As a vlogger you may think that you’ve got things covered by having incredibly crisp looking video, but what if we told you that’s only one part of what you need to care about when creating your video? There’s also audio too and so many people forget all about this important part.
- 2.4GHz low latency digital wireless system
- Dual-channel receiver mounts directly to smartphones, tablets, digital cameras and tripods

Investing in great audio equipment is a must if you really want to stand out, that’s why a simple piece of equipment like the Go Mic Mobile is perfect for those looking to get professional level audio recording equipment that also hooks directly up to your mobile phone for the ultimate professional portable recording rig.
With a super simple setup that attaches to most mobile phones as long as it uses either lightning, micro-usb and USB-C as well as giving you the ability to hook into a DSLR with the 3.5mm audio cable.
The Samson Go Mic Mobile is recharged via USB and takes around 3 hours to fully charge or a fast charging USB port giving you around 7-13 hours usage time. The Microphone runs via two AA batteries (not included) and is accessed by unscrewing the handle section.
There is also a lavalier version of this kit should you rather use something like that over the hand held microphone.
The go mic mobile was incredibly easy to pair as it already comes pre-paired from the factory and will work straight out of the box. It was really just a case of plugging it into the phone, turning the power on both devices on and hitting record on the camera app.
We tested this device from a variety of distances and the quality was fantastic each time. The specs booklet says that it has a maximum range of around 30m in a direct line of sight which is further than we tested but that really gives you an idea of the possibilities that this equipment give you when you’re filming.
The receiver can be hooked up to two devices at the same time allowing you to have more than one person hooked up to a lavalier or hand held microphone for more interview style video recording.
One of the best aspects about the device is the ability for it to be used with multiple different devices with different setups simply by changing a cable or a 5 second pairing sequence making it great for those who shoot on multiple different devices like myself who uses DSLR, compact camera and iPhone for filming when travelling.
If you’re looking for something with a bit more freedom to roam around and filming from a distance than a normal shotgun microphone like the Rode Videomic Go would give you then this is the ideal solution.
