Sena 10U Bluetooth Headset Review
www.revzilla.co...
NOTE: Only the Schuberth model comes without the handlebar remote.
The Sena 10U Bluetooth Communicator utilizes Bluetooth 4.0 technology to offer some of the most premium connectivity in the world of motorcycle helmet communication devices. With the new lineup of unibody designs, the 10U motorcycle helmet communicator comes specifically designed to integrate with your helmet. To get the right option for you, be sure to order the Sena 10U unit that has been built for your helmet, as other models will not fit correctly. With a host of functionality features such as wireless remote control, voice prompts, four-way intercom with up to 1 mile of operable distance, and built-in FM tuner (among other things), the Sena 10-U Bluetooth helmet communicator has a ton to offer riders in search of increased connectivity.

[@kaiomendonca1]

Hey Anthony next time can you speak the intro faster please? I got kinda sleepy watching it, thank you!

[@BMOCroc]

your reviews are the best. anthony is a natural in front of the camera and knows how to show off everything. almost never a time im asking "well what about this aspect?"

[@ricanrolla85]

I just bought and installed the 10U on my Shoei Neotec. Best $270 I've spent in a while. Easy installation. Took me about 20 mins. And it's plenty loud. Perfect Bluetooth system for the Neotec

[@hognut58]

PhantomFilms just want to ask you how the speakers sound with your music, compared to the 20s speakers if you've used both. Thanks

[@ricanrolla85]

It's a little flatter and not as loud but not much of difference honestly.

[@Ray-he4oe]

BUYER BEWARE: The 10u battery is not replaceable. Unless the battery dies within the warranty period, and the complete unit is replaced by Sena, you will throw the 10u away!! Anthony, please be a little more honest about the Sena issue of no possible battery replacement by the purchaser.

[@meramosjr]

Justice Man Are the batteries replaceable on all other bluetooth units?

[@BobJones20001]

Agree. They can be replaced with care but Sena told me no replacement was possible. My unit lasted 18 month. A lot of money for 18 months.

[@happytrails1963]

Thanks for the helpful review. Can't wait to get this installed in the Neotec Imminent. You guys are the best!

[@cherrieblossoms]

Anthony does amazing reviews! Thanks for an informative look at the 10U

[@rapaent]

Thanks for the great video!! Here's a huge wish..... I wish someone would make a headset similar Sena 10U to fit universal on open face helmets. Thanks again!👍😊

[@marlon6664]

lets wait for the 20u model

[@leserafiqe5570]

I remember so much from these videos

[@aprilialover125]

I got a workout listening to this guy. Nice review though

[@yannickkammer-mayer178]

Man, this sucks. :-P Was shopping for a communicator for my brand spanking new RF1200, and was resigned to having something stick out the side of the helmet. But now that I've seen this, no way. I'll wait a few more months, see what people think of it after a while, and hope Sena makes one for the RF1200 soon. I mean, they make one for the Arai full-face, so it shouldn't be too hard making one for the RF... maybe they'll even figure out how to fit the better speakers! **fingers crossed**

[@NERSteveB]

+Yannick Kammer-Mayer Just got an email from Sena support saying the Arai FF will work with the RF-1200. Yes, 10U will fit to a Shoei RF-1200 helmets. Since Shoei RF-1200 is a closed type of helmet, you can have the 10U for Arai Full-Face Helmets device.

[@yannickkammer-mayer178]

+Steve Batchelder Thanks for the info!

[@Lucky4zo]

Yannick Kammer-Mayer did you try it in the RF1200?

[@davidsmart40]

Just to let you know. The 10u for the Arai is all but useless now and should not be advertised as fitting most full faced Arai Helmets. In order for it to fit, the helmets neck roll must me removable. There are hardly any Arai helmets nowadays (not a single one at my local stockist) with a removable neck roll. They are all glued in place now. I learned the hard way.

[@RevZilla]

I cannot speak for the international market, but here in the US, the Corsair-X, Corsair-V, Quantum-X, Signet-X, RX-Q, Signet-Q, Defiant, Vector 2, and XD-4 all have removable neck rolls. What specific helmets did you look at? -DrewZilla

[@davidsmart40]

RevZilla Hi, I've bought it intending to use if on a Chaser Raw V and I also have the Axces 2 and it fits neither. There wasn't a single Arai at local dealer with removable neck roll. Looks now then that the product is aimed at the US market.

