Brilliant review and SC2 installation guide. Probably the best I have seen. I previously watched an American one which omitted vital steps like taking off terminal covers and connecting the unit, The helmet and system is brilliant I previously had a C3 with communication system which involved a full helmet strip down almost and it never clicked back together as it did. With the C5 app as well this is a dream!
Ive got it 2 DaYS ago, installed it and drove 300 km. Installation is easy with the prepared helmet. Configuration is okay, a little complicated without manual - first get the information out there wich buttons do what and set up everything properly before you use it. Worst part for me is that as he said multitasking (tanking while listening to music) is obly availible in 4 G connection. Over the whole tour i could not listen to my private music.
I just received mine yesterday. I had trouble initially because there was no sound at all with my SC-2. I took it apart a little bit, and I noticed the connection between the back battery and the helmet was not working because the helmet side wasn't pushed all the way into it's housing. It came from the factory that way so I thought I would share in case anyone else runs into this.
Where was this failed connection? I'm finding it hard to get the overall system to work. With several functions, it may be that it actually works but the sound can't be heard, or it doesn't work, which is why there is no sound. Impossible to tell which!
thank you, just spent an hour resetting, repairing remote etc but had no sound, the connections inside the helmet were also out of place, I now have sound
I am also facing the same issues with my SC2, there is no sound at all even after doing a factory reset on the unit. Can anyone please help how to resolve the issue?
Can you please advise on the sound quality/volume on this unit. I currently use the Cardo Packtalk with JBL speakers and it is very loud and clear. How does this match up? An enjoyable and amusing informative video (apart from small details like sound quality....)
It is the loudest I have had. My previous SENA 20S EVO with upgraded UClear speakers was barely 2/3 the volume. At speed it is still sufficient but the bass is mostly lost. I ride with music all the rime and I’m satisfied. I have fitted in-ear wired buds but after an hour they hurt … This system is expensive, state of the art and nicely integrated…
Solved the weak speaker sound issue by moving the speakers closer to my ears with a 7-10mm foam pad. I can feel the speaker lightly brushing against my ear. No hot spots as of yet. I actually have to turn the sound down now.

Sena units (including Schuberth rebrand of SC2 intercom) are not waterproof. Sena is not replacing units which suffered from rain (as I can widely see in internet forums threads). I'm considering Schubert C5 as my next helmet as it has new ECE 22-06 certification but as for intercom... I'll stay with my old all-weather proven and waterproof Cardo Packtalk. Thanks for the nice and professional review!
Any idea if we can install any other communication system ( other than SC2 which seems will not be available soon in our market ) and still benefit from the pre installed Earphones/speakers
If you charge the unit fully then don't turn it on 4 days later the battery level is at 45% but apparently that isn't an issue. Any other items with batteries don't lose 55% of the charge in 4 days with no use
installed my sc2 to my c5 helmet . all working ok apart from the voice activation it did work intermittently for a while but now nothing when i say hey sena ,have reinstalled with the laptop twice and did a factory reset , i think my settings need adjusting any ideas ,it works great apart form the voice activation thanks
To be honest I liked much better the microphoneless system of the C4 (sc1 I think it's called). This new thing has a lot of pieces, not ideal in my opinion. The other one was well hidden in the helmet. I am wondering if the sounds and call quality is that dramatically better compared to the C4.
Will the SC2 connect to custom wireless earbuds? The phone would be connect to the ear buds...but will the helmet connect to the ear buds as well so I can use voice activation make phone calls using the mic etc between the helmet and my ear buds?
What I like about my C4 and the SC1 system is that I have multiple batteries. And I can switch batteries very easy. I wonder If I can do that with the C5 because I have a SENA 50s and when using mesh the battery last 5hours at most.
I wish that I could bypass the speakers for in-ear monitors or ear buds. I don't find that the speakers work too well when I have to wear ear plugs to keep the noise down. Even their stated 84 decibels on a naked bike is a bit loud over time. It looks like a nice, convenient system and I'm sure they will sell a lot of them on convenience alone.

