Plug and play; improved audio; it just works!
The Apple compatible Blink500 ProX is so easy to use, to plug in the transmitter and turn on the receiver(s) and it works! You don't have to worry about any complicated settings, you get two sound options, mono or stereo. The entire package is very compact, and the receivers are tiny and discreet enough in my opinion. The receivers charge via USB-C, and the transmitter is powered by the iPhone. The transmitter does have an audio out for real-time monitoring so you can get audio feedback and make mic adjustments as needed. Speaking of the audio, the sound to me is fuller than the iPhone mic, it improves noise cancelation, and sounds crisper.Some improvements would be, the receivers do not have a lavalier out, so you can't attach a wired mic if you wanted to as an option. These do not have an option to charge wirelessly, you have to plug them in. There is no monitoring screen like some of the more expensive brands have. While the range is up to 100 meters, some of the more expensive brands can transmit up to 250 meters.If you are looking for a simple plug-and-play solution to enhance your microphone/audio needs, this is definitely an upgrade from the built-in mic on the iPhone. It's a sweet spot from the more expensive options out there, but not too cheap where the audio isn't an improvement over the iPhone. I do wish the price was closer to $150, I think that would be a perfect price and value for this kit.

Easy. Convenient. Great quality.
The fastest best way to mic two people and get great audio on your phone. Period. Love the low profile connection to my lightening port. I highly recommend this. My business partner went with the hot shoe model for more flexibility, but it’s a little clunky to work with when you’re filming on a phone. This is so fast, easy, and non-obtrusive.

Device works great. Good sound. Instructions, including the YouTube video, needs help.
This is an update of my first review. The product works great once you figure out the key, missing step from the instructions. I was unable to get the blue light on the receiver to work so pairing instructions didn't work. I sent the unit back to Amazon for a replacement figuring I received a lemon. I had the same problem with the replacement, but in trying to get it working the blue light turned on. I tried to see what happened and it went off again. After playing around with the iPhone I discovered that the iPhone needs to be in the camera mode for the RX light to work. Once I figured this out it worked like a charm. Just turn on the camera, plug the RX into the phone, turn on the TX, (I don't think the order matters), and start recording. Very easy!I tested the audio quality of the built in iPhone mic, the TX mic, and the TX lavalier. The iPhone mic was the loudest but picked up ambient noise and sounded a little tinny. This was when I was speaking into it when taking a video. My experience is that as soon as the speaking subject gets any distance away the sound drops off quickly and gets drowned out if there is much ambient noise.The TX and TX with lavalier both provided good quality sound. The lavalier was maybe a little better but in a pinch just using the TX should work. I was always within 20 feet of the iPhone so I have yet to test the range. Also, I don't know how well they work with a lot of ambient noise such as wind or automobile traffic but I am sure the sound quality will be better than the iPhone mic.I upgraded my rating to 4 stars only because the instructions left off a key step that caused me to waste a lot of time. If they fix the instructions on their YouTube video and written instructions my rating would be a 5.

Easy & Amazing Sound Quality
I used these when we were filming outside shots the sound quality is amazing! We were in a windy area far from the phone or receiver and it sounds like you are right next to the receiver - I couldn't have been more happy with my purchase.

Stopped working after 3 uses
These worked great for 2 videos that we were using them for, but once we hit the 3rd one the audio started having gaps in it and sometimes cutting out altogether (yes, the mics were fully charged we made sure of that). We are very disappointed in these mics and they have caused a headache for us video production wise. Do not recommend unless you need a short term use of these.

Business videos here we come!

Easy to use, hard to hear.
These work just fine, but the volume just isn’t there. Even in max volume they are too low. My Rodes are perfect, and I’m gonna go back to using them. The Blinks are easy to use, but the Rodes sound WAY better. I’m returning them.

Great sound quality, simple to use, and yes you can use it with an Apple device
This is a really good basic Wireless Lavalier Mic system, no frills - just good sound.Setup is very easy, you just use the provided cables to plug in to your audio device or Android phone. You'll need to buy a cable if you want to use this with an iPhone but it does work just as well with the right cable.The main two things to think about include:1) Audio QualityAudio quality is very good, I tested these mics in different environments and the sound is nice ant clear. I did find that the little mic covers did a really good job of reducing wind noise.It would be nice to be able to plug in a remote mic to clip behind your shirt and leave the main device hidden.2) RangeI also did a few range tests and range was very very good in the same room, range fell off (as expected) if you move in to a different room.You would most likely be using these mics in the same room as the receiver so there should be no concerns here.Compared to other systems...The case is really nice, but too bad it's not a charging case - you need to plug each piece in individually to charge. It works, but is messy.Overall this kit comes together well and earns 4.5 stars... rounded up to five.

son top qualité même éloigné
cet ensemble de 2 micro-cravate est de bonne facture.les composants sont de bonne qualité et l'enregistrement sonore également.les micro semblent bien capter la direction du son et élimine légèrement les bruits parasites.Parfait pour mes prises de vue et interviews.Le récepteur peut même se greffer sur la griffe de l'APNLe kit est fourni avec différents câbles.À ce prix, j'aurai aimé un adaptateur USB jack pour enregistrer via mon tél.Le prix peut paraitre élever mais la qualité est au RDV

sehr gut für Videoaufnahmen
Dieses Mikrofon wird mit zwei Sendern und einem Empfänger geliefert. Ich habe es an meinem Laptop getestet, während ich für meinen Kanal (vierstellige Followerzahl) auf Jutube aufgenommen habe. Der Empfänger wurde von meinem Windows 10 (!) Laptop nicht sofort gefunden, obwohl er einen Audioeingang für Kopfhörer und Mikrofon hat. Das System fand das Gerät zwar, meldete es aber als "nicht erkannt". Das änderte sich, als ich einen Hub mit Audioeingang anschloss. Zuvor hatte ich es mit dem mitgelieferten USB-C-Kabel versucht, aber auch das funktionierte nicht. Was wie gesagt funktionierte, war ein an USB-C angeschlossener Hub, der einen eigenen Audioeingang hat. Der Receiver selbst wurde dann nicht mehr erkannt. Es wurde aber ein "Audio-USB-Device" erkannt und die Aufnahme funktionierte einwandfrei.Ich habe den Ton dann mit einem Plugin nachbearbeitet, das Hintergrundgeräusche herausfiltert, denn ohne dieses Plugin war etwas zu viel Hall zu hören. Das Mikrofon ist schon sehr empfindlich. Als weitere Plugins habe ich ein Breath Control Plugin und ein De-Esser Plugin benutzt. Dann klang es für meine Ohren sehr gut. Dass so ein kleines Mikrofon klanglich nicht an die großen herankommt, die ich sonst für reine Audioaufnahmen verwende, ist in Ordnung.Also ich denke, es ist ein sehr gutes Mikrofon für Leute, die Videoaufnahmen machen wollen und nicht so viel Zeit in die Nachbearbeitung stecken wollen.Drei recht kurze, aber sehr hochwertige USB-A-zu-USB-C-Kabel werden mitgeliefert. Alle mit vergoldeten Steckern auf beiden Seiten.Die beiden Empfänger haben einen kleinen Windschutz, der sich leicht auf- und abstecken lässt. Empfänger und Sender verbinden sich nach dem Aufladen problemlos per Bluetooth und bleiben dann verbunden.Eine sehr gut genähte Tasche ist auch dabei. Alles in allem ein hochwertiges Mikrofon, meiner Meinung nach besonders gut für Kameraaufnahmen oder eben am PC mit den richtigen Anschlussmöglichkeiten.
