Sound quality is good and the ability of two people to talk and sound clear is a bonus. They are great for vlogging or streaming and work on different devices. Pricey but worth it, and there's an option to buy just one mic, not two.

I didn't find the sound quality very good when trying to use it with my Nikon camera. I recorded sound but had trouble getting the volume right. When I used it with my PC on video calls, I got better results. I think I'm part of the problem and will stick with this set and adjust my rating in the future as I've practiced it better.

great set of mics that are very easy to set up, clear and have a long range. The little box comes with two microphones, a receiver, a charging cable, a 3.5mm adapter cable, a small mono microphone and instructions. It's easy to charge everything up (they all came with a decent charge) and then plug the receiver into whatever device you're recording with. The receiver connects directly to an iPhone, any USB-C compatible device, or a 3.5mm stereo jack. Two mics mean you can have a backup (if needed) or record two people at once. You could even use one for a music overlay when only one person is speaking. I've used mine for stereo bird shots when filming them with a telephoto lens and it really adds to the atmosphere. Super long battery life (26 hours is probably achievable, the amount of time I've been using it) and the distance is incredible. It would be difficult to need more distance if you need to video what you are recording the sound for. No lag that I can detect, so everything is in sync. Also a good elimination of background noise. You can hear the sound from the microphone. Microphone mute controls are included, and the small microphone easily clips to your clothing. Great price for something that "just works" without fiddling around.

The K&F Concept wireless lavalier kit I reviewed consists of 2 plastic rectangular microphone transmitters, a multi-device receiver, mono headphones, a 3.5mm stereo extension cable, a carrying case, and a USB-C charging cable. The mics have a clip on the back for attaching to clothing, but due to their size and weight, I've found them to pull out my shirt pocket when clipped onto it. Remedy is easy, clip it to the inside of the bag instead. The actual microphone itself is on the top of the device, and inside is a sponge to reduce wind noise. The microphones have the Power On and Mute buttons on one side, a USB-C charging socket on the other side and status LEDs on the front. The receiver has a 3.5mm jack on top for connecting to a computer or camera and a Lightning connector on one side and a USB-C connector on the other for mobile phone use. There's also a 3.5mm headphone socket and a USB-C socket on the bottom, the latter of which is used to charge the receiver, but it can also be used to charge a mobile phone if one is connected. I should point out that there is no “Audio over USB” connection from this jack. On the top of the receiver is a power switch and a small LED that glows red when charging, turns off when fully charged, and glows green when connected to a microphone. When the receiver is connected to a mobile phone, the sound from the phone is disabled. However, audio can be monitored via the headphone jack on the bottom of the unit and the power button double-clicks to select one of three audio output levels. The number of beeps audible corresponds to the selected output level, with one being the lowest. Despite the fact that there are 2 microphones, everything is in mono. If you plug stereo earphones into the receiver, the audio will still be heard in mono, as will the recorded audio, whether you're using your phone's USB port or a jack on your computer. I found the sound quality to be very good, it's clear there's no noticeable background hiss unless you turn up the gain in the recording app and the recessed position of the mic and the use of foam material should reduce wind noise, although I did haven't tested that yet. The product is described as having 26 hours of battery life, although I wonder if the receiver will have the same stamina when plugged in just via the 3.5mm jack. The advertised audio lag is low at 15ms and I had no issues with lip syncing when running a simple selfie video test with my phone. The specified wireless transmission distance is around 120m, which is very good. The only downside of this product is the high price, but it is a quality product.

Really solid starter set of lavalier mics I say as a starter set as I've opted for the dual mic base which frankly is ideal as there are more reputable brands but with high prices these sometimes under-cost at the time of writing £70 which is a steal. These have really nice clear sound recorded without any real interference like picking up background noise, work wonders and are very easy to connect to multiple devices should your use require it. The mics have an insane range and to be honest that's what shocked me the most as some struggle to do what these little things are capable of, all with decent battery life. Overall solid and I'm impressed would recommend but depending on desired usage you may upgrade in the future.

