For what they are they work great. Only complaint is when you go to talk it is 1/4 second wait time before you can talk. Not even a big deal. I'm a manager at a rock yard and bought these for my employees. Everything is going really well so far... Except for the fact that our old fart driver refuses to wear one. The clips are extremely strong and radios are very durable. Like I said, I work at a rock yard and these take a serious beating. The transmission range is great on the property. Line-of-site at about 5 acres straight back. If people go to the gas station 1/8 mile down the road it cuts out completely. Expect to use these in a scenario like mine.. Nothing more. Unless your scenario is peak-to-peak on two separate mountains.. very unlikely. I also bought myself the Red/white T480 because it has FM radio and I can't live without that at my job. The battery life is great for such small radios. I'm getting about 10+ hours per day with mixed usage on my red/white T480 and the T460 blue/black radios stay charged for 15+ hours with mild chatter. They do take a long time to charge but we plug them in at 5pm and they're ready by 7:30am. That's all I care about. If you run your battery out expect 10+ hour charge times as well.. no big deal in my case. I could go on an on but I think I'll stop here. I bought 5 of the blue/black T480 and all arrived perfect and 0 defects. I'm a computer guy and very critical of build quality and durability. These live up to my expectations 100%. If you are a manager and using these with your employees.. Spring and get the Red/white T480 for the FM radio. You deserve it after putting up with their crap. Plus you'll have a different color and people will know who the boss is..lol. I hope this review helped.

Very impressed after a signal torture test
I setup a voice recorder next to one radio and then went out on campus (120 acres) in a golf cart intentionally trying to lose the signal. Basements, bathrooms, elevators, parking structures, metal buildings, hillsides, canyons. Much to my amazement ALL of my transmissions were received loud and clear. The QT Noise Filter isn't very well documented. It puts the radio to sleep and will only wake up if the calling party presses the 🎶call button, then it rings like a phone. The virbracall feature works well for this too, getting your attention when someone is calling The included rechargeable batteries are convenient, but the life is just average... I'd highly recommend using some 2550mAh Panasonic Eneloop Pro AA rechargeable batteries and a charger. The radio lasts for days with Eneloops. For freezing climates Energizer AA Lithium Batteries are best, and have great shelf life too.

Súper buena Opción
De entrada son radios que tienen canales (Climáticos) que comúnmente se usan mucho en Estados Unidos, los compré porque primero tenía que el modelo T-200 pero este es el modelo T-460 cada vez que recibes comunicación el radio (vibra) como los celulares, también bi- frecuencias, es decir usa frecuencias bajas y altas, Su lamparita Led ilumina bastante bien pero es básica la luz, son resistentes al agua, aunque no sumergible, pero aguantan sin problema una tormenta, siento que les falta nitidez en la bocina son sin duda para gente que sale mucho a la intemperie y súper resistente además que se comunican perfecto con otros modelos de Motorola!!Alejandro Munguía DíazSúper buena Opción

Calidad excepcional de Motorola en equipo recreativoo
Son de uso recreativo, la lámpara es un buen detalle pero no indispensable, me gusta que tenga vibración, lo más importante fue la protección IP para uso en exteriores con lluvia y polvo.Cliente de AmazonCalidad excepcional de Motorola en equipo recreativoo
Reviewed in Mexico on December 25, 2020
Cuentan con 22 canales (GMRS/FRS) por ser versión americana, hasta donde se los canales 15-22 no estan permitidos/regulados en México todavía, pero es bueno que los incluya si la regulación llega a cambiar. También tienen códigos de privacidad que eliminan interferencia.
Como cualquier otro Walkie Talkie están limitados a 0.5W de potencia y antena no intercambiable (de lo contrario requirirían licencia de uso), por lo que el alcance depende realmente de la interferencia, edificios, paredes y su alcance en ciudad es de 1-2km a lo mucho, alcances mayores sólo en campo abierto sin interferencia física.
Algo que me gustó es su modo de alta potencia para incrementar la señal, este modo sólo esta disponible en canales GMRS (ej 1 al 7)
