PoP Voice 2Pcs Professional Lavalier Lapel Microphone 3.5mm Compatible With DJI Mic/Rode Wireless GO Transmitters for Smartphone Camera, Mini Mic for YouTube, Interview, Video, Broadcasters

For the money this is an extremely useful and nice mic. There's a few expectations that need to be set, first that the frequency range it's picking up is limited. So for the voice or my guitar it's pretty crisp and clear and that translates well out of phone speakers. If I try to pick up bass frequencies it doesn't do very well. Second, the power it needs is easily provided by a phone or computer but it can't be easily powered through an interface or mixer. Phantom power will blow it up and no power will be completely silent.That being said, it's a night and day difference compared to any phones internal mic. It's perfectly acceptable quality even for a singer songwriting posting simple videos. It's not hifi. But it's not lofi either and it doesn't have any weird buzziness or ground noises or anything. For $10 it's a must have for anyone who ever uses their phone to capture audio.For a songwriter I really recommend it because if you want to get a good sound without one you need to get very close to your phone when recording. With this I clip it to my shirt and it captures both my guitar and voice at a nice level and I can actually sit back from the camera and relax a bit.

I recently decided to try out the PoP voice Lavalier Lapel Microphone, and I'm really happy with it. A lot of customer reviews rave about its value for the price, and I have to agree.First off, the mic comes neatly packaged and is super easy to clip onto your clothing. Customers often mention how versatile it is—picking up sound from all directions and capturing clear audio. It really does deliver audio quality that’s comparable to some of the higher-end professional mics, which is impressive for something in this price range.The build feels solid, and the included windscreen does a great job of cutting down on wind noise. The long cable is another highlight; at about 6 feet, it gives you plenty of freedom to move around while recording.Overall, based on other reviews and my own experience, this mic is a fantastic deal. It’s become a staple for my recording setup and offers great performance without breaking the bank. If you’re looking for a reliable, budget-friendly lavalier mic, the PoP voice is definitely worth considering!

