Sena Tech Talk: 50R & 50S, Mesh Redefined

The robust reliability of Mesh 2.0 Intercom is here. The 50R and 50S are now available globally.

Sena’s Mesh 2.0 Intercom brings a new level of robust, reliable connections and flexible network message routing to the 50S and 50R thanks to significant technical enhancements made to the original Sena Mesh Intercom™ algorithm. Mesh 2.0 Intercom transfers up to 80% more data between headsets, even in harsh environments, resulting in clear and crisp conversation. Mesh 2.0 technology offers an unprecedented level of intercom audio quality and robust connectivity.

Some additional 50R & 50S highlights include:
- Redesigned HD Speakers with more power, clarity, and comfort
- Bluetooth® 5.0 enabled
- Voice-activated digital assistant access (‘Hey Google’/’Hey Siri’)
- 30% faster Rapid Charging
- Automatic firmware updates via the included WiFi Adapter
- Multi-language Voice Command support
- 4-way Bluetooth Intercom

The R is ok but imo needs vlogging feature - microSD audio recording of conversations - for video editing. or get your camera stabilization to match GoPro 10 hypersmooth

So sena took over nolan right? I had a few Nolan divices . What i loved was that it had a moving sensor (technology now being owned by sena). This had the benefit that if you put away your helmet (or picked it up) it turned off after a while (or turns on). Now sometimes i forget to turn off my sena and the battery goes dead.

Please implement this technology.

My mates in Australia that still have the cardo units drop out all the time when we ride and won't pair sometimes to other makes. Never have those problems with Sena. I have seen reviews that come out of Europe saying that Cardo units are better but our experience is Cardo sucks. Got a couple of friends in the US and Canada and also say Cardo is old hat and problematic so they all switched to Sena. I have a 10C and its awesome for the last 5 years and used it in all weather conditions. Perfect tech for touring.

SENA You need to update software to be able to cancel Wind noise if rider has a helmet where the front of the helmet can flip up and the wind goes louder in the microphone.

Finally was able to get mine paired to both my Indian Roadmaster and my cell phone. As well as getting the wifi adapters up and running.

[dannymendoza]

How about a detailed description on the differences between the s and r models?including any cost difference if any?

[alanhassall]

I am most interested in the aspect of the better sound. I have a 20S that I use for audio since I ride alone. I wear earplugs and have been very disappointed at the lack of volume to overcome the earplugs which I use to keep the wind noise down. Has the sound been improved in volume?

My friend and I just upgraded our 30K's to Mesh 2.0 The range is about 100 feet and then you lose intercom contact or it cuts out all the time. We turned off Mesh and switched back to bluetooth. When is Sena going to get this right?

[chrismorris]

When is Harley Davidson going to have a 50S for the Boom series?

[hans]

Sena should update the Software for orher Sena devices.

I got the 30s and the 20s evo. They both don‘t do their job.

And please get a Modus to pair with Cardo devices.

[timyassa]

They need to release an update for all sena's to get their mesh system

[seyirdefteri]

What is the difference between 50s and 50r..?

[chainsawversustree]

Never been able to get the Wi-Fi adapter to work, the 50 R is complicated, there is simply too much to remember for each function, too many button pressing combinations. Constantly keeps trying to connect with another rider even though I'm riding on my own in the middle of nowhere. If you have to carry the instructions around its too complicated.

[RoadE]

Imagine 24 sound in your helm...
Hmmm....

[DamnitDave]

Great technology...but... lack of waterproof will be a constant complaint in every Especially since cardo is able to promise waterproof and replace water damage

[douglaskirk]

Might want to skip this and not be their test monkey...again...I bought a 45k bike and they gave me the cheapest model they had made exclusively for that bike on a Harley. I upgraded and got a SRL-01 made exclusively for the Shoei note 2 again...complete difficulty with set up, com connects and voice activations....Again reached out to in line....Got treated to a robot response telling me to follow the customer support. No buy backs, no upgrades, no make it right customer service at all....after buying 3 different units and having problems with all of them....Its time to move on. Possibly I can be helpful in getting the word out to save people the hassles I went thru.

[PGlex]

Just saw the new released vid where it is announced that 'old' 30k will receive an update by firmware to get access to Mesh this informaiton i am wondering if it would be clever to spend 100 more/piece only for getting the quickcharge + audio handsfree control + better Speakers. Because rest is more or less the same then. Anyway will go for the 50s as soon as it is available in Germany.

[MarioMotoVlog]

Will your Sena finally connect to Gopro 7 and 8? It is a time of change to profit from sales. A large number of Vlogers are waiting for this. When will the Polish language be available?

[PaulFraser]

Can I play music from one phone in to two helmets?

[woodsomstravels]

Does it still say low battery just 10 seconds before shutting off like the SMH10 and the 20EVO? Oh and really, still not waterproof? Hello Cardo
