    • Decent product, but best you can get ...
Style: 3 Pack - Black/Silver
I like these two-way radios for general use. I think most people have overly ambitious expectations for these radios, but based on my expectations, these work great. Overall, this is a good product if you have a decent understanding for what these types of handhelds are capable of. If you are expecting long distance communications over a mile, continue to read my full review to help expectations. For the build quality, value, and performance, I would recommend. The biggest issue is the battery performance, which should be supplemented with larger mAH rechargeables. Overall, still a good product. Build quality: For the most part, the build is good, but not entirely waterproof. You may pay more for waterproof radios, but it's not always necessary. They're rated as waterproof, but I would consider these more of "weatherproof" where they can be used in rainy weather and should never be submerged and may be damaged if they're submerged for more than a few seconds (enough to pick it out of the water). They're built of plastic like most radios of this quality, so they'll handle most bumps, low drops, and dings for outdoor use. Ease of use: Depending on your experience on using radios such as this in combination of the frequencies and privacy channels, this is relatively easy. That being said, to best take advantage of it's features, you should always read the directions. Features: These radios cover all the FRS and GMRS radios including the many privacy codes for each. It also has WRX/Weather/Emergency channels as well, which has a dedicated button (press-hold) that will scan to find the strongest signal. I like this feature a lot as weather is always important when outside for long periods of time. Nice to have features is the the ability to turn on/off transmission confirmation (read: It will send a beep when done transmitting to confirm to the receiver you're done. Based on channel used, it will automatically switch to high power for channels that allow it, including FRS and They work well and easy to program them as such. Performance: This is probably the most argued part of any radio. Usable distance. To be clear, you will NOT get the rated 36 miles unless you have a completely un-obstructive line of site from radio to radio. For instance, you're on top of a mountain and transmitting down to someone 36 miles away. Or, if you're on open water. This becomes progressively worse as you move closer to a metropolitan city, which is pretty much the worse case scenario. Mountains, hillsides, trees, towers, buildings, and terrain will always affect their capabilities. These will fail even within a few hundred feet depending on the materials the signal has go through or go around. If you live in a metropolitan city with high concrete/metal buildings, don't expect to get good reception between radios. If you live within a concrete/metal building, don't expect to transmit/receive a good signal either. I can't emphasize this enough for any potential buyer of FRS/GMRS radios. You have to be mindful of what is simply possible for any of these handheld radios. Unless you're sticking your head out the window of your building and your receiver is doing the same thing and you both are transmitting in the relatively same direction, you may have a chance. This is inherent in these radio, due to their antenna and power limits. FRS I believe cannot transmit over .5 watt, and GMRS handhelds like these, may transmit anywhere from .5-5 watts.** With that said, I would say in a dense metropolitan city, I would expect anywhere from 100 - 400 yards at best. On the freeway or open road, you're looking at .5 mile up to a mile. As you go on more suburban to rural roads, you can expect anywhere between 1-3 miles, as even rolling hills and mountain sides will obscure a signal. As you can read, unless you're in ideal situations, don't expect to have nearly the rated capabilities. (What are they good for then?) Understanding these limitations, we primarily use this for RV travel. We use these around camp and when we have to communicate directly when maneuvering the RV in campsites. We are able to use them in close communications from car to car in a pinch, but knowing we still have to be in line of site of each other. Also, the car/vehicle itself counts as an obstruction, which can lower your distance. We also use these when hiking to keep the group together. Once again, when someone just a few hundred feet away rounds a granite faced bend, that would be enough to lose a good transmission if the signal can't bounce off anything. Radio Traffic: To be clear, these are commonly used frequencies and it should be expected that many will be using it at any given time. Read: Most channels will have cross traffic regardless of privacy channels you use. (Note: Privacy channels only omit other transmissions to keep your transmissions clear. This does not mean anyone monitoring/transmitting on your channel cannot hear you. Transmitting on these channels are NOT secure or private.) Battery performance is probably the worse trait of this product. I also use higher mAh rechargeable batteries as backups if I don't have time or availability to recharge. That being said, these are not meant for constant communications for long periods of time. In regard to overall performance, this products does just as well as most other brands for this