The Barryvox S2 was released in the USA in the Fall of 2024. I haven't written a review of this transceiver.

Don't confuse the Barryvox S2 with the Barryvox 2. Learn more about Mammut's confusing naming strategy.

Steve's Score has been hardcoded to 5.0 (the same as the Barryvox S).

Here are a few of the more notable features of the S2:

  • A Memory in Pixel (MIP) screen that improves the contrast in direct sunlight or when wearing polarized glasses (and has reduced power consumption).
  • The body is 6mm thinner.
