Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2017
It is a great microphone and the price is right for $20 you can't go wrong it is better then all those expensive mic's out there.
In a word, nothing. The specs and performance are identical You can buy by price yet neither provides near professional audio quality suitable for podcast, broadcast or interviewing. The tonal range is adequate yet slightly muffled. That’s not good enough for the uses above, in my opinion.
The long cord can be an advantage if you don’t want to go wireless yet it’s cumbersome otherwise. This unit is indeed an excellent value if good enough is fine with you. Once you compare to a better lav mic, there is no going back. I use the superb Sennheiser ME-2 which works well wired, or with its wireless system that I also own. For less, I have heard good things about the Rode Smart Lav+. Although it costs four times the price of the Boya or Movo, you will get a full and natural sounding tonal range.
By the way, I absolutely love the Boya Cartioid mic which can easily be attached to a mini tripod. It’s the best buy of any mic I own and does delivery pro results!
Sound quality could be better but, for the cost, it's exactly as should be expected.
Cord length is the key feature. Not being able to justify the expense of a good cordless microphone, this choice works fine for my needs.
The bag it came with is better quality than I expected for the price, and the mic seems solid and well-made. The little windscreen can fall off easily, so keep track of it if you don't want to have to get a new one down the road. I know some people complain about the length of the cable (it is much longer than I need for most situations), but I truly don't mind it. I keep it neatly bundled when I'm not using it, and when I am using it I just let out the length that I need and secure the rest of it together. I have not had any serious issues with it getting tangled or in my way while I am filming.
The sound is . . . okay. Certainly not awful - but it's not really crisp. There's a very slight muddle - but not terrible. It's acceptable quality - but the built-in mic on your smartphone is better. So are most of the $50 dollar and higher lavalier and shotgun choices. So if your plan is higher-end video, you should skip this product and spend at least 3x the money on something with a cleaner, sharper sound. (It'll be worth it in the long run.) But if all you need is something for videoconferencing or occasional recording, this is a huge improvement over the sound of your laptop's built-in microphone. So you should absolutely buy it for that purpose . . . .

Das Mikrofon bietet insgesamt eine solide Leistung und erzielt gute Ergebnisse bei der Tonaufnahme mit Smartphones. Die Klangqualität und Zuverlässigkeit sind positiv zu bewerten.
Allerdings stellt die Tatsache, dass die Knopfzellen nicht nachhaltig und nicht aufladbar sind, sowie die Schwierigkeit beim Wechseln, einen negativen Punkt dar. Dies könnte die Benutzerfreundlichkeit und die Umweltfreundlichkeit beeinträchtigen.
Insgesamt ist das Boya by M1 Lavalier-Mikrofon eine gute Option für Smartphone-Aufnahmen, aber die Herausforderungen im Zusammenhang mit den Knopfzellen führen zu einer Bewertung von 4 von 5 Sternen. Eine Verbesserung in Bezug auf nachhaltige Energiequellen könnte die Gesamtbewertung positiv beeinflussen
