DJI Mic 2 Transmitter Review
OverviewThe DJI Mic 2 system is a compact, wireless microphone solution designed for content creators, vloggers, and professional filmmakers. It offers high-quality audio capture with enhanced features, improved connectivity, and a sleek design. The transmitter, which is part of the system, plays a key role in delivering clean, reliable, and crisp audio to the receiver, whether you’re shooting a solo vlog or capturing high-fidelity audio for a professional production.ProsCompact and portable design that’s perfect for mobile recording.Crystal-clear 48kHz/24-bit audio for professional-grade sound.Low latency and stable wireless connection (up to 250 meters).Built-in noise reduction ensures high-quality audio, even in noisy environments.Long battery life of up to 15 hours per charge, reducing the need for constant recharging.User-friendly touchscreen controls for quick setup and adjustments.Lav mic input for even better audio control and versatility.Real-time monitoring and feedback for flawless recordings.ConsLimited range compared to some other wireless systems—though 250 meters is more than enough for most users, it’s important to note that performance may degrade in extremely crowded or obstructed environments.No physical buttons for some controls—everything is done via touchscreen, which may not be as intuitive in fast-paced situations where you need quick adjustments.While audio quality is excellent, it may still fall short in extremely noisy outdoor environments when compared to higher-end professional systems (but it is great for everyday use and most filming scenarios).Final ThoughtsThe DJI Mic 2 Transmitter is a fantastic wireless audio solution for anyone looking to improve their content’s sound quality without the complexity of larger, more expensive microphone systems. Whether you’re a vlogger, filmmaker, or journalist, it offers an excellent balance of portability, ease of use, and professional-grade audio quality.Its compact design, noise reduction features, and reliable wireless connection make it perfect for solo shoots, interviews, or multi-person setups. With the ability to easily clip it on and start recording, the DJI Mic 2 is an ideal solution for creators on the go.If you’re looking for an easy-to-use, high-quality wireless mic system that’s both affordable and portable, the DJI Mic 2 Transmitter is definitely a top contender in its class.

Brilliant, but…actually, there’s no real “but”.
As an audiophile who needed something “quick and reliable”, I’ve been through various wireless mic options, and none fit the bill, until the DJI Mic 2 came along…The Good:Bluetooth! Yes, the mics can be “standalone” connected to your bluetooth device. This is utterly brilliant. Is it perfect? No. Is it perfect for the run & gun scenario, filming something for social media? You bet. This includes connectivity to the iPhone’s bluetooth, as it can be connected to the DJI Oslo’s, the Insta 360 X3, etc. This feature puts DJI above the competition – at least for me.32-bit float: In the ever competitive race with Rode, DJI has now caught up and introduced 32-bit float recording. Is this important for you? That solely depends on your use-case scenarios and whether you’ll be in a reasonably controlled space and/or if the “wearer” understands that sceaming into a microphone will make the sound unusable. 32-bit float is not 100% fail-proof, but it may be the deciding factor between unusable, clipped audio, and audio you can recover in post editing.Size: The size of the DJI, when compared to its appropriate competition, is FAR more desirable. It’s small and compact, relatively inconspicuous, except…did we really have to emboss the DJI logo in brilliant white? C’mon now. That’s a bit much. Although, it’s a solvable issue.The Receiver: The features of the receiving unit, with its jog-dial and touchscreen, is definitely advantageous over the competition, and the included connectors for lightning or USB-C devices, neatly stored inside the transport case, are a great touch. The cold-shoe is now integrated into the receiver and very sturdy. It can be mounted in any direction, giving you visual access to the very legible display. Best yet, the receiver has a small and removable tab, allowing you to connect the supplied dongles. Smart design and well integrated.The Transmitters (mics): Sleek and small. Unfortunately, from the original DJI mic to the Mic 2, DJI desired to become “transparent” and apply the DJI logo in, recessed, font. Well done for the DJI engineering team, but you need to talk with the design and brand team, and have a little jousting battle. I’m rooting for you, engineers. For those who do not want to advertise for DJI, after plopping $349 into their bank account, a bit of gaffer tape will resolve the issue, and improve the looks of the unit. I have not yet tested whether that affects the range, but in case it does, a black marker will neatly cover up the white font.The transmitters do have an option to connect a wired lavalier mic, however, it cannot be screwed in. To me, that’s a non-issue. Unfortunately, the lav mics are a separate purchase, and not all lav mics perform the same. Thus, some testing will be required.The dead-cat/windmuff: DJI was really thinking on their design-feet, and the dead-cat now has an “appendage” which allows it to “mate” with the microphone, creating a solid bond. None of the twist-and-turn action as in prior designs or with the competition. Just go deep into your juvenile fun-cave and bring those two lovebirds together. Voila. Solved.One small contention, though: why is the dead-cat not in the same color as the transmitter (black) but off-gray?! Makes zero sense to me, and no, there’s no way that I have found to change the color. Maybe this will be an aftermarket solution.The transport case: metal housing, a single USB-C connector (more in a sec), a singular carrying pouch with accessories. It’s all well designed and appears to be quite durable. The case recharges both transmitters and the receiver, although I have not yet run into a situation where I’m out of battery on any of the units. Your mileage may vary, and the recharging power is not as strong as Rode’s Wireless Pro. Also, you cannot place the mics into the transport case when the dead-cat is mounted, which was possible on the Rode Wireless Pro. However, opposing to Rode, you have one neat carrying case, and the dead-cats live in there. It’s a minor issue.The “meh”:The sound quality lacks a bit in saturation and “fullness”, when compared to the Rode Wireless Pro. However, this can be fixed in post editing by EQ’ing to your liking. At the same time, this usually only stands out in a side-by-side comparison. Thus, if the listener doesn’t have their ear tuned to comparatives, I suspect that no one would decry the slight lack of bass.Will the metal transport case be affected by moisture, or extreme cold? Only time will tell, and chances that anyone is using the DJI Mic 2 on harsh environments, for long enough, is likely questionable to begin with.The ugly:Nothing. At least not yet.Is it pro grade?No, it is not. It’s upper-level, high-end, YouTube production worthy. Would I recommend this for a feature documentary movie, intended to enter film festivals? Nope. But, I’d say the same for the Rode Wireless Pro. That’s not the use-case for any of these solutions. Can you make do in a pinch and then post-process to compliance? Yes, but it’s still not a “Hollywood” solution for a full film. Then again, there aren’t many of us who do that, so with that being said….Would I recommend and buy the DJI Mic 2 again? Yes. Absolutely.

La calidad de sonido es excelente, la cancelación de ruido funciona muy bien, la pila dura mucho, son muy funcionales y prácticos, se sienten muy bien hechos al tacto y en general me parecen lo mejor que hay en este momento

Hay una sola cosa que no estoy de acuerdo , y es que por lo menos en iPhone con iOS 17, la aplicación de Facebook business suite , no reconoce el micrófono ni con el receptor conectado al celular , ni mucho menos con Bluetooth para poder hacer transmisiones en vivo haciendo uso del celular . Con la app de Facebook normal si reconoce ambas. Tal vez sea más bien cuestión con la app Facebook Business suite pero es algo básico y por lo que tal vez compremos este producto.
