    RUNBO V RHINO?

    Anyone got a Runbo 'phone/radio from China?

    Are they compatible and legal here? How do they compare with a Rhino and what are they like as a 'phone?

    And, can you load maps into a gps function?

    Thanks

    They're on aliexpress. Couple of YouTube reviews but not much info.
    I can't imagine there being much issue if you select the correct frequency model. Run an app like oruxmaps for your gps.

    They seem to cover the right frequency range, not sure if it can easily be programmed to our frequencies as likely to be set up for USA.

    Yup, dual sim cards so you can get better cell reception if one network is stronger than the other etc.