[@Gerberbaby922]

Any word on if Sena plans on making kits for more helmets over time? The ever popular RF1200 seems like a natural addition.

[@RevZilla]

+Gerberbaby922 If the 10U sells well for the current compatible helmets, it's possible Sena would make a version for the RF-1200. -DrewZilla

[@Gerberbaby922]

+RevZilla Thanks for the reply. That makes a lot of sense. So you guys with those few helmets get buying, for the good of your fellow riders.

[@dbehr27]

I'm so confused, people keep saying something about the speakers. I've owned an SMH-5FM, a Sena 20s and the 10R and the 10U speakers have more bass and are at least as loud as any of those. Seriously, yesterday a song came on and I actually heard bass and nearly crapped myself. No, all other things are equal - no change in EQ settings, phone or anything.

[@LostStylus]

It's a very strange design decision about the buttons - seems like in gt air version the buttons will be stuck in peripheral vision. And to press the buttons you will have to open the visor :(

[@ClutchFirst]

Solid review. Very informative as usual.

[@Salaheddine020]

Hi DrewZilla, I have an question about the speakers. Anthony mentions on 5:05 that the speakers are from the SMH10R for Shoei and Arai. But he did not say that this the fact for the Schubert C3. Can you confirm that Sena 10U for the Schubert C3 has the 20S speakers?

[@RevZilla]

+Salaheddine020 Yes, the Sena 10U for Schuberth C3/Pro has the larger speakers from the 20S, since the Schuberths have larger speaker pockets compared to Shoei. -DrewZilla

[@GeorgiaGrowGuy]

Does Revzilla sell the black rubber helmet donut you use to display/service the helmets?

[@RevZilla]

Here is one we sell. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/icon-helmet-service-pad

[@ianpaterson2734]

I was not informed the battery was not replaceable. I would not have bought it if I had been told that.

[@umpajote]

Hi, Do you know if the Schuberth version can be used with the S2? or only C3?

[@RevZilla]

+Jordi B.C. Due to the difference in shape of the cheek pads and their attachment snaps, the Sena 10U for Schuberth only fits the C3/Pro. -DrewZilla

[@dandiego7298]

Very disappointed that the 10U does NOT work with the XS Shoei Neotec.

[@mattue84]

Great.... If only you have one of those three manufactured lids

[@RevZilla]

+mattue84 If you don't, you may want to consider the low-profile Sena SMH10R or 10R with handlebar remote. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-smh10r-bluetooth-headset *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@tgmotoman1]

looks like a pain to use while riding, have to left visor to use buttons. Not a fan of the grip mount controller. I like the size but still needs work imo.

[@tbtsyncro]

Its very very difficult to use the play/pause function on the remote while riding (i've owned a 10U since July)

[@Jeff-gw1dv]

I fitted this Sena 10U to my brand new Schuberth C3 pro helmet size 58/59 and the damned thing is to tight at rear of helmet when fitted on my head making wearing helmet a no no as it's so uncomfortable .

[@abayram81]

In the video, it has been mentioned that the speaker quality of 20S is better than 10U. I checked and saw that I can buy 20S speakers separately. Since I want better sound quality, is it possible to connect 20S speakers to 10U and use with Arai Defiant Jolly Roger Helmet? I will buy according to your response...

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U speakers are fixed to the rest of the system, so you cannot replace them with 20S speakers. I recommend you consider the Sena 10R instead, which is low-profile and uses the 20S speakers. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@Jeson2007]

wer i can find the comonication system inside the (shubert c4pro ) name of model

[@DonlineUK]

Excellent review, thanks!

[@bobbahsteve]

Do they make a 10u for the shoei X fourteen? And if so are they using the better speakers? I see that the video was made quite some time ago so just wondering if anything had been updated thanks! Great videos by the way!

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U is not available for the X-14. It is still only available for the Neotec and GT-Air. The Sena 10R would be the best recommendation, as it's quite low profile and uses the better speakers from the 20S. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@mrtonymartinez]

I love the integration idea. I have a Shoei Hornet X2, do you know of any plans to make kit for that helmet?

