Honestly one of the better, more practical head-to-head videos I've seen on these two systems. I have the Rode system and the charging is a nightmare (I hate messy cables). I may have to make the switch over to DJI - touchscreen, charging case, seems super intuitive/user friendly. I think you might have convinced me Sam!
Haha nice one 🤩💪🏻 it sounds better too. In my opinion. Thanks for watching. Glad it helped 🙏🏻🎥
What about the saramonic blink 900?
@@diegocaracasfc I haven’t used the Blink 900s but I have used the 500s for mobile and I didn’t have a bad experience with them! Clean audio, charging case, and tactile buttons/easy to read screen.
FYI, You can buy a third party charging case fur the rode... But yh, DJI looks like better product
There is a third party charging case for rode wireless
Realistically i think no one will actually record 200 or 250m away from the camera but this video surely can highlight this feature for the dji. I always been a fan of rode for microphones in general but for these models dji clearly wins (although I think rodes shape is thinner and more discreet than the dji). Thank you.
I'm a technician in a theatre who sometimes does audio and we get a lot of videos with that have bad audio because the filmmaker does not have any close-up mics. I know of wireless technology for live audio: we have a headset or a lavalier with a beltpack paired with a rack-mounted receiver that goes into our soundboard. Because that is the only wireless audio I knew, I had no idea of how it could be done in a portable way for one person to operate while being relatively affordable. Thanks to your video, I got a good overview of the solutions out there for this problem and the gear that I would recommend if it got to that.
The DJI’s a no brainer, especially in terms of sound quality. I’m looking to pick up 2 sets of these for recording dialogue during classical music pieces (taking the output of the DJI into my other microphone preamps) or from a conductor in between pieces and tracking them into my recorder/DAW without having to give them a handheld mic that I know they won’t use. This is the second video I’ve watched on these after at first being sold on the Rode and I’ve made up my mind to say the DJI is king here. Thanks for the great video!
How was working with the DJI, one year later?
I wasn't expecting the DJI Wireless to absolutely smash the Rode, wow.
Great video as always man - and boy have your videos ever levelled up over the past year or so! Any time I'm research a topic and see you've made a video about said topic, I always make an effort to watch it. Continued success man 📈
Thanks so much Josh 🤩🙏🏻🎥
@@SamHolland anytime g 🫡
Great analysis Sam. I went with the DJI Mic too (difficult as they were to get hold of in the UK when first released) and I'm super-impressed with it. Been using it for allsorts and really helped with my inside shoots as well as outdoor stuff. The case is a brilliant bit of engineering - just wish they'd made space for the audio cable in there too as I'm often misplacing it!
Check there has been a recent software update as well. I watched a previous vid apparently it’s a good upgrade and solves all the other issues one would have when using this microphone
I just ditched the Rode Wireless Go II for the DJI mics. The audio is _probably_ better on the Rode, but my god everything else is such a damn hassle I just couldn't stand them any more - especially the constant pain in the arse of 3 separate wires for charging and them randomly just failing to charge. The DJI mics are a brilliant example of good user interface design and I'm extremely happy with the swap. The built-in recording system is much easier to use than the Rodes and that means I can use those instead of the noisy rubbish that went through the camera preamps by auto-syncing them in Davinci 🥰
Dji is better in regards to functionality but I prefer the richer sound of the Rode.
Good thing you can plug in a lav and they’ll sound basically identical.
@@RiceCubeTech can you help me better understand what you mean by adding a lav to have a better sound?
@@tricallyourmama the built in mic in the rode seems to be better, but when you plug in the Lav the sound is identical since then the mic is the same.
@@RiceCubeTech how do you go about picking a good lavaliere mic?
@@JacobProbascofor the dji I seen a lot of people use the shure mvl mic
Well that’s a great review 😍
Thank you 😊🙏🏻🎥
I could listen to Sam talk about paint dry. Just enjoy the way he explains things. Btw I have the Rode mics and love them.
Hey thanks so much! 🤩🤩🤩🙏🏻
I’m pleased you enjoy the videos!
Funny you should say that cos that’s my next video 👨🎨😂
@@SamHolland Sure thing man. Only a pleasure bud! Haha
3 minutes into this and you helped me decide (but I still listened throughout. DJI is the choice. Nicely done!
The DJI looks so nice and I love the charging case. I ended up getting the Diety Pocket wireless a couple months ago. It's only single channel, but I got it on sale for $80 and it comes with a lav!
I bought the DJI Mics for my you tube channel. They are, ayou say , brilliant. But, as you say, I bought a different cable. Now they are even better.😀
I'd be interested to see you compare the DJI system against the Hollyland Lark Max.
