Overview

The Neewer 21000098 Lavalier Lapel Microphone is a compact, clip-on condenser mic built for creators and presenters who need clean voice capture without a complicated setup. It connects via a gold-plated 3.5mm TRS plug, making it compatible with cameras, camcorders, audio recorders, and smartphones that have a standard headphone jack. Where this mic stands out from generic lavs is its direct compatibility with several popular wireless transmitter systems — including the Rode Wireless GO II, DJI Wireless Mic Transmitter, and Neewer's own CM28 and CM31 units — so you can clip it on and go wireless without hunting for adapters.

The omnidirectional condenser capsule is designed to capture voice from all directions with high sensitivity, producing clear and detailed audio suitable for interviews, lectures, vlogs, and live presentations. The 1.2-meter cable provides enough reach for typical clip-to-device or clip-to-transmitter use, and the metal lapel clip holds the mic securely on collars, ties, or shirt fronts. Since it draws power through the TRS connection, there are no batteries to charge or replace. For devices that lack a 3.5mm input, such as newer USB-C smartphones, a separate adapter is required.

【Omnidirectional Condenser for High Fidelity】 The omnidirectional condenser mic is highly sensitive to pick up voices 360° for HD uncompressed audio quality and deliver clear and crisp voice recordings
