BluArmor C20 Intercom Launched At Rs 6,999

Quick Highlights:

• BluArmor C20 intercom is a more affordable version of the C50 series

• It is the most affordable intercom from BluArmor but looks quite premium

• It can be used with the same docks and accessories that were launched with the C50 family

Helmet intercoms are becoming more popular by the day. However, most systems today come at a premium price point which makes the riders hesitate to invest in one. Keeping this in mind, BluArmor has launched the new C20 intercom which is priced at Rs 9,999. To help potential buyers, the launch offer brings down the price to just Rs 6,999 which a steal for this product. To avail this price, you would have to order yours before June 22. BluArmor claims it should seamlessly work with their other intercoms for a distance of about 600 meters and upto 1.2km on a straight empty highway. 

The C50 (C20’s older sibling) was an immediate head-turner when it was first launched with its dock lights and all-new docking system which placed the intercom unit at the back of the helmet rather than on the side - to aid weight distribution. Plus, it introduced features like 2 levels of noise cancelation, Rode Grid 2.0 which enables seamless connections, and re connections, and eRide Grid which enable riders to stay connected over the internet in case they are further apart. But all of this came at a premium cost going upto Rs 25,000. 

The C20 aims to make their new C50 platform more affordable. Using the same premium form factor, docks and accessories, the C20 gets only the essential feature that riders would use more often on a ride. This in no way compromises the functionality or experience of the intercom, but limits a few features. You still get an IP67 protection, OTA updates, magnetic dock with lights, and more importantly 2 levels of noise filters in the mic. It's got everything that makes this a wholesome product. It even pairs seamlessly with the C50 barring a few things like eRide Grid. It can even pair with the older C30 units but without the music sharing feature. 

However, as compared to the older sibling, it will not get features like mesh + music, unlimited group size, phone call + mesh and advance group controls from its elder sibling. It also limits the pairing of a third source after phone and a secondary device like an action camera or a bike console. 

From a value for money point of view, the C20 is offering some serious kit under Rs 10,000. It rivals the likes of the Senna B20 and the Cardo Spirit HD which retail for Rs 15,000. If you are considering getting an intercom, then you might not get a better deal than what's being offered till June 22.
