Advanced Off-Grid Communication with Bluetooth & Location Sharing
Stay connected beyond the limits of cellular service with the Motorola TALKABOUT T803 Two-Way Radio. Designed for camping, hiking, hunting, skiing, road trips, outdoor events and off-grid adventures, the T803 combines traditional FRS two-way radio communication with Bluetooth connectivity and Motorola's TALKABOUT smartphone app.
Connect your smartphone to the T803 via Bluetooth to unlock off-grid messaging, location sharing, offline maps, push-to-talk from your phone and app-controlled radio settings. The T803 also features an advertised voice range of up to 35 miles, IP54 weather resistance, NOAA weather alerts, USB-C charging, emergency features and a convenient dual-unit charging dock included in the package.
Off-Grid Messaging & Location Sharing
The Motorola T803 goes beyond the capabilities of a conventional walkie talkie. When connected to a compatible smartphone through Bluetooth, the Motorola TALKABOUT app uses the radio to transmit information over radio frequencies, allowing compatible T800-series users to communicate even when cellular service isn't available.
TALKABOUT app features include:
- Off-grid text messaging
- Group and broadcast messaging
- Location sharing
- Offline maps
- Track recording and statistics
- Push-to-talk from your smartphone
- Radio settings controlled through the app
- Silent communication
This makes the T803 an excellent choice for groups exploring remote areas where cellular coverage may be weak or unavailable.
What3words Precise Location Tracking
The TALKABOUT app incorporates what3words location technology. What3words divides the world into approximately 10-foot squares, assigning each square a unique three-word address. This allows users to communicate a precise campsite, trail location, meeting point or other position without relying solely on a traditional street address. Motorola specifically promotes this capability for communicating precise locations while exploring outdoors and away from cellular service.
Up to 35-Mile Voice Range*
Motorola rates the TALKABOUT T803 for a maximum voice communication range of up to 35 miles under optimum conditions and a maximum data range of up to 20 miles.
- Up to 35 miles — Mountain to valley
- Up to 6 miles — Open water
- Up to 2 miles — Neighborhood
Actual range is often significantly shorter and depends on terrain, buildings, vegetation, weather, electromagnetic interference and other physical obstructions.
License-Free FRS Communication
The Motorola TALKABOUT T803 operates on FRS frequencies in the 462–467 MHz UHF band, providing convenient license-free operation in the United States. With 22 FRS channels and 121 privacy codes per channel, users have numerous communication settings available without cellular service, subscriptions or monthly service charges.
Bluetooth 5.2 Connectivity
The T803 features Bluetooth connectivity for pairing with the TALKABOUT app and compatible Bluetooth audio accessories. Once configured through the app, the radio can automatically connect with compatible Bluetooth 5.2 audio accessories, giving users additional options for convenient hands-free communication.
IP54 Weather-Resistant Design
Built for outdoor use, the Motorola TALKABOUT T803 carries an IP54 weatherproof rating. The radio is designed to withstand the effects of rain, snow and splashing water, making it an excellent companion for hiking, hunting, skiing, camping, festivals and other outdoor activities.
NOAA Weather Channels & Alerts
Stay informed about changing conditions with 11 weather channels, including 7 NOAA channels with alert features. Whether you're camping, hiking, hunting or preparing for severe weather, NOAA weather functionality gives you another way to stay informed when you're away from home.
Emergency Alert & Built-In Flashlight
The Motorola T803 includes an emergency alert button designed to provide quick access to assistance features. Pressing and holding the emergency button for approximately three seconds activates an audible alarm and hands-free iVOX transmission, allowing you to send a request for assistance to your group. A built-in flashlight provides an additional light source during nighttime activities, camping or emergency situations.
Rechargeable Battery & Dual-Power Capability
The Motorola T803 includes high-capacity 1300 mAh rechargeable NiMH battery packs, rated for up to approximately 16 hours of battery life. The radios can alternatively operate on 3 standard AA alkaline batteries, with Motorola rating alkaline operation at up to approximately 26 hours. USB-C charging provides convenient modern charging capability.
Dual-Unit Charging Dock Included
One of the biggest differences between the T802 and T803 packages is charging convenience. The T803 includes a dual-unit drop-in charging dock, allowing both radios to be conveniently placed into the charger together instead of relying solely on direct cable charging. This is one of the clearest reasons to choose the T803 over the T802.
