    Pros: volume button, VOX, good audio, compact & rugged, vibra, NOAA alert, good range
    Cons: not sold with rechargeable battery and base, not as water resistant as T5950

    Summary: This is a very rugged feature packed radio that has a volume button instead of knob which is a big big plus. The volume button (which can be locked is better) because you can carry it in your purse or backpack and not worry about the volume button being ... read more

  • These are the best radios they made

    Pros: Easy to use. VOLUME BUTTON perfect...cannot be moved accidentally.
    Cons: Watch the back battery cover...it falls off if you do not secure it properly!

    Summary: These radios are the best and most rugged they ever made. I have 3 of them and have used them in Disney, New York City and more. They don't make them like this anymore. The new Motorola radios are now made in China and they are nothing but JUNK.

  • Battery Cover Nightmare

    Pros: Work well when the battery is in.
    Cons: Stupid battery cover falls off then the battery wont stay in. Company quickly abandons product.

    Summary: The radio works ok but the battery cover does not stay on well. Have lost 3/5 battery covers. Called Motorola and they no longer make or support this model. Checking on the internet you will find that this battery cover problem is wide spread. I would

  • Great Features, Terrible Range

    Pros: Lots of nifty features.
    Cons: Absolutely terrible performance.

    Summary: If you thinking of upgrading from FRS to GMRS in order to get more range out of your communications, forget the Motorola T6250. At anything beyond a 100 yards or so, I got nothing but static. I bought four of them and they all performed just as poorly-

  • A Major Disappointment

    Pros: Small, Nice looking.
    Cons: Very bad reception and transmission, static and poor sound.

    Summary: I bought the T6250 two way radios about 6 months ago to replace my old Motorolas Talkabouts 250. The T6250 failed to give me the range I thought I would get, and using them while shopping only achieved static in the stores. I did a side by side test and t
