Retevis NR30D AES256 Long Range Waterproof DMR Business Radio with Noise Reduction

Upgraded from an older Retevis model and the audio improvement is night and day. My elmer says my transmissions sound cleaner than his $500 rig. Impressive for the price!

Backpacking with friends in the Rockies was stress-free with these radios. Lightweight yet powerful enough for mountain-to-mountain communication when we split up on different trails.

Cattle rancher here - these radios connect my hands across 15 square miles of pasture. Saved hours daily that I used to spend driving to check on workers. Game changer for agricultural operations.

Have great reception and clarity! Work great!

Perfect entry-level DMR that doesn't feel cheap. The metal casing and quality buttons make it feel premium. My amateur radio club is switching our recommendation to this model.

As consumers, Customer Service/Support after the sale is our biggest concern. As end-users we want to buy with confidence. Retevis has proven that they believe and stand behind the products that they sell.The radios themselves have been great. The range, the quality of build, the features and the sound is superb. We did have an issue with three (3) of the rechargeable batteries after about a year of use. I reached out to CS. Angela not only sent 3 new replacement batteries; she also sent an extra one for backup. That’s right four (4) new batteries. Long story short. If you are going to invest in walkies talkies, put Retevis on the top of your shopping list. Buy with confidence that Retevis will be there for you.

After 3 months on construction sites, my NR30D looks brand new despite daily drops in mud and concrete. The rugged build quality shocked my crew - we're buying 10 more!

Property management just got easier! My maintenance team uses these to coordinate across our 20-building complex. The range covers our entire property with perfect clarity.

The range on these is really good. Maybe it about 10 city blocks through walls.

New to ham radio but the NR30D made digital modes accessible. The intuitive programming got me on local repeaters within minutes of unboxing. Great starter radio that grows with your skills.

Our legal firm handles sensitive client matters. The AES256 encryption gives us peace of mind when discussing cases across our three office locations. Worth every penny for confidentiality.

Hiker's dream! Took my NR30D on a week-long Appalachian Trail section hike. Maintained clear communication with my group across valleys where cell phones failed. USB-C charging from my power bank was super convenient.

As a warehouse manager, I've tested dozens of radios. The NR30D outperforms models twice its price. Crystal clear communication between our shipping and receiving departments has reduced errors by 30%.

Good sound quality

Construction foreman here - this radio has been a game changer on our job sites. The noise cancellation works so well I can hear my crew clearly even over heavy machinery. Battery lasts through 12-hour shifts!

Just got the NR30D for my wife's birthday and she's obsessed! She uses it daily on our 50-acre farm to coordinate with workers across different barns. The compact size fits perfectly in her pocket.

Love it good radio

The screens are easy to read, the functions are easy to change, from the menus, and they come pretty much useable, out of the box. Each come with the same 30 pre-programmed stations, and I'm (pretty sure) that they can be changed, if necessary, but so far, I haven't come across any outside users that are using any of those (I have done the scan function in several locations).

I'm extremely impressed with these bad boys, i wanted to get a pair of radios to be able to comunicate with my family in case things go south, they live 3 miles away wich may not sound that far but taking into consideration the fact this is a urban environment with many buildings and some trees I'm just very happy with this purchase about to get another set soon

Good for communication

Very easy to set up and use. Uses USB C to charge and comes with the charging stand. If you're on the fence because it's not a "name brand" let me tell you, I've used Motorola and these are just as good if not better.

These are a pretty nice find! I ordered this radios to use in my food business. I have a candy making company and it is growing, so everyone that works here always yells back and forth through the factory to each other when we need something. There has got to be a better way though because we do waste a lot of time running around looking for each other and scrambling to get everything done each day. These made it so much easier to communicate! They were easy to charge and set up, and with a simple press of the button, I can communicate with my brother in the back room, while I’m in the front room cooking and mixing. The shoulder radios were a great help as well because I often need both hands when I’m cooking in the kitchen. When it was time to move the big copper kettles, I radioed for my brother to come up and help me. Super cool. There’s definitely more features I would like to test out and play around with, but I’m using these for basic communication, so I’m super glad I ordered these for my business. My shipping manager has the third radio and we got our packages out ahead of time this whole weekend. She was able to quickly call me up front to send more employees to go back and load, move, and wrap items to go with the outgoing orders. These also have a great range in distance. For fun, my brother and I walked these down the road and he went the entire mile away and they still worked clearly. I can’t say anything negative about these! Why didn’t I think of this sooner!?

Voices are natural, not robotic. Great for live event staff.

These walkies are just incredible. The sound that comes out of them is just amazing and crystal clear. I got these for my security job so having the added shoulder mic is a definite plus. Clip it and you'll hear everything come out of it.

