3.3 Emparellament amb una sola tecla

The one-key pairing feature simplifies connecting multiple radios. To pair, power on both radios while holding down the bottom side key 2 on one device until a pairing signal is heard. The device enters pairing mode with a flashing green light. Then, press and hold the PTT button on the other device to successfully pair.

3.4 AI Two-way Noise Reduction

The MateTalk B4 incorporates advanced AI noise reduction technology to filter out environmental sounds like wind, river noise, and traffic, ensuring clear communication. This two-way system processes both transmitted and received audio, improving the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) by an average of 25dB.
