Digital camera reviews of Uniden GMR1235-2 12-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair)
Digital camera Review: Excellent for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought these as knock around radios for the kids so they didn't need to play with my nicer Motorola talkabouts. For the price these are excellent radios. They have been tested out to just under 1 mile over water (opposite sides of the local lake). The included batteries are kind of like the inkjet cartridges you get with your printer... just enough juice for you to test the product, but not enough for real work. Don't head into the field on the included batteries! A buddy and I hiked into a high mountain lake to fly fish with these radios and they were great for us to brag "fish on" when we were too far apart to see each other. At $10 each they were a guilt free purchase, even knowing they won't see daily use. Very happy with the quality and performance at this price point.Digital camera Review: Forget this product

I never had a product like this. It has a range less then 1 block. The batteries are swallow up quickly and the transmission is poor.Digital camera Review: GREAT for kids!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought 2 sets of these for my boys for Christmas. They love to go outside with them and play hide-n-seek or just go hiking out in the woods in groups. I've also used one to talk to them from the house while they were outside, which was nice! They use them for a couple of hours each day and the batteries lasted about 3-4 days. I read the reviews and expected this, so I bought 2 large packs of batteries to go with them. They seem to hold up pretty good so far, we've already had one dropped in mud and one in water, and they're still working so far! I don't know how far they will transmit yet, we've only used them 1/2 mile to mile. Overall I'm very pleased with them and the boys love them!Digital camera Review: Good Price and it works!
Summary: 5 Stars
it is works as the seller claimed, I used it with my friends with about 1 mile range when hiking and it works very good. the only draw back is the battery drain pretty quick (two AAA last only about 1 and half day)Digital camera Review: Good for fun short range comm
Summary: 3 Stars
Bought this on lightening deal, thinking it's great price. But given our experience, the discounted price is the right price.
In a suburb residential area with wide roads and parks in between, we can't get bi-directional communication over half of a mile. We get a one way broadcast for up to a mile, then nothing from there.
While hiking in rolling hills, we get a mile range but unclear while trying several channels. One unit would ran out of battery (low battery). But turning it off and back on would resume "good battery" status.
So it's cheap and fun, but don't think for one minute it can be used to keep troops in touch within even couple of miles, or battery to last more than couple of hours without some power "glitch".
3 stars for price/value ratio.