Worked perfectly at a packed sports stadium.

Excellent product, ideal for rough work; it is used in various scenarios (subdivisions, buildings, open fields, construction sites); to this day they have been used over distances of 1 to 3 kilometers and there is no loss of coverage.

Waterproof design — works in rain and can survive being dropped in water (up to 1 meter deep). Built to withstand tough environments and daily use.

The best investment for nightclub staff.

These radios are exceptionally well made and feel comfortable in the hand. Designed with simplicity in mind – no complicated menus, just turn the knob and go. Perfect for non-tech-savvy users, probably the easiest radios I’ve ever used.

Impressed by the noise reduction! Voices come through sharp without background interference.

We used these in a retail and warehouse location, and they are perfect. Great sound and durability. We can hear everything clearly and are looking forward to using the extra 2 when we expand from 6 to 8 employees.

Regarding distance. I picked up for use during family journeys to the mountains, some times to hike and explore, camping, and hunting. During those time we sometimes go different ways and being able to communicate makes me feel relieved as a father that I can communicate with my family. Although we recently got these radios we have found clear communications at least 3 miles apart. We will be testing this range as we go forward. Overall a great set of radios and accessories that I truly treasure and may be of vital importance as we move forward. I strongly approve.

The radio is surprisingly lightweight for its power.

They have a clip on that will attach to many things on you or for instance your pack. The radios themselves also have a clip on the back that is about 3 inches in length and easily fits over my belts. The units also each have a charging unit in which the radios can stand in to be charged. The charging unit simply need to be powered.

I liked these rugged 2-way GMRS radios. Charge in the enclosed dock or plug directly in the USB-C ports on the back of the batteries. Sound was clear and I tested range out to about 3 miles in a urban setting. Range would be much greater as obstacles decreased. 30 clear channels/frequencies, group calling, noise reduction are among the many features these radios have. The radio is solid in your hand and feels like a more expensive radio. I liked the frequency adjustment knob versus inputting frequencies with a keypad. The NOAA weather band is a great feature especially after the past hurricanes in my area and the weather alert feature came in handy too. During the storms I put the radios to use by handing out to neighbors when we lost power and cell service was interrupted. We were able to stay in touch until utility servjce was restored. Excellent radios.

After testing several models, I believe this is the best DMR radio 2025 has to offer. The perfect balance of features, durability and price for our logistics company.

These units are sturdy, relatively lightweight compared to older radios, They have lots of channels, 2 ways to communicate either with an attached microphone that installs easily and works great, or just the normal push of button on the side of the unit.

As a DMR radio for beginners, this was surprisingly simple to set up. Easy Programming

It receives surprising well. The screen is easy to read. Battery life seems be good. I am very happy with the radio!

The DMR NR30D is a “very” solid feeling radio. There is a learning curve when moving up to a digital radio.

My main reason for buying this mobile radio is DMR. I tried it out and it works very good.

THEY WORK PERFECTLY, A LOT OF BATTERY LASTS THE WHOLE WORKING DAY AND MORE, GOOD RANGE

The radio is solidly built and comes with a string and belt clip. It seems sturdy and works well. The radio is already a great tool for people who need to work at a job site or work in a group and have the ability to contact one another.

For the price, this is absolutely the best DMR radio for the money. Performs like models twice its cost. Our warehouse team uses them daily with zero issues.

This radio is a decent option for close range, I like that each one comes with optional belt clip and a charging station, also it can be charged using a regular type c cable which is very convenient. The battery life is great and lasts more than I expected and for close range this is a pretty decent quality set, although the price does seem a bit high

If you're used to DMR it should be effortless. If you're a rookie like me, be patient and give it a couple of days. Remember that you have to assign your talkgroups. It's a lot easier through the software.I'm very happy with the purchase.

Product arrived in a timely manner and was extremely well packaged for shipment. These radios are the real deal.

It is a good value.

These walkie talkies are the real deal they are made well and durable. I still have to learn at first I thought these were just like your normal walkie talkies but I guess being gmrs you would need some special license to use these. Quick test with two of these they worked out good pretty simple and clear sound, the display is easy to read and many settings to choose from. Good battery life and good weight on the talkie well balances feels good in your hand.

This great radio is the best value I've seen so far: Dual band analog and DMR radio with 1 batteries and programming cable.

This set of walkie talkies are built with good top quality you can feel it and the way it functions. The display works good easy read and control. The sound and mic quality is good and clear good for big events or off roading with friends. Range distance is amazing it does have a detachable antenna. Battery has good life and easy to charge I like that it has the option to charge with usb c and not only the cradle dock. The add on mic/speaker is easy to use and also feels like really good quality feels durable super happy with these radios.