[@RevZilla]

+The Suburban Patriot As far as I know, there aren't any plans to make a version for the Hornet X2. Instead, I'd recommend the SMH10R. Or, if you also want the handlebar remote, look at the Sena 10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-smh10r-bluetooth-headset *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@Cooperscoolers]

I just bought a used C3Pro with this unit installed. I can not get the unit to pair with a phone. Going through the options, the phone pairing and media pairing options never come up. Has anyone had any issues like this before? Is there good tech support somewhere that could help?

[@TsiratiugZ]

With the Schuberth version I've read some complaints about pressure on the back of the neck where the battery pack sits. Any thoughts on this. Also, as the bar appears to sit right where the exhaust vent is, how does this impact ventilation? Thanks.

[@MasterTracer9Double0]

How much does the speaker build up towards the ear? I have bad experience from intercoms building up so much it puts a strain on my ear and ultimately a headache when riding longer distance. I'm thinking about this system on an Schuberth E1 but if there's any risk of constant headache I might go for the Schuberth C4 model instead. Appreciate your inputs!

[@RevZilla]

The E1 has recessed speaker pockets, so the 10U speakers don't protrude much into the space around your ears. As far as I can tell, the C4 uses very similar-thickness speakers as well. -DrewZilla

[@decs3487]

could you do a review on the best sounding motorcycle helmet that has speakers in it im going to start riding long distance and a good quality sounding speaker in a helmet would be just what i need only one time have to talked about the quality in a speaker

[@RevZilla]

There aren't many helmets that already have speakers in them. If you want the best-sounding communicator, I recommend the UCLEAR AMP Pro. You would install it in whatever helmet you want. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/uclear-amp-pro-bluetooth-communicator-single-pack

[@imranahmed786]

When we say that there are 3 bluetooth devices that can be synchronised, does this mean I can have 2 mobile phones connected to the device? I use one mobile as a Sat nav whilst the other for phone calls. Will it support 2 mobile.phone connections simultaneous? Thanks for the review

[@RevZilla]

Yes, if you needed to connect multiple cell phones you would be able to. You may need to toggle between which phone has priority during your ride, but it would be connected. Sena has a few how to videos and FAQs on the subject on their website that might really help you dial in your decision! If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our Gear Geeks at 877.792.9455 or [e-mail]. Ride safe, -Pat

[@THESNIP3RMAST3R]

Anthony it's no shave November man what are you doing?

[@ian9963]

I have the Schubert C3 pro and looking for a new Bluetooth communication system.At the moment I have the SRC but I hate it, so the sena 10u looks perfect but one thing I did not like with the SRC was the mic because it was always getting in the way,do you think this would be the same with Sena? Now I found the uclear amp pro, I know this is not stealth but I also like good sound to play my rock music which one of the 2 has loader and best quality sound? Another good thing is no mic boom and the way you update from the phone as far as I can see Sena does not have this. If I bought the Sena 10u and if the uclear Pulse Wired Drop-In Helmet Speakers are better quality are they compatible?I realise I may have to cut the wires and splice them, would this be a good option? I don't connect to other riders or use the radio So looking for best sound and connection to my Garmin 590 and iPhone 6 Plus, which one would you recommend with the pro and cons

[@RevZilla]

To start, the Sena 10U microphone for the C3 Pro does not get in the way like the SRC microphone. You can see the product photo at the link below. As for sound quality, the UCLEAR speakers are a bit better than the Sena speakers. Rather than using the Pulse Plus Speakers, though, I recommend the common hack of using the speakers out of Koss PortaPro headphones. You'd have to splice them to the 10U though. With the UCLEAR AMP Pro, you probably wouldn't need to modify anything. So, if you want the stealth setup, I'd get the 10U and splice the Koss speakers. If you don't want to modify, go with the AMP Pro. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-schuberth-c3-c3-pro-e1 *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/uclear-amp-pro-bluetooth-communicator-single-pack

[@hognut58]

Concerning what you mentioned about the speakers on the shoei, if I go with the 20s will those speakers fit in the speaker cutouts on the shoei?....thanks for the info.

[@RevZilla]

With the 20S speakers, they're larger in diameter than the cutouts, so you'll need to use the included spacers to fill the cutout. That brings the speakers closer to your ears, which actually can be better. -DrewZilla

[@apo7874]

Will the 10U work with a Shark Evo One?

