Good build quality, waterproof, nice display and nice appearance. Quite large. Not very handy, slightly too thick, a bit heavy. But overall parameters are ok.

Baofeng UV-17E 5W Radio - Black
Baofeng UV-17E 5W handheld radio delivers a maximum output of 5 watts. Featuring a DMTF keypad, dual LCD screens, a built-in flashlight, and FM radio, this device ensures enhanced usability. The radio operates using a 7.4 V lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 1800 mAh, and supports charging via a USB-C port.
Ability to listen to two channels, Kenwood K1 connector
A key feature of the radio is the Dual Watch function, enabling simultaneous monitoring of two channels. This makes it possible to track two different frequencies, with priority automatically switched to the channel receiving an incoming transmission. Equipped with a Kenwood K1 type connector, the radio supports connection to headphones with a microphone (included), an external speaker, or tactical hearing protectors designed for shooting, all compatible with the Baofeng.
99 channels, range up to 10 km, IP54 protection standard
Equipped with 99 channels, the device ensures interference-free communication by preventing disruption from other radio operators. In optimal conditions and open terrain, the operational range can reach up to 10 km. An automatic squelch system and a transmission end tone further improve communication quality. Built to IP54 standard, the radio offers full protection against dust penetration as well as resistance to splashes and light rainfall from any angle.
programmable capability, VOX function
The radio offers programming options directly from the keyboard or through a computer using a USB cable. The integrated software provides numerous features that streamline grouping and identification. Thanks to the VOX function, hands-free transmission is possible, as the radio can be activated by voice without pressing the PTT button.

Ł... Review confirmed by purchase
The Baofeng brand has been well-known and reliable to me for years. According to some reviews, this model is supposedly large, and indeed, it is much bigger than the UV 5R model, but the shape of the radio is quite comfortable to hold. For me, a big plus is the ability to charge the battery via a USB type C port. The flashlight isn't anything special, but it's there and works well enough.

Baofeng is well made, the flashlight is quite bright, lots of menu options, the clip holds well, the display is nice. Nothing to add or take away, it's a cool device and I definitely recommend it. The only small downside is that it's a bit bulky, but other than that, it's good.
