UM310PRO Alvoxcon USB Wireless Microphone (for iPhone & Android)

I really like this - and I have tried several alternatives, most of which cannot be used with a PC. This one plugs straight into the USB port on a PC/Macbook, and you can monitor the sound from the USB receiver with headphones – or use the headphone output on the receiver to plug into a powered speaker (though this will also need you to plug the receiver into a power bank - it only needs a tiny one. You can also feed it straight into a smart phone with a 3.5mm headphone socket, or for a lightning iphone choose the black and silver version which comes with the right adaptor if you don't already have it. The USB receiver lights up when the microphone transmitter microphone is turned on – and the transmitter itself has a highly visible big blue led on the on-button (rival mikes tend to use tiny LED dots, much harder to check whether on or off). The transmitter is both good looking and compact, easy to clip on with the short mic attached, or if you prefer you can use it with the lavalier mike. And sound is very crisp and in my experience interference free. All in all, a 5 star product. It is handsome, and works handsomely.

I've found this is a very smart, straightforward and user friendly microphone system, able to carry clear sound over distances of up to 30 metres without distortion. I particularly like the 2 mic options meaning that you can either use the transmitter as a hand held device with the plug in mic or conceal the transmitter under your clothing and clip the other discreet wired mic to your lapel. I've not had a chance yet to test the battery capacity but it has remained fully charged so far so I see no reason why it shouldn't fully meet expectations. Prior to purchasing I had a couple of questions which were promptly and helpfully answered by the supplier so whatever the particular application I think you can be assured of a good technical back up service if it's needed.

Good value for the money. Fairy flimsy clips but audio quality is good and good distance covered by Bluetooth connection

Has been using this product for last one month. The sound quality is not great. I get complaints of not being audible. The adaptor that connect to the laptop, standout substantially. and if you are using the adaptor, it looks flimsy. the clip gets stuck on some of your clothes. The Mic does not have a mute button which is really annoying. and the deal breaker the charge, it does not run long. Mine is constantly on charge.

I have found this microphone easy to set up and use and the sound quality is excellent. I've previously used a large microphone and wanted something a bit more discreet that I could use for Zoom calls. I've been using this one for a few days now and the sound quality really impressed me. I like the fact I can clip it onto my belt and move around the room too.

I purchased this mic to use for Zoom fitness sessions. I used with a MacBook Air 2020. It's easy to use and the lapel clip works well. Sound was clear when I moved around the room teaching away from the laptop. Initially I felt the battery life wasn't very long but the seller confirmed it was correct. During the past week I was charging fully and the mic battery would last 45 mins. I have therefore sent it back.

I am really pleased with this wireless mic. We are streaming to YouTube and needed better quality sound and this is ideal. When plugged into the laptop the receiver becomes the default mic for recording / live streaming. You can also monitor the sound quality by attaching headphones to the receiver. We leave the transmitter on the desk and use the short mic, but also included is a mic on a lead that you can clip to yourself and plug into the receiver and roam about as much as you like. You may need to turn up the volume on the transmitter using the switch on the side. Works on android phones using the supplied adaptor. For iPhone/iPad you will need to purchase a USB to lightning adaptor. Very happy, highly recommended.

The Alvoxcon USB is a great product and delivers what promises. It worked well in both Windows/ Mac. The lapel mic extension works fine and elegantly as you can hide the transmitter in your back pocket for a professional look. The 3.5MM AUX earphone Jack in the USB receiver is quite handy as you can monitor the audio in real-time with no delay. I would be great if worked with iOS as well. Once I have more info about the battery life I will update this review.

Excelente producto. Un detalle que quieren tomar en cuenta. Cuando conectan el micro a su 'base', tienen que tener cuidado; en mi caso, se rompió la soldadura a dentro y ya no sirvió el micro después de su primer uso. Lo bueno es que se puede reparar fácilmente con soldar el componente que se desprendió (en una tienda de reparación de teléfono). Es un problema menor, pero sí me asusté ya que el producto es un poco caro. Fuera de eso, el micro funciona muy bien. Lo uso para zoom todos los días. Es sencillo, es plug and play y ya. Se escucha muy bien y el rango es muy bueno. Una muy buena opción para docentes.

