Connect your Boya MM1 to Smartphone (Boya vs onboard Mic!)

Hey guys!

Today I will be showing you guys on how to connect your external microphone to your smartphone. In this video I will be using the Boya MM1 Microphone on my Iphone 6.

The Boya MM1 does not require a battery which is why this microphone is so awesome and compact, a great addition for smartphones and gopros

We will also be testing how it an onboard phone mic compares to an external mini shotgun microphone the BOYA MM1.

For a wired lavalier microphone you can check out my review of the CKMOVA LCM1L

This boya mm1 is a great mic especially for outdoor vlogs.. And very reasonable price 😊 nice review. Support ❤️

[jaypeedelesofficial]

Is it compatible with iphone 6plus? Do i still need to use audio splitter or lightning adapter?tnx👍

[stellaandfluffy]

Thank u for the review i am starting to do my vlog using dat equipment 🤗🤗🤗

[ArthursSimpleLife]

I feel the MM1 just minimizes the background noise. Doesn't really improve audio quality if you have the latest mobile phone. Cheers

Thank you for the tips...I bought it already...

[Mattshakes]

Great video, thanks. Do you think the difference is worthwhile? The sound didn't sound much different except in the wind.

Hi I just bought this Boya Mm1, the manual says it provides the TRRS connector, but how do we differentiate if its a wrong one? (Since u mentioned that they have slight difference)

[RANDassociatesinc]

I have the Boya MM1. I have found it to be amazing and stunning quality for the price. I loved it so much I just got a second one!

Regarding the click issue, yes I'm using the adapter for iphone 7 plus. Iphone 6s does not need an adapter. Both have this issue. I don't think it's the cable because the mic works fine with my android phone. One thing I found out out is with the iphones, if I change the sample rate from 44.1 khz to 48khz in my video recording app, the issue is gone. Which app did you use to record videos?

[FITBASTIAN]

Great video, well made and tested, Thank you

[kelvinfok]

Great video, was trying to see if its worth buying this!

[mattlorilla]

Do i have to use an app for it when it is used in a Android device? Or just sc7 for it to functional in the phone w/o an app?

Hi! Would just like to ask, how would you mount the mic on your phone when you're using it to shoot outside?

[leahannelimjoco]

Hi! Nice review!! Very helpful. Just wondering if I can also use this when I am video chatting thru ipad (zoom, messenger, skype)? Thanks in advance!

I brought the mic back to the shop. Tried 2 other mics of the same model and heard the same popping/ticking. Even tried them on the shop owner's iphone and same issue. I also tried the rode videomicro and heard the same thing. So maybe it's not the mic but the iphone. Maybe some update screws up the mic port somehow. Which ios version are you using?

[Sathish_films]

Short film dubbed voice this mic wrk or not wrk tell me bro

[realityrich]

thank you, so will it work on a modern lg g7? it has 3.5 mm headphone jack

[LoloymeetsHyojinaYT]