[@BarbaryStudio]

very good question, how is your experience with the shark eve one i have buyer one only maybe will bring it back and buy the neotec shoes.. the build quality of the shark evo one is not premium, do you used in heavy rain is it goes on the hy way

[@gusalvarado8298]

RevZilla... I have an Arai Corsair X Helmet. The question is; 10U or 10R? with the remote included, both of them are at the same price. So which one is better? Sound quality?

[@RevZilla]

With the 10U, the speakers are fixed, so you can't upgrade the speakers or use earbuds. The 10R has slightly better speakers to start, and if you want to use earbuds or even better speakers down the line, you can get an adapter for the 10R to use different speakers or earbuds. Therefore, I recommend the 10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-earbud-adapter-split-cable

[@gusalvarado8298]

Got it!... Thanks for the quick reply and explanation. You guys do a great job!

[@jakecorn3046]

Will it fit shoei j cruise?

[@misterbean7618]

I purchased an SMH10 (boom mike) a few years ago and paired it with my Shoei modular Multitec. Recently I got the the newer Shoei Neotec which you use in your demo. I switched the SMH10 to the Neotec. I am finding that the Neotec chin curtain (new feature which I like) catches on the boom mike every time I open/close the chin bar. Does the 10U mike catch on the chin curtain?

[@RevZilla]

+Mister Bean No, the 10U microphone is fully contained inside the helmet, so the 10U would work well. However, if you want to keep your SMH10, have you considered just getting a new helmet clamp kit that includes the hybrid boom microphone? The hybrid boom mounts inside the helmet behind the left cheekpad, so it doesn't have to snake outside the helmet. Take a look at the link below for the clamp kit (you would not use the little button microphone that also comes with the clamp kit, as that button microphone is only for full-face helmets). -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-smh-10-helmet-clamp-kit-attachable-boom-and-wired-microphone

[@adamsmato]

Is it true , that this device is after instalation blocking air flow - neck area is blocked by battery ?thx

[@RevZilla]

+Martin Adamčík Personally, no, we have not experienced any significant reduction in airflow after installing the 10U. -DrewZilla

[@JayMoney-zh2ou]

Just to clarify, this is a helmet specific device? I have an HJC, will this fit? Thank you

[@RevZilla]

+Jay Money This is a helmet-specific device. It will not fit an HJC. Currently, it fits some specific Arai, Shoei, and Schuberth helmets. For a low-profile Bluetooth communicator for your HJC, I recommend the Sena 10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@alexdennis5362]

I sweat a lot so would that moisture damage this system? I have the klim kronos helmet, how good does the music sound? This has noise canceling but can I still hear horns or traffic around me?

[@RevZilla]

Even if you sweat, the 10U will be fine. I assume you mean the Klim Krios, and for the Krios, the music sounds pretty decent. The speakers don't have noise canceling, though. It's the microphone that has noise canceling. You will definitely still hear horns and traffic. -DrewZilla

[@alexdennis5362]

RevZilla yeah that's what I ment. thanks

[@veritas1]

Hey Anthony, witch of the Sena bluetooth would be best for a Shoei GT Air or a HJC R-PHA10 plus. Does the S10U fit any of those? Thanks.

[@RevZilla]

+G. Elcadi There is a specific 10U model for the GT-Air but not for the HJC. For the RPHA10, I recommend the SMH10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-gt-air *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-smh10r-bluetooth-headset

[@CW4PWR]

Do you think the Schuberth version will work with the upcoming E1? Since the E1 is based off the C3 Pro.

[@RevZilla]

+CW4PWR We haven't confirmed that yet, but there's a good chance it will work with the E1. -DrewZilla

[@zedisdeadz]

Does any1 know what is the max working speed of the speakers? Can you hear them at 60mph on an naked bike? like Yamaha FZ1, SuperDuke, Speed triple etc?

