After experienced with a few OpenGD radio. I would say RD-5R is by far my favorite. It's tiny, and I love the e-ink display. The battery life is by far better than all others color display radio.

You should buy it, upgrade the RAM and resell it!

This one on QRZ is not in a good condition. The charger feels weird to me. The radio itself show some sign of rough uses, the "BAND" button for example. If I'm not already have two of them I might get this one and replace the front case and keypad from my old UV-5R.
