What an absolute bargain these radios are. When put to a comparison test with my Motorola T6222 radios these Binatones just had the edge.
The Motorola T6222 was held as a bench mark for PMR 446 radios by many. An excellent radio in many respects and they have been around for a long time. They were a very expensive radio when available.
When I did a comparison over a line of site range of some 10 miles, yes 10 miles, I live in Yorkshire and there is line of site between Holme Moss and Emley Moor of 10 miles or more, tested on the same day between these points the Motorolas just worked, lifting the squelch and giving a slightly noisy signal whilst the Binatones easily lifted the squelch and gave a slightly cleaner signal.
The Binatones are really nice, have a lot of calling facilities, look very professional and are exceedingly cheap. The build is flimsier than the rugged Motorolas but not adversely so.
They have a 9th channel facility, with the radio turned off press in and hold the up and down buttons then switch the radio on. Hey voilà channel 9.
They get top marks from me on price, looks and top performance communication wise.

I do not normally write these kind of things but I was so impressed with these units on a recent visit to Turkey that I felt compelled to post a review.
I bought these for a holiday in turkey for when we were out and about and wanted to keep in touch if we wandered off around the local area (mobile calls are horrendously expensive) They worked fine at close range (as you would expect) but on the last night my wife and I ventured out for a meal leaving our parents at the villa. We cought a boat across the bay to the local fishing village and were absolutely stunned to be able to use them when we in the restaurant. I have measured it on google maps and it was 6.5kms from the villa to the restaurant and the reception was absolutley clear - no adjusting anything - just press the button and talk. I know they say they are good for 8kms in open ground but didn't expect it for the money. They are small and lightweight to hook on the pocket of your shorts and look the business. Would recommend once you are happy with the settigns to "keylock" the buttons as it easy to adjust frequencies accidently by leaning against the buttons. All in all I am very very impressed and would recommend.

Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought these for my husband to use for work, as his old ones had died after 6 years hard work ! His comment is this.
" These two way radio's are miles better than my old one's, the range is excellent and they are very clear, and easy to use, which we do need as we have to use them in rather noisy conditions, they are reasonably robust and very well made. I would highly recommend them for use at work, AND AS AN ADDED BONUS THEY ARE HALF THE PRICE OF PROFESSIONAL ONES ! They are not a children's toy, they are also cheaper than Argos so well done Amazon " I highly recommend them.
So there you are, endorsed by one happy husband !

Binatone Action 950 Long Range Two Way Radio
Very pleased with this walkie talkie set. Speech is clear and easy to hear, even as far as 5 miles with line of sight.

Twoway radio
I found the two way radio quite useful and the sound was quite clear and understandable. It was easy to use once you got the hang of the controls. Read more

Solid construction, fair range, easy-to-use.
The quoted range is, obviously, optimistic and assumes perfect conditions and direct line-of-sight. However, for general use within a closer range, these walkies are ideal. Read more
