First let me start by telling you as of this date, I have purchased a total of 60 of the H-777 radios and have had NO, that’s “0” bad radios, batteries or chargers upon delivery. In fact after using these radios (most of them) for over 4 months, I have had absolutely no problems or issues arise. They have proven to be a very good quality, very reliable and MOST AFFORDABLE solution to the alternative. These radios are serving in just about every capacity you can think of, from maintenance, grounds keeping, sanitation, transportation and miscellaneous staff, all the way to security, safety, Fire/EMS and facility operations. We cover over 35acres and while a large portion of the radios see daily use, we have additional radios that are placed in service on an “as needed” basis during out special events. The only performance issue we experienced was during our initial testing period of the first ten radios I ordered. The stock antenna that comes on the radios only allowed us to achieve about 3/10’s of a mile in distance from radio to radio. We opted to replace them with the Retevis RHD-701 Walkie Talkie Antenna and we’re very pleased with the end result. We increased our range to just under 1 mile in an urban area using one radio inside a single story, concrete block, asphalt shingled roof building and the other radio standing from ground level in a residential neighborhood. The antennas were well worth the small additional cost.Now, keep in mind the belt clips aren’t the strongest, some of the accessories aren’t of the highest quality and the radios, while quite durable, all have there weaknesses and while Retevis appears to be making huge strides to improve there products (and reached success in many of the areas with certain products), still have a ways to go. But people, also be REALISTIC in what you’re getting for the price. Come on now, you’re paying on average just over $11 US per radio which includes the radio, antenna, rechargeable battery, battery charger, belt clip and carry strap for ..........”$11 US a radio” ...... If you can’t accept that at this price, these radios will have their limitations, and as with ANY product you buy, you weigh the good with the bad versus the ever increasing demands of smaller and smaller budgets to work with, then you’re the wrong person to be making such a purchase to begin with. For the money you can’t go wrong and there’s no way to beat such an affordable price for what you’re getting. Add to this the EXCEPTIONAL, OUTSTANDING AND pleasant customer service, (something that all businesses could take a lesson from this company on providing at such a high standard) and you end up with a win win win. I was tasked with upgrading our old vhf system and equipment and was dreading the daunting task of trying to figure out how to achieve purchasing enough quality resources needed with the almost nonexistent budget and Retevis answered the need in all areas. I’m a true fan, even though they still have room for improvement in certain areas, am confident they will reach these goals. NOTE, these are my personal opinions, I have not been paid or compensated in any way from any outside influence. My back ground is over 30 in the 911 Communications and over 35 years in the Fire/EMS field operations, over 22 years in the Security Industry. I am not a qualified, certified radio technician nor do I hold any degrees in the radio communications field. I have made my comments solely based on my “life experiences” and offer them to you in hopes it will help you decide if this product is right for you or not. Good luck with achieving your endeavors and thanks for taking the time to read a long winded review.

These are awesome affordable programmable radios. I needed these for my work crew in a lumber yard. We have been using the midland radios for years and needing to replace them at a rate of about 2 per month for various reasons. These are much more clear, and easier to find a channel that has little to no interference. The size is just about perfect but the antenna is a bit awkward and soft (you can buy aftermarket smaller ridged antennas) comes with 1 programming cable and 1 small disc that took forever to find because nothing said that these would be found inside 1 of the 20 individually packaged radios. We were not planning to use all 20 at once because we need backups for when we inevitably run 1 over with our forklifts. Once I found the programming accessories I had to figure out how to use them because there is no instructions to go along with them. I think I am very tech savvy and I had to look up on YouTube how to program them. The software has a help option that I could not get to work at all. we were originally going to just leave the radios in the default mode but we ran into a few problems, the channel knob is very easy to turn and the way we use the radio we would accidently turn to another channel and not here the voice tell us we had done so. We only needed to use 1 channel so I programmed all 16 channels to be the same. Which isn’t as easy as I would like because the program won’t default to change the frequency to 1 station. It wants to step the channels equally apart, so I had to set each channel 1 at a time. Also: the flashlight is 100% useless, the default voice is very annoying, 2 of the 20 radios were not programmed at all (they turned on but nothing happened until I programmed them), I wish there was a report chirp or something after the call ends, I wish there was a ring out function, I wish the radio chargers were a little better built because the charging light doesn’t come on sometimes and the radios don’t stay in the base if you try to store them in a vehicle.Bottom line these are great radios for very little money with minor flaws that can mostly be overlooked for the clarity and range

Purchased 120 radios total for High School football officials to use during games for crew communication. As of today we are 60 percent through the season and the radios are holding up well. We've had 3 out of box failures and will be submitting warranty claims soon. So far they are performing as we'd hoped, even in the rain. Will provide update on warranty replacement.UPDATE - 1/5/19Finished the season and still had only 3 radio failures in total. Unfortunately, we had about a dozen earpiece failures. While the earpieces are a bit of a disappointment, the radios help up incredibly well. Will send in for warranty replacement of the radios and provide update afterwards. Decisded to not worry about getting replacements for the earpieces as most of the officials switched to a "FBI" style earpiece.

Our company bought several of these to help us coordinate employees in various large office spaces. They arrived quickly, are priced fairly, and offer a great value. I had no defects in the units I received, the included programming cable and software made setting them up a breeze.A few points of clarification - these units operate in GMRS frequencies, transmit at greater than 0.5w, and have a removable antenna. They require a license with the FCC to use. They also come pre programmed to operate in wide band mode, but that is disallowed since 2013. Setting them up to our licensed frequencies and for narrowband use was trivially easy, but needs to be done to mitigate risk to your business.Range far exceeds our needs, even communicating from floor to floor and building to building.Do your diligence before committing to a frequency for your deployment!We will continue to purchase these products from this vendor due to our satisfaction. You will likely feel the same.
