Hollyland Lark M2 Wireless Lavalier Microphone for iPhone15/16&Android, USB C Mini Lapel Microphone Wireless, 1000ft Range, Hi-Fi Audio, Noise Cancellation, 30H Battery for Video Recording, StreamingClimatePartner certified

As part of my job, I create an audio recording of my voice each week. Previously, I have used wired lavalier microphones. Eventually, I switched to a wireless, Bluetooth lav, but I wasn’t quite satisfied with the sound quality.Basics:The Hollyland Lark M2 comes with several pieces. There is a T-shaped usb-c connected receiver. You plug this piece into your phone, or other usb-c device. It will receive the sound from the mic/transmitter, and put it into your device, using whatever app you use to record.Two wireless mics/transmitters come with this set. These record your voice, and send the sound to the receiver, and thus into your phone or usb-c device. The receiver and transmitter will automatically connect whenever the receiver is plugged in and the mic is both turned on. When they are connected, each piece has a solid blue light on it. If you only connect one of the mics, the t-shaped receiver will show one solid blue light, and another blinking one.A yellow button on the mic/transmitter will turn it on or off. A short press on the button puts the mic into noise-cancellation mode. At this point, the little blue light turns green, rather than blue.The receiver and mics are stored in a small case that will also charge the mics.Along with these pieces are several other things that help you attach the mics. You can hang a magnet on a string around your neck. The mics/transmitters have a magnet on the back and will attach to this. So it looks like you are wearing a necklace with a round pendant, which is, in fact, the microphone. If you prefer, you can place a magnet on the inside of your shirt, and attach the mic to it on the outside of your shirt. Simple, and you can place it anywhere. Finally, if you have clothing where this is appropriate, you can use a clip and magnet to clip the mic on wherever you like. I find this magnet system to be incredibly versatile, and easy to implement.Sound Quality.The Lark M2 has excellent sound quality. In fact, at first I thought it wasn’t going to work, because it reproduced sound TOO faithfully. I like to walk around when I record my voice, and the mic was picking up the creaking floor, or the sound of my cat trying to get into the room. But then I discovered that there is a noise cancellation function. You push the yellow button on the mic piece, and the blue connection light turns green, both on the transmitter and on the receiver. The green light means that noise cancellation is on. With noise cancellation, I found I had the sound I wanted.Note on connection. I record into a Google Pixel 6a phone. The phone has a case to protect it. I found that the USB C connector on the Lark M2 was short enough that phone case was sometimes pushing it out, causing the transmitter to disconnect from the phone. This was easily solved with a USB C extension adapter, available for a couple of dollars from Amazon.I’m very glad I purchased this, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who frequently records voices.

Oh wow! the sound is crisp. Totally studio sound. Love the attachment so I can power my iphone pro max 15 while making a video.If I get a call, video call, n pick it up , sound won't work, other party can't hear me. Obviously, it is not headphones. so I have to unplug the microphone from my phone's c port to answer the call. I bought another $20 something one that had rave reviews to compare. It looked exactly the same like this one so I figured may be I can get away with a cheaper brand.. sound was not so bad but BUT common, they haven't seen what quality should be like. And this one IS QUALITY! Love the cute storage box n the concept of magnet. Strong magnet. They give you the little furry button like things for wind so this can easily pass as a stylish button. I am not exaggerating when I say, some of the professional big hit podcasts I watch w the big pricier "professional" microphones didn't sound as good as this one. The other great ones, are just like this tiny mighty one. BTW, I record off my iphone.

I have a DJI mic 2 that came with my Pocket 3. I use my Lark M2's over the mic 2 because of size and audio recording quality. In a crowded room, when I place the Lark M2's under my shirt for a vlog type shot, I get clear audio quality and less room noise/conversations heard than with the mic 2. Also, the size is significantly different where the Lark M2 is smaller by half. I love that the Lark M2's quality is so durable. It's built like a tank. We've dropped it a couple of times removing it from the magnet and it still isn't damaged. In terms of range, anything within eye sight equates to a clear audio signal. We've not had any problems. The last thing is, it comes in pairs so I can have a vlog with both me and my husband talking attached to a mic and it's not a problem at all. So we love these mics. They're our go to.
