Great Devices

Reviewed by Todd on B&H Photo Video
I recently purchased these for work and doing press conferences. The devices work great and the audio quality is very good. I wish there was a little more information in the packaging on how to connect lavalier mics. One issue I learned on the fly is that I needed a powered mic to get them to work with my iphone.
Outstanding

Super small and well designed. It solved a problem that I have been working on for a long time. How to get a wireless mic to work with Flimic pro running on the Samsung Note 9. The system is very lightweight, well designed and works perfectly. Recommended because it is smaller than the Sennheiser and cheaper.
Outstanding range and quality

I'm a Videographer, and I can tell you this is a must to your audio arsenal. What's really cool is the design is made to fit any hot shoe ion camera or off. Another cool feature was the transmitter also has a built in mic and two wind screens. I may buy another set for both my cameras. I hate wires. Love my Rode Wireless Go.
Great Piece Of Equipment!

For being such a small device, this kit is great for those who need a wireless mic system, for quick and useful recordings.
bad quality 3.5mm cable.

The kit is good for the price. The problem was the cable that connects to the camera (Sony A7s) is not good enough and it cames already doing bad connection. B&H will replace it (and I appreciate that). but Rode should make a better product.

Totally worth the money

I purchased this one and the black version. Built-in microphone is plenty clear but the whole thing because much more concealable once the Lav is attached. I love this setup. This Lav is more clear for a female voice. I use another Lav with this setup when I record my own voice as it provides a bit more clarity in the low end.
Best wireless system

I was extremely impressed at how compact it is, as my needs require portability. I was equally impressed with its performance. Im extremely happy with this. I have one hiccup, I am so happy with this product that Id hate to say anything negative but the wind protectors (Dead Cats), I wish they locked on better but def not a deal breaker. Ill figure out another way to lock them on.

This is my new Goto microphone for most video I do. I use this with both my Canon M50 and GoPro 9 with the media mod and have great success. I have a lavalier to use with it, but have found in most instances I don't need it as I just clip the go mic to my undershirt and it's hidden and picks up well.
Not for most womens clothing but easy to use & good sound.

Easy to use, great sound but it's sexist. I assumed this thing was lightweight enough for clothes but it's not compatible with most of my Florida closet. Definitely made for men's clothing. If you're a woman prepare to attach it to ugly overalls, jackets, sweatshirts, some low cut shirts, or just wear a bra and nothing else.
Fantastic Performance on IOS

I have a small Youtube channel and we use the Rode Go for audio in noisy/distant difficult shots and its a game changer. The battery life and audio quality is amazing for such a tiny package. Only 2 Cons, the dead cats dont stay on well, and you can only pair one transmitter to a receiver. I have ALREADY bought another.

I use this on my DJI Osmo pocket while driving in my tow truck. Very noisy environment yet still picks up my voice very well. Slows me to talk to the camera while driving and having face tracking and while outside and talking to the camera while loading a vehicle.
Foolproof performance

Reviewed by Sashi on B&H Photo Video
Super simple to use, extremely portable, and it just works flawlessly. I wouldn't count on the built in mic as its easy to muffle and picks up a lotta wind noise easily (even w jammer), but in a PINCH, its brilliant! I'd definitely tack on a good pro lav mic and this setup is a winner. Haven't tested range yet, but for general use in close quarters, for the $$, this is a real winner
Not for pros

Bad issues with electronic interference, one unit is a brick after 7 months of light use. If you lose line of sight at all, no bueno. When they work they are great but if you are mission critical look elsewhere. I have had to punt these units for my 10 year old sennheiser bodypacks more times than i can count.
Great microphone system

I use this microphone system frequently and have not had any issues with it so far. I use it with my EOS R camera for a wireless microphone setup. I also use it with my RODECaster Pro podcast system. The battery lasts for quite a while and the display comes in very handy for checking audio levels. Another use that comes in handy is to use them backwards as a low latency wireless headphone system.

This rig is perfect for the studio or my run and gun set up. Love it, you won't be disappointed. I like it so much that I bought another one.
Excellent product

Reviewed by Karl on B&H Photo Video
I like many purchased this as soon as it was announced at NAB. I sold my larger, older Rode wireless setup for this and couldn't be happier. In my tests/use, I've got a signal at 60-70ft facing to/away from the transmitter with no drop outs. As mostly a single cam op, these are ridiculously useful and pack up nicely in my kit.
Great for video audio!

The wireless system works as expected and has an easy set up process. I especially like that the receiver attaches to the camera hot shoe. I haven't needed the clip on mike yet....the audio without the mike is just great.
still messing with the sound levels

Reviewed by Casey on B&H Photo Video
I am a complete beginner. For me this has involved more than just plug & go. The first time I recorded the sound peaked and was sounding loud. Then I turned down the gain. After more research found out I also needed to adjust the on camera volume before hitting record. Any additional tips welcome! Hopefully I will get the hang of it soon.
Great Mic that is Incomplete

Reviewed by Heidi on B&H Photo Video
Battery life is great, the sound is fantastic, the wireless part is great too. The two main complaints for us is that the mic doesn't attach to a collared shirt well and the dead cat cover NEVER stays attached. It is a great piece. It solves 90 percent of the issues. It is just not complete. Yes, I would buy again. It is a good piece.
