the hand, like a quality product. The UV-5R feels cheap. There are areas that could be improved to make the RT85 better, though. Scanning through the memory channels is painfully slow, and there is no way to remove a channel from the scan list unless you re-program it on the computer. I also wish they incorporated USB-C charging into the battery or the cradle, but for the price, you can't be mad about it. Overall, it's a great radio, especially considering it's price. I'm glad I bought it.nickRT85 WORKS WELLReviewed on Oct 29,2024Works well and Excellent customer service!TroyJust what I needReviewed on Mar 22,2024I bought this radio because our hunting channel is VHF and our racing channel is UHF. For the price, you can't beat it. Easy to program manually, long battery life, and clear sound.Viktorperform very wellReviewed on Jul 26,2023I think they perform very well , dual band radio with this price, overall i liked it and it worked pretty decentCharles Brodeur IIBest get themReviewed in United States on Sep 08,2022I was so pleased with the first two RT85 HTs, that I bought two more and four 3200mAh batteries; one for each. A true 5 watt HT that's easily unlocked and fully CHIRP programmable for all VHF, UHF, GMRS, and MURS channels. TX and RX is excellent and sound quality is clear. I highly recommend these to anyone that needs comms for everyday use or just for emergencies. Retevis rocks!