@@migueljonz3901 I am glad that you found a solution to the speaker problem that I have had with many communication systems in helmets. In a few of the helmets that I have had, I found that the speakers were not even placed over my ears and had to modify the cheekpads to bring the speakers in line with my ears. I have not paid any attention to the actual location of the speakers in the C5 because I went with a Cardo unit and in ear monitors with custom tips. I am hoping that I will be able to try out the pads for long oval heads this year because my helmet is a little bit rounder than I would like. It is fine, but I would like a tighter fit around the sides of my head. April can't come soon enough.
I am have great difficulty turning on the remote, I tap the middle top button, the light is red, than some flashing to indicate the battery is fully charged. Then goes off. It's not connect to helmet thou, because no sound saying remote connected. If I wait a couple of seconds and long tap again I get the voice saying remote control connected. I hold + and middle button until I hear remote control disconnected. Repeating this sequence is hit and miss, normally get the red light and flashing, but getting it to actually connect is tiresomely painful 😣 what am I doing wrong
Same here. After power is on I tap plus button 4 times and sometimes it works some times or not. Schuberth says it is normally? They says that remote is going to sleep and have to wake up. Another problem is if listen music on phone example spotify and get call this the line is bad. It have to reboot sc2 and then it work. Very disappointed on this.
Well guys, it's beyond obvious you didn't follow the proper procedure for connectivity . The unit comes with an owner manual with a bar code link to a video where an alien from another galaxy gives you the instructions with thick accent.
Where does the mic sit? I find with my C5 my mouth/jaw is *very* close to the front of the helmet, and unsure how that will fit there w/o being uncomfortable.
this sounds like the upgraded SC1a which is pretty dang phenomenal compared to what's out there, the battery life on my SC1 advanced is a long time, days.. and the FM reception is real good, a dedicated FM antenna meansmore stations maybe HD... they need serious capability .. :-) once you take the time to learn this thing, use youtube and the operation manual you will love it, connect to your phone MP3's.. do you want phone interrupt, voice activation? voice texting while you ride using your remote buttons that clips on your clip on... its up to 9 conference call 1.5 mile or so range, however it does not daisy chain and that phenomenal so if you have 30 bikes spread out 1.5 miles each you will have a range of 75 miles, now that's how the SC1 should have been made, still time for a software upgrade... I like he fact you can voice command, so if you go down and have no use of anything but speech you can still reach out using voice command, a keyword then "call 911" ... "locate my position and text to this number" yup for me the FM is fantastic and teh carbon EL is quiet and so comfy, more padding, low noise... but knowing I can use a button then voice to call 911 to come pull over road rager whatever is great, or the fact you can conference talk with up to 9 others, crystal clear too, no pressing buttons, no obtrusive hardware.. the SC1 is harder to see than this its all inside the helmet... modular, I love it.. then having all my MP3's and ready to listen to at will, pause, make a call, receive a call, activate GPS with voice command, then talk to me turn by turn while I listen to tunes... it pauses then gives direction then back to music till the next turn... you c an integrate almost any bluetooth device specially comms... the way they fit them into the helmet is so nice, those usints that stick out of your helmet I don't like you have to watch them all the time where you set your helmet down so roth, they make noise at speed, and are just goofy looking plus you have to touch a button onem to get it to work, who wants that? I want hands free on my bike, car too.. my last SC1 got unit with battery and charger, and remote for$250 was it... GOOD PRICE and with these Mesh units comeong they will go down, might have to get me a C5? wait for the carbon, so much lighter and quieter... don't get the matte finishes, they are noisier at speed...
I bought the C5 helmet for this very feature, to save a lot of dicking around with wires, speakers, and mic. The question is, can the SC2 be used as a bluetooth mic for vlogging to your phone? Mount phone to handlebars or behind screen (in landscape mode of course), use an app like ProMovie on iPhone to shoot the video? This app has an option to use bluetooth mic, so looks promising. Going to buy one soon, just wondering if anyone has tried this already?
@@incursore9 Ah no, forgot all about that! Bought an SC2 a couple of months ago, haven't used that much but will try this tomorrow if I get a mo'... stay tuned ;-)
@@incursore9 Ok, so the SC2 works on phone apps that can select a Bluetooth mic. Works on ProMovie, but there is no gain adjustment so the output isn't that loud. There is also a bit of a lag (this is a Bluetooth issue) when listening to your own sidetone, so suggest dropping the speaker volume low while you're recording or it sounds very weird!
Very informative video; thank you. Could you please tell me if the Schubert SC-2 is the same as the Sena unit? I would like to buy a Schuberth C5 helmet with the built in speakers and add communication. Is there an advantage to the Schuberth SC-2 over the Sena? Thank you again.
Is this the same system I need to get for my new S3 - I note the microphone included in the box but there is a pre installed microphone on the S3 which is confusing me a bit?
Hi! Is this SC2 comm system compatible with Cardo system? My wife has a Cardo comm, will it be possible to connect to her system with this SC2? Thank you! Great review
Users can use the existing Two-way Universal Intercom and Mesh Intercom function at the same time. In this case, it is recommended to communicate with non-SCHUBERTH headset via Two-way Universal Intercom connection and use Mesh Intercom between SC2 headsets. A user who is in Open Mesh or Group Mesh when using Mesh Intercom is able to include one Universal Intercom Friend. You can start a Two-way Universal Intercom conversation with your Universal Intercom Friend to include it in the Mesh. I hope this helps.

