Popular and what someone is using will be different.
Example I know Cardo is by far a better product. But I have and use HD branded SENA. Because of how HD did things the SENA fits better with my over all system.

I have Cardo on one helmet, and Seña on another. For me, the Seña is a bit more intuitive, but I think the sound in the Cardo is much clearer. On some days, I use nothing at all by not turning anything on, and listening to the wind, motor, and road…….Pretty sure my post did absolutely nothing in helping you determine which one you might like better.

I have the HD 50 with the Whim module installed and it works fine but to me, the wired HD set works fine too. And you don't have to remember to charge it before you go.

Over the decades I have asked Mary if she wants some sort of comms between us. Same answer every time...we talk enough, she doesn't want any comms. lol

Lucky man! LOL
I went with Sena but only because I got their Freewire and it'll only pair with their unit. So far I like it and so does my bride.

What kind of communication are you talking about? Rider to passenger, or bike to bike.

In the first case you missed HD hardwired and Sena Freewire
in the second, you missed CB…

Does it really? Well it doesn't say it can't I guess. Good to know if I need to replace the headset.
"The FreeWire must be paired with a Sena Bluetooth headset to connect with the onboard audio system. Please take the following steps to pair with your Sena Bluetooth headsets"
