Great bit of kit!
Everything works superbly! Had to download a driver for the programming cable but afterwards it worked perfectly! Great bit of kit! Totally worth the price

Fantastic Little Radio
This is a great little radio. Everything works well and all accessories are working. The Setup with CHIRP Next was a breeze. Just make sure to install the Driver FIRST or it will not work on COM3.

BAOFENG Radio - Great Low-Cost Entry to the Radio Hobby
I own several of the BAOFENG radios in different configurations. They are not the easiest radios to program without some assistance, however, there are bunches of programming instructions on the internet and YouTube that make it a breeze. The good thing is they develop as much power as any brand of radio from the cheapest to the most expensive ones you can buy. Some people will claim they are cheap Chinese junk but they work well. Download the free CHIRP programming software and you're on your way!

Works great!
Another Rail Fan here. Charged it up, downloaded the app and was tracking local trains right out of the box.

Just get one.
I’m absolutely astounded with the clear quality that this thing has right out of the box, it has a huge variety of features, I would recommend watching a couple YouTube tutorials on it just to dip your toes in the water a little better, but after that you can tune into many local stations, and stations across the country with little to almost no static noise, I love the small case design, it fits extremely well on my plate carrier in the designed pouch I got for it or just clipped onto the mollie webbing, I’d buy another 3 of these things just so that I can have a good time with my friends and teach them the good things about a ham radio

Affordable but struggles in some circumstances
This is one of the standards for many search and rescue volunteers due to its affordability versus Kenwood and others. I don't use most of the accessories. It picks up channels in the city well, but in the backcountry it struggled to pick up chatter even with an established relay. Others with similar Baofengs had some success, but it's inconsistent.
