NOTICE: In the Hollyland app there is a setting that shows two levels of denoise, a weak and a strong setting. In my testing I couldn’t tell any difference between the two settings and nowhere on the website or in specs do they mention two levels. That is why I didn’t mention it in the video. Just an fyi

Am I overreacting about the coiled cable? 😅😅 | Which system do you like better?

I got my DJI Mic Mini coupe days ago and I love it. If you shoot on a DJI Action 4, action 5, or pocket 3 the mic mini is a no brainer.

Wow didn't know the 'mixed format' makes so much difference! It makes the DJI sound so different (and better) than its raw format. Definitely going to check out your mixing video!

Also, the mixed version for the DJI seems to sound way better than the Hollyland

[alexcooper]

The sound quality is truly impressive, the DJI Mic Mini makes voices sound so much clearer and brighter!

Mini is king when using dji ecosystem specially the action 5 blue tooth connection and full control of mic. A win if your a dji fan boy.

Dji Best case overall can carry everything you need
The only advantage for m2 is it came 1st
interms of sound its subjective many will like mini or m2 thats debatable but both are king of their own kingdoms hahaha

No need to compare the M2 to the Mini, cuz the M2 has a major design flaw that I'd pointed out.
I bought one myself and on first unboxing, the metal plate at the back of the M2 has already fallen out due to the powerful suction of the magnet.
The metal plate only secured by some kind of hot glue like glue. Nothing lock the metal plate in place, so eventually the plate will fall out from the M2.
Well, u can use some AA glue to put it back but you won't be able to tell when will it happened again. You may lost your M2 if it drops without you even notice.
The Mic Mini on the other hand has a clip on and the magnet is sticking to it. The clip is pretty solid without any moving part so no chance you'll lost your mic.

Hollyland larkM2 sounds like a piece of crap . I bought it because of the hype by dishonest youtubers, but i returned it the next day and got my full refund .

In my opinion I think the Hollyland raw file sounded more brighter and the DJI had a more warm color. I'm a professional sound engineer & I actually use the Hollyland com system & one thing about them is that it's all plug & play systems which integrates into most existing systems plus it's for the most part optimized to the best operations with little hassle. Great video!!

Hollyland Lark M2 sounds crisper which I really appreciate.

[frakshh]

Great video! I went with the Lark M2 since it was on sale for $111. Too good of a deal to pass on for an amateur video creator!

The integrated design is so convenient in the DJI Mic Mini.

[danielacompagnone]

My Lark M2 broke after 3 months. No, thank you.

[LaloRacer]

How does the RAW audio quality compare between the DJI Mic 2 and the Mic Mini? Wondering if there is a major audio quality difference between the two. This is a superb video. 🔥

[judahtunes]

at the end of the day, they both sound clean

[GoogleMapsFoodie]

You have to share your audio presets, you made it sound so professional

*HOLLYLAND LARK M2 IS STILL THE KING OF THE JUNGLE*

*Por Ahora El M2 De Hollyland Es Más Práctico, Más Versátil, Mas Barato y Tiene Mejor Sonido, Por Eso Seguirá Siendo El Rey De La Jungla*

[GeorgeG]

The DJI Mic Mini is excellent in both portability and sound quality, DJI's audio solution is indeed convenient.

[RonaldErira]

Woow, bro, so good video, every details. Thank you, from Colombia

[zoneea]

The hollylands sounded way better, your voice felt more forward and and less boxy. IMO
