10 Reasons to Buy the Neon Okai ES20

  • The IPX5 water resistance rating means that it can be used in light rain for a while without fear of damaging the internal components.
  • The ES20 has a disc and electronic brakes to keep you from skidding and swerving.
  • The display can be customized with three themes and has optimal visibility in direct sunlight for a smooth ride.
  • An NFC card reader ensures your scooter can only be activated with the key.
  • The OKAI app can pair the scooter to your phone. The smartphone integration makes it impossible for someone to steal your e-scooter as only you can operate it.
  • The smart app allows you to control the scooter with your phone, so you can adjust the ride mode/braking, lock or unlock the scooter, and locate it. You can also use it to check your ride history, run diagnostics, customize lights, and monitor your current ride. 
  • The air-filled front tire allows for better maneuverability and easier riding across rough terrain.
  • A one-click folding system makes it easy to transport and store.
  • The scooter's rear suspension system eliminates shimmy and vibration from the solid rear tire.
  • It can handle hills of up to 20% gradient without any difficulty.

6 Reasons Not to Buy the Neon OKAI ES20

  • The folding mechanism doesn't work without a security strap.
  • The app may lag on Android phones.
  • You can't switch off deck and stem lights without the app.
  • The front-facing light is not great for safe nighttime cruising. 
  • It's not ideal for heavier riders.
  • The app will keep running in the background if you don't manually close it after riding.

Electric Scooter Guide

The Neon's acceleration and braking are definitely more laid back than sporty, but it's got power where you need it: hills.