Excelente me va genial

For devices like these I always wait a while before reviewing them to really get a feel for them. This review is written a little over one month after having used the mic every week day for work. The mic picks up my voice whether I have it clipped close to my collar or further down my chest. It also comes with its own volume up/down buttons. These buttons are controlled by the mic itself and they don't just simply send a signal to your sound card to turn up your mic volume. For example, you can set your mic volume on your sound card to 100% and still turn the mic up; I find this useful if the mic is too quiet. The lapel clip is comfortable to wear and has a slot for extra clothing to hold your collar in place if you need it. Once you clip it on, it's not moving (and I've been too lazy to take it off sometimes and have even gone running with it on my lunch break.) The mic is angled in such a way to pick up your voice well: it's angled slightly outward. Such a small detail but how many times have we used mics that are angled straight upwards, resulting in bad sound quality? Your voice is transmitted clearly and you will find that you're probably the clearest person on Zoom/Teams meetings! For example, others on the call get asked to repeat themselves quite often and I haven't been asked to repeat myself once. I will also add here that I've been using this mic for a month now in case you missed the first line of my review :). I tend to pace a lot while on meetings and this mic has never broken my signal. In fact I've taken trips all the way around my apartment while talking on it and not once have people said I've cut out (they don't even know I'm having a walkabout!) The wind screen is built well and prevents my p's from popping. It also comes with a spare wind screen should you ever need it. So, unlike competitor products where the wind screen falls off easily, this one is on securely and you can be rest assured it's not coming off unless you mean to take it off. The transmitter clips to my belt securely; the antenna is flexible so even if you're wearing it while sitting down, the antenna will kind of just move out of the way so there's nothing sticking out preventing you from sitting comfortably. If you press and hold the large button on the bottom to start/stop transmitting, the good thing is it doesn't actually mute you from the sound card. Instead, the mic itself turns on and off. So if the mic is not on you can be sure it's not silently listening. I tested this using Teams. When I switched the mic off, the Mute button on Teams still said Unmuted but the mic was off. This is exactly what I like. The battery life is about six hours and takes roughly one hour to charge to get the full six hours out of it. I've been on this mic during a thunderstorm and have been told they can hear the bass of the thunder coming through my mic. I hope that gives you an idea of how good the sound quality is. One of its only downsides is that there's no audio indication of when the mic turns on and off. So if you want to mute yourself, press and hold the large button on the bottom of the transmitter for about two seconds and hope for the best. To start transmitting again, press and hold the button for about half a second. You'll get used to the timings but it does take some guess work at first. The second downside is that while you can talk with the mic plugged in and charging, it does generate interference, and the interference is bad enough to make it impossible to hear your voice. So you can't charge it and be transmitting at the same time or you'll get poor sound quality. I just plug it in after a really long meeting so it doesn't die while we're on those ever so important business meetings!

Delivered reasonably quickly, works just as stated.

Upon unboxing, the system feels lightweight but not flimsy. The receiver and transmitter units are compact, and the lavalier microphone itself is unobtrusive. All necessary cables are included, which is a big plus: a USB-A adapter for computers, a USB-C adapter for modern Androids/laptops, and a TRRS 3.5mm cable for iPhones (via lightning adapter, not included) and older computers. The dedicated monitor jack on the receiver immediately catches the eye as a valuable feature. Pros: Exceptional Versatility & Broad Compatibility: This is arguably the Alvoxcon's strongest suit. It truly works across an impressive range of devices: Smartphones: Seamlessly connected to both iPhones (with a Lightning to 3.5mm adapter, which is standard for iPhones without a jack) and Android phones (via 3.5mm TRRS or USB-C adapter). Computers: Performed flawlessly with both PC laptops and desktops, using either the 3.5mm input or the USB-A/USB-C adapters. Other Devices: Worked well with portable speakers and recording devices that accept a 3.5mm input. This "universal" appeal makes it an invaluable tool for creators who use multiple platforms. Clear and Crisp Audio Quality: For a wireless lavalier in its price range, the audio quality is surprisingly good. Voices come through clear, articulate, and natural-sounding with minimal background noise. It significantly outperforms built-in device microphones, making recordings sound professional. Real-Time Monitoring (Monitor Jack): The inclusion of a 3.5mm monitor jack on the receiver is a huge advantage. This allows you to plug in headphones and listen to your audio in real-time as you record, ensuring optimal levels and catching any issues before they ruin a take. This feature is often found on much more expensive systems. Plug & Play Simplicity: Setup is remarkably easy. Once charged, simply plug the receiver into your device, power on the transmitter and microphone, and they pair almost instantly. No complicated menus or drivers are typically required. Good Wireless Range: I tested the microphone at various distances and found the wireless range to be robust and reliable within typical use scenarios (e.g., presenting in a room, vlogging a short distance from the camera). Minimal dropouts or interference were observed. Compact & Portable: The small size of the units makes them easy to carry in a bag, perfect for on-the-go recording, vlogging, or impromptu interviews. Long Battery Life: Both the transmitter and receiver offer decent battery life, typically lasting for several hours of continuous use on a single charge, more than enough for most recording sessions. Cons: iPhone Requires Adapter (Not Included): While compatible with iPhone, users with newer iPhones without a 3.5mm jack will need their own Lightning to 3.5mm adapter. This isn't a fault of the mic, but an important note for potential buyers. Wind Noise (Typical for Lavs): Like most lavalier microphones, it can be susceptible to wind noise in outdoor environments. A foam windscreen is included, which helps, but for very windy conditions, a furry "dead cat" style windscreen (not included) might be necessary. Plastic Build (Minor): While not flimsy, the all-plastic construction doesn't feel premium. However, this is common for products in this price range and contributes to its light weight. It seems durable enough for regular use. Overall Input & Verdict: The Alvoxcon Wireless Lavalier Microphone system is an outstanding value proposition for anyone needing a versatile, reliable, and high-quality audio solution. Its exceptional compatibility across virtually all modern recording devices, combined with clear audio capture and the invaluable real-time monitoring jack, makes it a true powerhouse for its price point. Whether you're a budding YouTuber, an experienced podcaster, a student presenting online, a professional leading virtual conferences, or just someone looking for better vocal recordings, this Alvoxcon system will dramatically improve your audio quality. It's user-friendly, performs admirably, and offers features typically found in more expensive kits.