particular market of products and is rated as such. Performance is subjective and based on environment. Be mindful of this for my rating. ** It is important what limitations these handhelds have, including their antenna and transmission limits. Obviously, if you have a longer antenna that can go above obstructions you would have a better chance of getting your transmission out and received. Also, the strength of the signal plays a big role as well. That being said, based on the frequency you use and their limits will greatly affect their usability. As noted earlier, FRS a frequency range ANYONE can use with no license, is limited to .5 watt, maybe even 1 watt. GMRS, which requires a license to transmit is limited to 40 watts, but these handhelds can only transmit between .5 watts to 5 watts. I believe this particular product transmits at 2 watts. Lastly, the antenna for handhelds cannot be removed/replaced, which also limits its transmission range. This is intended. What do you do if you need more range. To help mitigate environmental obstructions, you can do a couple of things. You can increase the antenna size and increase the power. YOU CANNOT DO THIS WITH HANDHELD FRS/GMRS RADIOS such as this product. So, handheld FRS/GMRS radios are not an option. You can get a traditional (non-handheld) GMRS radio with increased power/watt with a replaceable antenna. Before you do this, you should attain your GMRS radio license first. After, you will be able to legally transmit passed the FRS frequencies and power requirements. As an example, the Midland MXT115 will transmit at 15w on GMRS and you can use a longer antenna to help extend your range. The MXT400 will transmit at 40w on GMRS and also can use a longer antenna. These are not handhelds, but more for permanent installations, although the MXT275 is a good option. This is you next step up from handhelds. After, you will need to move into the ham radio frequencies, which are far more dependable and have a greater range with the use of repeaters. Of course, you will need to be licensed for this as well. I hope this helps. ... show more

    • Motorola MR350R vs Midland GXT1050
Style: Pair Pack - Black/Mossy Oak Camo
Motorola MR350R vs Midland GXT1050--Both products received good reviews on Amazon and I had a hard time initially deciding which one to buy since I could not find detailed comparison between the two. So, I will try to be more comprehensive in comparison here hoping to help you make a decision suitable for your purpose. I bought MR350R two months ago from Costco at $55 (tax included) to monitor my baby sleeping upstairs and to use during road trips. A month later I also bought Midland GXT1050 from Amazon upon good reviews and my dissatisfaction with some silly design issue associated with the MR350 VOX feature (which is critical for monitoring purpose). Size and weight: MR350 is lighter (6.2oz vs 7.3oz for each handset including rechargeable battery pack and belt clips) and has a noticeably more agronomical grip, especially for kids or someone with smaller hands. Setup and Change Settings: MR350 has more intuitively LCD display and signs/symbols whereas GXT1050 took me a couple of hours to set up and memorize what each symbol/letter means (It would be tremendously helpful if Midland can add a full list of all symbols/letters and their meanings in a simple table instead of diving this information into chunks and burying it into each individual function/feature section). I think a 10 year old can be taught to change settings on MR350 without a manual but that most likely won't happen with GXT1050 (with or without the manual). Features: These two share many useful key features like Weather Scan and Alert. GXT1050 has more channels (50 vs 22 for MR350R) which may be useful for using in populated areas although I never run into issues with MR350 on this one. MR350 has a built-in LED light for emergency use, which is nice. GXT1050 can produce a loud SOS siren which maybe useful in certain situations (although I never used it for any real purposes). Overall GXT1050 seems a bit more versatile with features such as direct call. Range: GXT claimed 36 miles range and MR350 claimed 35 miles--both claims are meaningless since nobody would ever achieve the advertised range unless standing on two mountain peaks with perfect conditions. In actual use, the effective range is more like 1-2 miles in a flat suburban environment and a bit more in open field. Some reviewers here found a slightly better range with GXT1050 although my test twice showed MR350R lasted a slightly longer range while me driving away from home with each model broadcasting from my living room. PPT Button is the one needing to be pressed down when transmitting. MR350R has the button designed in such way you can press the upper part for high power and lower part for low power--made switch power a much easier task. Using GXT1050's mechanism you will have to pre-configure power level in the settings and is not very easy to change in a hurry. The shape of MR350 PPT button is made in such a way though, you would end up using the high power most of the time since the upper part of the button protrudes further out. Nonetheless, I like the MR350R design on this one. VOX: This is one of the most critical features if you want to monitor baby sleeping in a different room or just want to talk hand-free. I agree with C. Hayes' review here that MR350R's three sensitivity