[@RevZilla]

+zedIsDead It really depends on your helmet and your own level of hearing (or hearing loss). With an average helmet on a naked bike, it's going to be generally harder to hear at higher speeds. If you have a Schuberth C3 Pro, Shoei Neotec, or Shoei GT-Air, the 10U should be loud enough on a naked bike. -DrewZilla

[@nicolaaswalters800]

How well will the Sena 10 U work with the RT 1200 BMW system? Music and GPS. Thanks

[@KimMoonbmwmoonie]

I have the r1200rt and i have been able to have it pair up and play, but 2 things...1: the jog dial doesn't control the volume in the helmet. You need to use the remote control for that. 2: the BMW Bluetooth transmitter is crap, so it doesn't sound as good as the BT from your phones MP3 player. So i use it for my Sena Prism camera and Samsung phone/mp3 and use my BMW radio for music from the speakers when cruising slowly. But it will work. Maybe I'm just too picky. Enjoy!

[@hognut58]

Does this pair up with the sena freewire for HD??.....Thanks for the info.

[@RevZilla]

With the latest firmware update to the Freewire, yes the 10U can pair up with the Freewire. -DrewZilla

[@ClawsonMatt]

Does it blend bluetooth audio imputs (music / nav) like the 20S and is there a 3.5mm output plug?

[@RevZilla]

+Matthew Clawson No, the 10U does not blend inputs. Only the 20S has "audio multitasking". Also, no, there is no 3.5mm output plug. -DrewZilla

[@kamikazee1200]

i have the AGV k5 helmet, the sena 10u will fit on my helmet or not?

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U is not compatible with the AGV K5 or any other AGV helmets. I recommend the low-profile Sena 10R instead. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@carrascoariel1]

Hi , i have the AGV EVO 8 helmet what intercom do you recommend for this helmet. Thanks

[@RevZilla]

The Sena 10R is a good option, though you can mount most any universal communicator (except this 10U, since the 10U is helmet-specific). -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@triplecheeseburgermotovlogs]

Can anyone let me know if the 10u will fit inside a Shoie Hornet DS helmet? also does it feature the ability to communicate with people using none Sena products? I think the 10R and 20S does have this ability.

[@RevZilla]

+triplecheeseburger The 10U models are helmet-specific, so they will not fit the Shoei Hornet DS at all. As for cross-brand communication, yes, the 10U can be paired with one non-Sena Bluetooth communicator. Sena calls this "universal intercom pairing". For a Hornet DS, you're better off with a 10R if you want a low-profile option. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@triplecheeseburgermotovlogs]

+RevZilla Thanks so much for the reply! Definitely considering the 10R, Cheers

[@QbekR]

I got helmet Shoei GT-AIR and I start thinking about intercom. I have search over the internet and I found Sena 10U for GT-AIR. Is it really worth? or maybe Scala made something really good so it would be nice to consider. Can you compare it and what would you commend. Thanks

[@RevZilla]

If you want a fully integrated communicator for the GT-Air, then yes, the 10U is worth it. Cardo does not sell the SHO-1 here in the United States, so we cannot provide a real world comparison between the SHO-1 and 10U though. The Cardo SHO-1 takes up more space outside the helmet, which is why I prefer the Sena 10U integration. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-gt-air

[@QbekR]

Thanks!

[@NiekkieNick]

Hi. I am in the market for a affordable headset for my Schubert C3 Pro helmet. This Sena unit is very nice but price wise it's way above my budget. Looking for a headset that will fit perfectly underneath the neckroll of my helmet. Which one do you recommend? Thanks in advance!

[@RevZilla]

+NiekkieNick You could install the Sena 3S-WB, but it has fewer features. For example, it's only designed for one short-range rider-to-passenger connection. There aren't any more affordable options for the Schuberth with the same features and internal integration like the 10U. The SMH10R has similar features, and it has a low-profile controller. However, the controller does attach to the outer left side of the helmet. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-3s-wb-bluetooth-headset-universal-mic *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-smh10r-bluetooth-headset

[@NiekkieNick]

+RevZilla Thanks for the info. The Sena 3s has one big advantage, and that is the thickers speakers. I purchased the Sena smh5 here in my country ( Netherlands) because it haa the best price/quality ratio for me. Had some troubles installing this headset into my Schuberth c3 Pro. The neckroll is the biggest problem of my helmet. Solved it by routing the wire through the neckroll. Made a small opening in the neckroll to achieve this. Also I had to use the clamp which sticks to the helmet. Anyway, thanks for your answer and advice! All the best, Nico

[@PALAFDIM]

can a user replace batteries in this headset or not?

[@RevZilla]

No, the batteries are not user-replaceable. -DrewZilla

[@chicosuave2966]

Do you think that Sena will make something for an Icon ghost airframe?

