Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Motorola T9500XLR 25-Mile 2-Way Radio Pair

Customer Review: Newer isn't always better
Summary: 2 Stars

I purchased these to replace my aging T7200's, but there is no comparison. The 7200's are far better. The 9500XLR have very poor sound quality (very tinny, like talking in a can), the volume doesn't go high enough, and the reception is poor. I spent a few days using these two models side-by-side and the weaknesses in these radios jump out immediately. I am happy to say that Amazon accepted my return. Don't make the same mistake I did. Look for a different model.

Customer Review: Necessary for noisy environment
Summary: 5 Stars

Don't buy the Motorola handled radios without this or the ear phone based product if you plan to use the radio in a noisy environment (particularly if they are required to wear hearing protection). Even with the vibrate alarm, our employees were often missing talk requests. With the clip on speaker and microphone, the sound is placed closer to the ears and is heard much easier. The radio also need not be removed from the worn position to talk back...

Customer Review: Good Way to Keep in Touch
Summary: 3 Stars

I bought these radios primarily to take on a family cruise & overall was satisfied with them. I was able to track down family members or communicate with family members that stayed in another room pretty easily. The hard part was either the battery running out (need to recharge daily), or someone not having the radio with them, or someone not knowing fully how to operate it (it's not difficult). Overall it's a good radio for what it's intended to do.

Customer Review: They are OK
Summary: 3 Stars

I have purchased Motorola 2-way radios in the past to use in our place of business. Because it was time to replace the radios, I read the reviews and purchased these.

The biggest problem I have with the radios is the lack of clarity. It is very difficult to understand what anyone says.

They hold a charge nicely, and seem to be sturdy, but if you can't understand what someone says, they don't seem to stand up to the hype.

Customer Review: Sewer Pipe Audio Quality
Summary: 1 Stars

Though the radios had some good features, the bad sound quality trumped all of them. I had to frequently ask for repeats because the sound was so bad, even at close range. I don't know whether it is really cheap speakers or bad processing but it sounds like you are talking down a long length of plastic tubing.

There are other radios for under $100.00 that work much, much better.

I just returned the T9500XLRs.
