Digital detox with the family: disconnect from the screen to truly connect
Weekend coming up? Turn off the Wi-Fi, turn on the adventure.
We live constantly connected. Always. While technology simplifies our lives, it often distances us from what truly matters. How many times, even during our free time, does the smartphone take the spotlight, distracting us from conversations, landscapes, and emotions?
In this context, the idea of a digital detox emerges: not a rejection of technology, but a conscious choice to pause the screen and reconnect with people, nature, and ourselves. A weekend without smartphones can be a refreshing and surprisingly liberating experience, especially when shared with family. No digital distractions, just shared time, outdoor games, and authentic conversations.
And if you want to make this experience even more special, there’s a simple and brilliant ally that helps you stay in touch even without a signal: the walkie talkie.
Why choose walkie talkies for your digital detox

Ideas for a weekend with walkie talkies
Treasure hunt in nature with the XT10 PRO Multicolor
Dust off your imagination, prepare some clues, divide the family into teams... and go! Organizing a treasure hunt in the park, garden, or nearby forest is a great way to get the kids moving, stimulate logic, and have fun together. The XT10 PRO Multicolor walkie talkies are perfect for this kind of activity: colorful, durable, and lightweight, with a range of up to 4 km, designed for small and curious hands. The kids will feel like real explorers, and continuous communication will make the game even more engaging.
Family camping with the G5 PRO
Tent, stars, and a taste for freedom—camping is an adventure that brings people together. To enjoy it with peace of mind, even when you're exploring or split between tents, you need a reliable tool. The G5 PRO is made for this: splash-resistant, easy to use, and ready to go with a 6-level VOX function for hands-free communication. Thanks to the dual PMR446/LPD band, communication stays clear even in crowded areas. With two radios, belt clips, a dual charger and earpieces included, it’s the perfect companion for family camping.
Mini trekking and adventure with the XT30 PRO
If you love walking along trails, taking small hikes, or venturing into less-frequented areas, the walkie talkie becomes an indispensable companion. The XT30 PRO is the right model for more dynamic families: robust, powerful, with a range of up to 6 km. Perfect for staying in touch even in areas where smartphones don't have signal, adding safety and peace of mind to every hike.
Not the best weather? No problem. Even indoors, you can have a disconnected day. Just turn off the TV, tablets, and smartphones, and invent something new with the tools you always have. With walkie talkies, even the rooms become territories to explore. You can use them to play "secret spies," hide clues to find, or build forts and secret bases. Imagination doesn’t need Wi-Fi to work.
Midland is with you, even when you turn off your phone

For everyone, it’s a lasting memory.
