- After 2 years ... it has arrived! Just in time for Christmas!
Here I'm doing an unboxing and first walkthrough after taking it out of the box.
Stay tuned for first usage - in real world scenarios.

Looking forward to the performance review. Thanks for doing this. (Nice Salewa top!!!)
interesting. Thanks
Very curious how this does in real world scenarios. Would love this for hiking /biking with friends
Yeah, there’s huge potential, stay tuned for the upcoming videos Michael!
I have answer (I own few Milos):
1) magnetic clip is cool, but basically doesn't work. You can't trust it.
It unmounted even I used just with baby cart and just touch with some piece of clothing or something - I accidentally (luckily) found Milo on the ground. It works when quietly walking or hiking, but for action sports? Just a big joke.
2) sound quality - good for quite walking, hiking or Skialp tour (uphill), if Milo is mounted on your neck close to the ear, maybe chest. Otherwise you can't hear others well even sound volume is maximized.
When skiing, we can barely hear each other because low Milo sound volume and other noise around.
Same is valid for walking with Milo mounted one the baby cart handle. I couldn't hear mother when she was talking. She can hear me since I had Milo on my neckband.
3) Distance 500m direct sight, way less when in the forest or behind any terrain obstacle.
4) delay, many people complaining abou 1s to 1.5s delays between devices. It is not comfortable. On other hand it is a tech limitation, which I'm personally not complaining about. We just need to live with it.
Other negatives?
- Lack of android app
- Plugs to make USB connector waterproof.
- armband and other extra clips are extremely expensive and you can't use existing GoPro kinda holders if you have any.
Any positives ?
Pairing was straightforward.
Battery looks solid.
Online/offline status announcement (even it is not accurate as you would expect).
Message queueing - all can talk together and Milo is somehow queueing and organising message so they don interfere. I didn't try with large group yet but with two/three sounds good.
Worth to buy it?
IMHO simply NO. Solid Walkie talkie with handsfree will do much better job. It will be heavier, but faster and with better range without issues of young product.
@@KamTargonski Hi there, any new videos on their performance? Curious how the meshing works!
Did you test this out in the field?
Can you please confirm if this is a paid sponsorship? Did the vendor review the video before you posted it? Was the equipment given to you? Thank you.
Hey, I confirm, Milo didn’t see this before publishing and I was one of the backers on Kickstarter. Cheers
@@KamTargonski thanks!
👍🏻
bro its 249$ here in the US :(
Yeah, but cheaper each unit you buy. 3 for $400 or something? It's meshed, full duplex communications, pretty awesome for people going places where cell coverage is limited.
