Love this

This microphone came safely boxed together with accessories including double-headed USB-C charging cable and receiver. Both the microphone and receiver charge via USB-C, with red lights coming on when charging and turning green when charged. The light on the microphone is a ring around the neck and looks pretty cool. There are three buttons on the handle so the microphone is easy to use.The microphone has a plastic handle and is relatively lightweight so there's no premium feel but performance is pretty good given that it's less than £20. Range is decent and sound quality is fine for casual karaoke sessions. The battery easily lasts hours, I top it up after a long session though so it's ready for the next one. So far it has been working well, I am very happy with this wireless microphone.

AwfulSound quality

Really easy and straightforward to use. Was surprised with the sound quality as it’s better than I thought it would be and nice and clear. Really nice for what I paid. Just turned it on and plugged it into a speaker.

This was originally £60 or £65 I believe but reduced to £43 since testing/reviewing, so I'm going to review it based on it's current £43 but with its original RRP in mind.As this price, it's really quite cheap and as the products marketing images and description suggests, the quality of the microphone and vocals, are that of a £43 Microphone, when any kind of serious singer or vocalist would be being a wired and XLR £200+ microphone.But, wireless mics with receivers are surprisingly difficult to find, even on desktop condenser mics, that;s because the XLR and wired connection for professional vocal singing can transmit lossless audio to its input device, whilst also being powered.But this Microphone does not suffer any audio quality loss, as 2.4Ghz provides enough bandwidth for this class and tier of karaoke microphones.The product is actually really well packaged and comes in a compartmentalised and padded box, this includes a manual, a thank you/warranty card, the dual charging USB-A to 2x USB-C cable, the 2.4Ghz adapter, and a 6.35mm to 3.5mm gold plated adapter that allows you to plug this into and mic or combo mic jack.I already have a high fidelity sound system connected to my PC, and an existing Desktop Mic which is a cardioid mic, but otherwise not designed for vocals and a different mic design where you must literally sing into the top of the microphone for the correct cardioid pickup.Compared to my £65 Desktop 2.4Ghz wireless mic, this does not quite match the quality or pickup as much depth and detail and my vocals, but thats to be expected for a cheaper and different £43 product.Although when it was originally £65 when ordering, I was expecting this to perhaps be on par, but as with almost all vine items, they inflate the price and discount it immediately after.So the microphone itself is clearly not a professional tier mic, but is constructed well enough, and with its circular LED and buttons, it appears like a karaoke mic. But it's not unattractive, it's made of mostly plastics aside from the tip of the mic/cover. Which is either metal some kind of very tough plastic that is coloured silver, but it looks fine. And then synthetic rubber for the buttons, but it's appropriately styled for its purpose. Where maybe teenagers and kids would use this, or younger adults maybe.It claims 100ft/30m stable working range, I did not test this but I don't doubt those figures.The wireless connection is actually really good, I have seen these sold separately before but when the 2.4Ghz adapter and Mic are both charged up, they have 2 different bands as far as I can tell which you can switch from by pressing the "M" button.One good thing to note is, you can actually use both the Mic and receiver whilst they are still charging, when connected to my computer. I had to adjust numerous settings, to make this the default mic, I had to put it into mono mode.Now at first I was getting lots of interference, I noticed that unplugging the charger cable on the 2.4Ghz receiver stopped some of it, but that may be that is wasn't fully charged yet.I have lots of Bluetooth and 2.4Ghz devices in my bedroom that could cause interference with this, although they are all setup specifically to avoid interference with eachother.And without knowing specifically what bands this is using, it's difficult to say whether this suffers interference or not, because I have at least 10 Bluetooth or 2.4Ghz devices running all of the time, and several others that also support 2.4Ghz/Bluetooth bands but I have them disabled or turned off.But connecting to my Mini-PC in my Music Studio bedroom is the worst place for any kind of interference, I have taken many steps to prevent crossover from my existing devices.But actually, when I changed and matched the sample rate of the mic, to that of my speakers, somehow all interference disappeared. I do not think this microphone actually records above 16bit and maybe 48hz, I didn't see this