Digital camera reviews of Cobra MicroTalk CXR800 27-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair)
Digital camera Review: AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
Summary: 5 Stars
Love these.
Pros:
No static. Zero. Nada. Surprisingly clear sound.
Battery lasted for more than 48 hours on camping trip with high use. (all our cell phones were dead by second day)
Small size. Put it in your pocket and forget it until you need it.
Was able to communicate between two cars clearly. This was really fun (tried only within visible range while driving)
Very good range. (would not work if there is a hill in between. This is with any two way radio. So expect it)
Never heard any disturbance from radios outside our group.
Nice key layout.
Cons/ Improvement suggestions:
I would put the weather alert radio as the last menu item. That way users can get to other items without the radio blaring.
I would add independent volume level for rogers beep. At high volume rogers beep is too loud.(I'm nit picking here)
Its a little hard for my four year old to press and hold the talk button.
Plastic battery cover feels it's made of cheap plastic than of cell phones. (oh well considering these are only ___ dollars) There is no need to open the cover after the initial battery install anyway.
Other thoughts:
I think I get so much battery life because I did the initial charge properly. The radios come with a little charge. I turned the radios on and let that charge die. Then I charged the radios straight for about 14 hours ( did not interrupt this process 'at all')
I can't recommend these more.
Even though I bought the CXR800 my review would probably be good for CXR700, CXR725 and CXR825 also. They all seem to be the same except for slight difference in range.
What I did not try:
Hands free operation.