My motivation for purchasing the Professional #1 Best Lavalier Lapel Microphone is predominantly to capture quality sound to go along with the videos I shoot. Initially and in part due to the low cost of the product my expectations were not immediately high, but I felt that I had nothing to lose especially since my DSLR camera is not capable of capturing usable audio.My expectations for this product were for it to be physically lightweight, quick and easy to use and set up, and to be able to capture decent audio and function properly for on camera interviews. I already knew my IPhone6 recorded great audio if placed in the right spot, but in order to step my game up professionally I wanted the option of using a lavaliere microphone for interviews. I wanted something cheap but to still be able to give me quality sound similar to my IPhone6.I purchased this microphone about four months ago and have unfortunately only been able to use it a handful of times due to my busy schedule. However, in the instances that I have used it, majority of the time it has proven to function properly. The matte black cable and lapel clip provide a way to easily hide the technology when using it. The Omnidirectional Condenser microphone that is attached to the 59” (1.5m) cable is just as compact as a standard pair of Apple headphones, while also fitting the 3.5mm headphone jack that is universal for most smart devices.I do not recall receiving any directions accompanying the product, but the set up and usage was fairly easy to interpret. In my experience with the product I used an app with which to record and store my audio that was previously installed on my IPhone6 called, “voice memo.” Once this app was opened I inserted the cable into the jack as if they were headphones and then hit record. I instantly could see the sound being picked up thus indicating its initial functionality.This product seems to work effectively and most efficiently when paired with a mobile phone. I tried once to connect it to my Macbook Pro laptop but it did not show it was recording anything. My assumption is that there is a setting that needs to be changed in the preferences of my laptop in order to tell the computer to use the jack for recording audio and not listening. If you do not have a program for recording sound already open this may cause difficulties in functionality as well.There were two instances when the microphone simply did not record sound while being plugged in to my mobile phone. This was a concern of mine because when you are in the field and on the go there is no time for your audio recorder to not work. One option for temporarily fixing this problem is by unplugging the cable and then plugging it in again. This product is just one way to combine a cheap price with professionally capable equipment.Recording sound is the purpose for this product and in the few times I have tested it out I have paid special attention to background noise pick up and its sensitivity ranges. These are important aspects to think about because once the audio is captured there is only so much you can do in postproduction to correct it. I have attached audio files demonstrating voice and sound captured with the microphone and also without it (using my cell phone’s built-in microphone).You can hear the recordings by copy and pasting my Soundcloud link, see audio tracks 1 and 2 to compare close sensitivity, track 2 has the tendency to capture too much audio at once while track one uses the windscreen on the lapel microphone. See audio tracks 3 and 4 to compare the distance sensitivity. You can especially notice the difference in background noise and clarity of my voice. The final two clips measure pitch, the low rumble of cars 30 feet away from me and the sharp sound of clanking keys.I have not tried out any other cheap microphones besides the built in one from my mobile phone and the built in one on my DSLR camera. Out of these options the omnidirectional condenser microphone and my mobile phones built in microphone, I’d say that they are similar in sensitivity range and sound pick up. The downfall to using your mobile phone is that visually it is unprofessional. This product is essentially a professional extension to the audio recorder you have in your smart device.Overall I like this product and recommend it as a quick alternative to capturing audio. This product appeals to audiences interested in technology, videography and sound recording. With today’s technology each individual can capture quality audio recording from his or her smart phone or device. The situations where this microphone would work best would be for interview recording, vocal recording or for capturing sound in difficult or hard to reach places. For people who do not have an audio jack built in to their camera body this cheap product serves as a great alternative to professionally capturing quality audio.Audio 1: Saying the ABCs using lapel microphone clipped on left lapel 5 inches down from chin.In this audio file I clipped the microphone 5-6 inches down from my chin onto my lapel or collard shirt. I spoke in the direction forward of me and did not move my head to either side while speaking.Audio 2: Saying the ABCs with built in mobile phone microphone on the left lapel 5 inches down from chin.In this audio file I held my mobile phone in the same position as the lapel microphone and spoke with the same criteria. In cases where a person has a relatively high shirt pocket a phone can be used to capture audio from there as well.Audio 3: Saying the ABCs 6-10 feet away with lapel microphone.You can tell the slight difference in the clarity of my voice and footsteps when using the lapel microphone.Audio 4: Saying the ABCs 6-10 feet away using mobile phone built in microphone.The audio recording without the microphone captures more static tends to draw an echo from where I was standing (Potentially can depend on environment settings).Audio 5: Cars driving by, slight rain, approximately 30 feet away and using a lapel microphone.In this audio file I was standing at a far distance from the street as cars passed by and rain drizzled down.Audio 6: Car keys jiggling 6 inches above lapel microphone.In this audio file I got closer to the microphone to see how it would pick up a higher pitch generated jiggling my car keys.Link to hear audio![...]

My daughter loved this product. It works clearly with very little hassle. We ordered one of the more fancy ones first and it was a total flop. But this product worked great with better microphone quality.

It works and generally sounds ok. The TRS / TRRS adapters are helpful. Build quality is good. Nice carrying pouch. Extra pop filters. 3-stars because preamp puts out a low signal. In sound settings you must turn boost to max (+30db), then crank the volume to 80 or 90%. Then in your app like Discord, crank the mic volume up to 100%. All this so your friends can hear you. Fix the preamp and you will have the best lapel mic period!Ciao!

A friend recommended it after using it for video interviews. Sound quality was a plus.Why did you pick this product vs others?:I've owned this lavalier microphone for a couple of years now, and it has performed flawlessly without any issues or background noise. The sound quality is fantastic, and I highly recommend it for recording. It's so affordable that I plan on buying a second one as a backup. If you're considering it, don't hesitate, it sounds great!
