After getting our hands on the Motorola CLP446, we were pleasantly surprised with how compact it is!

Firstly, It couldn’t be easier to attach.  It comes with a flexible belt clip that the radio slides into seamlessly and attaches to your belt effortlessly. You could wear it all day and forget you had it on!

Designed with the retail and hospitality industry in mind, it’s easy on the eye and it certainly looks the part. It’s a sophisticated, discreet radio upholding a professional image keeping with a company’s brand.

First, we tested the battery’s durability though out the day. We tested roughly how they would be used in a hotel or a restaurant environment.. We tested roughly how they would be used in a hotel or a restaurant environment.The test found them to last around 10 hours without charge and still provide high levels of audio. After this, sound becomes increasingly poor before the power on the radio runs out altogether. The battery life should still be suitable as most shift patterns tend to be for around 8-9 hours, and the batteries are rechargeable regardless, so it might be worth keeping a few spare radios just in case!

Motorola conducted research within the retail & hospitality sectors accordingly and asked for people from within the industry to feedback. Basically asking what key factors they would be looking for within a radio.

.

From the responses, 3 key specifications were outlined:

• Comfortability
• Durability & Performance
• Elegance

We think the specification has been executed impressively and the radio is an ideal addition for shops and restaurants within the retail and hospitality industry.

Our Verdict:

2Way Radio Shop gives the CLP446 4/5 Stars!
