SYNCO P1S: Wireless mini microphone for video recording on phone, charging case included, budget-friendly at $49

Shop SYNCO P1S at SYNCO Store

If you're recording video and need a budget-friendly wireless mic, the SYNCO P1S is a solid choice.

This compact, lightweight mic is tailor-made for mobile content creators. With a direct plug-and-play design for iPhones or Android phones, there’s no need for extra adapters — just connect and start recording.

When we used it indoors, even at close range, there was a lot of background noise — but it didn’t pick it up. It actually eliminated most of the surrounding sounds.

And real-world testing outdoors demonstrates excellent noise reduction capabilities and clear voice capture even at distances of 30 to 40 feet. Background noises like birds chirping and cars passing are effectively minimized without compromising the clarity of the speaker’s voice.

Another standout feature is the ability to charge the phone while using the microphone, which is a significant advantage for on-the-go content creators.

Pros

🟢Budget-friendly, great value

🟢Plug-and-play setup

🟢Built-in noise cancellation

🟢Lightweight, portable design

Cons

🔴Five hours of runtime per charge

🔴Clip durability concerns reported

🔴Only mono output (single channel)

🗨️“I'm a semi-professional videographer, and since I have to pay a lot of money for lenses, cameras, lights, a drone, etc., I couldn't afford to neglect the audio department. If you're looking for a low-budget investment for large-scale projects, these are the microphones you MUST HAVE!” -- simone r., Italy

SYNCO G3 Pro: Wireless microphone for video recording on cross devices, 2-inch touchscreen featured, at $129

Shop SYNCO G3 Pro wireless microphone for recording videos at SYNCO

The SYNCO G3 Pro wireless microphone system supports three audio inputs—two from transmitters and one from the receiver. It's a great choice for group video recording across multiple devices.

When tested in windy conditions, the G3 Pro’s physical windshields and intelligent DSP noise-cancellation shone—reducing wind interference while preserving ambient sound for clear results.

Pairing the system’s clip-on lavalier microphones with each transmitter delivers more consistent, natural dialogue pickup. This is especially important for voice-led content—outperforming built-in transmitter microphones in clarity and reliability.

The receiver's 2-inch touchscreen is a standout feature. It simplifies adjusting gain, monitoring levels, and toggling noise-reduction settings, all with a touch. This makes audio control intuitive for beginners while speeding up workflow for professionals.

Pros

🟢250 m transmission range

🟢10-hour receiver battery life

🟢2-inch color touch screen

🟢Three-level DSP noise cancellation

🟢Three-channel recording support

Cons

🔴Receiver somewhat bulky design

🔴No transmitter onboard recording

🔴Setup can be complex

🔴Possible interference in crowded venues

Shop SYNCO G2 Max wireless microphone for video recording

We would like to position the SYNCO G2 Max as a strong competitor to higher-end options —especially in terms of sound clarity and features, given its lower price point.

In our live range test, the G2 Max maintained clear audio up to 200 meters, which is impressive for a wireless system in an open environment. This extended range provides creators with significant freedom of movement without risking audio loss.
