How to be seen & not heard by the Oleciya Wireless Microphone for iPhone (Review)

The Oleciya Wireless Microphone is a kit that includes a receiver that plugs into your iPhone / iPad and two lapel microphone transmitters that allow you to record from far away. This brief review summarizes my experience. I include recordings that demonstrate their range, clarity, and sensitivity so you can make your own judgement. I also disassemble one of the microphones to see what's inside.
Full disclosure: I received this wireless microphone from Amazon to evaluate at no cost to me. I submitted my review (which wasn't favourable) which is now public.

Amazing aerospace tech! Now I know how they did those radio transmissions from the Moon in the 1960's!

Unfortunately for Kirk, using this device to communicate his dire situation to the U.S.S. Enterprise ended very badly.

Was assembled on a Friday or Saturday in the late PM ? Reminds me of an older style cassette tape recorder microphone. They had awful quality too. Of course they came with a jack that let you use your own microphone in place of the built in one. This one looks like the popular Lavalier wireless mike and may be just a cheap knock off. Buyrer beware on all.

I think you nailed it. I knew it wouldn’t rival more expensive units but I didn’t realize it wouldn’t rival a 1970s children’s 100mW 4-transistor Walkie-Talkie.

Matt! We’re stronger with your microphone than without it! A simpler time indeed when we only had to worry about planet-eating Doomsday Machines roaming the galaxy!😊

[@Mr.BrownsBasement]

That’s not a planet-eating doomsday machine. It’s a highly mutated General Foods Bugles corn snack. Instead of idly sitting in a bowl by the TV ready to be munched upon, the snack roams the galaxy eating TV watchers of the 24th century.

@@Mr.BrownsBasement Mmmm. You may have something there. But, Bugles (the original) would always fit comfortably on fingers. I can't see this "bugle" doing so. Of course, I'd ask Senor Spock. But, I understand that he always bluffs.

@@123QuoFan Perhaps it’s my weakened state but this discussion makes me think of a Club Sandwich.

Yea those sure are pretty junky.
