Perhaps the main drawbacks of this system, in my opinion, are the noticeable level of white noise on recordings and signal stability issues. Yes, similar wireless systems all have signal problems when there are obstacles between the receiver and transmitter (even just turning your back is enough). But with this system, the signal can drop even with direct line of sight. Especially in places like shopping malls, where there is a high level of interference from WiFi devices.

There were also some manufacturing defects. The first purchased set suffered from interference on the left channel. I exchanged it under warranty. Judging by user reviews on forums, this is a common issue.

My advice, if you have the financial means, is to consider the RODE Wireless GO II. It will be more expensive, especially if you buy lavalier microphones and cables to connect to smartphones, but it's more reliable.

For a more detailed look at the tests, I recommend checking out the review on my channel: https://youtu.be/tuT5h-0ZeIQ
- Package contents;
- convenient charging case;
- overall sound quality (both built-in microphone and lavalier);
- possibility of two-channel recording, with sound from each of the two transmitters recorded in a separate channel;
- presence of screens on both the receiver and transmitters (convenient for monitoring and setup);
- battery life (up to 7 hours);
- ability to switch microphone input on transmitters to line mode;
- availability of headphone output;
- attractive price for such a set
- Issues with signal loss;
- noticeable background noise in recordings;
- build quality: fragile mounting clips, loose and inconvenient buttons;
- no wind protection included for lapel microphones.
