 What's up guys, I have yet another microphone review for you guys today. This is the Mayono WM820, it's a brand new unreleased set of wireless microphone kits operating on the 2.4GHz frequency. This smashed its targets in the crowdfunding campaign that was running on it. Now this is the prototype engineering model so I don't have the actual public release model just yet but I have been trying this out and I wanted to showcase to you guys why this is absolutely great. So let's go ahead and unbox this, set it up and test out the audio to see how great this sounds so let's get straight into it. Now I just have to say starting off that this is probably the most compact and smallest wireless microphones that I've had so far. I've had a lot of them and you can check out the playlist of all of my microphone reviews in the past, I'll put that in the description as well but this one beats all of them by far. Now in the box let me go ahead and open it up. I'm really liking this black and yellow design so you have yourself there the user guide at the top. Now if you just take a look on the microphones here, there's one transmitter, one receiver, look how absolutely compact this is. Let me go ahead and remove this so inside the bottom of the box you have yourself the wind muff for the internal microphone of the transmitter then you have yourself a TRS to TRS phone cable then you also have the camera cable which is a standard TRS one then there's a very nice carry pouch which is also very compact to put both the transmitter and the receiver in there if you wanted to take it with you in your backpack. Let's take these out of its box inside each of these you have two USB-C charging cables. Now one thing that isn't in the box with this is a lavalier microphone so that's something you might need to buy separately but of course I don't have the public release model and it might come into the actual box when it goes out at the end of July but if it doesn't then that's absolutely fine you can get a lot of them there's a whole bunch of them on the market that you can add to this but I will be using a separate one to test the audio with a lav mic as well as the internal mic on the transmitter so let's dive in a little bit more of these devices themselves so you can see how compact this is and by the way this is probably one of the lightest that I've ever held on the right hand side of the transmitter you have yourself the power button a mute button and a pairing button you've got the USB-C charging port there at the bottom on the top that's where the microphone cable will go and that's the internal mic you have a couple of LED indicators that showcase different things one would be the connection status of the pairing and one is the charging LED indicator and with the receiver you have the power button the volume plus and minus gain buttons as well as the pairing button if you hold both of them down consecutively same indicator lights USB-C charging port on the top you can actually monitor this with some headphones if you put your headphone in there you can monitor the output and then this is the camera cable connecting port there now in terms of the battery life they have six hours of battery life in them now that surpasses a lot of the previous wireless microphones that I've had of this size so I think that is absolutely great the signal to noise ratio on this is around 82 decibels so I will be testing this out as well it does operate in a 2.4 gigahertz frequency but that does interfere with a lot of wi-fi and bluetooth enabled devices around you which I have a lot of so I will be testing that out as well to see how much interference there are in such a compact device so currently the audio that you're hearing is coming from my very premium shotgun microphone just out of view of the camera which is connected to a mix free 3 sound devices pre-recorder now that would obviously give me the best quality audio in any situation because it is an expensive piece of kit but from a wireless connection point of view I'm going to give you a sample of playing the audio directly from the internal mic on the transmitter and then setting up a labyrinth microphone with the transmitter as well and seeing how that sounds so let's go ahead and do that now so now the audio that you're listening to is coming directly from the internal mic on the wm820s of the mayona microphone this is an omnidirectional microphone as well so I think the quality on it is so great I have a whole bunch of wi-fi enabled and bluetooth enabled devices around me and I have played this back and I'm pleasantly surprised that this is probably the first 2.4 gigahertz wireless microphone kit that I've used in this office space of mine that doesn't have a lot of interference or hissing noises in the background by default so I'm so impressed and the way they've done that in such a compact and lightweight device it amazes me so it's no wonder that this surpassed over $700,000 on crowdfunding because the quality that you get and overall in terms of the pricing which I believe when it will come out will be below the $100 mark you're going to get an absolute bargain for the capabilities of this the next test I want to do is now use one of my other lavalier microphones I have one here from a previous mic set I'm going to connect this to see the difference in the audio quality so let's go ahead and make that switch so now this is the audio coming directly from the lavalier microphone that's connected to the transmitter I've also played this back and it's so much nicer so much smoother in quality so I do recommend using a lav mic if you have one if not there's plenty that you can buy on amazon but even then just the internal mic was so impressive to me that I can see myself using this to go anywhere and do filming outdoors especially the portability and lightweight option of this it can just fit in your pocket you don't even need to worry about having a specific carry bag for all of your microphones and all your cables this pretty much covers everything if you wanted to use this for your smartphone you can do that connect it to your cable and obviously use an adapter if you don't have a headphone jack but for me I can see myself using this in so many different scenarios so I think it's a two thumbs up from me let's just quickly take a look at the back of the box and add some of the key specifications to give you an idea of what this can do when it does get released at the end of July so you can see that the transmission range is up to 50 meters so having a range at that length to do pretty much any type of filming that you'd like for such a compact and lightweight device I think is great and for the most part you might not even need to do any filming at that range but to have the option and the flexibility of doing so I think is just great it's got a built-in antenna obviously as you guys saw from the design but there's zero latency that's monitorable on the receiver as well so if you do put your headphones into the monitor port of the receiver on the camera you can pretty much see that there's hardly any latency in the audio that's coming through which for me is one of the key things especially when it comes to editing in post and I believe when it does come out it will come in two colors white and black so this is quite good not a lot of wireless microphones give you options of different colors though to buy it to match whatever equipment that you have so I think that's just a nice touch to add on top of it so I'm very impressed with this I will be using this quite often as well so if you guys do want to check this out take a look at the link in the description below check out Mayona's website they do a whole bunch of camera and microphone accessories they've got some
