In writing a review of a product I purchased, I take into consideration its cost, how it performs for the cost and what comes with it for the cost. Generally, I find lower cost radios deficient in their quality and function; However, the TIDRADIO TD-H8 is not an expensive radio but still achieves a 5-star rating as an excellent choice for anyone looking for an affordable, powerful, feature-rich, and easy-to-use dual band radio.
It features a true 10-watt output power, which provides long-range communication, a large color dual display, weather band, FM radio and a built-in Bluetooth module for wireless programming.
In using the TD-H8, I've been really impressed with it. The range is excellent, the audio quality is clear, and the battery life is long. I also love the fact that I can program the radio wirelessly on the go. It's so much easier than using a programming cable.
Overall, I highly recommend the TIDRADIO TD-H8. It is excellent value with all that you get with it and it's perfect for ham radio operators and outdoor enthusiasts who need an affordable, powerful, reliable two-way radio.
Here are some of the pros and cons:
Pros:
• True 10-watt output power

• Built-in Bluetooth module for wireless programming
• Long battery life
