I just recently purchased this microphone, so I haven't had a chance to test it out yet, but your test of it was excellent. We appreciate your efforts in demonstrating the differences between using a mobile device with and without a microphone.
So glad I could help
This video was excellent. I was tentative at purchasing this based on the price, but after this video I feel like it does exactly what you expect it to. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
For sure. It's not studio quality, but it definitely does well, especially for the price
I think it's excellent@@GrantButler
For 10 bucks on Amazon you get 2 mics, i didnt think twice
The excitement on his face he showed when he heard how good it was the first time, lol.
I was sceptical about buying one but now im going too after this review.
Thanks
You really lay it out all so clear, down to the level of a tech-deficient guy like me. You're sort of just discovering it all as you talk about it makes it more captivating and easy to follow.
Thanks, that's exactly what I'm going for. It doesn't offer a lot of features, but it gets the job done
My guy, thank you a hundred times . Great video. Was really wondering about this ..🔥🔥🔥
This is an excellent review video! You literally answered all the questions I had. Thanks a lot ✨
So glad I could help!
Yes the sound sounds great you immediately got louder
First time seeing your vid. It popped up while I was looking for mics to start my vlog channel using my android. You are such a joy to listen to. Based on your fun personality alone I subscribed😊. And you helped me choose the mic to start my vlog.
Wow! Thank you so much for such a kind comment! 🥰 Good luck with your Vlogs!🫡
Well done Grant, this is a brilliantly clear and clean instructional video. Good job!
I'm glad you appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Mine just came today, tested it after 1 recording.....couldn't be happier with it. Thank you so much for this video Mr. Butler! 🔥🔥🔥
So glad that you're happy with it!
This is the first i have seen of your videos, and certainly will not be the last. Great review, great side by side both inside and out. Really appreciate the work you put into it. Also liked you reviewing your own video you made of the adio while making this video. Cool reality touch.
Thanks my guy
That's what I'm shooting for with my videos. Thanks man!
Professional review, you never wasted a single moment spitting useless facts!
Btw love the reaction at 4:30
Love finding hidden gems like this video answered everything I need to know and went in great depth GG grant!
Thanks! I'm glad you appreciate the video
Thank you for this review, Grant. Really in depth and helpful
I'm glad I can help
Thank you. I'm using your link now and am excited for the results on my uploads! Great video!
Good luck!
I just bought this mic set from amazon yesterday. Watching your vid to see about the hookup. Looks very easy. I bought it to do my own CZcams videos. Cant wait to try it out this weekend. Thanks for the review.
Glad it helped!
P.S. I love your profile Pic! 🐶
It sound really good for only 25 bucks I'm impressed. With a little eq and compression it would sound great.
I haven't taken time to learn that stuff yet, but I'm sure it would help a ton!
I was there for an hour, cutting, grinding, hammering, looking for supplies in the trailer, no one came out, so I boogied 🤟
Honestly, the best microphone review I have ever seen. Excellent
Wow, thank you for such a big compliment

Thx
I just bought this and was wondering how to actually make it work, thank you so much
Make what?
Nice review! Really appreciate the in depth review
Thanks
You are thorough. Thank for this review.
No problem
Thank you for the review. Getting one through the link you provided. Thank you!
Thank you for the support!
@@GrantButler You got it! Your review was really thorough and nicely done.
@@il_Presepe that means a lot. Thank you!
Picked this up a week ago 2 mics for $15 and it came with a lightning adapter. I have the 12 pro max & 15 pro. It was a great buy
That's awesome!
Very helpful thanks!
Best explanation and convincing video, I was researching if its suitable for my outdoors recording but am contented.
Thanks a lot brother❤🙏
It'll be great outdoors, just not perfect in loud placed out doors. It'll cut out if it gets too loud some times.
Great review! Excited to use mine this weekend!
Hope it works great for you
Brilliant video! I want to test out myself now
Do it! It's so affordable it won't hurt to try it out
Thanks Grant. Live long and prosper
Thank you!
Thank you so much for doing this video I've been looking for a wireless mic for school project but don't have a large budget I've been considering buying this for a while because I didn't know if it'd be worth it but seems good by your review.
Depending on where you get them, they're hit or miss. I got lucky with this one
I purchased so fast lol. This is the exact kind of review we need for all things!!
I'm glad it helped
Amazing video review. All reviews should be done with the attention to detail and portrait of different situations in real life!
I'm glad it was so helpful
Wow! Really nice audio! I'm waiting same mic to arrive.
Hope you love it!
