Pleasantly surprised by this little mic. Plugged the receiver into my phone, turned on the seperate mic and was recording within seconds. No fiddly pairing, no extra apps, just works.The sound quality is extremely good for something this size. Voices come through clearly and without any of that odd echo you sometimes get with cheaper gear. It also handles background noise fairly well, so you are not left editing out wind and passing traffic for hours.Range is better than expected. I wandered a good few metres away from the camera and it still picked up clean audio without any dropouts.Feels well made and the whole thing fits neatly into a bag or pocket. Ideal for vlogging, quick interviews or just getting better audio than your phone’s built in mic can manage.If you want something simple, portable and reliable, this is a good choice. No drama, no fuss, just does what it is meant to do.

Good audio quality and very light and easy to use

Pretty good, can’t complain

Excellent value for money for normal speech volume.Slight distortion on constantly raised voices.Noise cancellation works well, and is easy to toggle.Good for the price.

I used with a Samsung s20. I sometimes struggle to hear people at the end of the table in big meeting rooms. I don't need hearings aids yet but if my ears are blocked with hay-fever etc. I need some amplification. If its a hybrid meeting I can join on line using an owl set up. So I set out to try and find a sort of pocket owl that is small enough to pop on the table. It needed to beOmnidirectional to pick up the person speaking and less backgroundLow latency so I know when there is a pause to speak and don't keep talking over peopleBlock out my own voice, as the echo of my voice is distractingTransit into an earbud.There was nothing on the market that does this - please invent this, a hearing amplifier anyone struggling to hear can connect to in a meetingSo until someone invents something this works. You need to download the app, the instructions don't tell you that. Plug in and but the mics on the table, near the sound. Multiple mics can be positioned on larger tables. Set to NR reduces all sound except the speakers plus it almost cancels out my own voice when I speak. Connect your head set and it works.The later more expensive models don't work as they see the transmitter as a headset and not a microphone and the speaker is blocked. I had to use bluebooth earbuds so there is some latency. I tried wired earbuds with a usb splitter but just got interference. I will keep working on that.My only negative is that it does not come with a charging case. Later models do but they have the headset problem. I also bought the boyamini for the charging case. Also great but portable and small enough to use in a pub etc.

This is a pretty good mic system for the price and the audio quality is good, although not broadcast quality, as you might expect. The biggest disappointment was that although the receiver works perfectly when plugged into the USB C port of my Android phone, or when connected to my PC; when I plug it into the USB C port on my DJI RC2 Drone controller it fails to switch on. The same problem occurs when using a DJI Pocket 2 camera. Whether this is a clever bit of DJI tech to force me to buy an (expensive) DJI mic system, or whether there is some other problem, I don't know. Perhaps someone from Boya can explain?

For the price, this is a great little mic set. I was doing some filming for a set of instagram reels, for work. With two people talking, two mics was a must. Using an iPhone 13 Pro Max, the receiver plugged in and was immediately recognised. Both mics connected when turned on and worked perfectly. The sound was very good - we had a mix of indoor and outdoor, close ups and distance shots. Did it sound like we were in a studio? No. Was it enough for short-form videos on social media? 100% yes. I’m looking forward to utilising the creativity being able to be more mobile in videos that these mics afford. Another bonus is, unlike many other mics and even other Boya ones, the branding isn’t aggressive- the Boya name is also in black so it looks like you just have a mic on your top rather than a huge speaker with big text.

Absolute waste of money. The clip is small and weak and the mic falls off repeatedly. Also there is no way of tethering the dongle which goes into your phone, or the microphone itself. There are no proper instructions. The sound quality is ok but is of no use if it fell off three miles ago! I’d give it no stars if possible. I’d share a photo if I still had it, but it dropped off on a hill walk!
