Review on 【SYNCO Authorized】 SYNCO G1 (A2) Wireless Lavalier Microphone System - 2.4GHz Lapel Mic, Dual Transmitters & 1 Receiver with Low Cut Filter Function - for DSLR, Mirrorless Camera, Smartphone, Camcorder, Recorder by Chad Baio

Revainrating 5 out of 5

So much potential, just not there.

For the price this could be very good. But if the sound disappears at a paid concert, nothing can happen. Twice they went out of sync at gigs, and even after reading the exact re-pairing instructions, one of them chose not to pair. Meanwhile, everyone on set waits 15 minutes while we keep trying. Not to mention that they worked flawlessly when tested in the office beforehand. They simply "decided" to end the pairing. Now when shooting that 1 such that the pair would work decently for about 5 minutes, then it just starts falling several times a minute. This is possible at a distance of 6-8 feet between receiver and transmitter. Ugh, I really wanted them to work, but they let me down when I needed them most. That being said, they seem to work especially in small indoor spaces without disturbing anything, in the most fragile and simple scenarios. I will definitely not trust them anymore. Maybe they're good for studio vlogging (if paired right) so you can move around a bit.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Obsolete model
