  • Like a lot of BAOFENG radios, that are legally manufactured in different factories, with slightly different features, or appearance, here comes another model!
    So is this different? Does it offer anything NEW or better? Or is this just another existing radio model in a new skin that looks like a Quansheng to jump on the popularity of THAT radio line? Find out!

    The urbanomics of the radio look really sharp is beautiful lines like looking at a Corvette or a Chevrolet Nova just look at the lines in the radio 📻 it's beautiful ❤️

    While Quansheng makes UV-5r plus, which looks like Baofeng, Baofeng made its answer which looks like Quansheng UV-K5. Nice combo, but some might be confused which ir which.

    Thanks for the review - think I can cross this one off the list! I enjoy your videos and I bought one of those expandable BNC HT antennas you recommended a while back and really like it
    I’m curious - what’s your favorite triband HT ideally with USB-C capability?

      Thank you Jon for your kind words! I am glad that these very basic reviews help somebody along!
      To answer your question, I use a TIDRADIO H3 (2nd review posting maybe tonight) or a TalkPod A36Plus (waiting on the NEW 8W version with 999 memories!!!)

      Awesome, thanks! I didn’t know that the Talkpod did 220. Will be great to see the 8W version with more memories.

    Do you happen to know if the UV5R battery can be used with the k5plus? Thanks for the video. There aren’t many out there for the k5 plus

    Hello thanks for the review. Do you know this new model: “Baofeng K5 Plus”?
    Seem to have more power in TX and has no support at all from Baofeng. Do you know if can be program or firmware update?

    • @fittoat9261
      @fittoat9261  4 місяці тому

      I have not yet found any firmware updates on any Baofeng radio! Too many variants out there ….

    Check the firmware for giggles,, probably just like the uv-5r,, there is going to be about 2194 variants!

    • @fittoat9261
      @fittoat9261  4 місяці тому +1

      Actually, they both have the EXACT same firmware and hardware!!!!!! K5 and 5RM!

    Yeah who wants to spend 300.00 for a radio come on a handheld that could break if I break one of these radios I could just pull another one out of my pack you got to think outside the box you're right you're absolutely right I'm not going to spend $300 for a radio and worried about it getting broke and I'll have it mostly in my backpack and not out using it I'll just buy one just for show just to sit on my charging desk but my Baofang it's fine you're absolutely right for $25 30 it's well worth it😮

    Don't complain about it it's great for camping for the terrain for hiking that has three bands 220m and 440 and the 2-meter band it's great and has USB c charging man I hate when everybody gets on here about a radio and complains sound like a bunch of whining babies it's a great radio you want to spend $300 on the radio and get it broke not me I'll buy two or three of them just to have around they're great radio Baofeng does it again and they keep getting better and better every production every time they come out with a new radio it's always good who cares if the knob looks like the quad Sheen whatever the hell it's called I like the knob I think it's cool it's more up-to-date it's sporty and I loved it and you love it too so don't complain that's why you bought one because you're going to use it on 220
