Two Way Radio Speaker Microphone, Kenwood 2 Pin Microphone, Compatible with RT24 RT27 RT617 RB629 Baofeng UV-5R BF-888S BF-88ST TYT Kenwood Walkie Talkies (1 Pcs)

Perfect fist mic speaker isnt super high quality but works more than good enough microphone sounds good from reports iv recived from outher ham radio operators has a headphone jack for an earpiece or headphone use overall feels good quality and well put together

As a professional security officer this addition to my equipment has been a major asset.Excellent sound quality and removes the hassle of removing your main radio to respond to incidents etc.

Using a Baofeng uv5r handheld I suffered the same problems as many regarding audio quality.The built in microphone was too quiet and there is no way of adjusting the mic. gain so I got poor readability reports (Good signal strength but very weak / quiet audio. there is a fix for this which involves dismantling the radio and drilling the microphone hole out a bit more but I didn't want to do this as it seemed a lot of hassle and not a very "professional" repair.I also have the Baofeng hand speaker - microphone which plugs in with the 2 pin Kenwood style plug.This gives a better sound level but now I get reports saying there is reverberation, that it sounds "hollow" or that it sounds like I am inside a bell. Again there is a take it apart and fudge a fix to it but I wanted something better.So I bought this Retevis hand held speaker mic with the same Kenwood plug fitting, - it is a direct replacement for the Baofeng hand mic. Now it does cost twice as much, not that that makes it expensive as the Baofeng mic. is very cheap, it just makes it a more reasonable price. balanced against that the price may be twicew as high but the sound quality of it more than twice as good, giving a well modulated signal with good clear sound quality. I have not had a bad report since I started using it. On top of that the build quality, the styling which drops easily into your hand and the smooth well placed PTT button are all improved.i would fully recommend this microphone unit to anyone with a compatible Baofeng model that is having problems with sound quality from either the built in microphone or the official Baofeng hand microphone.

Good build quality but does not transmit in my baofeng uv5r. I bought 2 of them and both had this problem making this speaker incompatible with the baofeng radio

Build quality and construction is great, mic audio is a little muffled.

A very good mic for my comms unit, has very good audio quality and the overall feel of the item makes me believe it'll last a long time.

Good value but sound is a little hollow

The 3.5mm jack socket seems to be a bit faulty. You have to hold the jack itself slightly out of the socket to get it to play through on both sides of a headset. If it's pushed the whole way in it will only play through one side otherwise.
