Had to hold down the talk button for a good second before I began to speak otherwise the beginning of what I said would be cut off if I pressed and began speaking simultaneously. That's probably the only drawback I can think of. But I haven't used any other walkies, so I'm not sure if that's how they all work.
Very happy with this purchase!

As a licensed GMRS radio operator, I had a friend programmed these to FRS frequencies. Thankfully, these radios are considered legal when using FRS/GMRS frequencies, as the FCC has now allowed FRS frequencies to transmit up to 2W power (which previously you could only transmit at 0.5W power on FRS) - license free!
And now, you can transmit on the GMRS frequencies up to 10W (previously 5W) - license required.
You can technically program these radios to nearly any two-way radio frequency, even use them on Business frequencies- license required and a Tech Coordinator to program them.
Couple of cons:
The programming cable simply doesn't work (after a Lot of trying on different computers i've finally decided to check the cable itself And found out it was deffective a common thing to clone cables, they are all hit or miss)
The other con is that 4 out of the 10 earpieces didn't work -no sound or garbled sound due to poor quality soldering on the speaker part.
For the price still the radios were unbeatable, i'm willing to let go these small faults and buy again... I'll just not be a conciencious consumer if i didn't point out these little details.
When I bought another set of 10, the chargers for them came with Type C power plugs (used in like the UK and Asia) but I use the regular American Type A. I needed these in a rush and paid for 1 day shipping. But I guess the person who sent out the order, grabbed the wrong ones for me = not happy :(
tldr: great radios, got sent the wrong chargers
