Interphone Sport, Tour and Urban Intercoms Preview

2016 Interphone Intercoms Announced

The Interphone Sport, Interphone Tour and Interphone Urban are each designed for specific segments of motorcycling.

Interphone told us they contracted with the GFK Institute to conduct a detailed research program with nearly 700 motorcycle intercom users over several months to get detailed feedback on what users want in an intercom system.

GFK Institute has also conducted studies for Ducati and BMW Motorrad, so they are familiar with the motorcycle community.

The three new intercom systems are the result of this work and Interphone is in the final stages of testing, with sales to commence in early Spring 2016.

The main “take away” point from the research is that motorcyclists don’t necessarily want a “big features list”; they prefer a system that will perform very well in a few essential features: the intercom, phone, connectivity and music streaming.

Interphone added a few things, including maximizing the battery life (15 hours) with the fast recharging (90 minutes).

Interphone also said they have added “the best sound quality for intercom, music and phone calls”.

A user friendly operating system was a must; Interphone said they wanted to provide the easiest and most user-friendly interface possible, which actually means removing all the menus from the device!

The goal is for an owner to unbox the product, install it on the helmet and use it without even reading the manual.

They told us that this was quite a challenge, because “everyone else in our market when speaking about the products usually just reads the list of features”.

The idea is to “offer a new experience to our users, with the fun provided by an intercom and without the bad points typical of a technological device”.

Most of the details are still being kept under wraps until the official rollout, but here’s a quick look at each of the new intercom systems (via the edited press release text) and we’ll have a review of each as soon as possible!
