New Box Design For the K5-8

Well, it's a new box for what I'm used to. I've ordered a fair few Qanshengs and the box is always the same. More compact, all brown, and fatter. This box is different. The inner tray plastic is also different. It's clear and seems a bit tougher. I've seen many people, most of them probably resellers of these radios complain about the inner tray arriving damaged from transit / customs etc. They have to travel far and wide all over the world. Maybe this new box will be better. Mine arrived undamaged, so yep, looks promising. And inside is less crammed.

Inside - one of these was in there

I was going to order a K5 (99). Some call it the K6 I think. Or should it be the K7. You know, the newest model out right now. But I have heard they have some issues so decided to go with the K 5 (8). It's my favourite model out of them all. I know they are all mostly the same, but the design on this one is more nicer to me.

Uniden UBC92XLT / Quansheng K5 8 Screens

Which one do you prefer?

Uniden UBC92XLT / Quansheng K5 8 Screens side by side. I do love the deep orange screen on the Uniden. But also really like the screen on the Quansheng. Not just the colour, but also how much it has going on. It's so full of info. Anyway, this was just a quick screen comparison post.

Or Uniden_Orange

I will add. I like the Quansheng better than the Uniden. It's easier to use [the Uniden has some annoying navigation features] and it has buttons that light up. Many of my older scanners do not have this. And I am someone who uses scanners in the dark a lot. So the Quansheng has been great for that. Catch me in a few days sir major.
