Either I've ended up with the only 10 radios Midland has made that were junk, or the other reviews are from Midland employees. My radios just won't hold a charge, stop working after 2 days or start to sound like I'm talking under water.
We purchased 2 pairs of these for a video production. At first I couldn't believe how good these were. The range, albeit not a million miles like they say, was VERY VERY good! Several miles for sure. Very impressive. So we bough 3 more pairs the same week. But before the second set showed up, the first 4 started flaking out. The batteries wouldn't hold a charge. I thought they were being overcharged, but the book says to keep them on the charger when not in use.
It wasn't 2 weeks before the other ones started flaking out on us too.
Out of the 10 radios there are only 1-2 that appear to work without any issue. For the life of me, I don't see how these have gotten such great reviews since we've only had 10-20% reliability at best with the ones we've purchased.
I don't have any recommendations for any other radios since this is our first radio purchase. These have so much potential, but fall very very short! If they would just stay on and hold a charge for longer than 30 minutes, I would be in love with them because the reception/transmission signal is simply incredible (when working)!

Took these camping in the mountains. I had several doubters in my group that these were just your normal short range walkie talkies that end up being a waste of time. We were able to keep in contact with our base camp while being a good mile away without line of sight (hills and forest between us), with good clarity still. I also left them on with casual use for approx 10 hours, and they still report full battery.
I was very impressed with these things at the price point.

For $60ish, you get two radios that work pretty well and are rechargeable. That's why I bought them. They've worked perfectly fine for me on my kayak trips where we use radios to chatter amongst ourselves if we separate or get too far away in the wind. The radios work well there. They advertise them as water proof. This is far from the truth. They can get moist/damp, they can take a tiny splash, but if you drop it in the water, it's toast. They float. But again, drop it in the water and your radio is dead. Because of this, I won't buy any more of these (I bought 4 already). I'll spend a lot more money on a truly water proof radio next time because I do not want to have someone suddenly not have a radio out on the water when they drop it. It's not worth it. These radios are good if you're using them some where where you can't get wet or drop them in water. Good for that. But if you go out on boats/kayak/canoe forget these things, you'll destroy them with water.

I bought this item a few weeks ago.
After that east coast earth quake my wife tried to call me on my cell phone and the entire system was overloaded.
She panicked and that got me thinking that we needed an emergency back up.
I keep mine in my truck and she has hers in her car and if the you know what hits the fan, we have a back up for communicating.
Simple and effective back up for emergencies.
And in this day and age it's a must!

I went with this radio because it was the longest range radio I could find.
Midland advertises 36 mile range 'Clear line of sight" so I figured probably half that. I was disappointed to find I got only about 3 miles in open country.
Now I'm not talking open desert I'm talking what most people would think of as country, woods here and there a houses at half mile intervals..... I have no way to test mountain top to mountain top range so it may do as advertised, but I doubt it.
Other than that it is a nice radio. Lots of features,(hope your a tech nut like me or you'll never use half of them),extra channels and the weather band. I would still recommend this to others just be awae that you are only going to get 1/10th the advertised range under normal conditions.

Pros:
- Everything about these radios are AS advertised.
- They have great range even with obstruction and distance.
- Sound quality is great as is the functionality.
- Comes with rechargeable batteries and base charger.
- Comes with Car adapter for the charger as well.
- Comes with headsets
- Group privacy ensure that no one jumps on your channel or hears your communications.
Cons:
- Headsets: quality is good, but they do not stay in your ear or situated the way you want them.
- Belt clips aren't the best, I prefer the ones that Motorolas come with that allow swivel and are detachable.
Overall:
- Will do as it should
- Definitely worth the one step below VHF or UHF radios.

My husband and I recently moved cross country in two cars and we got these radios so we could chat with each other while we were on the road. They worked great! We were never more than a few miles apart and we could chat with no problems. The only down side for us was that the battery didn't hold up the entire day, but I suppose talking on and off for 11 hours is not actually normal use!

