Wireless lavalier microphone for 700 rubles and what's wrong with it

  • Aug 16, 2022

Wireless buttonholes have always been expensive, and even now models of famous brands can cost 5 or 15 and 30 thousand rubles, while Aliexpress has a lot of digital radio buttonholes at very low prices. I bought one and studied it.

Wireless lavalier microphone for 700 rubles and what's wrong with it

This microphone is now only 695 rubles (in the same lot there are microphones connected to the Type C or Lightning smartphone connector even cheaper). AT another lot the same seller it is a little more expensive, but there are a lot of reviews.

There is no brand name, the instructions say "K35".

The microphone comes without a box, the package contains the transmitter microphone itself, a receiver, a USB-Type C charging cable and instructions in English and Chinese.

To turn it on, you need to press and hold the buttons on the microphone and on the receiver. As long as only one thing is turned on (receiver or transmitter), the LED on it will change color from green to red. As soon as both devices turn on and establish communication with each other, the LEDs will turn green.

The receiver is equipped with a 3.5 mm 4 pin connector, so it is only suitable for connecting to a smartphone. To connect it to a camera or anything else, you will need a 4 pin - 3 pin adapter.

The microphone works confidently at a distance of about 20 meters from the receiver. According to the seller, the charge should be enough for 5 hours of work, in fact, the microphone works for about three hours.

The sound of the microphone is expectedly so-so, but I think it will suit many people. Unfortunately there is a constant high-frequency background. It is not very loud, it may not be heard when playing through a smartphone speaker or small speakers, but on good equipment the background is noticeable and annoying. Probably you can try to get rid of it in the video editor using noise reduction plugins. You can listen to the sound from this microphone and the background in my video.

I will continue to use wired buttonholes, but I will return this one to the seller, since there is such an opportunity.

Peace for everyone!
