I bought it because it transforms from full-face to half-face, and it has its own clear and tinted visors incorporated, and a great price! What can go wrong here?

It's just a modular helmet, right. The chin piece does not come off. It's like any other modular helmet. You should not ride at any speed over 20km with it up. I don't know the brand, I'm guessing it's an entry level helmet. Reviews are both good and bad. Modular helmets are going to be a little heavier because of the mechanism to open them, also a little louder.

ILM Full Face Motorcycle Helmet Review Round-Up: A Helmet I Can’t Possibly Recommend
When you’re getting started with motorbikes, it’s easy to find the cost of all the accessories you’ll need overwhelming and look for ways to cut costs with cheaper products. However, there’s one type of accessory you should never skimp on – the right protective safety gear – and your choice of...

Brain damage?
“Terrible quality. Helmet was thin and flimsy. Visor flips open constantly. You’re better off to spend your money taping Styrofoam to your head than buying this helmet.”

Im seriously considering a higher end adventure bike...but I've also heard a good aerodynamic helmet makes highway rides and dealing with the wind a LOT easier(usually higher end helmets that are $1000 +/-)
Schuberth, RPHA 70 ST, RF-1400, K6 ETC. None of that GP Pista Carbon stuff, going to sound like a wind tunnel every time you ride on a highway.
Bell Star helmets are good and they’re quiet. I’ve got one for street and one for track. DOT and ECE certified.
Cheapest place I found for them (by more than $100) was FC Moto. I think my last one cost me around $350 delivered.
Same as bicycles. If you are making a price point buy you are almost always better off with the one with the fewest features. A 130 plastic full face may be ok, a 130 modular with integrated brake light is all sorts of questionable.

I had my eye on the shoei gt air 2
How does the brake light work? Do you tie it into the bike brake light?
Nevermind....just a blinking LED.
Honestly for $130, and on Amazon....I’d be quite weary of it.

Saw this at the store the other day, I really like the design on this one:
Alas, I've blown my helmet (and motorcycle) budget for the next couple of years...
Yeah, I'd be returning that.
But why???
