The Midland GXT710VP3 pack comes with two radios, each with a belt clip for convenient carrying or hands-free use, as well as two rechargeable NiMH battery packs, an AC wall adapter, and a dual radio desktop charger. These radios are even backed by a manufacturer's three-year warranty.

Pleased.......2007-09-07
Chances are you're looking to upgrade your radios to a more powerful set. These radios have the maximum wattage currently allowed by law and transmit and receive clearly. Since I've only used them in outer space, they will do the mileage stated and then some. More earthly type users can expect diminished mileage account not being in the line of sight. I highly recommend this pair, however a gravity holster would be a plus.
Works pretty good........2007-08-31
We bought 5 pairs of the GTX710VP3. They are working very well, we're using them in a 6 story building in New York City. I had one person in the basement, while the other went a couple of blocks away and it worked fine.
Good, but can use some improvement.......2007-08-09
Sound quality is great, but housing is made of cheap plastic and a little bulky.
Average customer rating:
- try max 8 miles
- Excellet range
- Good Performance.

try max 8 miles.......2007-08-31
None of these radios perform as they say based the mileage. Assume 1-8 miles unless you buy something totally different.
Excellet range.......2007-08-12
The other day I hiked in the Rockies with one of the radios being in my backpack and the other, back at home, in Longmont, co. While hiking on near Longs Peak summit, I called home - to my surprise I heard my wife, and we chatted for a while. I checked my position on Google earth and the distance beteen us was a little over ..29 Miles. Whats even more surprising is the fact that she was in the basement of the house ( basement is totally underground ) when I called.
29 miles folks. thats is one insane power. If not the silly camo look I would totally keep it. I think I will return this one and get the one in black color and waterproof.
recommended.
Good Performance........2007-06-13
We bought the radios about 2 week ago. We;ve tested them it the city and they worked pretty fine. in down town they worked excellent in a 2 miles range, and still got some communication up to 4 miles.
Later, my brother took one to his job and i took the other one, I tried from the building's roof and we got an excellent and clear communication, my brother was able to hear me from the first floor on his building, i looked at googleEarth and the distance is about 7 Km (+-4miles).
The only thing is that the Battery goes down quickly working on High level.
As an overall, this radios have worked very good for us.
Cheers from Costa Rica.!!!

Midland GXT650VP4.......2007-08-16
I bought the Midland GXT650VP4 radios for hunting last year. Overall they are a very fine product. The rechardeable batteries lasted all day, although there was only infrequent talking taking place. The speaker system is clear and easy to understand what the other party is trying to communicate. However, the volumn level never gets very high. I've owned many of these FMRS/GMRS radios and these units easily transmitt much farther than all the other units. HOWEVER, they do not come close to the advertised 18 miles they advertise, in terms of real world, such as hunting. I also was with friends on the open road recently. When we were about 6 miles apart and I was around a corner and down a hill, I couldn't reach my friends. Just remember, the advertised 18 miles is "line-of-sight" and "ideal" conditions. I maintain you'll never encounter those conditions in normal activities. However, these comments are true of all these radios, this is not a negative comment regarding just these Midland units; it happens to all brands of these FMRS/GMRS radios. If you count on only a few miles in the woods and 6 to 8 miles on an open stretch of highway as more realistic numbers, you'll be happy with your purchase.
NOT water resistant at all....if it might get rained on, don't get.......2007-07-21
Got these radios so the wife and I could keep track of each other fishing. Living in Alaska, it doesn't take long to get seperated on the rivers and we like to know where each other are, especially for bear safety. Had their first real trial yesterday, and they started out working well. We could talk clearly to each other over about a mile distance with some small hills in between us, and that for our needs is probably an adequate range. The calls were clear and easy to hear, really have no complaints with the reception, transmission, or sound.
These radios are billed as "water resistant." I'd like to inform people that these are NOT, by any stretch of the imagination, water resistant. We got a little wet after a while, and I had my radio under chest waders in a coat pocket. The same pocket that my Motorola Razr cell phone was in. Whether it was my perspiration or some moisture from the elements, the radio got condensation inside the screen, and shorted out. Didn't work at all. My wife's did the same thing.
When we got home, I pulled the batteries to dry them and they were already rusting inside at the contact points. They had only been damp for a couple of hours. They were not submerged, or even rained upon directly...they absorbed water vapor to the point of being useless. My cell phone, in the pocket next to the radio, worked fine and never had a hitch. I'm still not sure if they are going to dry and ever function again. In the process of figuring that out now, but regardless these are supposed to be rugged outdoor radios.
They might be good radios, but they aren't going to survive in my outdoors if they can't take a little moisture and humidity. It's almost like they actually sucked in the moisture, because the battery compartments had several drops inside. I'm going to be contacting Amazon for a refund.
Bottom line: Good radios, as long as it's indoors and dry. Bad if there's a chance of any exposure to moisture. I'm giving it three stars because when they work, they seem to work very well, but they are marketed as outdoorsy and rugged, which they are not if my Razr does a better job handling the elements then them.
Great Product.......2007-07-13
Great Product!! Price is Reasonable. We were looking for a product to communicate from the lake back to the wife at the campsite. And the product worked superbly. Thus removing the fear for the wife while the senior husband was out on the lake night fishing. Thanks.
awesome.......2007-07-12
I tried this in Philadelphia. One person stood on the corner of 5th and South (Near Johnny Rockets) and I walked to 3rd an Monroe. I was 3 by 2 blocks away, CITY blocks and it was clear. When I got to 3rd and monroe, it started to get a little hissy, but we were far away at that point. Aside from that, it sounds 100% clear.
After it loses battery power, I was on the Ben Franklin in a car, and the other person was at the corner of 5th and Chestnut, it loses clarity. But the batteries were dying. I hadn't even charged them, it was straight out of the box.
I like the car charger, and the head set it comes with is cool to. The VoiceActivation works fine, but I really don't have a use for it.