[@RevZilla]

+chico suave Probably not, so your best option is the Sena SMH10R or 10R w/ Remote. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-smh10r-bluetooth-headset *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@chicosuave2966]

well crap,how bout the Sena 10c,think that would be a fit for my helmet?

[@jasonholland8731]

Is the Shoei version compatible with the RJ Platinum?

[@RevZilla]

+Jason Holland No, there are only specific Sena 10U communicators for the Shoei Neotec and Shoei GT-Air helmets. The best options for the RJ Platinum-R would likely be the Sena 20S, 10S, or 10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-20s-bluetooth-headset *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10s-bluetooth-headset *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@garymonaghan4528]

any info on sena10c evo battery life when videoing?

[@RevZilla]

The 10C EVO isn't even in full production yet, so we don't have any specifics on battery life. -DrewZilla

[@Tigermeg816]

I have been looking online for feedback regarding the Sena 10u for the Shoei J-Cruise. I currently have a J-Cruise helmet in a size small. Do you or anyone you know have experience with the J-Cruise and this unit?

There are a handful of customer reviews on the product page. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-j-cruise

[@mohammadaladham3246]

Hey, what's the best fitting Sena for the Shoei NXR (rf 1200)?

[@RevZilla]

The NXR/RF-1200 can use almost any communicator. The PackTalk Slim and Sena 10R are the lowest-profile options currently. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/cardo-packtalk-slim-jbl-headset *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@jarno3000]

How is compatibility with my friends' Sena 20S?

[@RevZilla]

+tzalwelzijn All Sena communicators are compatible with other Sena communicators. When a 10U is paired to a 20S, the range is limited to the 1 mile range of the 10U (1 mile is still excellent range for a communicator). -DrewZilla

[@bergwf]

Can the 10U be used without the handlebar remote?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, each version of the 10U can be used without the handlebar remote, but it's easier to operate via the handlebar remote. For example, you would need to open the face shield on a Shoei or Schuberth helmet in order to access the +/- controls of the 10U. -DrewZilla

[@johnsmith-gq5uf]

I have the shoei gt air does the 10u. Have the 20s speakers?

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U for Shoei has the slightly smaller speakers. -DrewZilla

[@sniper0747]

Any chance the 10U will fit the Shoei X12?

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U will not fit the X-12. -DrewZilla

[@w250x]

yes yes yes, we know the 10U only comes in versions for the Schuberth C3/Pro, Shoei Neotec, Shoei GT-Air, and Arai full-face helmets... HOWEVER, does anyone have any experience trying to fit any of the 10U designs into a standard MX helmet??

[@2cool0]

do you know how much the 10s would be? They don't list the pice on SENA's website

[@RevZilla]

+2cool0 True, but it's listed on our site! :D Hope this helps! -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10s-bluetooth-headset

[@2cool0]

RevZilla haha yeah just saw it after posting the comment. i still think it's a little too high. 200$ would have been perfect price. 215 is just awkward haha.....even their msrp price is like 240 or something right?

[@carmineanthonyminardi9530]

Can I use this with the C-3 pro lite helmut??

[@RevZilla]

Yes, it fits the C3 Lite. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/schuberth-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-c3-c3-pro-c3-lite-e1-by-sena

No, Sena does not offer replacement batteries to us, but you might be able to get one from Sena. -DrewZilla

[@hognut58]

Will it work with the c4??....thanks

[@RevZilla]

No, it is not compatible with the C4. Only the SC1 works with the C4. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/schuberth-sc1-advanced *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/schuberth-sc1-standard

[@MrReeci]

Should i get the 10u or 30k

[@RevZilla]

Unless you have riding buddies who already have the 30K, I would go for the 10U. Keep in mind that the 10U is only available for a limited number of helmets. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-neotec *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-arai-full-face-helmets *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-schuberth-c3-c3-pro-e1 *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-j-cruise *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10upad-bluetooth-cheek-pads *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10upad-bluetooth-headset-cheek-pads-for-hjc-is-max-2

[@guilaramalho1]

Is compatible with scala rider g9x?? Comunicates in group with them? I have 2 friends with g9x

[@RevZilla]

Yes, you can pair to one G9X, and then that G9X is paired with the other G9X. -DrewZilla

[@guilaramalho1]

Thank u man

[@RevZilla]

You're welcome! -DrewZilla

[@jbdoggy]

can the 10u be used with the rpha 11 helmet?