One even tumbled over the railing at the top of a lighthouse on a trip. The battery did not survive, but the radio continued to work perfectly with a new battery put into the unit.

If you need the best DMR radio with encryption that won't break the bank, this is it. Our hospital security team relies on these for confidential communications.

so far the radio itself has been great. Packaging and delivery were both excellent. I've received reports from QSO's checking audio that I sound very good, and I believe the audio quality of the radio to be good.

Reasonably easy UI to get around and set up. Radio software is stable and well supported.

I'm a small business owner and am also in the process of remodeling my facility. That makes a lot of things going on at once and the need to keep in touch with multiple individuals in and outside of my organization. For awhile, I just used text messaging on my cellphone but eventually realized that a dedicated solution was needed. That's where these devices come in. They're just basic, heavy duty, two way communication devices like you see used on construction sites and thousands of other use cases. They're extremely durable and can handle tough work environments and elements. The audio is crystal clear and there's even effective noise cancelling. Battery life is good, charging is simple and they're easy for people outside of my firm (eg: contractors) to get used to using. A lot of features at a very reasonable price point. Highly recommended!!

I like this radio a lot. Lots of functionality and it feels great in my hand.

Great little DMR radio. Completely unlocked for transmit on its entire frequency range out of the box.

Great as the best entry level DMR radio for our school's maintenance team. Easy to use but packed with professional features we actually need.

If you are wanting to enter the world of Amateur Radio DMR, I cannot recommend this radio enough. Great value for your money.

This was my introduction to DMR. I am satisfied with the performance of this HT.

Husband has only had these a few weeks but he’s already talking about buying more. Works great!

There are a lot of features on this radio, so be prepared to take some time to learn how to use it.

Our security team at the stadium loves these radios. The encryption keeps our communications private during sensitive events. Battery lasts through multiple football games!

the features are great, the included accessory list is good, the price makes sense.

these feel like they are solidly constructed and durable. In testing the range we went through several interior and exterior building walls with no loss in sound quality. We have not found the range limitation yet but will continue testing this. The main complaint is the user manual. The type is so small in some areas even with magnifying glasses it is unreadable. The cover of the "manual" says "User Manuar"

They are the best radios we have had, have good range and very clean signal quality, work over long distances even inside walls and windows

This is a great DMR rig. Sound quality is amazing. Battery life with the large 2800 mah battery is a couple days. The software for the rig is easy to use once you figure our the basics. On thr analog side it works great and has as much range as any hand held transceiver.

So far so good I own a land clearing company and we use them on larger sites the range seems to be around 4 to 5 miles the volume is decent my operators keep them in the cab of their equipment I would say all and all well worth the money

All things considered, it still has the least quirks, and is the most functional of all of the current DMR's on the market.

We use this product on a midsize job site performs excellently, very happy with the overall outcome.

This radio has exceeded my expectations and made my entry into DMR communication a smooth and enjoyable experience. It’s my first and only DMR radio, and it has proven to be an excellent choice.

These work great for special events and construction sites. They are easy to use and durable. Highly recommend these.

The audio clarity is phenomenal - like the person is standing right next to you. Perfect for our music festival staff coordinating across loud stages.

I get this Radio a couple of weeks ago so have had time to play with it. It does have a bit of a learning curve because it has DMR but reading the manual and watching a few videos I’m now able to program it and use it as intended. The radio is well built great audio and I get good reports from my transmissions.

Amazing product even through a lot of signal blockers it works amazing

Birthday present for my girl 100% well made i have not try long range yet but it looks solid.

The Retevis NR30D is excellent value for the money (particularly since supplied with two batteries), providing all the DMR features desired, in a physically solid package that has good sound quality, receive and transmit.

Working docks demands waterproof gear. The NR30D stands up to spray and rain while providing clear communication. The loud audio cuts through harbor noise.

Recommended this to our neighborhood watch group. Now 15 homes have them for emergency communication when cell towers go down. Easy enough for non-techy neighbors to use.

I have extensive experience with Retevis/Ailunce brand radios. They are one of the better budget radios for personal and commercial use for the money. In fact I have several of their model and they don't disappoint in and always perform just like the commercial brands.

Small business owner here. These radios eliminated the need for expensive commercial systems. The encryption keeps our delivery routes confidential from competitors.

This is hands down the best DMR handheld radio for construction sites. The noise cancellation works miracles - I can hear my crew perfectly over jackhammers and heavy machinery.

Having a small business with a few guys, I wasn't looking for anything too crazy. I've been looking for a while and saw these so I said what the heck I'll try them. I'm so glad I did. They have great sound quality and a lot of perks. I had to read on them for a little bit to figure them all out but they are awesome.