Jeg har kjøpt meg en C5 hjelm men, jeg klarer ikke å koble den opp med min mobiltelefon om det smalt i H-----, er det noen som har en god forklaring til meg som hjelper.
Rechargeable typically means the battery is built-in and batteries have a finite lifetime (especially rechargeables). Also, built-in batteries are not usually user-replaceable. This means a rechargeable remote unit will eventually stop working and the entire unit will need to be replaced while a unit with a replaceable battery can have a much-extended life. I ran into exactly this problem with the Sena handlebar remote control - the one prior to the RC4 - and it didn't last as long as you would have expected it to.
Great video and bought a new helmet and the SC2. Trouble is, the app just won't connect to the SC2 nor will to my SatNav. So, a great video. Crap product
I have massive Problems with mesh, (>10 Meters an my mate wont unterstand a Word), But bluetooth works Fine, anyone a fix for this? Antenna Cables are connected properly :/
I can't think of anything else you could try. I'm assuming it's fitted correctly? Just check to make sure the main box on the back of the helmet makes really good contact with the brass pins. Sometimes the brass pin plate gets pushed in! If not maybe you have a faulty unit. B.H.
thanks I really only want it so I can listen to my own music and not DAVE lol but it would be good on a bike ride pointing out Safety cameras and speed traps oh did I say that .... to late
Nice review. Have just bought a C5 with SC2. Can you pair an RC4 remote controller with the one sitting on the helmet (2 remote controllers)? If so, how do you do it? Are you going to support this with a firmware update? Sent this question to Schubert but has not yet received an answer!
Hi Jarle, I had the same issue. My dealer (after consulting the import company) says, thr RC4 is not working. You also never get into the menu point "connect remote control". I returned it and try to learn the voice commands as a workaround.
@@schecktor Hi Christian I have made the RC4 work by pairing it with the "main unit". Hold the power button for 10 sec and you get the choice to pair with remote. Then it works, but you can only have one active remote at a time. Power up the helmet to press the RC4 immediately and it will become active. The same if you press remote on the helmet and it becomes active. Has received an answer from Schubert that this is correct, but they should take it on to Sena about opportunities to change this in the future. Maybe it comes with a firmware update, or there are limitations in bluetooth technology that prevent this from working.
Everyone tells you how to fit it. That's nice, but that's not enough. Very easy to fit but unreliable communication, massive latency, one of the worst manuals I have ever seen. Sending mine back.
Really annoying visor but there is a $1.00 solution. Get 2 felt pads for furniture feet and stick them in the visor attachment holes. They fit perfectly and the visor stays where you put it at … well in excess of legal speeds…
We’ll the sc1 in my schuberth e1 was useless , this seems over complicated . All i ever see is guys stood about connecting thier comms , would rather just ride and chat at the cafe . Annoying that ive paid for a c5 with all this stuff inside that i dont want or need , but i liked the helmet
Gosh mate, nothing against you. But I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people felt like 'what da heck, this guy doesn't know what he's doing..." This just shows how the design is idiot proof.
Yeah. I can agree. It's a really detailled and "almost" complete review. But, my one and only question is about the connectivity. Can this system ONLY connect to other "Schubert C5 SC2" or can it also connect to some other intercom systems? Not all my friends have this system and not everybody is willing to spend quite a lot of money on this specific system. This week I finally bought this nice helmet, and next week I hopefully will get this "SC2". Then I will have to wait and see, how this connects to other helmets in the group, or if it is a specially selected "Schubert-group".
Your shirt triggered a memory, something familiar….then it clicked! The predator!! 🙌🏻
This is one of the most detailed and clear reviews I’ve seen ever.
I have used mine now for 5 months no issues good clear sound excellent product

Been using mine for a few days now, fantastic system!!
Does it have any difference in features with the Sena 50s?

I’ve got this and find the audio to be crystal clear. Particularly during a phone call, no issues with hearing what’s being said etc. I’d recommend it
It is the loudest I have had. My previous SENA 20S EVO with upgraded UClear speakers was barely 2/3 the volume. At speed it is still sufficient but the bass is mostly lost.

Wow, what a bummer. Is it SCHUBERTH policy? What if I am traveling in other country and have an issue with my SC2?

Never, ever have sena failed during rain and i live in a country where rain is present about all the time during summer.

Great video, is the battery rechargeable, or have to replace it when dead?? What type of battery is it??

The voice controls "hey sena" not working at all. Not sure if it's a firmware issue? Tried everything including saying hey seenah. Pretty poor
On mine, using Android, I say 'Hey Google' and Gemma says 'Hey Siri' through her iPhone, and it works fine.

Yes, it is basically a Sena 50s unit made for Schuberth.

