T-Comm/Maxto product not bad,

provided your riding buddies also using the same brand/model.

Those brand can find in shoppe/lapsada.

Thank you. What’s the relevance of having others using the same brand/model? Do they not link if not the same?

One time save up for a Cardo.

I'm using a Cardo Freecom 4+, 3 years still going strong. Commute to work and back daily, still lasts 2-4 weeks on a charge 30-45 minutes of use with music. Volume pretty loud too as I'm wearing musicians earplugs.

My experience with a cheap freedcon unit is that the volume is pretty soft, even without earplugs once you hit highway speed you struggle hearing what's coming out of the speakers. Call quality on the Cardo is extremely good too, people on the other end is completely oblivious that you're riding a bike.

If you don't mind used, I might want to sell my Freecom 4+ though, thinking of upgrading to the latest packtalk as my riding buddy just upgraded to that too.

Very informative. Thank you. I struggle to find a sena distributor in Malaysia though. Kinda stuck on model 50S.

For The Bluetooth system, yes they universal .. either 4.2 or 5.1 version. this the connectivity to your phone/gps unit or other bluetooth enable devices.

But for intercom, which is full duplex communication between one helmet to another, many are using closed system which only can interact and paired with the same model/brand.

This would not be a problem if you often ride solo or with your pillion only. But if ride in the group you might need to consider to have uniformed intercom devices.

They don’t have a feature called universal pairing? Maybe we don’t get the mesh intercom feature only? Gonna be hard to have a complete gang on the same model intercom

Don't bother with sena, get Cardo instead. Waterproof and sound quality is much better than sena especially the higher end model.
AFAIK Malaysia didn't bring in the twin pack, but if you do find someone selling, do drop me a pm we share hehe

Are you sure Cardo really on top of sena in terms of audio?

I used Sena 20S Evo, 10C, and currently Cardo Packtalk Bold/Black.

In terms of Mesh connectivity, Cardo is better, but I guess need to compare it with Sena 30 and 50 which have never been used before. The Apps are also way better than Sena which looks like still running  Java Applet.

In terms of audio quality, Sena is louder, and you can use it with a Jet or Half face helmet without worry, Cardo tends to be softer but has better (slight) bass and you need to really align it with your earlobe to get the best of it.

Thank you brother. Guess I’m opened to cardo neo and sena 50s now. Wondering where could I try them out at least.

There was a Cardo discount December 2022

Now back to normal price. Neo is not in Malaysia yet. So I’ll wait for Neo first.

Buy once cry once.

Nightstalker1993 since you have a com now you can wait with me? Haha.

How did you manage to track the inbound discounts man?

Wah like that need to find triple pack already laugh.gif

Yeah km actually considering waiting for neo also. Save like rm200-300 over the edge hopefully.
Go try other brands. Shoei, shark, or whatever else. Diff helmet got diff cutting. Just go try.

The edge has a magnetic clip on that neo will not have. That’s the only significant different besides edge can be charged whilst in use. Not sure if that’s necessary.

Think the edge might have discount again once neo launches? I’m opened to both but magnetic sounds more convenient. Not like I’ve used either so just saying
