Zhuosheng wireless lavalier microphone is finally here the right product for me.
First of all, the first big news: It's plug and play.
Insert the jack into the phone and you can use the microphone freely, without having to rack your brains with adapters, third-party apps (with their usually very low-quality videos) or other such gimmicks. Plug in, turn on, record.
Another excellent thing is the possibility of hook up the receiver behind the phone, which makes this wireless microphone a product specifically designed for cell phones. Ditto for the issue earphones: audio feedback is given in real time and is provided by the receiver's internal processor. This way you have two advantages: firstly it does not strain the cell phone further, secondly it is cleaner and there is less delay than an additional pass on the mobile phone.
The materials are of excellent workmanship, metallic and not plastic, and I also appreciated the clamp that serves to fix the receiver to the phone case: it extends in such a way that it can also cover a phablet or a phone with a cover.
Let's talk about usability: as you can see in the video, it works immediately with the Xiaomi stock app (I use a My Note 10), who is notoriously allergic to external microphones. I even tried it on a friend's iPhone X and it worked great.
I would like to point out a small detail: in the bag that comes with the package there is already a shaped compartment for insert another receiver. This means that, hypothetically speaking, you could buy a second receiver and have two microphones.
Finally, you may ask yourselves: It works on the camera? The answer is yes in this case too. Although I do not recommend it, because it is not very convenient to attach the receiver to the reflex. However, for emergency situations or near a tripod, the solution is certainly effective and functional.
This receiver could also be ideal for attaching a handheld microphone, for example, in the case of interviews or conferences.
So, if you’re wondering whether or not it’s worth spending a lot of money on a cell phone microphone like this, my answer is a resounding yes. You will thank every penny you spent.
