Long-range Bluetooth intercom with up to 1.6 km, up to 23 hours of battery and FM radio. No Mesh, but far cheaper.
Why it stands out
Not everyone needs a Mesh network. If you ride with your partner or two or three friends, the BTX2 Pro S LR delivers the essentials for much less money:
- Up to 1.6 km (about 1 mile) of range in this LR (Long Range) version.
- Up to 23 hours of battery according to Midland, more than any Mesh model in this comparison.
- Conference calls for up to 4 bikes and FM radio with RDS.
- DNK filter that cuts wind and engine noise.
What you give up
Without Mesh, if someone in the group drops out of range the chain breaks and you have to reconnect. The sound is fine, but not in the same league as JBL or Harman Kardon speakers.
Our verdict
For rider and pillion or small groups, it is the most rational buy. If you ride in big groups, invest in Mesh.
