5.0 out of 5 stars Rode, Excellence in Audio
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2024
I purchased the Rode mics after hearing the sound quality they produce from IRL live streamers. The ME mics do not disappoint. Set up and connection is plug and play and easy to use. I have used these for well over 6 hours and had zero issues. Light, compact and amazing sound quality. The one thing they are lacking is a dedicated mute button. Not really a big deal as you can power off the mic if needed to mute. Great quality product!!!!

We use these for our FITBODY YouTube channel and the audio is SOOOO much better than other lav mics or camera mounted ones. Work very well and easy to connect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for User Generate Content Videos
Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2024
I ordered this because I was using a Rode lavalier mic for some UGC content I do, but I was limited in how far I could stand from the iPhone camera. I thought this would be a great way to cut the cord! It is! If you look up the instructions online and follow them, everything works great. I'm very happy with this purchase and it's enable me more freedom in the action I can do on video without having a cord dangling in front of me. I will say I wish the volume level was louder, but I've got it set as loud as it will go without clipping. If you need a wireless mic system, go ahead and get this one! I can't attest to battery life, but for the two hours it took me to do a shoot recently the charge on both units held well!

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well, but quality control needs improvement
Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2024
I'll start with the one bad point (and two minor quibbles).
Like several other reviewers, I had to send the first one I received back for replacement (the replacement works perfectly). There seems to be a quality control issue related to the built-in batteries (either the batteries themselves or the connections to them?) so expect that you might need to return them for replacement. An easy way to check is to try turning them on when you first get them - if it seems like the batteries are completely dead, you may have a faulty kit. Before sending them back, plug them in to charge - an hour should be more than enough (plugging them into your PC's USB port is ideal, because if you download Rode's software for changing settings and updating firmware, it monitors and shows you the current battery charge). If they don't charge, it's faulty and you need to return for exchange.
The second point is that the kit comes with only one *very* short USB cable for charging the units; fortunately any USB-C cable will work.
And the final point is that the included case doesn't fit everything that comes with the kit.

Now for the good.
When you get a working set, it works very well. Sound quality is good, as is the functional range between the transmitter and receiver. You could have the receiver sitting at one end of your house and still have a solid connection from the other end of the house, which for most if not all use cases is more than enough.
Both the receiver and transmitter have built-in microphones (and fuzzy noise filters to put over them) so you can work with just this kit if need be.
There are USB-C connectors on both transmitter and receiver. These are for changing settings and updating the firmware via the software (I believe there are both windows and mac versions) you can download from Rode's website as well as charging the batteries. In addition, it can be used as the connection between the receiver and the device you're connecting the set to, whether that's your computer, phone, tablet, etc.
The receiver also has a 3.5mm line out connector as an alternative, and the transmitter has a 3.5mm connector for an external microphone if you don't want to use the built-in microphone.
If your batteries are getting low, you can still use both transmitter and receiver while they're plugged in for charging.

Easy to get going (you have to hold the power button longer than you think you need to, when the first light comes on you think you’ve got it, you don’t. Have to wait another half a second. Other than that, works great range is good, compact and absolute quality from rode. Shoes this over the ME 2 because of the automatic gain.

1.0 out of 5 stars I think I got faulty parts

 Well I charged both the receiver and the mic last night in hopes to use them today but it doesn’t seem like they work. I watched a few YouTube videos to see why I might have issues even turning them on but it seems I may just have faulty parts. I’m going to try to return them in hopes that, that is the case.

Edit: I got my second transmitter and receiver and they don’t work again so. I have lowered my stars from 2 to 1. Pretty disappointed as rode is known to be some good high quality mica.

 I don't always use a microphone, but when I do, I used my RODE WirelessME. Ture be told I always use a wireless mic when filming and I find myself going back and forth between my RODE and DJI mics. RODE for overall sound quality but not very convenient for make quick sound adjustments and or monitor. DJI is very user friendly and sound quality is more pronounced and or louder in post-production.
