2 out of 5 stars Poor sound quality, avoid.   January 23, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have to echo many of the below reviews. I bought six of these for work, and I get nothing but constant complaints about the sound quality. When you have to reply with "What did you say?" about half the time that somebody talks to you, there is a significant problem with the radio. With some users the sound is intelligible, so I'll give these two stars instead of one.

When we subbed out these Motorolas for an inexpensive set of Uniden radios, the sound quality improved dramatically. Perhaps other Motorola models have better sound quality, but i'm not willing to spend more $$$ to find out. Consider yourself fortunate if you read these reviews and avoid buying this radio.



1 out of 5 stars MOTOROLA SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES   January 20, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I 'VE HAD MANY WALKIE TALKIES IN THE LAST 10 YEARS. MY FIRST PAIR 10 YEARS AGO WERE MOTOROLA AND THEY WORKED GREAT. I ALSO HAVE A PAIR OF COBRA'S. THEY WORK GREAT WITH GREAT SOUND QUALITY AND RANGE. MY MODEL COBRA WALKIE TALKIES DO NOT HAVE PRIVACY CODES. BUT THEY WERE CHEAP. HOWEVER, THESE FV700 MOTOROLA WALKIE TALKIES ARE ABSOLUTLY HORRIBLE. THE SPEAKERS ARE SO BAD THAT YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND A WORD WITHOUT HAVING TO GUESS WHAT THEY SAID. I CANNOT BELIEVE MOTOROLA WOULD EVEN PUT THERE NAME ON THESE. MY KIDS HAVE TOY R US KIDS TYPE WALKIE TALKIES WITH BETTER SOUND QUALITY. THIS IS GOING TO HURT THERE WALKIE TALKIE REPUTATION. THE ONLY GOOD THING I LIKE ABOUT THESE ARE THE WAY THEY LOOK AND FEEL. DO NOT BUY. SAVE YOUR MONEY


1 out of 5 stars Junk   September 24, 2007
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I am new to two way radios so I thought Motorola well known brand must make a decent radio - I was wrong. They are complete junk. You cannot understand a word from the speakers. The voice activate mode takes 5 seconds to kick in talking loudly (even on most sensitive mode) to kick in. I was 100 yards away from the other user and every other word was cut off. I went an bought midland radios which work perfectly.I later found out that midland does have a good name in the radio world from a friend. Save yourself the hassle and avoid motorola radios.


5 out of 5 stars very satisfied   September 20, 2007

I purchased these radios about a month ago. They have worked very well. They have more "bells and whistles" than my wife and I really need, but is nice to know what is available should we need it. The instructions to get started were clear and simple. We are very glad we ordered the kit.


1 out of 5 stars Terrible sound quality.   September 6, 2007
 5 out of 7 found this review helpful

I use two-way radios at work and on weekends and vacations. Until now I've been very happy with many different Motorola and Midland models. The FV-700 has great features but the sound quality is soooo bad it's virtually unusable. Don't make the same mistake I did.
