SENA SMH5 Bluetooth Headset & Intercom with Universal Microphone Kit - Dual

Other than very easy to install and a robust enough unit. Bought this to enable connectivity for pillion to Cardo Pack talk edge as quick cost effective solution. Used the universal Bluetooth function. Connected easily, clear and simple...Given the low price and the functionality I was after..good purchase and as always quickly dispatched.

Does the job at reasonable price.

Good product. Easy to fit and works well with pillion or riding closely with someone. Works well with music or sat nav. Sound is good. Battery life is long, even on an older one a few years in. Economical, and see no point spending more.

The intercom itself, is crisp and clear. It does drop out on the odd occasion and is difficult to reconnect. But for the job, it does the job. The kart was 500m and there was no drop in connection, despite the distance. Updating the firmware is a little fiddly but having Googled, this is more related to Senas software and their customer service isn't the best - especially for a 12 year old headset. If you are looking to purchase this, for a cheap and cheerful product, I recommend the SMH 5, but ensure you have the latest model which is the USB C and not the Micro USB connection for better stability. The ruggedness of the headset will last. The music via MP3, is very, very clear and haven't experienced any drop outs yet.

I purchased the intercom for go karting, I am a complete novice with helmets, intercoms and the likes and the lady behind the counter went through a number of options, recommendations and pros/cons. Even to the point of instead of buying a dual box, to buy them singular as I will save £15. Doesn't sound much but for a first time buyer, my experience of Sportsbikeshop has been brilliant. They even fitted the intercom for me later that day and made me a coffee while I wait.

5 stars for SBS, but 4 for the product, due to the intermittent drop offs on 2 way intercom.

I’ve had one of these for 12 years and is still going strong the only reason I bought as new one is I changed my helmet and as I was so pleased I purchased a new one. Value 10/10 easy to fit 10/10 reliability 10/10 and so on. Thank you SENA.

I brought this for use by my "Students"
I already have the same model attached to my own helmet.
That has been good for around 3 years

This was about the cheapest in helmet comms I could find! We already have one of these on the wifes helmet and it works really well, especially for the price.
I can only comment on the fact that it pairs well with my other SENA SRL10 and you can hear music or podcasts very well. It is basic but it comes with 3m stick on pads or a grip clip type attachment and it does exactly what I want. It even fits my flip up Neotec

Item good for music but intercom is rubbish. You need a helmet that offers complete protection from wind noise. Button is easily pressed as well when turning your head so if you are riding 2 up etc it disturbs their music/phone etc as it thinks you listed the button for the intercom. Fitting was a bit fiddly into my helmet but to be expected as it can’t cater for all helmets. Would definitely recommend just to use for music or phone but intercom wise, look for something better

Used the SMH5's for quite some years and tens of thousands of miles. Bought these to replace the older one's. In fairness the old ones still work but have been relegated to our back up helmets. They pair to phone, sat nav and each other, plus universal pairing for connecting with other brands, what more do you need.

Bought these purely on price although I have heard of Sena as a brand. for a pair this seemed cheap I only wanted them for music on the go and maybe Sat-Nav. Found them easy to fit in both a flip and full face, nice that a boom mic and cabled mic are included. Good selection of Velcro pads to secure and foam cushions for covering. Sound quality is good, volume good, clarity good. We have an issue with pairing for intercoms so one star off. Other than that good value.

Excellent comms between rider and pillion, Bit fiddly sometimes adjusting intercom volume.

Good battery life and audio quality, the speakers aren't too big so you don't feel them inside your helmet. The styling is a little old looking in my opinion

Easy to fit & works well for price.
It's not the best but a quality device for the price.
SBS were extremely helpful as usual.

I bought these for me and my son to use together when riding together and they are brilliant. Way better than I expected for the money. My son finds the toggle button a little clumsy, but he is getting used to it now.
