AnyTone AT-778UV vs Retevis RT95

The AnyTone AT-778UV is the better choice for most buyers.

The single most important differentiator is transmit power. The AT-778UV delivers a specified 25W, while the RT95's transmit power is unknown to us. This gap in data for the Retevis makes a direct comparison incomplete, but the AnyTone's published 25W output is a concrete advantage for range-dependent applications.

Both radios are nearly identical in weight, lack advanced features like DMR and GPS, support CHIRP programming, and have no listed IP rating. The RT95 shows a slightly higher owner rating at 4.6 out of 5 across 137 reviews versus the AT-778UV's 4.4 out of 5 from 49 reviews, suggesting owners report satisfaction with the Retevis. However, this modest rating difference is not large enough to overcome the AT-778UV's clear power advantage and lower $124 price point.

The AnyTone AT-778UV suits buyers who prioritize known specifications, better value, and confirmed transmit power for range. The Retevis RT95 is worth considering only if you can confirm the RT95's power rating meets your needs and you value the larger sample of owner feedback.