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U is not compatible with the RPHA 11 Pro. However, the Cardo Smarth is specifically designed for HJC helmets. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/cardo-smarth

[@FrittenKeeZ]

Are any of the versions compatible with a Premier Touran U9 BM helmet?

[@RevZilla]

+FrittenKeeZ No, Sena does not make a version for that helmet. -DrewZilla

[@FrittenKeeZ]

+RevZilla That's too bad. What would you recommend I get instead?

[@RevZilla]

+FrittenKeeZ I'd recommend the Sena 10R instead, as it's easy to install in most any helmet. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@MysteriousRider84]

does this connect with the drift hd camera with the intercom audio linked on the video footage?

[@RevZilla]

+MysteriousRider As far as I know, the Drift cameras are not Bluetooth-enabled. Any Sena communicator, including this Sena 10U, can be paired with either the Sena Prism camera or Sena's GP10 Audio Back for GoPro cameras. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-prism-bluetooth-action-camera-motorsports-pack *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-bluetooth-audio-back-for-gopro-with-waterproof-housing (GoPro not included)

[@MysteriousRider84]

+RevZilla is there any intercom the will work with the drift hd1080?

[@RevZilla]

+MysteriousRider No, I don't believe there is. -DrewZilla

[@elfo1799]

Hi from France ! Does it fit within an AGV corsa ?

[@RevZilla]

+el gy No, it does not fit any AGV helmets currently. Right now, it's only designed for some specific Shoei, Schuberth, and Arai helmets. -DrewZilla

[@elfo1799]

Thanks a lot for your answer :)

[@CoResTaTiiCz]

Do you have to use the remote?

[@RevZilla]

It depends which version you have, since there are a few versions for a few specific helmet models. For Arai full-face helmets, there is a small controller that mounts on the left side of the helmet. For the Shoei Neotec, Shoei GT-Air, and Schuberth versions, there is a small controller as part of the microphone mount, but you have to fully open your face shield to use those buttons. Those buttons are really just for turning the communicator on and off or if you really don't want to use the remote. However, it's really more convenient to use the remote. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-arai-full-face-helmets *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-neotec *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-gt-air *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-schuberth-c3-c3-pro-e1

[@CoResTaTiiCz]

RevZilla Sweet. Thanks for replying 😁

[@felixjamesbequeso2227]

what products are you shipping here in the Philippines?

[@RevZilla]

+Felix James Bequeso The restrictions change, but we can ship most products to the Philippines. We cannot ship tires, oversize items, or hazardous items. -DrewZilla

[@felixjamesbequeso2227]

do you ship sidi mag 1 boot?

[@RevZilla]

+Felix James Bequeso No, we cannot ship Sidi boots outside the United States. -DrewZilla

[@felixjamesbequeso2227]

can you give me a list of your products that you could ship here in the Philippines?

[@maxjoey197]

does the 10 u work with a full face hellmet

[@RevZilla]

The Sena 10U is not a universal-fit system. Sena makes different versions for only a few different helmets. The only full-face helmets it fits are the Shoei GT-Air and Arai full-face helmets. Unless you have a GT-Air or a full-face Arai, the 10U will not work for you. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-gt-air *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-arai-full-face-helmets

[@maxjoey197]

how about the 10R is that one universal fit

[@RevZilla]

Yes, the 10R is universal fit and will work on almost any full-face helmet. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@greekvenom]

dose it fit in a Simpson ?

[@RevZilla]

No, it does not fit Simpson Helmets. Instead I'd recommend the Sena 10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@greekvenom]

does the Sena 10U fit in the Simpson Ghost Bandit?

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U does not fit in any Simpson helmet. They are only designed for specific Arai, Shoei, Schuberth, Klim, and HJC helmets. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-arai-full-face-helmets *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-neotec *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-shoei-gt-air *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10upad-bluetooth-headset-cheek-pads-for-shoei-rf-1200 *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-schuberth-c3-c3-pro-e1 *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-for-klim-krios *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10upad-bluetooth-cheek-pads *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10upad-bluetooth-headset-cheek-pads-for-hjc-is-max-2

[@yilmarvarela]

If I do an order with neotec helmet could revzilla send me this kits

[@RevZilla]

+Yilmar Varela If you want both items, you would need to order both items. -DrewZilla

[@yilmarvarela]

+RevZilla correct.. But after order both items could be possible do the installation of Bluetooth system on my helmet and send it assembled.

