Saramonic Wireless Lavalier Microphone for Smartphone Camera 492ft Range 20h Battery Life
SKU: GW53.0105
Great value for 2 mics+ receiver with long battery life at this price point. I am entry level with video creation and trying to run ads for my business—I really liked how easy it was to setup, configure and provides clear audio quality. The magnets are very strong too. I found that mounting the mic inside my shirt (+ wind screen) with the square magnet piece on the outside provided a great sound and keeps the mic very low profile—can barely tell it’s there.

She has tried a number of mics and finally found happiness with this little rig! Clear sound, batteries seem to outlast all of her shoots. Good price!

I was looking for an affordable wireless microphone system and decided to give the Sarmonic model a try based on its price. To my surprise, I found it to be well-built and packed with useful accessories. I use a Samsung phone that requires a USB-C connection, which this model obviously has.
Right away, I was impressed by the strong transceiver magnet and clip—much more secure than other brands I've tried, so I don't have to worry about the mic falling off. The carrying case is also a smart feature, doubling as a charger for the transceivers and receiver, which means no need for separate charging.
Pairing was a breeze after watching Sarmonic’s quick start video online. The sound quality is comparable to higher-end brands, and honestly, unless you’re a sound engineer, you probably won’t notice much of a difference. I've included a quick unboxing video for those interested in seeing what’s inside the box, along with measurements and weights. Overall, I’m very pleased with this purchase and excited to start using it!

These Saramonic Blink500B2+ are perfect for what I want in sound quality and size. I use these on my youtube 520revsbowling during my league and tournament. The magnets are very strong to connect to your shirt. Connecting to my android is flawless and automatic. Very portable and the black appearance is sleek. Awesome quality. Love the small wind bonnets for the mics too.

This mic took my videos to a level I didn't know was possible. I'm not sure how I allowed my self to record with my iPhone mic or my pc mic. The best part is not being stuck to one place in order to be heard. Instead I can walk where ever I like as close or as far from the camera as I like and I'm still heard the exact same way since it's wireless.
I was a bit intimidated by all the stuff that came with it thinking it would be tough to figure out but It was SOO EASY to setup on my DSLR and even easier for my phone. It's literally plug and play, I didn't have to change any settings anywhere. I love that it comes with 2 mics incase one dies or if I have a friend in the video with me. The charging case is also a big plus. To be fully honest, I fell in love with this before buying it and now that I have it and saw that it exceeded my expectations It has given me the confidence to make content!
Pros:
Flexibility
Compatible with both iPhone (lightning port) and android (USB-C)
Works with DSLR
Long battery life
Included filters
2 Mics
Charging case
came with a little carrying bag
Cons:
I only have one and want another

This is my third Saramonic product, and this fits the exact needs I had! Such a great, low profile mic set, and so easy to use with my phone! A lot of times I find myself in a pinch without having my DSLR and having to shoot straight on my phone, and this is the perfect mic solution for phone shooting! I love how small and compact everything is. I love the charging case that carries everything I need. And the audio quality is great! Another great product from Saramonic. Really happy with this purchase and can't wait to start using it regularly.

Captures quality audio & isolates audio well. Way better than in phone mic.
Batteries lasts a good while, and the box charges the mics when you place them back in, so the batteries really last twice as long. If you use only 1 mic at a time in "mono" mode, you can conserve battery for 4x advertised run time. Very cool!
Connectivity works great for the distances I'm using them at (~30 feet)
Weight makes it so that the connector wears quickly. That's my only concern. Not sure how many times I can plug it in before I need a new adapter.
Charging box is also very sturdy. Survived a 2 story fall onto concrete.