Fantastic and comprehensive review! Thank you so much. Totally helped me make my decision! Purchasing now!
new to your channel after looking for this exact comparison and I had to instantly subscribe. Can’t wait to watch more of your content over the coming days/weeks.
Thanks so much Jackie. Great to have you here! 🤩🙏🏻🎥
I saw another youtuber using the dji mic and his voice sounded so compressed and tinny and I wonder why his was bad but your voice sounds great on the dji mic.
yup because of this video I will go get the dji mic.
after using budget wireless microphone I realized I need to upgrade. I have DJI drone and the set up is eerily similar, thanks for the great review.
Not even one minute in and already know his favorite 😂
I love the effort you put into this video, and you really helped me choose a mic!! Instant sub 😎
Good video. I've owned the Rode Wireless II for 18 months, but only used it on one job. I've done a couple of tests - and yesterday, the receiver stopped responding to button presses. It's totally locked up and Googling this I see it's not an unusual problem. So the whole system goes in the bin. I'll keep using my Zoom F6 and Tascam DR-10L approach, which really works well. If I ever have a situation where I need a wireless I'll get the DJI. Thanks for your review.
I was going to go with the Rode Go 2 after many happy years with the original, but this video has just convinced me to go with the DJI
Nice video brotha! Love your comparisons, my go to channel 😎
Thanks brother 🤩🙏🏻🎥 just finished watching your video too 🤩💪🏻
Your video made me finalize my decision, I'm definitely going woth the DJI, thank you for the great comparison, keep up the awesome work!
Been looking at lots of reviews, this is definitely the best, liked subscribed and bought the dji through your link, thank you 👍
thank you good sir- i almost hit the trigger on rode- dji is no brainer hands down, the drag and drop of file system alone is a workflow minimizer. more power to you!
Well, first and perhaps most importantly, the DJI sound is way way nicer to start working with than the Rode one, surprisingly. The Rode is wooly compared with the DJI, and secondly, the simplicity of just taking files off to a machine easily and not having to use an app... sold it to me. Great video.
I'm gonna grab the DJI, this video has made the decision simple.
QQ, how did you attach the mic to the drone?
Great choice 👌🏻
Haha I forgot I did that! 😂 I just used some electrical tape
Brilliant!😂 I have the mini 3 Pro, but thought it might have a specific carry cradle.
The DJi Wireless option seems like a no brainer, particularly the easy charge case, minimal cables, size etc. I am shopping around for the best price at the moment.
Absolutely love the Rode Wireless Go II. I wish that DJI case would've come with the Rode mic but there is a nice one you can get for the Rode that can be comparable with it. I will say, I like the look of the DJI better and the performance better. I wanted to save money and stick with the Rode, but I do think the DJI is worth the extra money. I'd say the Rode is a good choice for people on a budget, but the DJI is certainly the best choice.
The rode is $299 the dji is $249 so it’s the opposite
Great video I like the DJI one I have that one, it’s great for phone recording only down though is that you when you use the lighting adapters it only allows you to record in mono only so you cause no mono safety or other channel features or record left right, I think that’s an Apple software problem and maybe a little DJI software but it still gets the job done and works great to help boost the iPhone audio quality. Great video keep up the good work God Bless
Sam, thank you so much! Have been so confused by what to use as we upgrade our Fitness content creation business with limited knowledge on tech - will be buying the DJI now, and instantly subscribed to come back and watch more videos on editing! Awesome channel and super engaging with the delivery from start to finish - thank you!
Thank you Chaz 🙏🏻 I’m pleased it helped. Great to have you here. Stay tuned on the Instagram account too for more BTS 🤩🎥
Thanks for making a point on less then a minute of your video lol totally sold for the DJI's
Hello sir 💚Nice Review. But I have One doubt That is which mic is best. For vlogging In outdoor and indoor, Public places. Please tell your opinion From video I got dji best.
I prefer the DJI personally. More functional and I prefer the sound
@@SamHolland Thanks sir For Suggesting And one more help.. Can You suggest Which is best Action camera for vlogs and travel. Under 30k
This is my opinion - czcams.com/video/5sAyGm_hbe8/video.html
Hey Sam! I think you’ve might of just convinced me maybe. I am planning on doing videos with the mic for about 10 meters or so. I also wanted to do baseball mic’d up videos and I see everyone using the rode mics in that category. Let me know what you think.
This was so helpful! The most simple and clear review video of these I have seen. Thanks Sam 👏🏻
Thank you 🤩🙏🏻🎥
so glad i decided to look at a few different other wireless mics because i was just gna buy the rode wireless go as i seen everyone and their mum use it, but the DJI looks like it's a much better option
Great vid mate 🔥first vid from the new space!
