Your actual range will be limited by several factors including, but not limited to: terrain, weather conditions, electromagnetic interference, and obstructions.

Keep updated with real-time weather conditions by turning on the weather channel or initiating weather alerts. With these capabilities, you will always be prepared for the unexpected.

Got the radios yesterday night.
The face plates snap in; they're not held in with the small Torx screws. (this is a good thing, as not many of us will have tiny Torx screwdrivers at home) With a little prying and patience, they came right off. I quite like this. Now, the boy has the yellow one, wife has the orange one, and I've got the green one. If one of them gets busted up, we'll know who the guilty party is. (most likely the 10 year old boy!)
The instruction sheet is well-done. I think it was originally written by a native English speaker, which is nice, for a change in the radio world!
The menu layout is great; pretty intuitive for anyone even a little bit technical. It's going to take me a while to remember that iVOX is for use without the external mic headset and VOX is with the headset. They could have come up with a better convention to help differentiate between those two. Maybe they just wanted to get "iVOX" patented before Apple does...
One feature that sold me on these instead of the Midlands is the battery options. The Midlands use AAAs and the Motorolas use AAs. AAs have triple the capacity of AAAs, for one thing. For another, we can either use a pack of series-connected, shrink-wrapped NiMH AAs that Motorola provides, our own AAs (I like Sanyo Eneloop), or Alkaline AAs. Lithium AAs could probably be used, and would be the idea choice for back-up radio use, as they have a 12 year shelf life, higher energy density, lighter weight, and better voltage stability under cold weather conditions. (compared to alkaline and NiMH)
The physical construction is solid: Motorola always uses durable, thick plastics for their housings. These don't feel *quite* as solid as their $200 commercial talkies, but a notch above what one would expect in this price class.
The power/volume knob has that nice well-damped feel to it, although I would like it to have more traction. It has just a few little rounded bumps for knurling; they could have done better here, I think.
Another part of the design that should probably be reworked is that the PTT buttons should either have equal priority or the low power one should be the prominent one. As is, it is recessed under the high power one. The radio is programmed such that even of one presses the high power PTT button when on an FRS-only channel, it will STILL only transmit at 1/2 W.
The flashlight is a brilliant addition. There's a smallish constant contact button on the right side of the radio for the flashlight, which is on the bottom of the radio. That light is bright enough to find your way outside at night, and maybe even OVERLY bright to use indoors at night. (it will hurt the night vision)
Range check: In our suburban neighborhood, near to Chicago, there are lots of old trees and buildings. Under these conditions, on a clear night, we got 0.6 miles. The audio was fully intelligible, but "snowy." There were buildings between us. To get more range, I could change positions slightly (a small change in position can make a huge improvement, with a walkie-talkie) or try to get in more direct line of sight.
Soon, I'll try VOX, iVOX, the headset and the belt clip and update this review.
Can't wait to try it out in our Gurnee Mills mall here, which is laid out all on one floor, and shaped like a big 'Z.' I expect it'll work down one row, but once around the corner of the 'Z,' it'll drop out quickly.
-Good range for the power
-Rechargeable batteries AND uses AA
-Three slot charger base makes it easy to keep all three radios together when not in use
-Mini usb charging port
- switching face-plates for easy identification
- belt clip is solid
Cons
-Charger isn't smart, cant leave it plugged in and charging forever
-Headsets are poor quality and break easily
-Mini usb charging port, not a micro usb charging port
Great Radios. If you understand that these are low powered FRS/GMRS radios and have limitations, you won't be disappointed. First off, you're not getting 36 miles of range. That assumes you have line of site between a friend on top of a mountain with you down at the base. It's not realistic.
In a city or indoors, you might get about a few hundred yards to a mile of range, depending on how many buildings are surrounding you. The more metal and concrete, the worse it will be. Out on an interstate, I've gotten 2 or 3 miles between two cars with radios. On a cruise ship I've gotten good reception from one end of a ship to the other.
The batteries work well, but charger isn't a smart charger, so you can't leave it charging on the cradle all the time. I love that you can also use AA batteries (though not with the charger). The radios also have a mini USB charging port. I wish it was a micro USB port.
Privacy codes are useful to keep from hearing other traffic, but they do absolutely nothing to keep others from hearing your transmissions if they want to listen in. Everything is broadcast in the clear. Think of them as courtesy codes.
The GMRS frequencies actually require an FCC license to use. You're not likely to get caught if you're out and about, but it is still illegal. You'll get caught if you use identifying information in your transmissions your you consistently broadcast from an identifiable location. Either don't use these frequencies or buy the license. It's not expensive and covers the whole household. Starting August 18, 2015, it'll be $65 for 5 years.
Bottom line - great deal for a good walkie talkies, and the charger is a convenient gather point, but I'd bin the headsets out of the box.
It even worked when we were strolling on land browsing all the gift shops and duty free shops, the kids were on the 12th deck and we had no problem talking to them. Did not run into any crosstalk or interference for the entire trip.
Next trial would be in Mammoth and Park City in the winter.
