Authentic BTECH radio, very good quality for the price.
This is my first radio, but I’ve seen others and also bought a UV-5R, which shares the same case. It works great, and the contacts I’ve made so far, say that I come in loud and clear. I live almost 3 miles from the closest repeater, and I can RX and TX to it just fine from inside my basement apartment. However, I did upgrade the antenna to the Nagoya NA-771 For home use as well as a ExpertPower XP-669C for portable use. The included V85 high gain antenna works really well too, but I feel the XP gets better results. Programming is easy with the BTECH programming cable (sold separately) and the Chirp software. BaoFeng makes their own software, but I haven’t used it. It’s not the most intuitive radio, but once you get used to the menu options and where everything is, it’s really easy to use. Definitely recommended as a beginner radio for HAMs and GMRS/FRS users as well if you feel like bending the rules a bit. Get your license and just don’t brag about your TX power.

pretty good
The padding on the inside of the case on one side is nice to have. The little flap that folds over is padded but it doesn't really cover the entire hard drive leaving about 1/2 inch uncovered on one side so I minused a star. I've had a hard drive drop on the floor and never work again so I got this. It holds my passport and cable nicely. I may add a piece of foam for more protection.

It's solid, looks good and whatever...
...Is inside (back up drive) would probably survive a fall from several stories up. The picture says it all and it's really cheap, but doesn't look it :)

Excellent carry case for my WD My Passport. Fits perfectly and keeps my external hard disk safe and protected.