A couple things. I picked up the mic a few weeks ago on Amazon, and there are ways around that sound that you don’t like. One, you can put it into your shirt and it will record essentially your voice coming out of your chest. Which gives it a deeper more fuller sound. Also, that narrow sound you talk about is actually good for voice. Because essentially it’s recording mono in the center. So if you have any stereo music, it’s going to completely avoid interfering sonically with it.
What I did find with it, that I didn’t like… Is that if there are other people in the room or a TV is on for whatever reason… It will pick up every voice in the vocal spectrum. Obviously, the further away it is the less loud it is going to be… but it still picks them up. I’ve been experimenting with different volume levels for the microphone. The problem with that is, you have to make sure that it doesn’t spike the volume. Which, when you have it on Auto, it automatically picks the perfect volume. But, you run into the issue with picking up background vocals that you may or may not want to hear.
Again, that can somewhat be eliminated if you have the microphone inside your shirt. But, it’s not gonna be completely eliminated. I’m going to try some more experiments with it. Get some better software to record audio with. The one that I got, came with , the same connector you have, but it also has a lightning connector on one end and an audio connector on the other. So you can hook it directly to a camera that has an audio connector and record straight to video. Which I have not tried yet. I may try it today, just to see if the cam is any better managing the audio and also cutting out the background vocals.
Another thing that I also noticed, at least with my phone… Is that with the receiver connected to my phone… At least with the audio connector, you had to take it off the phone in order to listen to what you recorded. I don’t know if that’s going to be the same with the USB-C connector or not. But I did notice that it has a headphone jack out also on the receiver. so that may be why.
Other than that, for $20… It’s not bad. Mine came with two microphones and that connector and some extra fuzzies for the end. I just decided to buy and try it to see how good it did for the price. It’s OK, you know it’s not the best but you’re getting something that at least helpful for low price for entry level videographers. It’s amazing to me how many of these things are on the market now. It makes it really tough to choose a decent one, but because of like yours and others… You can definitely find a decent microphone for a decent price.
I know I saw one video that reviewed not only the DJI, but a few other high ends and one mid range and they liked the mid range the best. Which I think was just $120. So it’s better than $300 or more. we will see. I am just getting into this myself. I’ve had a channel forever, I just haven’t used it. Quite frankly, because I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with the channel. Because there’s so many people doing the same thing, I was looking for something different… Which I may have. We will see.
In any case, keep doing what you do and enjoy!
Thanks for this very informed & informative comment. Good luck with your channel. I'll have to check it out.
Very practical video. Thanks nicely done
Thanks!
Great video. Surprisingly good. And always great to find a fellow Baofeng radio user.
Haha I'm mostly just listen. I don't have a ham license yet
Wow. This is impressive. I'm going to order one right now. I kept thinking I'm gonna need those DJI setups for my travel vlogs. I record on my phone anyway and this wireless mic is insanely good for what I need it for. And actually I disagree that the camera has a better sound it actually sound tinny and flat. The mic actually gives a fuller sound with more bass to the voice which I really didn't expect. Thnx for this perfect test!!
If you like it, PERFECT! Everyone seems to have different feelings about their preferred sound profiles.
Yes USBC of the Mic installed in phone and even downloaded app' Open Camera" in anroid phone. Checked Setting in App and developer option is also on
Mine doesn't have an app. I think you have a different device
I had these mic's for a few days and couldn't use alh of the footage, as the mic's are clipping quite easily. Just the engine of my car was enough. The connection between the mic and the reciever is very stabil, and the soundquality is fair. I ended up sending the mic's back.
I'm sorry to hear you had a poor experience
good video and more importantly you highlight where it goes wrong.
Thanks, this is my first mic review video. I did my best to cover all the important points.
Great video. Thank you Grant!
So glad you liked it!
Just picked this up on sale for $15 on Amazon. I'm so excited! Wound up only paying $8 after using some rewards points.
Nice!
awesome video! Must be a lot of work editing this! I just bought one too for my first mic
It totally can be a lot of editing
The more u do it the better!@GrantButler
This video is so good...thanks buddy
I'm glad you appreciated it! Thanks for the kind comment!
thank you for this video. I was looking for a cheap mic to buy for my CZcams channel. have a nice day
Hope you love it! Have a great day!
Nice video. Thanks for the information
Thank you
I got it for my CZcams and it really works well the back roundnoise you can’t see even hear it
Awesome!
just subscribed this is the perfect review
I'm so happy it helped! Thank you for your support!
Sounds great!!
Yeah
thanks for your great video am now going buy this on amazon for my android phone on Sunday hi from Scotland
I hope it works great for you!
