In this video we test the brand new Hohem Wireless Lavalier Microphone System in extreme conditions. Everything you can hear in this video has been shot on the iPhone 15 Pro and the Hohem Mic 01. Comment below how you like the audio quality - I think it's amazing!
I have also been really surprised by the built in features such as the active noise cancelling - this has been working extremely fine! The reverb mode is fun, but probably not for me ;)
In the end the only thing that matters is the sound quality and that is amazing!

Awesome review. Are you based in Austria? 🙂

[@WillNewcomb]

Sounds really good. Features very similar to my Fulaim X5 which I use on my iPhone 12pm. But I think the Hohem gives a richer sound! Hand held is definitely better than on your jacket, just like my Fulaim. And the Hohem is cheaper!

BRO, I've come to hear that zhyiun gimbals dies before 5-6 years... would you please tell me how is your experience with Zhyiun smooth Q4 ? take love from Bangladesh ❤❤

I just bought these 2 weeks ago and I did a review. My recorded audio "my voice" sounds harsh and not warm or soft clean audio. I don't know if it's my audio gain or what. Any recommendations? Thanks

[@mauriciovideos]

Nice

Thanks

Does this microphone work for the Samsung S23? Thank you!  Does this microphone work for the Samsung S23? Thank you!

100% does work

[@IMZMOTORS]

Are two transmitters recording in stereo mode?

[@PeterAlanJohnson]

Nope. The receivers pan both mics centrally- fine for a quick video, but rubbish for anything you plan to edit. Sadly this seems to be common to most budget mics. (At least you can use the onboard recordings to do that. ) Sound quality for me was just OK, not as good as my Rode WG2s, albeit much cheaper. It sounds better here than on my tests- and it sounded rather gated to me.

Tanks for the video. Can’t wait to see a complete wireless microphone for iPhone 15 pro and pro max. Sorry but usb-c is for the SSD 😉

[@smartphonefilmmakingpro]

Well, that's gonna take some time I guess ;)

[@andreaturbolz3542]

@@smartphonefilmmakingpro Not too long. Dji Mic 2 does it via Bluetooth. At the moment it’s not available….will be next summer I think

[@pdcorlis]

We either need a reliable USB-C hub or a Bluetooth connection. I’m voting for Bluetooth. Or… how about a cage/case that connects USB-C and acts as a hub as well?

[@andreaturbolz3542]

@@pdcorlis I vote for this 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@PeterAlanJohnson]

The receiver does have a USB-C port, but I assume that is for power-in only- probably need a hub

[@IMZMOTORS]

Friend, hohem mic or boyalink?

[@smartphonefilmmakingpro]

Both are great, what you prefer

[@ekremersoy635]

Compatible with Samsung S23 Ultra?

[@smartphonefilmmakingpro]

sure!

[@ekremersoy635]

@@smartphonefilmmakingpro thank you

[@grahamjones7070]

Is it compatible with the DJI Osmo Action 4 & DJI Pocket 3?

[@smartphonefilmmakingpro]

i don‘t know to be honest, does it habe a usb-c connector?

[@grahamjones7070]

@@smartphonefilmmakingpro Yes..usb-c.

[@WillNewcomb]

WRONG! There are many rival wireless lavs at a similar price. You're not limited to the expensive DJI or Rode Go 2. The audio is pretty good being held directly in front of your mouth. My Fulaim X5 is the same. But the Hohem will have problems with thicker cases and is not iphone/android compatible. It's either or. Rivals are not divided like that. And that dreadful reverb is useless. I think my Fulaim X5 noise reduction is at least as good, if not better. Glad that you used its audio throughout. Too many reviewers leave it to the very end or don't even have any samples!

[@smartphonefilmmakingpro]

thanks for your insights! Appreciate it - I have been using it with a case and didn't have any issues.

[@doel89]

how it compare to fulaim x5/ neewer cm28?

[@gayshrink3190]

There's nothing that drives me more crazy than a reviewer using a clip-on mic improperly. Put the f&(^*^(g thing where it belongs. It's not a handheld.

[@smartphonefilmmakingpro]

feel ya! haha I made an entire video adressing that topic, I hate it too

[@zeenuf00]

I'm following the exact directions to lower the input gain on this thing and it's not working. Input gain is over-driven. Another piece of chinese garbage.

[@smartphonefilmmakingpro]

Sorry to hear that! Also check the input from your phone, maybe that is boosting it up like crazy.. what I found in hundreds od workshops is that mostly its human error