anywhere in the listing and I would be surprised if it supports 24 bit 192khz.But even if it doesn't by matching it with my DACs 24 bit 192khz, it would have upsampled it anyway, my DAC goes up to 32bit 768khz but my streaming apps don't support higher than 24 bit 192khz anyway.So switching to mono and matching/up sampling the bit depth and sample rate somehow eliminated all interference that I was getting when I first plugged it in.On devices that are not computers like portable speakers, this is not likely to be an issue.So I don't think this mic supports 24bit or 192khz like my desktop Mic, which would improve the sound quality, but I wouldn't really expect that for a £43 product.The dual USB-A to twin Type-C charging cables allows you to charge both devices, I don't think it's rapid charging and the cable is very short. Which is a bit of a shame, because you can use the microphone whilst its charging, I simply used one of my many longer type-c cables.This means that when the battery is depleted, unless you use your own cables, you will have to wait whilst they both recharge.Chances are you have your own Smart Phone cables, which basically will allow for continuous use if desired and irrespective of the battery, which would be useful. But the 800mAH battery, claims to provide 9 hours, which is more than enough time for general use unless you're at an all night karoake party of some kind, which is unlikely. The battery sounds small but its enough simply to send the 2.4Ghz signal.The 2.4Ghz adapter has a battery indicator and channel/band indicator, this can also be used whilst charging, though its possible you may get interference, I did at first but then it disappeared.The Microphone has a circular LED which flashes red when recharging, purple or blue for each band/channel when in use, and it may also go green when fully recharged if I had to guess, but I didn't fully recharge it when testing.On a PC it will require some setup, and the mic gain is adjustable at 6db, 12db and I think 18db.But I found there was lots of distortion at 12db, I turned the volume to maximum but kept the gain on low which got me clean audio.You can adjust the volume on the mic itself with the intuitive +/- buttons, and plugging into other devices may not allow you to adjust the gain at all, so I'm not sure how it would perform plugged into a portable speaker or other devices.I tested the sound at first using WhatsApp voice memos, as this is what I use my Desktop mic for primarily, so this allowed me to get an accurate comparison.As stated the vocal/audio quality was adequate, not as detailed or high definition as my Desktop condenser mic, which also has a noise cancellation button.So SQ wise, this was not as clear or crisp as my non singing style £65 Desktop mic which is also cardioid, 24bit but not designed for singing.So I was maybe expecting this dedicated singing category of microphones to maybe sound as good as my desktop mic, especially at the original £60-£65 it was when ordering.But for a £43 product, with manufacturing costs going to the product as a whole, I'm not that surprised, it would have met and exceeded my expectations if the overall sound quality was at least as good, but with different variables and the lower £43 price tag. This is probably the quality you can expect for a Microphone product of this price.I haven't shopped for Karaoke of singing/vocal microphones but I have seeen many karaoke mic sets similar to this kit whilst looking for more high end mics.Although generally you have to pay more like £80-£100 to purchase a similar Microphone that has superior audio pickup, for very good quality sound, sample rate and quality. And not all of these will use the same wireless 6.35mm 2.4Ghz adapter setup.I can say with absolute certainty that for either £43 or £60+, you can get twin karaoke mics with this identical wireless adapter setup.And not only do the single or even pair of mics look far more premium in quality.But even for around £20 you can get a dual mic set the same as this and adapter, wireless charging and without this somewhat cheap and tacky plastic colour with LED styling, which might appeal to kids and teenagers.Instead they have a more typical and premium looking appearance, which at the very least provides two microphones instead of one, and have similar basic audio specs, even with slightly greater 50M range.And then at the upper even between £43 to £60 again I have seen karaoke twin/pair of microphones, with the very same 2.4Ghz adapter.But at this price not only can you get 2x Microphones but both mics are significantly higher more professional and expensive looking, again without the seemingly intentional glossy plastic and LED with silver at the top, this does not look bad as such but is simply seems to have been designed for teenagers or the most basic and casual karaoke design, whereas these alternatives at least do a good job of replicating a much more expensive and professional looking mic and with superior