Well made video. Straight to the point! Good demo! I want to have one now! Practical tips for wearing. If you waer a blouse in stead is a t-shirt it is easier to clip them on. An other place is to clip it on your glasses. Just try!
Thanks!
Clip it onto your panties
I already got what Im looking for, but im gonna keep watching because youre just really likeable😃
Thank you!
Good review. Is there a problem, when you using a webcam with a built in microphone?
I haven't been able to get it to work with anything other than a smartphone
Perfect video thank you ❤
Happy to help
I love the audio quality
Glad to hear it 😉
It sounded great. Buying on temu
Hope it performs the same 👍
If you would, would you please answer this? This is the seventh video I’ve watch and have yet to find someone who addressed this. 😩 Were you recording the test sounds using the actual camera on your iPhone or are you using a separate app to record the audio? When I use my phone’s camera, (iPhone 14 Pro Max) my phone’s camera doesn’t pick up/switch over to the mic’s audio. Buy when I use a recording app, such as Teleprompter, the wireless mic pics up and my video’s audio is through the Amazon mic. Do you know whether or not the wireless mic works with the iPhone regular camera? If so, can you explain exactly what you did to get it to pick up? Thank you 🙏🏾 so so much for taking time out of your busy schedule to respond and help!
if its not automatically recording when you're recording a video on your iphone, there may be a setting inside the camera settings section to select a mic source or input.
ok, I assumed this, but will look again for the resolve within my phone settings. Thank you so much!@@GrantButler
So far even my new Sony XM5 earbuds are terrible with calls and voice notes. I was wondering if you can connect this to S22 Ultra or Macbook Pro , get input from it while you hear on the earbuds. Can you please give it a try? Thanks.
I can record with the mic, or listen with my headphones, but I can't do both at the same time. If you're listening the recording will be turned off; if your recording whatever you're listening to will be turned off.
Hey you did a great job on the video
Thanks
My wife just bought me a version of these. Have you managed to figure out how you can adjust the gain? Mine seems to pick up a bit more background noise than what yours did in this video.
No, it comes down to your phone's built-in software.
You should try the Pop Voice PV610+. It definitely sounds better. It doesn't have that speaking into a can sound and it's only $15 but it isn't wireless.
I'll check it out
I have a night iPhone 13 Pro Max and I had to go in to my app of the recording thing for the microphone to work so people if yours is not working be sure to go in to your recording app and turn it on record for your microphone to work
Thanks for sharing!
Can you use this with a voice amplifier if you plug in the receiver rather than using a phone. I do not need to record sound, I want to hear the sound live ?
I haven't had any luck with it working with anything other than a smart phone. I've heard for some reason it doesn't work with the new iPhone, so I wouldn't imagine it would work well with an amp
I bought a decent mini mic years ago for pc. U can plug into phone but it sits in a stand. USB plug with wire. Works with webcam.
cool
How do I turn on noise cancelation '? I pressed the button like the instructions said and got normal mode and an echo effect.
Mine doesn't have noise cancelation
One question how.many microphone can you pair at a time asking because I need 4 microphones recording ar ounce
If you want to connect multiple mics you'll have to get one that comes with multiple mics
7:30 is that a shotgun mic on the camera? it seems to be far better than i anticipated
It is the built in mic on a Canon G7X ii
can you record video and audio at the same time from a single device using it? The idea would be to use it for my phone for recording videos with better quality audio
Yes!
@@GrantButler brilliant. Thank you
Were you able to charge your phone while using the microphone to record?
Might be a go to if it can.
Yes but only at 5w
I loved your video!! I want to listen to myself live through my airpods but haven't been able. I am a singer and need it to monitorize. Do you know if it is possible? Thanks!!!
This mic will not give you that ability
@@GrantButler Ohh!! What a pitty!! Thanks for the confirmation. Any advise? Do you know how I could do it?
How can you record with phone camera and with audio from that mic in one time? I got xiaomi 12 pro, will it work? Is there any app to use it with that pocket-mic?
I use the Samsung Voice recorder app. It will only record from your phone, or from the mic, but it can't do both at the same time.
does it connect to the phone, i am in need of something like this for my hearing-deficient parent. please help!
It only works with phones. but for recording audio with your camera, or when making a voice recording. It will not work on phone calls.
Hi buddy, thanks for this video. My mic levels are too high. I tried to low the gain on my Android S22 Ultra and still the levels are hot. Do you have any idea how to fix this?
