What Is the APX NEXT?
The APX NEXT is Motorola’s most advanced, FedRAMP certified, P25 radio platform to date. It integrates secure P25 voice communication with broadband LTE, advanced GPS/GLONASS/Galileo tracking, and an AI-powered voice assistant called ViQi®. Designed for fire, EMS, and law enforcement, this smart radio helps responders make faster, more informed decisions—without the need to look down, type, or navigate complex menus during critical moments.
Built for real-world use, the APX NEXT features a 3.6-inch impact-resistant touchscreen that functions through gloves, rain, or dust. It supports all major frequency bands (VHF, UHF R1/R2, and 700/800 MHz), with up to 3,000 channels organized across 125 zones, making it ideal for agencies with complex interoperability needs or phased system migration plans.