These radios are easy to use, relatively inexpensive given what they accomplish and they work well. In the Midwest, a lot of the roads are laid out on a square grid in 1 mile increments. Most of our work is done within a couple miles of the barn and for the most part these radios work well. There are some instances where you are out of range, and you have to use your cell phone, but for a quick short conversations, this radio set up is excellent.

These are easy to use. Set up was a breeze. Made well. They look great too.

Warehouse noise used to make radio comms impossible. The NR30D's advanced noise reduction lets us communicate clearly despite conveyor belts and forklifts. Productivity has skyrocketed!

Retevis makes radios that are far superior to even the best FRS radios. These are usb-c rechargeable, so no replacing batteries constantly. The range is also much better, I've been able to get around 2 miles in wooded areas, much further that FRS radios. These do cost more than a set of FRS radios, but they're definitely worth it.

30-year construction vet here - this is the most durable jobsite radio I've used. Survived being run over by a skid steer (just some cosmetic scratches!). Buying more for the whole crew.

Coordinating rail switching requires clear comms. The NR30D's noise cancellation works despite locomotive sounds, covering our entire yard. Industrial-grade durability.

These radios are really reliable and perform well

Bought 6 of these for our troop and they perform like radios costing 3x more. Kids can't break them (trust me, they've tried) and the range covers our entire camp.

these radios seem to tick all the boxes: easy to use, excellent range (especially with repeater access), durable construction, and a comprehensive accessory pack. The fact that it comes in a six-pack is a huge bonus, allowing you to equip your entire family or group.Whether it's for storm preparedness, camping trips, or simply staying in touch with loved ones, the Retevis NR30D delivers peace of mind knowing you can communicate when other methods fail. I'm extremely satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and user-friendly DMR solution.

Mine rescue teams need dependable underground comms. The NR30D's signal penetrates mine structures, with a build that stands up to brutal conditions. Emergency features have proven lifesaving.

Outstanding performance with noticeable improvements and enhanced audio quality. Very impressed!

Hunting camp communications solved! Works perfectly across our 8,000-acre lease where cell service is nonexistent. The waterproofing survived an unexpected downpour last season.

Despite the added functionality, the controls remain surprisingly user-friendly. I was able to teach my wife the basics in just a few minutes. Each radio comes in its own box with almost everything you need: charging station, belt clip, and USB cable. This makes it incredibly convenient to distribute to family members. In fact, I plan on giving these to relatives living nearby so we can stay connected, especially during storms.

I love these Retevis radios. They always work great and are reasonably heavy duty. I use them around my property. I can get roughly .5 miles away behind 2 hills and still talk to a handheld at my house. That is great for hills being between us. And that is just handheld to handheld.

Ordered Friday, arrived Monday - impressive shipping! The battery lasts through my 16-hour security shifts with power to spare. Perfect for hospital security details.

I love it! The this is loud. I work around loud machinery, so I needed a louder radio. Ours were not loud enough. I really wish I would’ve went thru retivis. So I could get the free programming cable.

Concert crowds create communication chaos. The NR30D delivers clear audio despite background noise, handling large venues perfectly with discreet earpieces.

Well this radio it's almost perfect for my needs.Good range, good sound quality, battery life is great. Rugged.

Weekend ham here - the NR30D is perfect for local nets and ragchews. Simple enough for my 10-year-old to use but capable enough for serious operating. Our whole family uses them now.

Compared to my older Midland radios, the Retevis are a definite upgrade. The build quality feels much more robust, and the IP67 waterproofing gives me confidence they can handle tough conditions. The display is also a major improvement – bright, clear, and easy to read.

Solid cases. Excellent range. Good value. I'd buy them again. Have not had one issue!

As a licensed ham radio operator, I know the value of reliable communication, especially during emergencies. Here in hurricane-prone Florida, we've experienced firsthand how quickly cell service can disappear. While my ham radios are great, I wanted a simpler solution for my family, and these Retevis NR30D DMR radios have been a fantastic find.

Monitoring miles of remote pipeline demands long-range comms. The NR30D handles the distance while surviving tough field conditions. Emergency features provide critical safety.

This is a fantastic radio for anyone new to DMR. It’s easy to use, and the performance is just as good as radios that cost a lot more. Highly recommend it to anyone just starting with DMR!

The helmet is sturdy, I use it for work and recreation, for the area where I am, three to four miles it works great.

The NR30D’s noise reduction feature is fantastic. I’ve used it on several construction sites, and the AI does a great job cutting through all the background noise.

After trying multiple radios, the NR30D stands out for construction site use. The loud audio cuts through equipment noise, and the display stays visible in all lighting.