levels are not sensitive enough (Hayes's wording made me smile, though a bit exaggerated.). GXT1050 has 9 level of sensitivities and the most sensitive setting (level 1) is indeed more sensitive than that of MR350R (level 3), however, the difference it is not day and night--both detected my baby crying after waking up when placed about 1-2 feet away and both failed to detect my normal talk volume from 1-2 feet away unless I yell loudly or put the radio within 2-3 inches to my mouth. When put in front of a PC speaker, I did notice that GXT1050 started getting into the transmitting mode a bit earlier than MR305R as I turned up the volume knob of my speaker. However, if you want to talk to you handset placed on your shoulder (like policeman does) with your normal voice volume without bending your head to get close to the ratio--good luck no matter which set you use. I really think both companies should increase the sensitive level here. The biggest turn-off of MR350R is that its VOX feature would be automatically cancelled if you press PPT button, intentionally or accidentally, even if when all settings are "locked"--my baby likes to play with radio and sometime the VOX setting is accidentally cancelled because he squeezed the PPT button. I found this a ridiculous under-thinking (or over-thinking) by Motorola's engineers--I understand the need to preserve power if pressing PPT means VOX may no longer be necessary, but auto-cancel even though settings are locked? Does the word "lock" mean anything? GXT has no problem on this one--kudos to their engineers. I would have returned MR350R for this reason alone (thanks to the great Costco return policy.) if not because my GXT1050 set had a quality issue. The Wishper feature of GXT1050 does give much loud volume which is very useful for baby monitoring if you don't carry your ratio set on you or right next to you. Battery life: Both are pretty good (for the good unit I have). I followed exact instructions to do the initial charge (important to battery life) and subsequent charges. However, one of my MR350R unit would run out juicy twice faster than the other handset would--this may be due to difference in batteries or the radio circuit parts. Even worse luck with GXT1050 I had-- sometimes one unit would lose power during use even though it was newly charged and it would not even charge after being placed on the charger. Swapping batteries solves the problem temporarily but this issue reappears later. This caused me to return the GXT1050 to Amazon (thanks to Amazon's 30 day return policy) after on two occasions my baby woke up and fell off bed but GXT1050 failed to give me any warning in advance because of this very issue.. I don't know whether this was caused by a faulty battery or circuit component but I do think this is probably an isolated quality issue since most reviewers here seems to be quite happy with their purchase. One small thing to comment on the rechargeable battery installation and removal--MR350 got this one right with a ribbon under the battery to help you remove the pack easily. The GXT1050 rechargeable battery pack fit in so tightly and there is no ribbon there to help--it would take a few minutes and possibly a fingernail or two (and believe me, I am not exaggerating here) to remove it, especially if you are in a hurry to put in some alkaline batteries in the field. Midland--please spend a nickel or a dime and put in a removal ribbon here. Charger: Both models do NOT have smart charger--which means the charge light is still red even when fully charged. IBoth companies should make an improvement on this for better battery power and life. Compatibility: I checked their frequency charts and found that first 22 channels are on exact frequencies so they are compatible. However, I found this to be true only when privacy code is not used. When both models are set on the same channel using the same privacy code--they were able to scan and found each other SOMETIMES, but not always. What a bummer since I would be happy to have both sets (if without quality issues mentioned earlier) and use them in a group to suit different needs. Waterproof: GXT1050 is splash-proof (JIS4 as the fine print specified), not really waterproof in the sense you can submerge it in water but this is still better than MR350R. Price: GXT1050 package costs about $20 more but it also includes two headsets and a car charger adaptor--I would call a tie on this one. Overall, each model has its own strengths--buy what suits your purpose. I had experience in building electronics and know for a fact that individual difference in parts/components sometime impact significantly in power consumption and transmit/receiving sensitivity. So, each unit may vary somewhat from one another --your mileage may vary when coming down to range, sensitivity, etc. So, celebrate if you get a good pair but don't get too hung up if someone else claims a bit better range or clarity or whatsoever. I would have given 4 stars to both models given their solid performance before noticing quality issues mentioned above but 3 stars here due to quality/reliability issues happened to the set I received in addition to some much desired improvement in design--I hope the manufacturers read my reviews and take some actions--those are not expensive changes at all but would be much more user friendly. I would buy the improved version of either brand in a heartbeat. ... show more
