Baofeng UV-7B vs Quansheng TK11

The Baofeng UV-7B is the clear winner for most users.

The single most important differentiator is price and value proposition. The UV-7B costs $27 versus $97 for the Quansheng TK11, yet offers better specifications for the money according to RadioRanked's composite score (70 versus 33). Both radios share identical feature sets—no DMR, APRS, or GPS on either model—and we lack TX power figures for both. The UV-7B is lighter at 260g and supports CHIRP programming, which adds practical value. Owner ratings are similar, with the UV-7B at 4.4/5 from 98 reviews and the TK11 at 4.2/5 from 15 reviews. The larger review sample for the Baofeng provides more confidence in what buyers actually report about real-world performance.

Buy the Baofeng UV-7B if you want a budget-friendly entry point with solid owner feedback and CHIRP compatibility. Buy the Quansheng TK11 only if you have specific requirements we don't see in the specifications—though at nearly four times the price with a lower overall score and smaller review base, the value case is difficult to make.

Go with the Baofeng UV-7B unless you have a particular reason to prefer the TK11.