During the storms I put the radios to use by handing out to neighbors when we lost power and cell service was interrupted. We were able to stay in touch until utility servjce was restored. Excellent radios.

Excellent product! The NR30D is easy to program and works flawlessly on both analog and digital modes. I’ve been using it for my business and personal use, and it’s perfect for both.

We used these radios for our summer field mapping camp and they worked great. Occasionally these radios were used two days in a row without charging.

Our disaster response team keeps these charged and ready - when cell towers go down, these radios become our lifeline. The range and reliability have proven themselves in multiple crises.

Love this radio! I’ve been using it to connect with other operators on a nearby DMR repeater. It’s super reliable and the price can’t be beat.

I tested range out to about 3 miles in a urban setting. Range would be much greater as obstacles decreased.

Working in dense forests requires reliable signals. The NR30D penetrates tree cover better than any radio we've tried. Weatherproofing stands up to constant rain and humidity.

This radio is fantastic. It’s small but durable and offers excellent range. I use it for communication with others on the farm, and I can easily talk to others miles away.

The good..solid radios, good sound. They seem durable and well made.

No issues at all since day one. Reliable and performs well.

The NR30D is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a low-cost DMR radio. It’s simple to program and has a great range for use on my ranch. It’s solid and well-built for the price.

I liked these rugged DMR handheld radios. Charge in the enclosed dock or plug directly in the USB-C ports on the back of the batteries. Sound was clear.

Turbine interference kills most radios, but the NR30D stays clear. The range covers our entire wind farm, and the durable build stands up to tower climbing.

The NR30D is a fantastic radio for the price. I was surprised at how well it performs, even on construction sites with a lot of background noise. It’s a great value for anyone looking for a solid DMR radio.

very good audio quality and good range. We use these equipment in construction and they work quite well.

Six months on my oil rig and this thing still works like new. Survived salt spray, drops from platforms, and even a quick dunk in the ocean.

I’m new to DMR, and this little radio has made it so easy to get started. The range is great for my needs, and it’s easy to program. I highly recommend it to anyone who is just starting in the DMR world!

there are GREAT!

I use these walkie-talkies in a residential school environment. They are working much better than other, less powerful, ones we have been using. They have a “work time” of 14-hours and standby time of 46-hours. I like that they are waterproof, as we will have to use them outside on rainy days.

I’ve had great experiences with Retevis products, and this NR30D doesn’t disappoint. It's been perfect for my construction team. The range is good, and it’s durable enough to handle tough conditions.

Harsh chemical environments destroy electronics fast. Our NR30Ds keep working despite corrosive fumes, and the noise cancellation works perfectly over constant industrial noise.

I bought this radio to use while hiking, and it’s been a fantastic tool. I can stay in touch with others even when we’re miles apart. It’s a good DMR radio for beginners and has really helped me connect to my local repeaters.

The audio is so crisp I can hear whispers clearly, yet it cuts out all the background noise in our busy truck dispatch center. Never miss another critical communication.

everything came in two boxes with clear and concise instructions. after charging i was up and running in no time. great for use around the property or for a day hike

I think they're well worth it It's a well built two-way radio system and you get a lot of them You get the set of six plus you get each one has their own battery and clip antenna of course all your basics but I definitely like them they work great and easy to use and I'd recommend them..

Picked up this radio as a backup, and it’s quickly become my go-to for everyday use. The range is great, and the sound quality is as good as radios that cost twice as much.

The emergency button has already prevented two potential incidents by allowing quick response coordination across our corporate campus security team.

My order arrived, everything is as it should be. The radios are perfect.

As an experienced amateur radio operator, this is one of the best DMR radios for the money. It works like a charm even in tough construction site environments where you need reliable communication.

The manual has a frequency list, CTCSS/DCS List as well as the Hz .These are nice great for communication they're solid they're well built their waterproof we've already dropped a couple on accident and they came up just fine so they're pretty durable I would definitely recommend them value for the money little hide .

The DMR capabilities are amazing for the price. I’ve been using this for personal and work use, and it has yet to disappoint. It even works well on our ranch, where distances are a bit more challenging.

Bought for deer hunting. They were great. Good quality radios. Very happy with this purchase.

Our ski resort's entire operations team switched to NR30Ds - they handle the mountain's terrain perfectly and work flawlessly in blizzard conditions.

I’ve had a great experience with this radio. The clarity on both receive and transmit is impressive. For someone new to DMR, this is the best entry-level DMR radio I could recommend.

This is a nice set two-way radios they're basically fairly easy to use programming them I found to be a little tricky but yet was able to accomplish . The clarity onum is pretty good we're using them at an apartment complex for the staff and the clarity and clearness of them are really good Not too much interference .