@@pauloneill8912 Yes. With a LOT of force and willpower
And I do mean a lot.
@@hannesgreen638 thank you, now I'm nervous
@@pauloneill8912 i had to remove the padding and pull the other end as I push on the microphone
@@hannesgreen638 thank you will give it a go
Isn't it weird that the helmet is all wired up and ready to go, but they couldn't be bothered to run a wire to the controller?
Why wouldnt they make the remote USB changeable? Seems having to buy batteries regularly would be annoying.
Rechargeable typically means the battery is built-in and batteries have a finite lifetime (especially rechargeables). Also, built-in batteries are not usually user-replaceable. This means a rechargeable remote unit will eventually stop working and the entire unit will need to be replaced while a unit with a replaceable battery can have a much-extended life.
I ran into exactly this problem with the Sena handlebar remote control - the one prior to the RC4 - and it didn't last as long as you would have expected it to.
How can I pair with a Cardo Edge ?
Hi, yes this will pair with your Cardo Edge on Bluetooth with your edge in phone mode. BH.
Are speakers already built in?
The wiring & speakers are already built in @GruntHarley. The rest is Plug & Play. B.H.
Great video and bought a new helmet and the SC2. Trouble is, the app just won't connect to the SC2 nor will to my SatNav. So, a great video. Crap product
I have massive Problems with mesh, (>10 Meters an my mate wont unterstand a Word), But bluetooth works Fine, anyone a fix for this? Antenna Cables are connected properly :/
The first thing to check is whether the system needs an update?
@@BikerHeadzThanks for the Answer, checked that, but no Update available :/
I can't think of anything else you could try. I'm assuming it's fitted correctly?
Just check to make sure the main box on the back of the helmet makes really good contact with the brass pins. Sometimes the brass pin plate gets pushed in!
If not maybe you have a faulty unit. B.H.
@@BikerHeadz ok thanks for support
thanks I really only want it so I can listen to my own music and not DAVE lol but it would be good on a bike ride pointing out Safety cameras and speed traps oh did I say that .... to late
The thing about the radio is not true, other prucenters also have a radio
Nice review. Have just bought a C5 with SC2. Can you pair an RC4 remote controller with the one sitting on the helmet (2 remote controllers)? If so, how do you do it? Are you going to support this with a firmware update? Sent this question to Schubert but has not yet received an answer!
Hi Jarle, I had the same issue. My dealer (after consulting the import company) says, thr RC4 is not working. You also never get into the menu point "connect remote control". I returned it and try to learn the voice commands as a workaround.
@@schecktor Hi Christian
I have made the RC4 work by pairing it with the "main unit". Hold the power button for 10 sec and you get the choice to pair with remote. Then it works, but you can only have one active remote at a time. Power up the helmet to press the RC4 immediately and it will become active. The same if you press remote on the helmet and it becomes active. Has received an answer from Schubert that this is correct, but they should take it on to Sena about opportunities to change this in the future.
Maybe it comes with a firmware update, or there are limitations in bluetooth technology that prevent this from working.
What if somebody rides alone and not very talkative?
microphone does not click in, its inserted very loosely and comes out far too easily, just opening the helmet dislodges the mic, I'm not chuffed
Everyone tells you how to fit it. That's nice, but that's not enough. Very easy to fit but unreliable communication, massive latency, one of the worst manuals I have ever seen. Sending mine back.
Difficult to pair with phone
Ok, you sold it to me
Battery wouldn’t charge after 12 months can’t buy a internal battery have to buy a new unit what a rip off, I didn’t get a spare battery .
😡😡😡😡Just removed the Shuberth C5 from box , first ride , totally disappointed , the visor is loose and can't stand open even at 40 km/hr speed 😡😡😡😡😡
Really annoying visor but there is a $1.00 solution. Get 2 felt pads for furniture feet and stick them in the visor attachment holes. They fit perfectly and the visor stays where you put it at … well in excess of legal speeds…
We’ll the sc1 in my schuberth e1 was useless , this seems over complicated . All i ever see is guys stood about connecting thier comms , would rather just ride and chat at the cafe . Annoying that ive paid for a c5 with all this stuff inside that i dont want or need , but i liked the helmet
Gosh mate, nothing against you. But I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people felt like 'what da heck, this guy doesn't know what he's doing..." This just shows how the design is idiot proof.
price is ridiculus, should be like 100 to 150 $ max...
Most decidedly not a review
What stupid design when the remote is not powered by the main battery.
Yeah. I can agree. It's a really detailled and "almost" complete review. But, my one and only question is about the connectivity.
Can this system ONLY connect to other "Schubert C5 SC2" or can it also connect to some other intercom systems?
Not all my friends have this system and not everybody is willing to spend quite a lot of money on this specific system.
This week I finally bought this nice helmet, and next week I hopefully will get this "SC2". Then I will have to wait and see, how this connects to other helmets in the group, or if it is a specially selected "Schubert-group".
thats exactly what I want to know. I want to buy this system but my friend is using another one, so can she connect to me?
They do connect to other mesh enabled systems.
Clear visor falls down at low speeds terrible design
Great review. Thanks!
