Sena has launched the Vortex, a Bluetooth intercom focused on two-rider communication. It costs £139 for one unit or £269 for a dual pack, with up to 1.2km range. The 37g, 18mm-thick unit combines Bluetooth 5.1, 40mm HD speakers, 27-hour talk time, Qi charging and IPX7 water resistance.
What catches Akira's eye is the combination of a 37g, 18mm-thick body and magnetic mounting. With an intercom, daily usability is decided less by the feature list than by how it feels when you turn your head and whether you can remove it in gloves. IPX7 and Qi charging look useful, but I would still want to test speaker pressure and button operation on the road.

A 1.2km range should be enough for normal two-bike touring.
I would want to see whether the magnetic mount stays secure over sharp bumps.
At 37g and 18mm thick with IPX7, it sits on the light side of the category.
£139 for a two-rider-only unit is at least a very clear tradeoff.
If you never ride in a big group, this makes more sense than paying for a flagship unit.
A 27-hour talk time sounds forgiving enough for a weekend trip even if you forget one charge.
Twenty-seven hours is good, but cold-weather battery life is another question.
