SAMCOM MINI-1 Pocket-sized UHF Two Way Radio

The SAMCOM MINI-1 Radio is a true long range walkie talkie which, under ideal circumstances, will provide an effective range of more than 20 miles. Under less than ideal circumstances in the open country you can expect perhaps 1/2 that range and in the city center it will be reduced to 1 or 2 miles. The SAMCOM MINI-1 Radio fits neatly into the palm of your hand and operation is a cinch.
Overall a quality product that delivers on more of its promise than most walkie talkies on the market. It’s beautifully built, tough as nails, provides reliable communication even under difficult circumstances and the energy conservation feature is one all walkie talkies should adopt. For the price you can do no wrong with this outstanding SAMCOM walkie talkie.

Pros

The walkie talkie Battery Save Circuit can be a life saver in emergency situations.
The 20+ miles in open country is no joke, although you do need outstanding conditions to achieve it.
The fact that it runs on Li-bo batteries means you can stock up before heading out and not have to worry about a dead unit.
The price is a surprise given the overall outstanding build quality and performance.

Cons

Volume can sometimes be an issue in crowded places.
Belt clip is not as robust as we’d like it to be.
Access to longer range channels can sometimes be a challenge.