[@786philb]

Don't fancy antenna inside my head frying my brain.

[@HurtCow]

786philb An antenna doesn't emit anything to fry your brain; it merely receives signals that are already floating around out there.

[@RIDEINSECRECYDMV]

Is this better than the 20s? I'm looking for the top dog Sena Headset without the Camera. Also does the Sena Camera version have any features (minus the camera) the 20S does not have?

[@RevZilla]

+OMW2 Fyb The 20S is still the most feature-packed Sena communicator. The 10U shares functionality with the SMH10 but adds support for the included handlebar remote. The Sena 20S also supports the handlebar remote but is available separately. The Sena 10C is also based on the SMH10, so not counting the camera, the 10C functions like an SMH10. The 20S has a longer range and adds audio multitasking. That allows you to listen to music and have an intercom conversation simultaneously. With other Sena communicators, your music is paused when an intercom conversation is initiated. Therefore, if you want the most features, I recommend the 20S. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-20s-bluetooth-headset

[@thure1982]

For HJC RPHA MAX?

[@RevZilla]

No, Sena does not have a specific version for the RPHA Max. For a low-profile option, we recommend the Sena 10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@thure1982]

+RevZilla Can you try putting this version in the MAX? Seams as it should work.

[@JOCS20]

Lol. That intro though...

[@ODanboy]

The instructions are terrible. I wish they would make a video explaining the full functions.

[@NickSparkss]

God dammit, I JUST bought an SMH10, which of course sticks out weirdly on the side of my helmet.

[@RevZilla]

+NickSparkss Which helmet do you have? Keep in mind the 10U only works with a few specific helmets. -DrewZilla

[@NickSparkss]

+RevZilla I have an Arai Defiant, which it looks like the 10U fits on. I'm not too salty about it, my SMH does its job very well even though it looks a little wonky. Thanks for the response though, you guys have the best customer service out of any online retailer I know. Thanks for all the helpful videos and everything!

[@RevZilla]

+NickSparkss Even though it sticks out a bit, I love how easy the jog dial is to use on the SMH10. -DrewZilla

[@Lordbaccus]

you talk to fast & as if we knew WTF you were saying

[@Tufty760]

An absolutely terrible headset. Constantly loses connection to the phone and the tft screen. Multiple phones and two different bikes same problem. Stay clear and buy something else.

[@SenorAsssHat]

So, do you think a Shoei Qwest would be okay? I have a scala right now but the battery has long since died and I barely get 6 hours of music/talk time then it needs to be recharged.

[@kawasexyninja596]

I'm wondering the same.

[@RevZilla]

+SenorAsssHat No, the Sena 10U is not currently designed to fit the Shoei Qwest, so we cannot recommend it. Instead, I recommend the Sena SMH10R. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-smh10r-bluetooth-headset

[@uglahhmane]

Great review, thanks!

[@elieskaf9864]

Does this work on arai signet x?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, the Sena 10U for Arai will fit the Signet-X. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10u-bluetooth-headset-for-arai-full-face-helmets

[@ADVRaiderKTM]

Anyway this can work with the Shoei RF 1200?

[@RevZilla]

No, it will not fit in the RF-1200 at all. -DrewZilla

[@LAalien1]

Does it work with the rf1200?

[@RevZilla]

+LAalien1 User Ojisan642 is correct. It is helmet-specific, so it will not work with the RF-1200. I imagine Sena may make one for the RF-1200, but only if the 10U is successful with the currently-compatible helmets. -DrewZilla

[@erakus]

will any of these work in a exo-900 helmet?

[@RevZilla]

No, the 10U only comes in versions for the Schuberth C3/Pro, Shoei Neotec, Shoei GT-Air, and Arai full-face helmets. We recommend the Sena 10R for the EXO-900. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/sena-10r-low-profile-motorcycle-bluetooth-headset

[@erakus]

Thanks for the info, this is basically for me and my wife on back, she really liked the integrated version. Maybe time for a new helmet.
