Baofeng’s first digital radio is designed for most people to meet the new demand that own a great digital radio while not abandoning analog one. Characterized by attractive appearance, solidness, durability, loud voice, excellent performance, perfection and value, this two-way radio is manually adjustable, all-weather digital two-way radio with dual band, 128 channels, 2000mAh battery, lattice LCD and 21cm antenna, we introduce you the first digital radio of Baofeng and the least expensive digital two-way radio on the market, the DM-5R.
As a radio operating under DMR system, Baofeng
DM-5R is perfectly compatible with both digital and analogue mode. It
can smoothly turn from one into the other. Order today and receive a
DM-5R which can communicate clearly and easily with other DM-5Rs, as
well as communicating with other two-way radios on the UHF and VHF
frequencies. Meanwhile, DM-5R can support DMR repeater function: DMR
Tier I. (Not compatible with HTY & Motorola) Therefore, we highly
recommend you to get more DM-5R by PAIRS for better using experience.
The Baofeng DM-5R features the latest in digital technology to bring you crisp, clear sound when transmitting and receiving. Whether used as analog or digital, you can be sure that your messaging will come across clearly with the DM-5R.
Comparison between Digital & Analogue | ||
Mode | Analogue Radio | Digital Radio |
Technology | Traditional technology | New technology |
Area Coverage | Smaller area coverage | Wider area coverage |
Voice | Natural voice: with interference | Digital voice: much more clearer |
Conversation | One conversation at time | Simultaneous conversations at time |
Applications | Need hardware | Software applications |
Different from UV-5R, in order to create a fantastic compatibility of digital and analog mode under the DMR system, Baofeng designed a brand new chip that run for the DMR system and hold the analog radio’s features at the same time, which makes it support many functions in digital mode like auto power saving, voice encryption, detection, emergency alarm, talkback, individual call, group call, all call, etc.
UHF radios are the best option when you intend to use it inside city limits where you are surrounded by a lot of tall buildings and your signals are expected to pass through multiple walls.
In rural areas where there are very few buildings and even fewer tall ones, you can settle for the VHF radio to have better using experience
This high-gain dual band antenna is flexible, lightweight and with fine shape. The most valuable part is that it enhances the DM-5R’s good ability of signal transmitting and receiving, allowing your handheld radio to get longer range significantly. While, under such a high-power operation of the radio, the antenna is not as hot as the other models of radio, everything is just under a great operating condition.

Baofeng DM-5R Two-way Radio
The maximum effective talking range is up to 8KM (5Miles) from peak to valley.
Average distance is up to 5KM (3 Miles) in open area.
The range is up to 3KM (1.6 Miles) in downtown with skyscrapers.
The above distance is SainSonic official laboratory test data in an ideal environment; the actual talking range should be based on different operating environment.
