BaofengTech have worked with AnyTone to develop 4 new radios and here they are:
Anile-8R - Single Band VHF/UHF Portable Radio:
VERSATILE RADIO FOR AMATEUR AND COMMERCIAL USE
The ANILE-8R is certified for use on commercial and amateur frequencies. The ANILE-8R is FCC Certified for Part 90 usage and is able to Transmit and Receive fully on Narrowband (12.5kHz).
ACCURATE AND RELIABLE
The ANILE-8R is the most accurate and reliable radio in its class, with deviation at a minimum the ANILE-8R will only receive signals that you want. The ANILE-8R has an accurate receiver that will filter out any noise that is not on your chosen frequency or squelch setting. It out-ranks any other receiver in its class!
PRIORITY SCAN
The ANILE-8R has multiple options of priority scanning, never miss an important call again. While scanning through the channel bank you can select a priority channel to keep checking in, even if another channel receives a call.
GROUP AND INDIVIDUAL CALLING SUPPORTED
The ANILE-8R supports the most common Analog Tones. It supports CTCSS, DCS, and DTMF calling methods. Set-up your calling methods to call by individual or by group. Tone calling (private line) is required by most commercial applications and the ANILE-8R supports the latest standards, even allowing custom CTCSS Tones.
The ANILE-8R can even decode (receive) DTMF commands. This allows Remote Stun, Remote Kill and more.
INTERNAL VOX FUNCTION
The ANILE-8R has an internal VOX (Voice Operated Transmit) function for convenient hands-free operation and can be used in conjunction with the included earpiece and mic. The VOX level and VOX delay time are adjustable your needs.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR OPERATION WITH CHANNELS, PROGRAMMABLE BUTTONS, AND MORE!
You can program your ANILE-8R exactly how you want it. There are 16 programmable memory channels. You can add or remove channels from being scanned. The side keys have functions programmable for both 'short' and 'long' key presses allowing up to 4 programmable options on two keys. The dual selector knob allows you to choose from one of 16 channels, with a secondary knob to control the volume. The radio has 2 power levels (5 watt maximum), allowing you to choose how far you can communicate and you can change the power level on the spot. You can easily program from a PC to set-up the radio to operate exactly as needed.
NSTIG-8R - Dual Band VHF/UHF & FM Portable Radios (Dual Watch).
VERSATILE RADIO FOR AMATEUR AND COMMERCIAL USE
The NSTIG-8R is certified for use on commercial and amateur frequencies. The NSTIG-8R is FCC Certified for Part 90 usage and is able to Transmit and Receive fully on Narrowband (12.5kHz).

The NSTIG-8R is the most accurate and reliable radio in its class, with deviation at a minimum the NSTIG-8R will only receive signals that you want. The NSTIG-8R has an accurate receiver that will filter out any noise that is not on your chosen frequency or squelch setting. It out-ranks any other receiver in its class!
DUAL WATCH RECEIVER
The NSTIG-8R has one built-in receiver but can "watch" two channels (semi duplex). Monitor two different frequencies (even on different bands (VHF/UHF)) and the radio will monitor both frequencies giving priority to the first station to receive an incoming call.
FM BROADCAST STATION
Save up to 99 FM stations in preset memories so you can instantly tune to your favorite local broadcast. You can listen to the FM Broadcast radio, while still monitoring your radio frequencies in the background. Any incoming call will be given priority insuring you never miss an important call while listening to the radio.
GROUP AND INDIVIDUAL CALLING SUPPORTED

Tone calling (private line) is required by most commercial applications and the NSTIG-8R supports the latest standards, even allowing custom CTCSS Tones.
The NSTIG-8R can even decode (receive) DTMF commands. This allows for ANI (Caller ID), Remote Stun, Remote Kill and more.
INTERNAL VOX FUNCTION
The NSTIG-8R has an internal VOX (Voice Operated Transmit) function for convenient hands-free operation and can be used in conjunction with the included earpiece and mic. The VOX level and VOX delay time are adjustable your needs.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR OPERATION WITH CHANNELS, PROGRAMMABLE BUTTONS, AND MORE!
You can program your NSTIG-8R exactly how you want it. There are 200 programmable memory channels. You can add or remove channels from scanning list right on the keypad. The side keys are programmable to multiple options including adding a secondary (dual) push-to-talk option. You can give channels alphanumeric names, without using a computer. The radio has 2 power levels (5 watt maximum), allowing you to choose how far you can communicate. You can set VFO scanning limits, and resume scanning after a power cycle. The NSTIG-8R has 2 VFO banks, and allows you to be in both VFO and channel modes at the same time. You can easily program from a PC to set-up the radio to operate exactly as needed.
In commercial applications you can set up radios in work modes and customize and restrict from manual programming modes (and menus). You can even lockout the keypad completely.

All in all very disappointing as there is no development from Baofeng. There are also radios on the market that have all of these features covered.
Thanks for reading!
