These were purchased for a kayak fishing trip down in the Gulf. Worked extremely well. The "clip" on the back is a little strange in the sense you have to pull it away from the radio and slide it in, instead of having an internal spring that hold the clip on. Battery life was also great on these and held up on over 7 hours on the water.
Only con I would say is that these are a bit pricy.

Bought these so the wife and I could easily communicate as we caravaned across the country in separate cars. I was satisfied with our purchase. Obviously range and experiences are going to vary. I like they had an open band feature so we could talk hands free while driving. Id buy them again for this reason.

I haven't been able to test the maximum distance advertised, but from a couple of miles in the woods it seems to do a good job.

Great value with this option. I have not had a chance to test the full range but works great for around the house. Battery life can be short when you have Bluetooth and things turned on but it’s great that you can plug in to recharge. Lots of user settings, vibrate only, pair to phone via Bluetooth, weather alerts, several alert tones to choose from. The belt clip is a little flimsy, I would rely on it if hiking or hunting. Good looking product design.

My wife broke her leg a year ago, and I bought these as a quick way to talk with one another when on separate floors. They are clear, the weather is a nice feature, and they work great. My wife broke her other leg a few moths ago, so they came in handy again!!!

The neighborhood range is <0.5 miles in my neighborhood. If you are driving in seperate cars, this range basically means you cannot communicate with the other car just a few blocks away. But my main use case for this was for communication with my belayer during rock climbing. This works perfectly for that.

Bodies to use on a road trip between multiple vehicles in I got admit, I honestly didn’t believe they would work up to even 5 miles apart but the things actually work two up to about 15 miles apart on the road and that was beyond minor site so I’m kind of impressed

Went on a road trip and with a friend in another car (in front of me) the reception was horrible. Hard to hear on both low and high power PTT. Even on trails it was bad as well. Bluetooth capabilities are deceptive, only meant for phone app with no audio. Headset requires a 2.5mm (not a standard 3.5mm). I recommend to go out to Motorola and download the manual before purchasing. Make sure it will fit your needs. Not worth the money in my opinion. I'm sure there's better options for the money.

They worked good for the purpose of being in the woods deer hunting with my son's.
It was a pretty terrain area and they were approximately 1I mile apart and they were worked sufficient.

Used mine for snowmobiling this weekend. They worked great and I loved the offline maps on the app that they connect to. These are a must for any outdoorsman.

These are pricey but have the ability to send text messages like a micro cell tower. They also work with some older model Motorola’s. Buy only if you want to play with them since they have little practical use inner city. I have noticed very little to no interference but I chalk that up to very few people using the public frequency. To check if they work with older models you should do some research on frequencies that are available to the public.