Hold the mic a little further away, and make sure it's not right in front of your mouth, but below or slightly to the side & pointing at your mouth. That can help
Can you use this mic simultaneously with music running on your mobile? Specifically , playing music and talking into it , and then send it via bluetooth to soundsystem.
are you wanting to use it as a mic to the speaker?
Awesome and informative video! I was so excited until I read it only works with lightning ports. The new iPhone uses usb-c so back to the drawing board. Any recommendations?
Mine is USB-C just order the "Android" one
@@GrantButler THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
@@GrantButler Just ordered through your link 💛 I hope there’s no compatibility issues! Thx again!
@LadyLoLinda there shouldn't be but if there is; it is Amazon and they have free returns
mine didnt work either...says I need a Aux adopter for my phone...so ill look into that...
What kind of phone do you have?
I just ordered one of these today!! I hope mine works just like ours did
Hope it's seamless
thanks bro@@GrantButler
Does it work when you have it on and you talk to someone near you will it pick up the other person's voice when you do a interview
Yes, their voice might be quieter, unless you hold the mic up to whoever is speaking, or just have it in the middle of you two it should work too
thank you for this video,
one quick question brother; can I hide it under the shirt? or it will make the sound worse?
damn, it's unavailable currently, :(
Thanks for your video. Please can this mic usb fit into Google pixel 6 phone
Yes
can we get only BLUETOOTH MIC, option to connect directly to bluetooth device with no reciever needed.
Those are available out there. I haven't tested one yet
@@GrantButler please give names except DJI MIC 2. I dont have enough money and I am struggling in my life allot in pakistan. please guide if you can
Please how far can i keep the reciever (connected to the phone) and the mic. This is important for the content i am about to make.
What's the range of MY $11 lapel mic? I wasn't able to find the limits in my yard. 30ft sounds great
I publicly confess falling on my sword for the benefit of someone else: I was on the verge of returning the two-transmitter set because I could never hear any sound on the iphone video playback....then I realized I needed to unmute the playback video 😜and POW! both lavs worked.
😅 thanks for sharing!
Great video 📹 💯
Thanks
Do you know if it's possible to split the audio when you buy the twin pack?
I'm not sure. Sorry.
Do you think this would work on the lower version of a pixel 6?
Yes
Why dosnt it work on my Huawei android phone..Im looking on Amazon and I cant seem to find it with the right input.
I don't know. HUAWEI probably designed there phone differently enough that it doesn't work for some reason.
Is there any way to monitor audio while recording?
Not that I'm aware of
Is there a way you can use this on your MacBook as well?
I'm not sure
It's keeps going back and forth..are you doing that or the phone? Outside sounds I think shut it off.
In my video the audio is going back and forth because I am doing that to demonstrate the difference & benefits. Is that what you're referring to?
Great and informative video!! I wonder if there's an adapter I could use for my fujifilm camera. I want to make drone videos, but I use my android as a monitor when flying. I looked at the DJI mic set, but it's a little pricey for me right now, and besides, I'm still in the learning stages of lavalier microphone uses.
Can you clarify what you mean by a film camera?
@@GrantButler I'm sorry, I have an older fujifilm finepix sl1000 dslr camera. I wish there was a way to used this mic set with it.
@MrNAMASTE1968 oh, I see what you mean. The only way I know these mics work is with a smart phone. What I do is record the audio on my phone then just synchronize the audio with the camera in post.
@@GrantButler good idea!
There are some on Amazon that have a triple input adapter (lightning, USB-C and 3.5mm/aux)
Where do you play back to hear the audio. It’s connected but I hear nothing
how are you recording the audio?
can this microphone conected with cameras (dslr for example)??
It does not work with mine
ty great video
Thanks!
its possible if i connecting with 2-microphone ? into 1-phone recorder
Yes, you just need one that comes with 2 mics
do you have to keep the music on while testing the microphone tho
DUDE! You're so right! It was a totally noob mistake. I'm sorry man.
Tip either tun on otg or developer options to use on updated phones
What does that do?
@@GrantButler my phone didn't work with it until I turned the otg on. ( on the go settings ) sometimes it's in the developer options
@@Simon.0000 interesting, what phone do you have?
@@GrantButler it's a ouktel c1 from China
@Simon.0000 thanks that'll be helpful for some people.
Amazingly good 👍
Thanks
Could you use this for a camera?a cannon for example?
I haven't had any luck with that
can my phone charge while that is plug in? I need to live stream on zoom.
Yes! However it will only charge at 5w so it will likely only slow the drain of your phone battery if you're doing something taxing on your phone like live streaming
I want to get this! 😊
Go for it
I did..ordered 😉
