Midland GXT1050 GMRS Walkie Talkie Camo - GXT1050VP4

Good quality and easy to use. Straightforward instructions.

I bought this for hiking and traveling. The size and weight is perfect. My favorite feature is the ability to get weather updates in an emergency. This exceeded my expectations. The fact it's made in the USA is fantastic.

Great radios. Work exceptionally well. Clear sound with many extra features and a great camo pattern. Batteries last a long time as well.

Seems more substantial than the older set I have. If it gives the same years long service that my older set gives that will be great!

Great HT’s with good battery life and surprising reception. They taking a good amount of banging around pretty well too.

Most powerful handheld I’ve owned. Works great thru the trees where others (incl. Midland) have not!

Nice unit. Quite an upgrade from my old LXT350 which were working fine until I dropped one in the lake. Overall I’m now happy I did, the new radios are so much better. More functions and better range.

Quality radios with good range. Happy to have purchased

The radios are easy to use & work great on the creek.

I bought 4 of these at the same time. ALL radios have less than 4 hours use- TOTAL power on time. All battery packs have been replaced within the last two months because of their natural life cycle. They suddenly locked up for no reason. All packs have been charged appropriately, and all settings have retained themselves without pack batteries installed, making me believe the onboard memory batteries are still ok. Given the fact that all four of these locked up within a month of each other- if not on the exact same date and time- I believe this to be a planned obsolescence feature built in to the radios themselves. I have tried all available low level troubleshooting I found online. Outside of this issue, menu navigation is painful, the open key has a miserably long swell time before transmit, making it difficult to hand these off to a novice user. They get frustrated and despite repeated reminders, tend to start talking before the 1-1 5 second delay in transmit, making the whole usability far worse than expected. A well oriented hunting or other group may not have this issue, but be aware that there is some learning that should take place. The included earpieces are next to worthless. A specially bought, better made earpiece or headset works FAR better, especially in VOX mode, which is all but unusable with the stock earpieces. The radios themselves are of appropriate levels of value for the price, at least until this lockup tool place. Given that the most used unit may have transmitted less than 20 short messages and been powered on for something on the order of four hours total- and that they have been kept dry, 99.5% of the time used indoors... this issue is supremely irritating, disappointing, and, it rendered these unusable, completely unacceptable and worthy of sourcing from another company. I am ticked right now.

These radios are awesome and so rugged!! Grandson was very happy with them!!

My son already has a pair and we need another so I bought a pair. But now they are in camo! Aaiiieee! Camo is a TERRIBLE idea for a two way radio, unless the user is in combat. I have put bright orange tape were possible all over my new ones SO I CAN SEE THEM ON FOREST DUFF OR SNOW OR IN THE BACK SEAT OF MY VEHICLE! Good product otherwise.

I had purchased GTX 2050 series long ago, I needed additional radios and found that the GTX 2000 series was no longer available. I have purchased several GTX 1050 and found out that the flaw to the "New and Improved" GTX 1050 is that my Speaker/Mic AVPH10 has a much lower volume output than the older model GTX 2050. I am sorry to say that in loud environments it is almost useless. If you use these for hunting volume may not be an issue but that is why you have a volume knob to give you more when you need it. Sad to say the volume issue was by design according to Midland.

I bought these radios for use around the calving lots on my ranch. The range is great considering the terrain around my area. Between these handhelds and some mxt400s that I have in our feed trucks and rangers, I am set up perfectly for optimum communication! I highly recommend these radios.

PERFECT FOR WHAT WE GOT THEM FOR THE OUTDOORS. DRIVING AND HIKING AND BASE CAMP FOR HUNTING.

I bought this about a month ago. I have yet to really use it. I will update my review once I do. I like the fact this came with a charger base that can both plug in at home and in my truck. The screen is very legible. I am new to GMRS radios, so that I what I need to start tinkering with. I did get my FCC license to accommodate this. I primarily bought this for hunting, but may use it for ATV riding and road trips (if possible).

Bought the set of two a few weeks ago and have used them a few times. Range seems pretty good so far and the weather channel was great for keeping an eye on the last two big storms we had.

Just bought this 2 weeks ago and tested it in town as well as in the woods. Great range for a great price.

Great product and will work well with abase station.

I have used many different brands of radios over the years but none have had the consistent quality and longevity that Midlands have. I now buy Midlands exclusively for our family's communications needs.