Fast shipping and great quality! This NR30D has exceeded all expectations. It’s compact, durable, and the battery life is fantastic, which makes it perfect for long days on the job.

These handheld radios work excellent! We use these for oversize load transports, to communicate from driver to escort car and police (we give them a radio) our rough range is 4-7 miles on open terrain. It depends on surroundings. These radios are built well and the audio is outstanding, I’ll be ordering 4 more soon. This is a perfect setup for what we do!

After testing seven different models, the NR30D emerged as our security company's standard issue. The combination of range, clarity and durability is unmatched.

I use this radio in my warehouse environment, and the clarity is fantastic. It’s a huge improvement from the old analog radios we had. For anyone looking for a reliable DMR radio, I highly recommend this one.

As soon as the radios were programmed to the same frequency, they came to life and all 4 of us at the shop were able to communicate with each other instead of having to look for each other or calling them on the cell phone.

For a budget DMR radio, this thing is a solid performer. The range is impressive, even with the stock antenna. I've been using it to connect with repeaters, and everything works flawlessly.

I’ve been looking for a good entry-level DMR radio, and this one hit the mark. It’s straightforward to program and works well for my weekend communication with fellow operators.

Good radios for the money

The programmable buttons save so much time - we've set ours for quick access to different departments. No more scrolling through channels during urgent situations.

This NR30D is my second Retevis radio, and I’m impressed once again. It’s been great for chatting with other HAM operators, and the sound quality is amazing. Definitely recommend it!

Study and amazing quality walkie talkies. Good signal and volume when walking in and out of buildings, and when driving. VOX headset ready is a huge bonus. Haven't figured out what the emergency button.Highly recommended!

This compact radio is so easy to use. I took it hiking, and it was a breeze to communicate with my friends. It's a solid build and gives fantastic audio quality both on RX and TX.

These radios were very clear and even though when I went down a small incline in the orchard I broke up but the other radio was loud and clear.

The vibration mode is perfect for situations where audio alerts would be disruptive. Our theater staff can receive calls during performances without disturbing patrons.

We used these in a retail and warehouse location, and they are perfect. Great sound and durability.

Overall, works great, good value for the money, and no better alternative.

I bought this radio to use on our ranch, and it’s been perfect. We have several buildings spread across the property, and this radio gives me clear communication for a distance of over 10 miles. It’s definitely the best Chinese DMR radio I’ve owned!

Our zoo staff covers 120 acres with diverse environments - the NR30D works perfectly from the reptile house to the open savannah exhibits.

I've ordered 8 radios total and they work very well.

This DMR radios is a decent option for long range, I like that each one comes with optional belt clip and a charging station, also it can be charged using a regular type c cable which is very convenient.The battery life is great and lasts more than I expected and for close range this is a pretty decent quality set.

The NR30D is a great little radio, especially for someone looking for the best entry-level DMR radio. It’s been an essential tool for my team on-site, and setup was a breeze!

Our forestry team covers 10,000 acres - the NR30D's range handles our terrain better than the satellite phones we used to carry as backup.

This is by far the best DMR radio for the money. I’ve been using it on my construction site, and it’s a reliable and solid radio with great performance. It’s small but packs a punch!

If you need these for a group of cars that will be following each other they will work just fine. Both the speaker on the radio and on the shoulder mic are loud and clear.

At any given time, we have two tractors, one farm truck, one runner - and in the fall a combine and a grain cart along with two semis in operation.Communication is difficult. Everyone has a cell phone, but in a dynamic farm operation, dialing and waiting for someone to answer is simply not always an option - and, sometimes you just don’t hear the phone ring in a tractor.These radios are easy to use, relatively inexpensive given what they accomplish and they work well. In the Midwest, a lot of the roads are laid out on a square grid in 1 mile increments. Most of our work is done within a couple miles of the barn and for the most part these radios work well. There are some instances where you are out of range, and you have to use your cell phone, but for a quick short conversations, this radio set up is excellent.They are easily rechargeable and they clip to your belt.

Picked up this little powerhouse for my business operations. It works great as a DMR radio for beginners, especially for keeping track of staff on large properties. My employees love how easy it is to communicate with each other using it.

The audio is so clear it's like the person is standing next to you, even in our noisy packaging facility. No more misheard instructions causing shipping errors.

I'm new to DMR, but the NR30D has been perfect for me. It’s super simple to program and operate, even for a beginner. I use it to connect with my local DMR repeater, and the range is perfect for my needs.

these feel like they are solidly constructed and durable. In testing the range we went through several interior and exterior building walls with no loss in sound quality. We have not found the range limitation yet but will continue testing this.