Thanks man 🤩🙏🏻plenty more to come
Great video! New subscriber, thank you! I can't choose between the two but this video definitely helps.
Hey thank you. I hope it helped a little. If you have any questions, please let me know. I’m also comparing the new ones on the channel in a couple of weeks so stay tuned 🤩🎥
Best comparison video! Thank you so much!! Was thinking to order rhode, now I changed my mind. Will get dji
oh - very interesting. I love the charging case
Your rode (raw) sounds dodgy though, mine isn't that bad...
I have the Wireless Go and was thinking about getting Go II since I liked the product, but I can see I need to go DJI instead. A shame Rode didn't take inspiration from Air Pods as DJI seems to have done when it comes to charging and storage :)
Was weighing up which one to get, definitely going with the DJI 🤙🏼
DJI blew Rode out of the water. Crazy considering DJI never started as an audio company.
They have drones and the tech
I'm so happy with DJI mic setup, paired with the Shure MVL is the only option for wireless mic + transmitter and lav. It's $500 for the DJI setup + 2 Shure lav mics. Nothing compares to this setup, I have tested so you don't have to. Go for it!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok. DJI. Got it. Thanks.
Great review. I’ve just gone DJi from Rode. Agree about the cable to link receiver to a camera. Will the nice Rode flat red one work on the DJi ?
Great and easy to follow video!
What an awesome review. You my freind are very talented. Keep up the great work.... all the best Jordan
informative 10mins Sam on wireless microphone useful product.
Just got a new sub here Sam, excellent, no BS or 'filler' in the video, like all vids should be, just superb. Appreciate this review, very helpful.
Also, to me at least the argument for the DJI was strong with all the features but the actual audio just sounded better too. With and without the pre-sets.
Thank you mark 🤩🙏🏻🎥
I always found the Wireless go clunky and hard to use. The UX was just so disappointing. For a while Rode was the only affordable wireless mic around. So glad there is a choice. Maybe Rode will get their act together, but frankly I think I am done with the Go mics. Looking forward to buying a DJI. THanks.
Excellent review and comparison. To the point and clear. I’m inching to the dji upgrading from my single Rode Wireless go system.
🙏🏻🎥
Love the presentation and style! Subscribed 🤘🏼
Lol 🤣 that didn't take long in the vid at all to see which was ya favorite. Thanks m8t👍
Great video and awesome to see you in the Lumix commercial!!
Thank you! 🤩🙏🏻🎥
Wow! DJI was much better than Rode, thanks for uploading Sam :)
Awesome Video. Clever on using Drone as measuring tape. Comparison is concise and very clear.
Thank you 🤩🙏🏻🎥
I have the Rode Wireless Go 2 (bought before DJI released their system). So to combat the charging issue, I got the 3rd party charging case for it (from ZG Cine). However, the Wireless Go 2 has given me so many problems since I got it (not related to charging). After not using them for a few months, I noticed that the battery on one of my TX's is bruised and swollen, so the battery is actually pushing the cover off of the TX. Another problem I've had with the Go2 is it's a pain to turn on & off each individual unit (RX and TX's). Another issue is when plugging the RX and TX's to my PC with the cables, sometimes my PC won't recognize the devices (tried this on multiple computers with the same issue). I'll probably be switching out to DJI soon.
Great super awesome video!!! Love your style and insights!!! I’ll get to your level someday.
Thank you so much 😃 Keep going. If I can do it, anyone can 💪🏼🎥
Great Vid Sam. Thank you. I have Rode Wireless Go 2, and honestly accessing audio on the device has not been a great experience. When the the Rode central app works, the UX isn't IMO that great. And yes, also a pain to charge. I'll be using Rode for backup and switching to my new DJI Mic as my go to.... when they arrive ;)
video convinced me to get the DJI mics for this trip to LA soon. Thanks for the vid. Just subbed. I noticed you have a lumix cam. Any hands on vids with the GH6? I dont see much content around it.
I did a video GH6 vS Canon and S5. I love the GH6
Super super useful in decision-making. Google search sent me to your video. Im happy that it did, now that the verdict is clear. Thank you very much.
Great video - exactly what I needed!
You always know how to do a great head to head test Sam. Never used anything like these before so sorry for the probably dumb question, but do they only record to the camera or can they connect up to a smartphone? My camera doesn’t have a microphone input. I noticed you said about back up recordings so could I use just that?
14 hours is amazing, think you just answered part of my question but I’ll leave it here anyway haha.
I think by the looks of it the dji is the one for me for sure. I really like how the setting you can use straight on the mic itself and not through an app. Plus you get that awesome little case!
