PACKTALK EDGE - DUO

I got this Cardo PACKTALK EDGE duo set so me and the missus could have one each. We absolutely love them. They were really easy to setup and fit onto our helmets with the included mounts. Plus they look really sleek and isn't ugly hanging off the side of our helmets like some other ones do. Tbh we actually don't use the speakers that they come with. Because it uses a standard 3.5mm adapter to connect them. We decided to plug in our own low profile earphones instead which gives us way better sound and noise isolation on the road. The app works great and the connectivity and range between us is superb. Another bonus is the in-built assistant, its really useful to be able to just control the music and the Cardo itself hands-free while riding. Definitely recommend if your looking for a top tier comms system for riding, really good bit of kit.

Omg.. I was concerned because of the cost, most I ever spent was £100 on a headset previously.. but this is WELL WORTH IT. Sound is crystal clear even at 70mph.. the ability to adjust its own volume depending on ambient noise around you is great.. I had my music loud and could hear every lyric but I could still hear cars passing me closely too and hear my bike. The cardo voice recognition takes a bit of getting used to, but after a few trial and errors I got better at it.. pretty funny too because i tried every command to get it to play music before admitting defeat and actually reading the manual on its commands.. music on is not in my vocabulary apparently. The voice also hears you even if your in a loud environment and are not shouting. It understands me well despite my Welsh accent. Not sure how it would handle thicker accents though. The cardo voice also makes life easier when wanting to make a phone call or change music etc while riding in busy traffic and you can't free your hands. The magnetic holder is amazing. No faffing around with wires to unplug or charge it.. simply place it near the holder andbthe magnets do the rest. Its also very strong.. im curious by nature so I tried to see if I could pull it off. No you can't and trying will probably break a nail. It's easy to remove properly though too. The mic is brilliant at phonecalls too. Going along the motorway in rain at 70mph and my caller could hear every word I said easily. It seems to be sturdy in resisting water too. I havent tried the intercoms yet but I will update when I do. I'm just waiting on a willing ride companion to Do so. The app is easy to navigate and you can change voice sensitivity and volume levels amongst other things on it to suit you. All in all. I love it. The comparison to a cheap one isn't even plausible. It's better in every way by far.. its worth the money!

Having the ability to answer phone calls and messages is must for me on my bike, not only that having some background music is something that makes any journey a pleasure and for that you need a intercom system. Now we all know there are so many different ones around and I personal have gone through a few myself, from other brand names too cheap imported china own system, and a lot work well, and give you the freedom of communication while on your bike. I use a iPhone as my name phone, and some of the features of this is Siri, Like Android with its Google Assistant, and then there is also Samsung with Bixsby all are great to use but making sure your comms system can work with these are not as easy. I found a few cheap system that work well, but do not last, or the sound quality is modest at best, others like Cardo and Sena are more known for being the best around, and with that they do come at a price. I went for the Cardo based of reviews (like my own) and it offered what I wanted and needed from a comms system. I was able to fully access my phones feature, and with the Cardo Packtalk Edge you also get the “Hay Cardo” feature to make some feature that bit more easier to access. Using “Hay Cardo Music on” to start your music is easy, while yes you can also say “Hay Siri” play playlist bike…. Which allows you easy ways to play your music on the go, the down side I personally found was the “Hay Cardo” like to randomly switch on the radio when I was talking over the intercom, and that it activated without needing to use the words “Hay Cardo”. So having a way to disable some actions would be really useful, like to disable the radio from activating unless you did it from the physical buttons on the unit or via the iPhone app for it. Apart from that the comms side of having a couple of ppl talking over intercom is great, the range isn’t as good as I thought, less than 500m a lot of the time in built top area, and that’s on DMC, not tested direct on bluetooth thou. I love having music on why also talking, that feature alone makes the Cardo worth every penny and there are a lot pennies to buy this setup. The only one other area was sound quality, I did expect more from it for the price, and to get the high spec speakers (45mm JBL) are close to an extra £100 on top. The units are easy to fit and setup with your phone as well as GPS units ( I have mine link to phone and tomtom 550) you get everything you need in the box for all style of helmets to mount it too, and it’s so easy to fit your be up and running in no time. Also now run them to my bike for use which also works great. Overall I really happy with my purchase of the Cardo PACKTALK Edge and It work really well, If they came with the 45mm better sound quality speakers from stock they would get a 10/10 but based on the costs you pay for this setup I can only give it a 9/10. If you want the best and got the money then these are for you no question on that. So easy to use with the iPhone app, and I love all the features. You really couldn’t go back to a standard setup once you tried these. Just need more people to get on the DMC network for more fun in group rides this way 🙂 I purchased the Duo set as I wanted my wife to have one, I also brought the 45mm JBL speaker to upgrade them.