I bough these last minute because we had a a group of 4 trucks going to a lake trip/ trail run. The radios Are ready to use out of the box, just set the radios to the same channel and start using them AFTER you charge them of course.

The AES256 encryption is a fantastic feature. For encrypted business communication, this radio has been a life-saver. It's been reliable for keeping our company’s operations private and secure.

After a year of daily use in our trucking yard, these radios look beat up but work like new. The battery life hasn't degraded noticeably despite heavy use.

Battery life is excellent, and the USB Type-C charging feature is a game-changer. The range is impressive for a radio in this price range. I’ve used it in several hiking trips and had no issues reaching others in hilly terrain.

After six months in a concrete plant, these are the first radios that survive the dust. The speaker stays clear despite powder coating everything.

The NR30D is the best budget DMR radio I’ve tried. It’s perfect for our warehouse team where clear communication is critical. The stock antenna works great, and the audio clarity is top-notch.

This product was as advertised. Worked out great with our team.

I am still learning dmr radios, and I own a pair of longer range "2-way" radios. These are a mix of both, will MUCH COOLER functions.I have been getting used to/testing just 3 of them, and very impressed. The all come with pre-programmed channels, but have a cord, to be able to do the "programming stuff/way above my level of patience and expertise". However, the built in menus allow you to do things that I have NEVER experienced in normal 2-way radios.

This is a fantastic DMR handheld radio. I’ve used it on construction sites, and the audio quality is crystal clear, even in noisy environments. Plus, the battery lasts all day without a hitch!

My wife is absolutely thrilled with her new radio! It’s compact, easy to use, and provides amazing clarity. She’s been using it on our family farm and it works perfectly for communication between buildings on the property.

Managing a busy hotel complex requires discreet communication. The included earpieces maintain our five-star ambiance while keeping all departments coordinated.

excellent product 100% recommended unlike others, I highly recommend it

The emergency features give me peace of mind when working alone in remote areas. The man-down detection could literally be a lifesaver for our field researchers.

The build quality shocks everyone who handles it - the solid casing feels like it could survive being run over, and probably has at some of our job sites.

I’ve tried lot of radios, these so far are the best. About a 10 mile range in a rural setting

The screens are easy to read, the functions are easy to change, from the menus, and they come pretty much useable, out of the box.

Coordinating between our warehouse, loading docks and office is seamless now. The digital clarity eliminates the 'repeat that' frustration we had with analog systems.

For the price, the quality is impressive and definitely meets my expectations.

Quick test with two of these they worked out good pretty simple and clear sound, the display is easy to read and many settings to choose from. Good battery life and good weight on the talkie well balances feels good in your hand.

Our amusement park covers 400 acres - these radios reach from the front gate to the farthest ride without repeaters. Battery lasts through 16-hour operating days.

These radios perform exactly as promised. They're tough, reliable, and deliver clear communication over long distances—even through thick woods.

Our airport ground crew relies on these in all weather conditions. The noise cancellation is so effective we can communicate clearly right next to running jet engines.

The belt clip is deceptively important - after losing two radios from weak clips, the NR30D's secure hold gives me peace of mind when climbing ladders all day.

Perfect for personal use! The sound quality is excellent, and the range is impressive. Highly recommended!

We’ve been looking into getting into hand radios for sometime and did extensive research on DMR handhelds and this one came up recommended. Now let’s start with what we liked.. These radios are dead simple to use, from switching channels, to navigating menus, and even the build quality is nice and solid

Used during a recent flood response - the water resistance kept them working through heavy rain, and the signal penetrated damaged buildings better than emergency services radios.

This set of walkie talkies are built with good top quality you can feel it and the way it functions. The display works good easy read and control.The sound and mic quality is good and clear good for big events or off roading with friends. Range distance is amazing it does have a detachable antenna. Battery has good life and easy to charge I like that it has the option to charge with usb c and not only the cradle dock. The add on mic/speaker is easy to use and also feels like really good quality feels durable super happy with these radios.

Works great over long distances and the audio is clear and crisp. Very impressed with the performance!

Three words: waterproof, dustproof, idiot-proof. My crew has tried to destroy these through every construction site mistake imaginable, and they just keep working.

These radios came and I assembled them immediately. Easy to understand instructions and assembled.

Our ski patrol team retired all old radios after testing these in blizzard conditions. The cold weather performance is remarkable - batteries last through -20掳F shifts.

They are physically solid.Battery is big, battery life is very good, obviously.Waterproof is a big deal.These radios have the typical features that most DMR radios have .

I was really surprised by the capacity and range of the radios. They are the first to truly deliver on what they offer, in my experience. We use them to talk between an office and a warehouse located in Basement 2 of a Building and the Office on the 2nd Level, so they are basically 4 floors apart and everything works without any problem.