These are very easy to use microphones. Useful for video conferencing/presentations, vloggers, etc. NOTE: This doesn't work with my Android phone (Galaxy J6) and the instructions warns about this: “*****Some Android phones have incompatibility issues due to the operating system. Please contact your dealer ***** for more information. They work really well with my Chromebook, which is what I need them for, but if you plan to use them outside on a tripod etc, you'll want them to work with your Android phone. I only have the means to test this with the Type-C receiver, but there is also a flash and a 3.5mm receiver, so for Apple devices and digital cameras. The receiver connects via Bluetooth and requires no software, it's plug and play. The transmission works over the distance and is uninterrupted once I've played the video. I am very happy with the sound quality, build quality and accessories. They are compact, about 2.5 cm tall, light and are securely fastened with a strong clip. Two mics in this pack seem reasonable for the £65 price point. The only negative I can find is that it doesn't work with "all" Android phones. I really don't know how you would know if it would work with your phone without trying it

Pros: 1- The sound quality of the microphone is good and works well for streaming and presentations. I use it to record my lessons and the audio is no problem at all. 2- The microphone contained a 3-in-1 receiver. This is unique and would work with different devices. I personally use it with T-devices and it worked fine with no issues. 3- It has a wireless transmission function of 120 meters. This is really good for placing your device away from you. However, I do not recommend placing your device in a different room or between many barriers (or walls) as this can degrade the sound quality and cause interruptions. 4- I had no problems with battery life. It lasted the entire 3 hours of recording without any breaks. And could last up to 26 hours. 5- The price is reasonable for 2 PCs. Cons: 1- The sound canceling feature is acceptable. However, it is not the same as professional microphones. 2- The microphone is a bit big to be plugged in. However, this depends on your preferences.

Great for vlogging and making training videos for my job. These are bulkier than my previous pair but really work a lot better. They can be connected to many different devices and come with all the cable connectors you need. They pair automatically and you can mute each mic for more versatility. The sound quality is really clear.

Well packaged device with fully protective foam to ensure very good quality. The item felt very well built, everything connected straight away with no extra steps. The device worked immediately when connected to both my MAC (as shown in the video) and iPhone. It was also connected to PC via USB port or MIC jack, either way it works fine. The audio quality is very good, maybe it can be a bit better, but so far very good. The receiver of this product comes with a rechargeable USB battery, which is great for mobile recording. In addition, both microphones can be easily connected to the receiver. The receiver also has a new feature and comes with an earphone that can be used to monitor what has been recorded by the MIC. This is handy for knowing how far you can go on the field and making sure you don't lose sound anywhere. One wish I would have would be to keep the device in a rechargeable compartment would work wonders for me. The device was one of the best I have ever worked with and I would definitely recommend it. Thanks

My partner and I recently started a YouTube channel and we're amazed at how many other content creators have really bad audio quality in their videos. Not wanting to join them, we decided to try these mics and here's our take. Connecting the receiver to the iPhone was a breeze. Just plug it in and start recording. We tried testing it with just the Apple Voice Recorder app already installed, and that worked fine. The mics are well designed and have a clip on the back that is strong enough to clip to a shirt, sweater, etc. There is a button to mute yourself, which is very useful. I went to another room in the house where I could hear my partner and the system picked up my voice clearly with no discernible lag. When they were side by side there was no interference from the individual microphones. Speaking simultaneously resulted in clear sound quality with both voices easily understood. The finished audio quality is adequate rather than stunning, but for what we intend to use them for, like podcasts, interviews, and general chatter, they'll be good enough to get our channel up and running. Charging is easy and quick, so we'll likely keep them as a backup for when we can afford serious mics in the near future. Overall a good product that's of a high enough standard for podcasts and the like, so I'll give them four out of five. I hope you found this review helpful.
