The inclusion of comms systems into helmets is the arena in which all the major brands are currently battling, as they try to differentiate their offerings from competitors and draw in more customers by offering the latest technlogy.
Nexx has worked with specialists Sena to develop its latest X-Com3 Pro system, which includes both Mesh Intercom and Bluetooth technology. This allows conversation between up to 24 suitably-equipped riders across a 1.2 mile radius, with ANC (Advanced Noise Control) included to make sure that everyone’s opinion of where to stop for a coffee is heard. The system uses Hardon Kardon speakers and has dual device capability, so the user can connect a smartphone and sat nav at the same time, meaning making and receiving calls, streaming music and hearing GPS directions can all be done simultaneously.
The system is designed to be fully integrated into Nexx helmets, clipping into a recess behind a removable flap on the shell with the battery hidden in a compartment behind the neck roll.
The Nexx X-Com3 Pro has an SRP of £339.98 and is compatible with the X.WED3, X.WST3, Y.100R and Y100 helmets.
