Under the Radar: 4 best lifestyle audio devices with practical features

UPDATE: It has been brought to our attention that one of the products listed in this article has received bad ratings and reviews. Therefore, we’ve made the necessary amendments to reflect this change.

Earphones are one of the best accessories that have been made by mankind and boy, there are so many different kinds. This month’s Under the Radar focuses on earphones, but not the typical ones you’ve heard of; instead, we’re listing out several earphones that come with their own unique features.

Domio pro just does not deliver. Phone calls are inaudible, the mount fails consistently, and besides that, the company has not shipped to tons of their backers. They’re also non responsive when it comes to defective units.

I wish the author had used the Domio atleast for a couple of hours before even thinking of writing this up... If this plastic junk figures in best lifestyle audio device, one can wonder how bad the lifestyle is LOL.. seriously, this device doesn't perform anywhere near their claim. It's audio performance is bad, it doesn't stick well to the helmet.. the air mic has only air in it! These guys need to own up the fault and close this trash instead of going ahead and scamming more unsuspecting public! Alternatively, pull this off the market, put in some real work and make the concept work for real and then release again.. as it stands now, it's a waste of money I'd say.. oh, and forgot to mention.. this is not a rider comms device as it is placed. Its supposed to communicate thru an app which is nowhere to be found! So, to reiterate, it's a waste of good money!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! With Under The Radar, we try to shine the spotlight on cool but obscure gadgets, because we know there are some serious gems out there to uncover. Unfortunately, it looks like we did not unearth a gem this time around with the Domio Pro, and we would like to apologize for that.

Thanks for your responses here, and thanks for removing the Domio Pro review from your article. There’s a whole community of people who paid for their Pro a very long time ago who either never received anything, or received a sub par product with defects (mounts fail consistently, battery rattled around in the mic) and Domio’s simply stopped addressing all of these concerns. Their latest claim is COVID-19 has impacted their business, but if you look into actual user reviews (check Facebook for a community of customers) people have been furious about their practices and product (and lack of product) since well before the virus showed up.

Removing it is the right thing to do now that we've found out the truth behind the product. We wouldn't want to promote an item that doesn't perform up to expectations as well. Thanks again for sharing your experience with us!

A real gem, and far worse when it arrives. The mounts are useless and I was told to try super glue? On a vital part of PPE, I don't think so. You can hear more outside the helmet than inside and the mic mount us even worse. I have 2 and will not sell them on because I'm not a scammer unlike Domio.

I still haven’t received the product... asked for a refund heard nothing yet

Mine broke after 3 months and haven’t had one reaction on my complaint since March 2020 :/

The Domio Pro write-up is honestly worthless. I too was an early backer and 2 years later still waiting for the product. Even when the product is delivered to the lucky (or perhaps unlucky) few, it gets terrible user reviews. So the "Ideal Use" for it is not "Motorcyclists" but rather a reminder of a company that hasn't fulfilled it's promises to a large number of customers

Wow..didn't know it's that bad irl! Thanks for letting us know! Did you manage to get a refund?
stuart July 8, 2020 - 6:32 am
Hi Yvonne - thanks for the note back and no I have not received a refund. As noted by others I appreciate you taking the review down. If you look at the Domio Pro Backers Facebook page - https://bit.ly/38yvaYg - you can see how many unhappy people there are. In fact there are over 900+ members of this group. Tells quite a story I think. Thanks again for taking the time to get back to me and the others
Yvonne Ng July 9, 2020 - 1:53 pm
I've checked out the Facebook page! Thanks again for pointing it out and I hope you guys get a refund soon :)

Don’t bother with the Domio. It’s a subpar product from an underfunded poorly managed company that lies and will soon be out of business...hopefully.

Domio Moto Pro as a communication device is laughable. The sound from the mic is trash even with its supposed technology. You certainly won’t be able to hear music much less understand a phone call over 40 mph. Rider to rider comms via an app is nowhere to be found so, don’t waste your money or time. Get a used Domio Moto for less than $100 from some poor soul if you really want a novelty stuck to your helmet... until the mount fails and it’s left on the road. This is coming from an early crowd fund backer who was lucky enough to get his a year and a half later. Most haven’t seen or heard anything about their perk. Delay after delay with timelines always pushed 2-3 weeks at a time. With COVID, forget it. Buy mine.

Forget about the Domio Pro, this company is a real scam ! They never reply, all they do is take your money and NEVER deliver (waiting since october 2018...). This article about Domio pro products is unreal and unfit to the situation. Ask anyone who has had a domio pro, or even domio, they will tell you how bad it is and how fake that company is ! Do NOT buy it ! Keep your money and go buy real devices that have experience and a real brand name on it.