materials, with the top section/guard being typically black.Whereas this product has intentionally gone for a sort of light beige colour and LED which is the style you find on kids/teenagers microphones.Furthermore even at this price, with a less atypical a premium appearance, they have significantly greater range, and some with manual frequency control via a small integrated LED screen.And in addition to all of that, for £43 if you wanted all of the above with a dual mic similar witness kit, yet with an expensive and studio quality appearance. They are still not professional tier, but I have seen twin microphone packs with all these features, greater range, and they state things such as a high fidelity/lossless mic coil, and most probably a higher quality mic array and bit depth/sample rate.Since I have seen more than a half a dozen if these more adult and professional looking dual microphones sets, with the same wireless 2.4ghz adapter and charging, yet they replicate studio quality design/materials, claiming up to 150M of range, frequency adjustable, and have implemented superior quality microphone coils. The audio quality is not likely to be vastly superior, but significant enough if you care about the best vocal detail, definition and clarity for your money.So I am confused why this single microphone set, has chosen what appears to be maybe a kids/teenager atypical styled avd coloured microphone, the LED is obviously designed to appeal to younger users, as this single microphone does not conform with the more premium and traditional professional-styled versions that are visually more appealing to me and it’s the more common styling and colour, even for dedicated karaoke mic sets they cannot perform as studio quality and tier mics but they replicate the same style and appearance very well.So the problem I have with this, is you can get more than double the product simply as you can get twin mic sets at prices lower than this.Whilst the children or young teenager styling does not look bad if that is what was intended, it does look far more cheap and tacky even though it’s well constructed, to my eyes I would much prefer the traditional styled design and colours, I’m 38.And when even at £43, and even more so at £60, you still get an additional/pair of microphones but you also get additional features, frequency band adjustment, greater range and a higher quality voice coil, which will at least have a noticeably superior audio pickup. There may be even more features this is just what I remember.So if you wanted to buy a Microphone with better audio quality, I know that Tonor and other brands do some higher spec twin mics within the £43 to £60 price range, that would sound better than this. These same karaoke wireless versions would use UHF/Radio built in transmitters, and include a 6.35mm 2.4Ghz adapter designed to be plugged into any device with a 3.5mm mic jack.So the product itself was good when testing, but im really struggling to justify the price when if you want the same setup but with traditional styling, you can get a pair of microphones with equal performance for almost half the price of this single mic product with its atypical more casual or styling that I assume is for kids or teenagers.I adjusted my sound settings so that my Microphone played though my speakers, whilst songs were playing. This allowed me to sing along very loud to my expensive speaker setup to any song on YouTube etc, but this means I was also getting what sounded like reverb but what was echo from my speakers.But I actually used windows to record me singing to a song, and on the recording you do not hear the echo, but that's the easier way for me to test this as a karoake mic, if it had a wired 3.5mm or XLR connection then I could have connected it directly to my DAC, and avoided the Echo.But during my testing, i'm not a good singer at all and the setup wasn't ideal because of the inevitable echo, but I still had some fun trying to sing to various songs.If this were connected to other devices, where the speakers are further away then maybe there would be no echo, at first this sounded like the mic had been setup with reverb that you could not switch off.I don't think that is the case, as it was not present when I actually recorded the singing and played it back. Many karoake products do add reverb, but without testing it with any other speakers or devices, I can't say for sure.If it were its original £60 at the time of ordering, then I would say that if you simply want the best sounding microphone possible, you can definitely find better than this. But it would either be wired, or wireless yet without the 2.4Ghz receiver, which is what enables you to conveniently use this with many devices. So I think the wireless receiver setup is very good and convenient, and if you absolutely want this then I don't think this is a bad product especially for £43.But if you care less about it being wired, or using its own UHF integrated wireless receiver, I