Look, we get it. You already have phones, pulling over to talk ain’t hard and good stuff ain't cheap. You cannot justify spending another 500 bucks on a comm system. We're telling you that you don't have to. We give you the low down on the best mid-price comms out there. [Details below]

We purchased a comm system in Spring 2019. Wanted voice commands because messing with buttons on the helmet while riding is not something I want to do; also easier for my spouse to deal with. The UClear was my initial choice, but after learning that the motion sensor was only on the top end device, and questioning the unique mic system, we went with the Freecom 4+ and have been very happy. Even riding with earplugs and modular helmets, it is plenty loud, and the sound quality is great. Thanks for another fun and informative review!

This is quite interesting. My driving school in Germany uses Walkie-talkies for communicating with students for Motorcycle lessons. The instructor usually follows behind in car and gives instructions. I always thought it was due to the modular nature and the fact that students can use their own headphone for hygiene. But range seems like a good added benefit

Yup. My motorcycle club has been using them for years. Works way better than any Bluetooth based device when it comes to communication range. And if you can even program some of the baofeng uhf radios to be able to communicate with these Motorola units. Although you need to check with your country's laws if they're legal to use in your area. The advantage is range and has no limits to how many riders can join in.

The automatic volume adjustment based on wind noise is spot on. The voice commands actually work pretty well. I am pleasantly surprised since my previous experience with the Packtalk Slim wasn't good at all (though I did not spring for the JBL speakers on those)

Awesome video as always. Got a vnet in june, the volume is basically impossible to adjust while riding, and the power-off button is right next to the volume up button and DOESN'T require a long-time press. 50% chance of shutting it off. I found it to be quite loud without earplugs, though with earplugs it might be a little too quiet depending on the type of music or your partner's voice. Also, the intercom only works for two people at a time, you have to switch between "channels"... So basically, it's a 2-person intercom. However, for 115 CAD for a dual pack, it's still worth it imo. Plus you can share it your second unit with whoever it is your riding. If range becomes an issue (never was for me), you can always make a phone call. Sound is great even without a full-face or windshield (riding buddy rides a sportster and wears a Bell Rogue.

Acoustician here, the SLM (sound level meter) readings at 04:37 actually seem to show different results. The Uclear at the bottom left is set to "Max", as opposed to what I assume is the average for the others. I would also question if that SLM measures average over time or just an instantaneous response. I wouldn't put too much faith in an SLM like that, useful for indicative ballpark numbers, but I guarantee you they are not accurate to 0.1dB

Will never buy a Sena again. 20 replaced under warranty then failed. Now using a 10 and it's always losing sound in 1 speaker. Cardozo next for me. Great vid !

Same here. Had Sena 20s, was fine on its own, but unusable with 3 riders. Sena customer support was horrible and left me with same feeling that I would never buy a Sena product again. Have since gone with Cardo Packtalk units and they have been great. The main issue with the pairing and crackling sound of the Sena was resolved and no issues with the Cardo.

Love my freecom, I use sennheiser cx300 earbuds with it. They work well for noise isolation meaning no need for earplugs and they produce really good quality sound with the need to have them ridiculously loud meaning you can still hear the outside world perfectly well. They're super comfy and small as well so the don't catch on your helmet when putting it on. Top video as alway guys 👍

If you want good audio for music, you really need some in-ear goodies. You'll never EVER get good audio quality from in-helmet speakers so long as they're competing with wind noise. I own a pair of Shure SE215's and the sound quality for the road is unparalleled. Well, actually, the only earphones better than Shure SE215's for motorcycle use are the higher-end Shure SE series. They have memory foam tips so they block out just as much sound as dedicated ear plugs, and if you buy the optional in-line microphone, then practicality is on-par with ANY of the aforementioned products. The 215's are a little lacking in low-end ooomph, but if you fork out a bit more and get one of the better SE series then you'll be laughing all the way to timbucktoo and back. Ride safe.