And yeah you answered the rest of the question in the video too. Shows that I comment while watching doesn’t it 😂
Great video again Sam! No wonder Stephen Spielberg hired you 👌🏻
😂🙏🏻🎥
Great Video! Helped me for my final decision - THX
Hey. I’m pleased this helped 🤩🙏🏻🎥
This is such an awesome and informative video. Thank you for your time explaining all this.
Thank you So much dear Sam. It was a great video. Can you tell if DJI works well for ambient recording?
The Rode ones really are a pain in the butt to charge! I only have one USB C on my charging dock thingie, so I have to do them one by one. and I usually forget to do the second one haha
edited to add: you can buy a magnet accessory for the Rode ones as well. it's £15 and super strong. Annoying that it's an accessory though rather than included
🤩🎥🔊
Thank you so much very informative love the dji
I was thinking the rhode for car exhaust videos but wow the dji blows it out of the water.
I've been using Wireless adapters for my dynamic vocal microphones for STAGE USE in the past year. I have one set by Carvin and another one called Joyo from Amazon. They plug into the XLR inputs of the Shure microphones that I use. But lapel mics are so handy whereas my wireless units are handheld. And yes, the USB cable splits into twin Micro-USB jacks, a bit of a nuisance. Though, my PA speaker, which is an Everse 8, has a USB charge port so at least the receiver is kept powered whenever the speaker is on.
My concern is that these gadgets, whether DJI or Rode, have OMNIDIRECTIONAL microphones. I am very anxious that they will cause awful FEEDBACK on stage so I don't want to spend money on them unless they have been tested on stage. I don't believe so; they are mainly for use with cameras and cellphones. Ah, well.
Had to stop half way through the video to order the DJI, then came back to finish it.
Nice! 🤩👌🏻
awesome! Thanks for the info. so helpful
😊
got the dji! thank you so much for this!!
My pleasure 🤩🙏🏻🎥
Thanks very informative video!
Definitely helped me decide which of the 2 I will buy!
I've used the Rode WiGo2 basically since it came out, and I think they're great. Kind of. Using the app is a bit annoying, but you just set whichever features you want on or off and leave it there. Set and forget. Never bothered me. Previously you couldn't download multiple tracks off of the transmitters either, but now you can. Just check the corresponding boxes. HOWEVER - the Rode receiver has froze up on me multiple times, and the only way to wake it up is to completely DRAIN the battery, which takes hours... so if you're on a shoot and that happens, you better have a backup or else you're screwed. This is a dealbreaker for me, so I'm definitely looking at switching to the DJI at this point. Great review as always mate, Cheers!
Something that annoys me about the app is the inability to delete individual recordings, you can only delete all! I like to keep a tidy, organised filing system and it sucks to not be able to delete the files I don’t want. It makes finding the actual recordings harder.
this was so helpful thank you!
Glad it helped. Thank YOU 🙏🏻🎥
Nice, thank you i will buy this asap
👏👏👏👏👏 for all the hardwork....well flying a drone to measure the distance is great idea 😄 thank you it will be helpfull
Love this video, thanks❤
Great video man! Do you do anything to the audio in post?
What a great video!! Thank you!
Thank YOU! 🙏🏻🤩🎥
Would have appreciated price comparison too
Great review 🔥
Sam, You doing great job. I like watch your vidoe stuff. BUT Did you have any sinchronized issue witch DJI mic like others CZcamsrs?
Hi. Thank you. No I didn’t experience any issues at all they worked perfectly fine
very helpful thanks!
love ya!! thank you so much
Nice comparison. Team DJI
I want them to have locking 3.5mm and higher voltage for 5v lavalier mics
Great video. Thanks!
Thank you! 🙏🏻🎥
Upgraded to DJI now my Rode Wireless ME sits in timeout.
Great aren't they.
Thank you Sam where would you clip the DJI mic on the groom/ best man to hide it but still get good quality but not on show
Hi, Sam
Very Nice Information thanks buddy. I'm very confused which is the best mic is buy. rode go2 vs DJI mic..
I have NO use whatsoever for any type of mic. But just seeing the case design and ease of use makes me want to buy the DJI microphones 😅
👌🏻😛🎥
Bro this video is fire 🔥
Thank you 🤩🙏🏻 I hope it helped 🎥
The backup recording is excellent for when you accidentally plug the input into your headphone out! (Not speaking from experience obviously!👀) 🙈😂
😂 asking for a friend!
I got the Road a few months ago and it came with charging case, magnet and everything! Did they copy dji?!
Oooo maybe they updated it, or you got the newer version? I recently uploaded my new version too. But I guess since you already have it, it doesn’t matter 😂 enjoy
Really helpful info, thanks for that... One quick question if I may; Do you use any Lav mics with the DJI? If so, which ones would you recommend please?
Which mic are you using . Voice is amazing
