I love Rode. At the same time, hollyland lark m2 has an option to get all ports included in on affordable package, the usb-c has an additional port for charging, and the camera receiver has an analog and a usb-c port.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Yeah true. I guess some people truly only need a USB-C or Lighting option though.

[@jonbikaku6133]

What about audio quality? Can we get a comparison vid or anyone who has tried both?

[@OneStopGuy]

Every mic should be as simple as this one. Great product and great review :)

[@crumpetsbuttered]

Just got these a week ago and its important to mention that they also connect directly to Rode Connect Software on your computer, and connect to Rode Central. Just plug an play using USB-C

[@ShervinShares]

No link to purchase yet?! I WANT

[@mrdbourke]

Love your videos dude!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

We will update as soon as RODE gives us a link!

[@Buffett305]

Does this work with the Iphone's native camera app or do you have to download a thrid party camera app to use an external mic?

[@LiveProductionTips]

Love Rode's sound But so far nothing beats Lark M2 when it comes to both size and sound quality. Rode needs to make them a little smaller

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Those lark M2’s are crazy small!!!

[@Rufio1975]

Why does it say "Frequently returned time on Amazon" if they are so good?

[@LiveProductionTips]

@@Rufio1975 Not sure but you can read reviews and see. I love mines

[@MrDominicBrant]

@@Rufio1975 that's just cheap skate creators. they get equipment for shoots, travel and shows and just return it. it's a common thing with creators. it's also a common thing with video people. they get a gig, use the kit, and send it back. half the fashion bloggers do similar things. and you don't think all those creators ACTUALLY own all those fast cars.

[@TheEclectic]

How does it compare to the Wireless Go 2?

[@gkanai1400]

Rode has good products. Good support. I do wish this had an analog audio monitoring port.

[@DeeDee-XO]

How do you use a tripod with it when filming vertically from an iPhone?

[@JustinBeausoleil]

Will the micro mic pair with the Wireless Go II Receiver?

[@LeCarroReynolds]

Can you use it with action cameras?

[@MrDominicBrant]

if your running sound separately then yes, of course. you just use the phone as the sound storage device. But if you mean on-camera sound, then no - as far as I understand. You'll need to go to the next level up. I use old rodes that plug into my Canon - and the rig works perfectly

[@anthonygadd295]

Is the audio edited for this video mate or straight out?

[@robbierobbins2938]

I have been watching reviews looking to get a microphone just to note the lark m2 is $110 USD for the combo version and $90 for individual lightning or usb-C for black Friday. I am so on the fence about either one I may just purchase both. If I had one I am leaning lark because of the $90 price point. Great review

[@stephan85]

do you need both mic`s for stereo?

[@BrokerMartin]

I wonder if you guys can assist with tricky question. When you do a Tiktok live you can do it with other creators. So lets go for 2 people chatting. So if you are live on phone and plug in a USB microphone your automatically loose audio because phone thinks its headphones. What setup can improve tiktok live sound while still hearing other peoples audio.

[@travelwithadeel]

I am happy with my all round Lark M2 mic

[@RibkaMatthew]

Is there link to purchase? Thanks

[@ThinkMediaTV]

We will update as soon as RODE provides us with a link!

[@MyUncleDanny1]

Does anyone know when the KZbin create app will be dropped for iOS? They said sometime this year

[@Ozpeter]

I bet it would work with the Dji Pocket 3 connected to its USB input... (it does according to other reviews).

[@GaryV-p3h]

Would be nice if you could get a set with one of each colour so you could pick with one best fitted with the clothing or situation, off camera wouldn't matter.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

That is a great thought

[@chrisclampart]

Thanks for the review! I am literally in the market for a new mobile microphone, so perfect timing.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Great to hear!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Awesome! Hope it helps you out!

[@yogainthehousewithcheryl1524]

Van it be used with Android? What about laptop? My older Rode witeless required an extra cable to connect to my phone.

[@floatingbonestaichi]

As I have a noisy studio environment, the noise canceling capability is important... Any impressions about this for this microphone? What about latency? I have been thinking about an upgrade and this might be a good choice... If it's 150 $ or €, I can handle that...

[@FaviMarti]

I like rode and have their original wireless mic from years ago and the shotgun pro mic (don’t remember what it’s called). That said I like the quality of the sound out of my neewer lav mics that I paid 90 bucks for. I do like the case on these. If I needed a second set of two lav mics I might do this, but for my phone I’d be interested in a Dji mic 2 before this. It’s 99 dollars for a transmitter, but connects to your phone via Bluetooth. Not a bad product overall, but I don’t really see any advantage to having it over the neewer.

[@koenignero]

Does the mic goes to standby if I stop recording on the phone?

[@Squiddys]

is this the sucesor to the wireless pro?

[@ThinkMediaTV]

No, just a brand new different product from RODE. The smallest wireless mic they have ever made!

[@Squiddys]

@@ThinkMediaTV thanks! the price point is amazing for tik tockers/shorts creators who are using their phone

[@LucekV12]

Hollyland Lark all the way

[@ThinkMediaTV]

They did good for sure!

[@trippontwowheels]

Where is the link to purchase? You forgot to include it.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

We will update as soon as RODE provides us with a link!

