AP031 Wireless Lavalier Microphone 3-in-1 Plug-Play Noise Reduction Auto-Sync

This is a well presented product, the packaging is well thought out and the price is reasonable. The product itself consists of three parts (two if we are talking about the body of the model with a microphone). These are black plastic and while well made, they feel very plasticky. This is slightly less important than functionality. But first these need to be charged and to charge all three at the same time means three USB-C lines going to three sockets and although one USB-C cable is included that would mean two more USB-C lines cables are not at hand - this one after the other. A failure in this price range. Also in the box is a microphone extension cable and a single mono earphone. There are instructions and while these are fine and cover turning on and pairing the base unit with the mics, I later found them to be incomplete. Once the three parts are charged, the device can be used in two ways. First up is the base unit. You can use this with a 3.5mm headphone jack connection, so in a camera etc or like I tried with the front jack on my PC. Or you plug in your mobile device and you have your choice of an Apple connector or USB C. Turn on the base unit and a small (possibly too small) light will flash green, then turn on one or both microphone units. When the base station is paired, the tiny green light will stop blinking. The lapel mics work the same way, they turn on and the green light, which is better sized, then flashes steadily when paired. The mics have a nice spring loaded clip on the back and although they are relatively large (approx 35 x 40mm and 15mm thick) they fit well enough on a lapel or tie as they are light (only 30g). Using my PC and Windows Sound Recorder, I was able to easily get a clear recording that played at a level similar to that of a YouTube video, without having to change my usual volume settings. This made it pretty much plug and play and painless, which is really good. (my sound drivers are up to date and are proprietary to my motherboard and windows 11 didn't do this on its own) I use my android phone, record via a standard recording app (any works, there isn't a proprietary one for this product App required) and I was satisfied with the result here as well. However, I had to disconnect the microphone base unit to reproduce the sound, or alternatively I could have connected the single earphone...or so I thought. But no. A standard set of stereo earphones didn't work either, nor did a pair of USB-C headphones plugged into the C jack. It's worth noting that the C-jack in the base unit can be used for load-through, a nice feature, it didn't work as an audio source for me. No light was shed on this in the user manual, except that there might be problems with Android software. That could explain why the earpiece didn't work. And while pulling out the base unit isn't a huge issue, I found that to be a negative at first glance. However... Then I turned on Bluetooth and grabbed a set of wireless headphones, which are, to be honest, my audio choice of choice for my phone. With the base unit connected and using Bluetooth audio, I was able to hear my recording. Result. I then did a new recording, the app found it was using the external mic it had before, but I was like, can I be sure I'm not using the mic in my headphones? Just to be safe, I grabbed a willing helper and left the mic with them in the living room and walked down the hall to the kitchen, pressed record, called and they spoke. This test had two purposes: to show that the app was actually using a lapel microphone — the external mic and not my headphones, and to show that the 2.4 GHz signal was a reasonable distance away. I can then say I'd be happy to set up a phone as a camera or something — to film me and another person in a conversation for example, like one would do for an interview for a podcast, etc. I don't have the battery life tested to the point of extinction - but the specified running time is very good. In summary, while this product isn't perfect, it does the job when it comes to the important core function of recording from a reasonable distance, good audio quality. Not only did it work, if not perfectly, with Android - while it was fine for me as a Bluetooth headphone user, it also worked fine with my PC via the 3.5mm jack. This flexibility makes these wireless microphones a good product.

I'm actually surprised at how well these work depending on the size. The set I chose has 2 microphones included in the kit. Everything is beautifully and securely packaged so nothing is damaged in transit. The microphones are small and square and can be clipped to your clothing. They are very responsive and connect to the receiver quickly and easily. Once set up, the microphones are very easy to use and have good battery life. They are perfect for YouTube videos or recordings of any kind.

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.

Fast delivery, very well packaged in its own box with instruction manual. Complete set with 2 microphones, a receiver, USB and Lightning adapters and a round carrying case. The transmitter connection is made directly via the USB-C connector and both microphones can be used at the same time. The clips can be adjusted to have the best microphone position when held. Very good audio/recording quality and very good signal range. Easy to use, you don't need to install anything. Simply plug the transmitter into your phone and press the buttons on the microphones to connect. The battery also proves to be very durable and is compatible with several devices.

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.

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.

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.

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
