Olivia was very pleasant to communicate with and understood the problem quickly. She came back with a solution and was very quick to respond. Shipping is fast. I will definitely be purchasing more because of Olivia's help. Many thanks!

The service online was very good. Baofeng surprised me, the professional level and helpful attitude through out the process. They kept checking back with me over a period of a week to make sure I was satisfied. Thank you Baofeng.

Great Devices and great Support

I recently purchased a total of 4 Baofeng devices, and overall, I'm very satisfied with my experience. 2 of the radios have worked flawlessly right out of the box. They are reliable, durable, and offer excellent performance for the price and my usage.

However, I did encounter issues with two of the devices. Fortunately, Baofeng's customer support was extremely responsive. They quickly addressed my concerns and directly connected me with the dealer from whom I purchased the radios. Thanks to their efficient support, all my problems were resolved swiftly.

Despite the initial hiccups with two units, the quick and effective support I received really stood out. I highly recommend Baofeng, not only for their solid products but also for their outstanding customer service.

I have aquired a Baofeng UV 21R Pro V2…

I have aquired a Baofeng UV 21R Pro V2 via Shein. I have been looking for software to program the radio via my pc so I could enter channel names. Although there are many programs out there, I could find none that would accept the air band frequencies of 108 to 133 Mhz.

I eventually contacted the Baofeng Support team to see if they could help me. With the time difference between our country I received a reply from Olivia the very next day.

Olivia informed me that my radio is a modified radio from an outside company and that they do not really support that model. She however took the time to search the internet for the software I needed. The link she sent me worked perfectly and solved my problem.

Olivia is a great asset to your company.

Thank you for the support.

Nothing less than impressed. Thank you Olivia!

I hope this message finds you all well. I am nothing less than impressed with the customer service I have received from Olivia! I placed my order and set up my account without realizing that I had been sent a 10% off coupon and a free gift with purchase over 120 dollars. I sent an email with my order number regarding the free gift and the 10% off coupon I would have used on my first purchase. Although I wasn't able to receive the 10% off, Olivia was quick to send me the free gift for my qualifying purchase. I am very grateful for the free gift! Thank you Olivia for your expertise and quick response to my email. It's my pleasure to do business with a company that clearly holds my experience in the highest regard. I will gladly recommend Baofeng to all my friends and family! Cheers!

Great customer service!

Baofeng customer service was great to work with. I had a technical problem and it was resolved politely and swiftly.
I was very satisfied with the company, and I look forward to using my new Baofeng radios.

Great Customer Service Experience

I recently purchased a 2-Pack of UV-9G GMRS radios through Amazon. The radios are great, but would not transmit on Ch. 15. I contacted Baofeng Customer Service for assistance and was supported exceptionally well by Olivia. Over the course of several emails, she did her best to lead me through a firmware fix, but when this didn't work, she contacted the company that provided the radios to Amazon for me and this company immediately contacted me to replace my radios. Baofeng service was great, and, it's hard to beat their radios for the price! I am very happy with my UV-5R (been using for several years), and aside from the Ch. 15 issue, I have been very happy with my UV-9G radios! Thank you Olivia and Baofeng!