[@tammydavid]

Can this work with the Osmo Pocket 3?

[@HustLHERR]

I'm curious to know how it would sound in a more nosier environment such as a gym.

[@jbsworkshop]

Looking at options between this & the wireless pro? What’s best for sound?

[@mokkandy]

this is not comparable with wireless pro. this is just for iphone creators

[@jbsworkshop]

@ I mainly use my iPhone for my content but I’m thinking I am better off spending a bit more for the pro set-up with lav’s etc

[@bradleyseelal1885]

You’re paying for Quality + Branding; but the Hollyland M2 or even other budget friendly ones might be wiser for smaller creators

[@ThinkMediaTV]

True, it all depends on your needs and budget!

[@bradleyseelal1885]

It’s based on audience too because Rode would target those in a certain bracket - or even pull some to spend extra for the sake of getting the Rode quality

[@uncanny15]

Does it work with DJI Pocket 3.

[@masterwatch]

it has Gain Assist though ?

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Yes, auto gain assist technology to adjust levels depending on your sound environment

[@masterwatch]

@@ThinkMediaTV ok 👍🏻

[@emanuelpaigejr.6354]

Awesome!!! 2:48 in, when’s this drop? *I know, I know, probably at the end. Thanks for sharing this, been looking for one that can go with my phone….

[@emanuelpaigejr.6354]

Update: 7:15 mark price point given. Thank you again guys!!!!

[@emanuelpaigejr.6354]

*Saved! For when the link does go live.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

We will update as soon as RODE provides us with a link!

[@mikeishat]

I NEED THESE NOW!!!!

[@ninofabia6088]

Phone exclusive? Can't you connect this with your camera? Pls do a comparison with ulanzi a30 and DJI mic mini in the future. Thanks

[@jeremyn277]

So if I wanted to run this with both my camera and iPhone 14 they’re basically forcing me to choose something else. Solid. I’ll stick with DJI. Rode could’ve developed an interchangeable USB attachment to switch between USB C and lightning

The audio is not clean 😢 the question is you can edit stuff and hear the audio even with the receiver connected to your phone?

[@HiFiInsider]

i need this for my YT channel!

[@dvlaserworks]

I bought the 2 Pack Wireless Mini Lavalier Lapel Microphone...very budget...VERY good! I would like to get into the RODE ecosystem eventually. This has my attention!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

You would love this!

[@dvlaserworks]

@@ThinkMediaTV I am sure I will! I Love the one I bought...VERY clear. The RODE should definitely put it to shame!

[@NesianMoto]

Do you know if this will work with GoPros? Specifically the Hero 8?

[@travelwithadeel]

GoPro needs wired receivers

[@NesianMoto]

@@travelwithadeelthanks!

[@alexandreouya9072]

Great video test! Thank you very much that will help a lot. ;o)

[@piggybankaccountant]

Did they make a version for USB C and ANOTHER lightning? Cant swap the thing?! What is this?!?!

[@idrisivlogs880]

I purchase in india how.?

[@serranosmobile]

Dji mic 2 for the win

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Also a great mic system

[@maxwalter6265]

I personally feel the DJI mic 2 is still the better choice

[@alonedoughnut]

I can't wait to see people on TikTok holding the transmitter

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Hahaha true

[@vinzaputra]

So no 32bit?

[@ThinkMediaTV]

No

[@PeterAlanJohnson]

One massive difference between this and the Hollyland M2, which few reviewers seem to pick up on, is that the latter doesnt do 2-channel audio to the USB C or Lightning adaptors, which is a potential issue (you can only do it through the analog socket on their camera adaptor). (I have an M2 system, as well as a pair of Rode Wireless Go 2s)) The Wireless Micro lets you split those channels

[@LedZippo99]

its basically a 'Rode wireless ME'... but missing the 3.5 jack and smaller..

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Yes very similar. Comes with 2 transmitters as well.

[@adiariomx]

Dammed... I just bought a couple pair of Hollyland M2s

[@ThinkMediaTV]

That is also a dope mic

[@DrL33productions]

I think it will be really stupid if Rode or DJI don't release a device to have these connect to a Mirrorless or DSLR cameras like the Hollyland M2.

[@iamyolandamoore]

How much is it? A fafillion dollars???

[@ThinkMediaTV]

$150

[@DANNYBLVCK]

Paying for the name. Dji mic 2 is 99 and it’s mobile mics worth $2. I have tons of ride products but rode really $100 bucks for phone mic. Get your money rode

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Well it is 2 mics with a receiver as well, the $99 DJI Mic 2 is just the mic (granted it does have internal memory you can record to).

[@DANNYBLVCK]

@@ThinkMediaTV understandable

[@rakohasan]

Finally rode copies dji😁

[@ThinkMediaTV]

hahah

[@SaralPathBarta]

Not option mobile charger port. 👎

[@chungtran7563]

😮yes 💓♥️💕💖💖💖💖💖💖👨👍

[@agambhasin]

Again…its a mobile mic for 149 bucks…no thanks

[@sarfios]

Get a job bro, at this point it’s just sad

[@Bogdan-Xaine]

Its good for singing and distance! Your phone mic will not sound good if is 10m away

[@agambhasin]

@ Singing? On a lav mic? Good luck to you
