Hollyland Lark M1 wireless microphone review – Quality sound on the go

pcinvasion.com:

When creating content of any kind, having a quality microphone is as important as anything outside of the topic of the video. While many choose larger mounted mics, some just don’t have the space or need for something like that. That’s where something like the Hollyland Lark M1 wireless lavalier microphone comes in, which we have in for review today.

Retailing for $149.99 USD, the Hollyland Lark M1 is an entry level mic setup that aims to make recording easy and convenient without sacrificing quality.

Within the box, you get two mics, a charging case, and a receiver. You also get all the cables you need to connect it to whatever device you need from iPhone to Android devices with USB-C, to PCs, and cameras. Also included are two windsocks for outdoor recording and a nice hard case for storage.

Setup is pretty simple as you don’t have to sync the mics to the receiver. Just pull the mics out of the charger, and they’re ready to go. All you have to do is connect the receiver to the device you want to record with.

The mics have minimal buttons. There’s a power button and a noise-cancellation button. Even the receiver is simple enough with a power button and a volume button that goes between low, mid, and high, along with a stereo/mono toggle. The receiver also has a 3.5mm jack that utilizes whichever cable you choose to connect to the recording device.

Battery life is advertised as eight hours, and it’s great for longer recording sessions. When you need to charge the mics, you can simply plug right into the case to begin charging. The case can provide up to two charges before it needs to be charged itself via USB-C. Recharging takes just about 90 minutes.
