Which Walkie Talkie can be the best?
 
I saw that there are some kinds of walkie talkies on ebay, but I don't know which brand can be the best?
And I saw that Baofeng Radio seems good, like 888s, UV-5R and so on.
I also watch some of store like trytrybuy, littlelittle bird and sp on.
Is there any suggestion for this?
Many thanks.

It seems the person you're spamming on behalf of hasn't explained the
difference between ham radio and walkie talkie to you.

Just be sure they are legal to use in the UK.
Some operate on frequencies used by other services and although you are
unlikely to be arrested, you might find local interference precludes they
use.
They used to sell over the counter ones at many shops, branded with names
you know at reasonable costs.

I was recommended Baofeng, and I'm very happy with the small unit I have.

Depends on what you want to do with them.

Nowadays it can make much more sense to have
a decent plan for your mobile phone and it that way.

Mine costs $10 per month for unlimited calls and texts to any
landline or mobile in the country and 1GB of data as well.

Much more useful than walkie talkies now even if you
have to buy a couple of cheap used mobile phones.

How about the Ann Gelgri N'der brand?
I saw some down at the Dubbel Uwe Defor Tea Shop the other day.
