Great Mic that is Incomplete
Rode Wireless GO Compact Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System Kit (Original, 2.4 GHz)
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.
So easy to use!

I love this mic! No need for a clumsy wire, plug and play with your devices (with the appropriate adapter, which comes in this kit!). Fabulous sound quality.
Lots of static & white noise

As far as the system goes, I like it. It's small, and compact, and easy to hook up. The main issue I have is there is a lot of static & white noise with the audio. I'm able to get rid of nearly all of it in post using Premiere Pro. This is the primary reason I can't give it a full 5 stars. I'm seeing quite a few post concerning this problem across the web, with no real solution for a fix.
Great audio and mobile.

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.
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.

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.
Good overall. Some small issues. See the test video

Overall the mic worked well. The mic transmitted further than I expected with little interference. However, I was not able to plug the charger into the computer to charge the unit. I had to use a phone charger plugged into the wall to charge without issue. The windshield falls off easily. I am still happy with my purchase. https://youtu.be/xK5DNkNoN68

Never seen such small senders and receivers. I really love the internal battery. No more waste like all these costly aa batteries. Seen a lot of reviews and fro my own experience: It is sometimes better then the very expensive ones. The mobility is crazy.

In the famous words of Steve Jobs, "it just works." Simple, solid, and even inside with obstructions I have been pleasantly surprised by the range. Highly recommended.
Very Good Wireless Option

Nice compact size. Easy to use and set up. Pairing the devices is very simple. The built in mic is adequate at best. If you want quality audio you should plug in/use a compatible external mic. The included fur windshields do not stay on very well.

Great little addition to my Rode family of microphones and wireless filmmaker kits. I know this will always be in my camera bag now. Rode is great! I broke my cold shoe adapter from my filmmakers kit. I reached out to them and they send me a pair of replacement with no charge and was shipped all the way from Australia.

Just getting started with video, so i cant speak as far as quality compared to higher end models. I mostly do run and gun video and these are fantastic. Quick easy set up excellent audio even without the lav mike. Highly recommend!

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.
Easy to use, great results!

I got to use these twice this week to record interviews, and they worked flawlessly! It's a fantastic grab-and-go option for recording audio, and I'm looking into lavalier microphones that play well with these to make them slightly less noticable. That being said, the audio from the built-in microphone is great, even when it's attached lower on the subject's shirt. Definitely recommend these!

I am very disappointed with the rode and the quality of the product. I bought the product because of the references and the quality, I use several products of the brand. The built-in microphone never worked. I've heard several reports that it stops working when you plug an external microphone.

I bought the Rode Wireless Go because of its compact size and price. This system is so easy to use and setup was quick and easy. It comes paired right out the box. The built-in mic is fantastic and offers the option of using an external mic. There is not a better value in wireless mics on the market today.

As easy as it gets to set up and use. The mic and cable is very delicate and looks like it will need to be handled especially carefully. It doesn't stay in the clip very well.

I have longed for a remote microphone when I am taking a travel video. This microphone system has a good range. Make sure that if you are using it with the iPhone, that you purchase the adapter cable. The cable that comes with the microphone system works only with a video camera.
