There are lots of options for wireless lavalier microphones, but few are as inexpensive and straightforward as the AMPOMOV Wireless Microphone set.
In the box, you get a charging case that displays charge level remaining, a USB-C transmitter, two lapel microphones, a short USB-C to USB-A charging cable, a USB-C to USB-A adapter, a USB-C female to USB-C male adapter, and a user manual.
There’s little you have to do to get this setup to work. Using my Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max as the test device, I plugged the USB-C transmitter in and powered on one of the lapel microphones, whose light turned green once connected. That was it, it just worked.
Recording quality is very good overall. As you can tell from me reading this script, voice quality is clear. While it doesn’t have superior noise isolation and will pick up movement on your shirt or wherever else you clipped it with its 360-degree recording field, as long as you’re thoughtful about the microphone’s placement, it gets the job done.
You can get more sophisticated solutions with better voice isolation, but considering this has a roughly 65-foot range and is as plug-and-play simple as it gets, this is a great device to have handy when you need to be a distance from your video recording device. At less than $20, it’s a steal.