This kit has been amazing! It's so much better than the prevous PTT radios we used to use. We've never had a single issue with hearing false activations of the mic (e.g. when coughing or from wind noise etc.). The Youtube videos on PackTalk YT channel are very infromative in helping you get it set up easily. Battery seems to last forever! I've only charged it a couple of times since initial setup. They automatically connect to your phone and each other so no manual effort required at all. All in all I'm very glad we purchased them!

Works well audio clear. Fits well.

These units are exceptional although a tad pricey, I used them on a recent Ireland trips with 4 x mates who each had Cardo Edge units fitted and the range these units have is exceptional and we never lost contact with each other, invaluable when riding in a group and the voice control is very good too. The Mesh on these units takes motorbike comms to the next level so reliable compared with Bluetooth.

Crap warranty. The control wheel fell out of my unit less than 1 year after buying. It's only been used for about 20 hours of riding, and I rarely touch the volume control. I expected cardo to replace or fix the control wheel as its well within warranty. Was told its not covered under the warranty and I would have to purchase a full new unit, which as we know, is hundreds of pounds. I'd never buy a cardo product again now. Avoid in my opinion.

Having read all the reviews, it was clear that this product was expensive but the best. I bought the duo version if this to support my wife who occasionally rides pillion. The setup was simple and putting the mics and JBl speakers into our existing lids was easy. Setting the iPhone app up was simple and quick. Both systems were love and talking to each other within 30 mins tops (from unboxing to fully set up). Riding with this device active, is so much more comfortable and makes life simple to chat away or listen to music while on the move. I would highly recommend the duo for anyone who has a pillion. While it is expensive compared to other vendor solutions out there, its simplicity and quality is worth that extra spend. I highly recommend it.

とても品質が高い製品です。 接続の安定性、接続の容易さ、電池の持ちなど長距離のツーリングでも問題ありません。 音質に関しては音楽などはロードノイズの中ではっきりと聞き取れる不思議な感覚です。音の輪郭が明確で高音質。 ジェットヘルメットでは少し扱いづらい点があります。

Produto de excelente qualidade.

Jeśli to jest wysoki poziom dźwięków ze słuchawek JBL - to nie chcę wiedzieć jak grają „chińskie” interkomy motocyklowe. Drogo, ale daje dodatkową radość z jazdy na motocyklu.

Je dépose cet avis après + d’un an d’utilisation. Un "crochet ou pince" est fourni pour le fixer au casque, ainsi qu’un support avec du double-face très puissant. Le système aimanté est fantastique. On approche le module et il se met en place automatiquement sans avoir à chercher la position pour le clipser comme les autres modèles. Pour l’enlever, il suffit de pousser d’appuyer sur la sécurité et le faire glisser vers l’avant. Il y a un micro perche pour les casques ouverts, et un que l’on peut fixer directement dans les intégraux. Les écouteurs se place très bien dans les casque qui ont des emplacements prévus. Sur un casque sans emplacements, il faudra peut-être enlever une couche de mousse, ce qui ne joue en rien sur la sécurité car elle n’est là que pour le confort. Dans ce cas il faut "remettre ses oreilles" en place avec les doigts car elle se plient à l’enfilage. Ce n’est pas un problème d’épaisseur de ce modèle, car les haut-parleurs sont assez fin, cela le ferait avec n’importe quelle marque. Je l'utilise pour communiquer à 2, écouter la musique, recevoir des appels et le son est de très bonne qualité. D'ailleurs les gens ont du mal à croire que je roule en moto car il n'y a aucun bruit qui passe dans le micro en dehors de ma voix. La technologie Mesh permet de ne pas avoir à déclencher le micro pour parler car connecté en permanence aux autres modules. Même avec de gros gants, je n’ai pas de soucis pour trouver les boutons. Ils sont assez éloignés pour ne pas se tromper et ne pas appuyer sur 2 en même temps. 1 en haut, 1 à l’avant, 1 en bas et la grosse molette qui est cliquable à l’arrière. Il a 10h d’autonomie avec écoute de la musique, communication, et quelques appels téléphoniques. Je n’utilise pas de chargeur trop puissant et rapide, ce qui je pense préserve les batteries, mais la charge n’est pas trop longue pour autant. Je reconnais que le prix est très élevé, mais on achète un intercom pour des années d’utilisation, et je ne regrette pas mon achat.