think you might be able to buy single or pairs of Microphones, that are ultimately going to produce higher quality audio/vocals, especially if your budget is £60.I know because I've spent some time looking at these types of microphones at this price and under £100, and there is Tonor and many other brands that offer slightly better microphones for prices similar to this, albeit with a different wired or wireless connection setups, sometimes with their own receiver units.But if you are happy to spend £43 for this single mic, not for any professional singing as if you are born with good vocal chords, this will not do it justice. But for casual, general karaoke singing, and just having some fun. My PC setup with echo wasn't ideal, but for other speakers that are not connected to PC, I'm quite certain that echo will not be an issue.When the sample rate was matched, and considering my Dual band router and about a dozen active 2.4Ghz and Bluetooth devices, which have the potential to cause interference. Surprisingly, I don't know precisely what frequency bands they are using but once the gain was turned down, I got zero interference.So if you are an adult, teenager, kids or just want a bit of fun, for £43 this is a decent product that you can sing with and have some fun with, and at this price its about what I would expect in terms of sound quality, if you want to use this rather convenient 2.4Ghz receiver then overall it's a high quality product, but the pricing I do not understand.But to conclude, even for the discounted £43 this is a highly convenient and versatile device thanks to the rechargeable 2.4Ghz 6.32mm/3.5mm receiver, allowing you to connect it to all devices with a 3.5mm input.But then so are many others, you can also buy these receivers separately as I've seen them before.But you can buy double the microphones for £20, that look far better and perform similar.And even for £43, at that price you can again get twin dedicated karaoke microphone sets with the same adapter, but far better range, more features, traditional and premium quality construction avd styling vs this one.And if you really want the best quality sound and frequency response, if you enjoy singing and have vocal talent. Then for this price you’ll get all of the above but some degree of greater quality with superior “high fidelity and lossless” mic coils, quite likely greater bit depth and sample rate also.Although I don’t think the sound quality will truly be high fidelity or anywhere close to studio and professional quality which isn’t possible under £200.Just implementing superior mic coils and stating higher quality components within the mic array and specs, is more than this product claims, if it does have anything unique in terms of audio quality then it does not specifically state it.So this microphone does not sound terrible at all during by testing, it didn’t quite meet my expectations though for its price.And the very least you can simply get two microphones in many competitor products, for far less than £43.And if traditional and premium style/appearance, plus greater range, frequency adjustment and maximum audio quality for your money (and 2x Microphones included ) is important to you.Then I cannot quite understand why this single mic is priced so much higher, or what you are getting for the additional money.And it begun at £60 when I ordered this, then discounted to £43, which is even less value for money.The product packaging is very good, and it appears to be a brand that I’ve not heard of.But unless I’m really missing something, whilst shopping for my desktop microphone I came across many similar karaoke mic products that use the same convenient sureness connection and charging.But there were numerous twin microphone and single packs, cheaper than this, that lacked this atypical styling with LED.And similarly many at this current £43 RRP, are again twin mic sets, traditional and premium stying, with additional features, and components and specs that would simply offer greater audio quality, pickup and frequency response, not significantly greater but almost certainly quite a noticeable improvement.So whilst you can still have fun with this, if you really want to enjoy singing and do your vocal talent justice.Then I do not see why this product is seemingly more expensive than the few I’ve seen, it still sounds good enough through my speakers, but worse than my desktop mic and if you can get two microphones that are cheaper and/or superior to varying degrees.If you are a bit more serious about your karaoke and sound quality I would look elsewhere. If you can buy more and better for your money, then I do not think this sounds terrible or bad by any means but I think you can do much better.The warranty card that's included, and the manual which I forgot to take a photo of, means this brand offers a warranty and customer/aftersales support, I've not heard of the brand but it does not appear like a generic device so that is reassuring.
