Well worth the money
Amazing little device does everything I want it to and way more. Not used multi rider mode yet. But music and voice brilliant sound with clear voice even when at speed. Sound increases when bike is going faster then reduces automatically when speed is reduced. Some posts said the button to release device can be easily pressed and released. In my opinion this is not the case. When wearing leather gloves the button is a leaver and has to be pulled away from helmet to release, it is not possible with gloves on. Connectivity is brilliant and simple connecting 2 devices it tells you which device is connected. I've chosen to stick mine on rather than use the clamp adapter. No problems at all with coming off. Took less than 1 min to setup in my helmet. Would definetly buy again.

Superb, I just want more!
This works perfectly and has just been replaced with the 4X line I believe. It's easy to install with multiple options and fitted with ease on my helmet. The JBL upgraded speakers have amazing clarity even when cruising at motorway speeds. Find the microphone to be a little difficult when having phone calls at higher speed but it's serviceable otherwise! Haven't tested the unit to unit Comms but I am strongly considering upgrading to the Packtalk Bold just because I like this so much. Battery lasts well over 10 hours and the software is easy to use and understand. Will soon be changing helmets and will transfer the unit across, already know it'll be a breeze.

Easy to Use. Works.
Decent product. The unit is thinner than I expected. Good feature set. Like someone else, I found the voice control worked best when trying a bit of an American twang. Other than sounding like a bell end, the voice control works reasonably well, but nae perfect. Probably due to my dodgy accent. The clamp mounting doesn't fit a Schuberth E1, so it's stuck on. (It's not a two-piece clamp with a screw, as other systems have. It's a one-piece plastic item, that you pull open to go over the edge of the lid. Feels robust enough, but if it doesn't fit well on the lid, you can't fettle with it.) Can easily feel the control buttons through gloves & they're well spaced. Connected first time with (the original Cardo) Schuberth SRC system for intercom. Easy enough to install. Instructions were in French, German & Italian. Plenty graphics though, so not much of an issue. Cardo smartphone app seems to work okay. Like the big on-screen buttons, which helps if you normally wear reading glasses.

Absolute Beauty just one issue
The media could not be loaded. Ok. So after deciding to go all out and get the JBL version, I was not disappointed! These sound like a night club in your helmet. Altough I have encountered a problem the right side earphone as you can hear in the video it seems to rattle almost as if it's blown. I've had them less then a week and never ride with full volume! After testing it at home to see what the max sound sounds like I discovered this irritating problem. Therefore I have ordered a replacement and exchanging for the exact same ones! They are brilliant! Tried to send this to the seller directly as proof that even through a video recording it is very distinctive, imagine in your ear whilst riding! NO complaints, just faulty one.

Brilliant piece of kit
Very happy. I have used 2 previous Cardo systems and this Freecom does not disappoint. Easy to fit, great battery life and good sound.

Most frustrating intercom ever
Meant to make my life easier while riding but instead just annoyed and frustrated me. Every time I asked for music on the only reply I got was “music off”. Then I kept asking and it would randomly call my speed dials. Ask for radio on, “radio on” then silence. I made sure the unit was properly updated and tried different settings but every time nothing worked as it should.Now for other problems, sound quality of phone calls was absolutely awful, anything above 40mph and you’ll struggle to hear what the person is saying. Thats while wearing a decent helmet with low wind noise levels.Music sound quality (when you get it to work) was pretty good but not loud enough for motorway speed.Finally sat nav audio…. The worst possible. Basically It would have been better just to have the satnav speaking through it’s own internal speaker than use it through the intercom.

Great sound
Great sound quality, even at higher speeds on German auto bahn, phone call were good too, no voice distortion. Voice controls couldn't understand Scottish, but just had too change voice and it worked most of the time

Poor phone sound quality, poor support
I have installed this into my HJC IS MAX 2, The speaker cavity in the helmet is a bit too small. It doesnt fit the JBL speakers inside properly but still comfortable. The music quality is very good.I have been testing the helmet indoor first in a quitter environment.The intercom sound is ok. But when making/receiving phone call. The receiving volume is clear but my outgoing sound from mic is extremely low, people can just about hear me.when outside riding I have to repeat everything as people cant hear me very well. Mic is not loud enough.I've not really tested with intercom while riding.Voice command is hit and miss. You ask for the music to turn on instead the radio turns on.While riding the really have to repeat and talk louder.Sometimes is starts calling people in my speed dial list when using voice commands.I have lowered the voice command sensitivity but doesn't help, instead it doesn't recognise the voice commands.I installed the latest firmware version 3.6 as of 03/03/22I have tried to contact support and they still haven't got back to me.I've left a voice mail with cardo support and they got back to me, it would be great if they can publish actual support phone number rather than voicemail line.16/03/22
