The biggest regret is that it didn't get approved with a 50M frequency. The 10W power output can be fully compensated for by the antenna, and shortwave reception is completely unnecessary even with this handheld radio. Furthermore, there are many features that haven't been modified (such as the anti-human menu and flashlight), and the overall design of the device is flawed, with a one-sided functionality and aesthetics that don't even compare to the K5 or K6 (to put it bluntly, the layout of the UV5R is much better). The interface is too complex, with an additional shortwave magnetic antenna. Will this eventually lead to a "spider web" of connections?
In summary, the expected performance of the 50M device fell short, it lacked any significant advantages over high-power devices, ignored existing criticisms, had a disorganized design and layout, featured numerous ports, which ultimately led to a drastic drop in its perceived value from an initial expectation of 0 within six months.

What about losing 50M? That's a huge blow! I was really hoping for a direct win.
"Using 10W? An antenna can teach you how to be a person in minutes! Putting in a shortwave receiver? That's just nonsense – who seriously uses that for serious shortwave operation?"
Has the old problem (the offensive menu, broken flashlight) been fixed? I hope so!
New design? It's a disaster – heavy head, light feet, and utterly unappealing. It gets completely outclassed by the K5/K6, even the UV5R is superior!
Interface? Various (e.g., magnetic field antenna port? Preparing to evolve into an octopus?) What's the point of adding more complexity?
Summary: The "要" (yào) is missing.（50M）The "blowing" method didn't work (10W/shortwave), the old one got damaged (menu/flashlight), the new one was just for show (appearance), and they added extra features (interface) – I waited for half a year, and it completely failed!