Our trucking company uses these across 12 states. The range between convoy vehicles is impressive, especially in mountainous terrain where our old radios failed.

These are easy to use. Set up was a breeze. Made well. They look great too.

At first, I expected these to be cheap, like something for kids. But when they arrived, I found them to be solid and professional—definitely not toys for kids.

The display remains perfectly visible in direct sunlight - a simple but crucial feature when working outdoors all day.

I love these Retevis radios. They always work great and are reasonably heavy duty. I use them around my property. I can get roughly .5 miles away behind 2 hills and still talk to a handheld at my house. That is great for hills being between us. And that is just handheld to handheld.Definitely recommend.

I’ve used it on hiking trips to stay in touch with different groups within about a mile. The connection was solid and the audio clear. In the city, it worked well up to 2.5 miles. I even accidentally dropped it in a river — after drying it out, it still worked perfectly!

They felt sturdy in hand and stood up well to the bumps and drops that come with fast-paced event environments. For anyone planning a conference, running a large team, or working in an industrial setting, the Retevis NR30D is a reliable choice that won’t disappoint.

The Type-C charging is so convenient - same cable as my phone means I always have a charger handy. Battery lasts through three 8-hour shifts in our 24/7 operation center.

I bought one for my neighbor who lives 20 acres away across the street. We communicate really clearly — it’s perfect for security since we keep an eye on each other’s homes!

The fact that they are IP67 waterproof came in handy when moving equipment outdoors during a quick rain shower, giving peace of mind that the radios wouldn't be damaged by unexpected weather.I've worked with various two-way radios before, but these are the real deal. The radios held their charge throughout the long days, which was essential given the constant use.

They work fine for the purpose, nice clarity and acceptable range, can use them throughout the house with no interference.

Our mining operation destroys electronics quickly. The NR30D has survived 6 months underground where other radios failed in weeks. The dustproofing is truly industrial grade.

I recently used the Retevis NR30D DMR radios for a multi-day conference, and the results were outstanding. Communication across a large venue can often be unreliable, but these radios delivered consistently clear sound without interference. The noise-canceling feature worked better than expected, keeping background chatter to a minimum even in the busiest areas.

Absolutely love these radios. they work great and have been super reliable. Couldn't be happier with the performance!

As a hospital security director, I need reliable comms that won't interfere with medical equipment. The NR30D delivers clean digital signals without any interference.

Very nice radios. Clear audio good volume. Screw lock on mic accessories \ programming cable means it's not going to accidentally fall out!Still new to dmr so I haven't tested every single feature yet but some quick testing tells me these are worth every penny.

Used these coordinating a marathon with 200 volunteers. The noise reduction worked perfectly despite crowd noise, and the range covered our entire 26-mile route without issues.

I have extensive experience with Retevis/Ailunce brand radios. They are one of the better budget radios for personal and commercial use for the money. In fact I have several of their model and they don't disappoint in and always perform just like the commercial brands.

Impressive range for the price—getting about 5 miles even in hilly terrain with the stock antenna. That’s solid performance for a budget-friendly radio!

The vibration alert is a game-changer on loud construction sites. No more missed calls because you couldn't hear the tone over equipment noise. Brilliant feature!

This kit comes with 2 radios that comes with a supplied programming cable, docking/charging station, belt clip, and USB cable. Pretty much all you need to get you and your family to star talking to each other. I definitely will be leaving one these radio in the car as a backup and loaning them out when I do my outdoor camping adventures to friends and families.

Fast shipping. Retevis is a reliable brand.

I own the original NR30 and they are nice for what they are so I took a chance, mainly due to the advertised 10w output. Like the NR30 these are pretty simple radios that you can hand out to family for effective communication.

The encrypted handheld radio feature is why we chose these for our corporate security team. Sensitive conversations stay private, and the build quality is military-grade tough.

Great product, excellent service, and a fair price. My order arrived right on schedule.

Perfect for our event staff - lightweight but tough enough to handle the abuse of festival setups. Battery lasts all weekend.

This is a solidly built, feature packed radio that performs very well. I won't do a blow by blow narrative on the features because they all work as described by the manufacturer. On the bench the radio met or exceeded all published specifications. I usually pass these "review radios" along to churches or ham groups, etc. However, these were so good that I set them aside and gave them to close family members who spend a lot of time camping and trail riding. They are perfect for these activities given the solid audio, good range and functions. A good radio.

Solid build quality at a great price. Supports both analog and digital modes, making it a versatile and budget-friendly choice for any radio enthusiast. Definitely a great value for the money!