I bought this product to help me keep connected with my spouse while making a two-car move across the country. Unfortunately, the range of the fully charged radios was extremely disappointing. Even driving across the plains of Kansas, the radios started having problems at roughly 1/4 mile and was almost useless with a distance of 1/2 mile - even though there was nothing between us. Once we reached 3/4 to 1 mile apart, we had absolutely no contact with each other and had to revert back to our mobile phones.
Battery life is okay, depending on how much you transmit. The one thing that I noticed is that the display always shows a full charge until it starts beeping that the battery is almost dead.

These radios were pretty good. They had good range. They start to get a little static at a couple hundred yards or so, but it never gets bad. The LCD display is not very user friendly as you need the manual to figure it out, but the radio has a number of good features so I didn't really mind. The only thing I didn't like were the cheap headsets they send with them. They don't stay on the ear and you hear better without them. Overall, I'm pleased with the purchase. I'll be getting two more to go with these.

Bought the the GXT1050 radios and they stopped working the second time that I tried to use. One or both of the radios will not receive. Contacted Midland Radio support via email and after 5 working days, still no response from them. If I still had the box, I would return for a refund and buy a Motorola.

We've used these on three road trips now this year and they work great. Best range I've gotten out of them is a little under a mile on the interstate so it was better then expected. Head sets work great and fit both mine and my wife's ears just fine with a little adjustment. Battery life has been spot on as advertised but I also followed the instructions and let them charge for 24hrs before the first outing. After that 12hrs seems to do the trick. Lots of features for the money. Would recommend to anyone.

I purchased 2 pairs of these radios expecting a transmition distance of about half the optimal range. That would have been 18 miles. I am severely disappointed to discover that I have not been able to use them one half mile away due to the presence of trees and hills. I'm certain I could have run a string between two tin cans and gotten more range than with these radios. They are a waste of money.

Very happy with style & workmanship of this product. So far it's everything we were looking for & a perfect match with others in our area for emergency situations when electricity and phones are out & remote areas we ride ATVs to.

Great item to have. I use it when I go kayak fishing. I tested in saltwater and it still work perfect. Just rinse it with clean water if in contact with saltwater.

The new long range and 50 channels makes this set more useable than my older transceivers. Midland's quality out performs Cobra.

I gave this to my Father as a gift for Fathers Day for an upcoming Fishing trip (the first week in August). Bought in June, used August and one of them BROKE on their first use. Claim water durability, which we seriously question. Display cracked and moisture got in. Walkie Talkies did not even go intot he water, but it was raining out... REALLY DISAPPOINTED :(Midland GXT1000VP4 36-Mile 50-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radio (Pair) (Black/Silver)

The product look very firm and good. Work right out of the box. The only problem is that the adapter is 120V which is not supported in Viet Nam (where I live) but it's okay, I found another way to work with it.

I paid $73.00 for this promissed 36 miles radio. The radios are very nice, the real problem is the range, you are promised 36-miles, however, they do not go more than 2/3 miles (our best trial so far with clear reception was 2.7 miles). This is unbelievable!!! - Some time ago, I bout some walkies talkies for my son which were only $12.50 and were better than this!
Don't waste your money! - They couldn't have disapointed me more!

I purchased this product for my 81 year old father who has a bad tremor that causes his hands to shake uncontrollably and whose eyesight is near being legally blind. He can no longer hold on to a small cell phone nor can he see how to dial the buttons on a cell phone yet he needed a way to communicate with family while out with the dog or simply roaming around Wal-Mart. This set of walkie-talkies is perfect. It's large enough for him to hold on to yet small enough to clip to his belt or put in his front pants pocket, he only has to push one simple button to be able to communicate, he often falls and so far this walkie-talkie has withstood the impact of hitting the ground hard, it's easy to charge up and the battery life has been very good, it's fine for him that you can't get more than about 2 to 3 miles of range out of it - more range may be possible - we just haven't tried it.
If you are camping or hiking or doing any type of rugged outdoor activity then I cannot review this product but if you are looking for a simple solution to help an elderly person be able to communicate easier with family and friends then this product is PERFECT!!!!
