If you’re reading this article, you’re probably in the business of creating content, like the videos on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, etc. You know, the sound quality is very important for video, so you need a good microphone. Also, the microphone should be comfortable to use, for example, to record an interview.
I have a new wireless microphone with lighting port for iPhone and iPad. It has a nice charging case, about 80 meters transmission distance, 360 degrees omnidirectional sound pickup, and noise-cancelling technology.
By the way, the price of this microphone is very affordable – only $49 on Amazon.
So, let’s do unboxing and full review of ANDYCINE Wireless Microphone in this article.

Unboxing
This is the box of the new wireless microphone. We can see the image of microphone itself and receiver with Lighting port on the front.

Design
You know, ANDYCINE wireless microphone looks like wireless earbuds, but very large size.
A charging case has LED indicator on the front, and USB Type-C charging port at the bottom.
When you open the case, you will see a microphone to the left, and receiver to the right. You will not confuse them because the receiver has a Lighting port.
The microphone has indicator light on the front, clip on the back, and charging contacts at the bottom.
The receiver also has indicator light on the front and reset key at the bottom. By the way, the receiver doesn’t need charging contacts, because it is powered by the smartphone or tablet when it is connected to the Lighting port.

The weight is only 9 grams.
The size of receiver is 48 by 22 by 7 mm. The weight is 4 grams.
Finally, the dimensions of the charging and storage case are 80 by 53 by 25 mm. The weight is 68 grams.
Battery

The battery life on a single charge is 7 hours. Using a charging case, the battery life increases up to 35 hours.
In addition, the manufacturer says about fast charging support. 5 minutes of charging is enough for 1 hour working. That’s really impressive.
Connection
Finally, let’s connect the microphone to smartphone, and check the mic quality.
The connection process is very simple. You don’t need to install any apps on smartphone.
First, open the storage case, and microphone will be automatically turned on.
Now, connect a receiver to the lighting port of iPhone or iPad.
When the green light on the mic and receiver keeps always on, it means that they paired successfully.
Now, you can open a camera app, YouTube, TikTok or any other app on your smartphone, and check the audio recording.
By the way, the connection between the microphone and the receiver is made through a 2.4 GHz signal. They don’t use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

The charging and storage case is another feature of this mic. It provides up to 35 hours of battery life.