These are Great Radios!.......2007-09-21
The Midland GXT600 Radios work great! But the Value Pack isn't all that good. I would suggest the following:
Don't waste the $$$ on these complete value packs. All you get are the 2 radios, then a car and wall charger for the reusable battery packs (which do not work- mine last maybe 30 min. to an hour on full charge and then they're shot, one wont even hold a charge and it was brand new- Just buy Duracell AA batteries at Cosco or something and use them- they last a long time!) The cheap headsets that are included in the pack do not work- mine are fuzzy and scratchy and do not work 95% of the time.
I suggest- Just buy the 2-way radios you want, they're great! Then buy seperate batteries at the store and buy the AVPH5 headsets seperately along with the radios- they work great! Don't waste the $$$ on the "complete value pack", the battery packs and headsets included in it are worthless. Our new headsets (AVPH5) along with Duracell AA's make our 2-way radios great! Midland has great radios, all you have to do is buy the more expensive, higher-quality headsets to go with them, such as the AVPH5. I highly recommend the radios themselves though- they have worked great out in the mountains, on trips, snowboarding, etc. The range is not 18-20 miles, but closer to 3-7 miles depending on the land's geography. And it's always nice to get the weather forecast (one of the radio's great functions) for wherever you may be.
Good product.......2007-06-08
Product works great, good battery life, simple to use. The radio takes the included rechargeable battery or 4 aa batteries. Charging base is convenient to use.
Great functioning set.......2007-05-14
This product was used for skiing/snoboarding mountains in the US and had very good sign and contact with a mates similar items. the product looks are lacking, but the function is great and NOAA is great for early morning weather updates - much better than surfing on a PDA.
General comments.......2007-05-14
It is a good product, works fine in amusement parks, skying areas, sports stadiums, beaches, etc. Be aware that in city environments, the range is greatly reduced if you are indoors, inside car, subway, etc. the batteries last a lot.
read the manuals, it is a little tricky to get used to the settings, but once is done, you have a powerful tool at your hands.
i like it .......2007-05-13
this has great range. it is still a line-of-sight device but i should be able to get from costa mesa to catalina. that works for me!

Beware!.......2007-09-06
I purchased these radios to use while fishing the banks with a friend. They worked fine the first 4 or 5 times I used them but then one started beeping every 3 seconds and would not transmit, even with new batteries. I contacted Uniden and they advised me that the unit was defective and it would have to be returned for repair. It would have cost me more to have it shipped and repaired than I paid for them. I was a month out of warranty so that was that. I will not buy Uniden anymore. You get what you pay for......spend a litle extra and get more quality.
Batteries Should last longer than a few days..........2007-05-13
I like this product a lot, it's small, the clarity is great, however, the batteries have been replaced twice and I've only had them for 1 month.

And for added safety, these radios receive emergency and weather broadcasts from the NOAA National Weather Service. When in Emergency/Weather mode, the radios monitor the selected emergency/weather channel for alerts, even when you're not actively communicating.

Customer Reviews:
Not Worth It.......2007-05-19
I purchased these radio walkie-talkies as a fun way of communicating with my brother, who lives 4 miles away. What the description doesn't mention is that you cannot communicate with anyone in an urban setting more than about 10 blocks away (@ 1/4 mile) ESPECIALLY if there are houses and hills. I'm sure you can communicate 15 miles away if the radio signals had no landscape interference in between, but these are really worthless if you live in a city and the other walkie-talkie is more than a few buildings away. We even tried standing on the rooves of our apartments to give the radio waves a clearer shot, but that doesn't work. The batteries die within an hour and you can charge them for days and days - the batteries still only last an hour. And withing 5 minutes of using them, the battery indicator shows you that it's already low!! Go Uniden!
Really poor battery life!.......2007-02-20
I use these radios daily and have no problem with them whatsoever except that the batteries die after five hours or so. I need them for work and can never get through a shift with the rechargeables. They work great with regular batteries though.
Nice radio, terrible battery life.......2007-01-30
The batteries take 12-16 hours to charge, and drain out in less than an hour. I am sorry I bought these, what a joke!
Not 15-mile range at all.......2007-01-26
This two-way radio is far from having a 15-mile range. Apparently all these radios does not have the range that they claim. There are many reviews on different brands telling this.
BEST RADIO EVER!.......2006-10-11
This has to be the best handheld radio ever! You can turn all of the features off, so you can have public or private conversations. Ingenious design, rugged, even has a power boost button. With this radio, I could understand the person on the other end up to 12 MILES AWAY in a forest! This is the best consumer radio avaliable.
