Sena 10S Review(s)

Post by WhiteNoise »

Sounds like Sena did it Right!

Below is link to WebBikeWorld's review (Feb. 2016)

They're also liking Sena's Quick Start Guide ;) That's nice for those of us (me) that are Not familiar with their line of bluetooth headsets.

These have a learning curve that's for sure. Iv'e been out several times with Sena and I wish it was more like amazon echo
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00X4W ... m21vzgfo_b

Things I use regularly with Sena10 bluetooth;
answer the phone,
dial out using 'hey siri'
listen to me tunes since its always paired with my iphone
adjust volume
that's it for now, but I guess it can do much more
maybe I learn more when the gloves are off

I'm actually a more tempered motorcyclist with music in my ears youyou. Granted I don't want business when I'm out on the bike but I don't need to miss business either or I couldn't afford a decent bike :D Mostly I just need to know when someone is trying to contact me and I'll pull off and see if it warrants a call back. As for the music I forgive a lot of stupid people out there when I'm happily jamming along and I tend to speed much less. My brain with just the road and a motorbike alone?... can get me in trouble.

:D :D Just fitted a Sena 20S to my LS2 Full Face, and expected all sorts of problems due to the internal visor controls being located at the base of my helmet, which is the prime spot for the installation of the Sena.

I'm pretty much a klutz when it comes to anything with an instruction manual that is more than two paragraphs long, but I had the whole thing installed and functioning in under three hours. My wife is still shaking her head at me walking around the house wearing my helmet, talking to it, and singing along with the music. She also got sick of me telling her not to answer our home phone, as I made test calls using the Bluetooth connection to my iPhone. I have set it up to use Siri to call my numbers and it works well.

It's a great product and I'm really pleased how easy the actual operation is. I bought this primarily for its phone function, but the music streaming and FM radio are a bonus. :D :D

Yes I think you will enjoy the ride with Sena John. People can't tell you're on the bike, amazing considering the muffler, traffic sounds and the wind whipping around outside the helmet.

I want a new model with FM radio. Sometimes my phone screws up and I'd like to be able to quickly switch to radio. I enjoy listening to morning shows too.

I recently purchased the Sena 10S and it has FM radio. So far, I'm pleased with the functionality; you have to read the manual and learn how to access all the features. The only downside is the quality of the speakers; they are not very good at all. They are acceptable. The speakers don't get very loud and for safety reasons, that's okay by me. There is an auxiliary port on the side clamp that allows for plugging in aftermarket speakers or plain old buds.

I didn't feel the need to jump in at that price point so I opted for the 10S. It does all I need it to do. Mesh is a great additional feature though. I've heard users having problems with music cutting out or hearing static while using mesh intercom. Also, the 30K is only able to Audio Multitask with other 30K users. Some have pointed out the speakers are definitely better. How much better? I don't know.

I needed a pair for the fiancee and I and I found a decent deal for a pair pack. However, I bought a 20s mount and speakers for my commuting helmet so I could use the same radio on both helmets (hi-vis orange, but less comfy for long periods) and the 20s speakers are a little inferior to the 30k speakers - but my commuting helmet is so much louder than my nice helmet it's really no big deal.

Take a look at the Cardio Packtalk. Better device, better warranty, and waterproof.

Hedge, can you post the full youtube (url) to your videos? All we see is a black screen with "error...."
And that's not just your video's but all past and present.

Owner maddiedog recently updated our forum(s) with a security update. In the process we lost our Videos and those being posted. All pop-up "error."
We ask members to be patient while maddiedog works his magic ;)
