*I have the Lark Max and the Dji Mic 2. I like the Mic Mini but that fact that I can't use it as a Transmitter/Recorder, so that's a No No for me, BUT it's good to see someone compare this to something OTHER then the Dji Mic 2 as these AREN'T the same Mics. But you can buy the Mic Mini stand alone which is cool and with the Hollyland Lark M2 you can Do that also but Idk if it's the same but I'll stick with my Mic 2. But I do love Hollyland Products and I think they are severely underrated*
@ well said man thx for leaving this comment - they r not in the same category so no need for comparison :) mic 2 is deff better than mini but again ;) it depends on ur needs :) i feel all those youtube influencers and fitness people need to switch to mini since its smaller and less heavy ;) and yeah lark is great
Wow, the DJI Mic Mini's audio quality really blew me away! The clarity and noise cancellation in the video are outstanding, definitely worth every penny.
@@Theodore_theG noise cancellation is deff better now than in this video since they released the new firmware update yesterday ;) so yeah - really good audio
the dji case is much better. You can fit all the accessories in it unlike the hollyland. I had to buy an earbud case to hold hollyland stuff cuz i didnt like the pouch they had.
thx for honest feedback man, i was thinking should i remove it or not - but yeah - its still relevant and honestly you can see it on my instagram post more to hear if its better or not - but again..thx for that feedback good to know
@@Jaredstthomas honestly havent tryed rode micro ( if thats the new new one ) i feel its too big for me and weird shape :) but lark m2 is a strooong choice as well - all depends what kinda sound u like
honestly ive been using Lark for almost a year now and it is amazing, it all depends if price is an issue then go with lark, lark is also smaller and has smaller iphone attachment so thats that - if you have any of dji products, osmo action or so on, go with dji :D
Oh no... I just bought the Lark M2 as it felt more worthwhile as compared to buying a single DJI mic to pair with my Pocket 3. Now that this is out... I feel so tempted to use this as it says it can connect directly to the Pocket 3 (without having to plug in the USB-C). I wonder how they both sound for recording music. Honestly, DJI Mic that comes with the pocket 3 really rocks. The sound quality is fantastic. I find that the hollyland Lark M2 doesn't sound too good for music. Now I'm tempted again... Crap...
if you got the dji mic with your osmo, then keep that, its probably bigger and better than mic mini, i would say keep using that one then :) no need to get the new one unless you want a smaller option :)
that is very true, lark is deff smaller in profile so when you put it on subject or yourself its smaller :) and also as you said - stickers, that magnetic necklase - its deff inoivation and different than dji, this is just same same but different :)
It's really great that you came with this test, but why on sound quality you speak through the microphone ? nobody buy small microphone like this to use it like you used on test .. and also why you put background music on when you make microphone sound quality test ...
well said, thank you for the genuine comment. some people do hold it like this ( youtubers, fitness influencers and so on, so wanted to showcase it like that ) and also i was switching it alot so i was just lazy to put it on my shirt honestly :D - as far as background music - ur right should have done it without - learned that now - for next review :D = thx again for feedback
Can either one record internally? Sometimes I clip mics onto people at weddings and don’t always have a camera rolling to sync the audio to a video file… currently on DJI mic 1 and wanting to upgrade to something
question honest Pick Lark M2 or the Mic Mini im using the Neewer CM28 its a good mic but dont have a lot of bass audio is clear but seems like its being recorded from a Android or Iphone 15 pro camera mic which its not bad
if budget is important then lark m2 for sure, its cheaper, smaller profile and comes with many accessories. If you do wanna test out the dji mic mini i would say order and you can always return if you dont like how it sounds.both are good options, and very very similar as far as audiio
@@JustDushawn ok which has the base base i do use my action 3,4 and will be buying the pocket 3 i do use my phones at times and my DSLR so thats more the use for the mics
You didn't really do any Hollyland comparisons. Hollyland is a lot better. You didn't do the outside comparison, charging, etc. Hollyland is cheaper and records just as well if not better.
we compared the size, sound and functions overall, i personally think the sound is a bit better on dji but as far as usage and sizing, hollyland takes the win - smaller case and better noise canceling. and it is cheaper :), to each its own
hmm, great question, if you wanna use any mic with pocket 3 and action 5 i would suggest go with dji mic mini since its in the same family of products so you will have more options via dji mimo app, as far as iphone - i would still go with lark since its 1. cheaper, 2. smaller to carry and usb plug is way smaller than micmini
@@JustDushawn Thank you for your response. Could you please tell me if it’s possible to adjust the recording level on the Holyland Lark MII when using the basic version for iPhone? Can you control the voice recording level?
@@JustDushawn Guys, could you please recommend the two best video editing programs for a MacBook Air? Preferably free ones, where minimal color correction is possible. Thank you in advance!
It's unfair comparism tbh. First please get raid of the music at the background. Second, you attached dji mic mini on your shirt which is below your chin as compare you holding hollyland lark MK II on your hand and speaks directly into the mic. For sure it will sound much richer and deeper tone. Maybe you could upload another short video just a quick speech for both mic attached to your shirt. Without the music at the background of cause.
Goood luck for your work bro!! I am exactly searching this thing and find your video. Thanks for the content Shout out from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 keep it up & many moree to go 🤍
i would honestly use LARK for that because it is small enough for you to put it under your watch on ur hand ( i did that for some unboxing ) so it will be easyer for you to record ASMR like that
I've just discovered you in RUclips and probably thanks to this great comparison. I'm about to buy any of them and I think I will go to the Hollyland because USB C receiver looks to me quite less big and more discreet indeed. What I don't know is.. does this Hollyland also bring the deadcats for the wind?
@@HunterDreams hey man, thx for following and leaving a comment, hope you like the video - yeah deff the usb-c receiver is waaaay smaller and discreeet so thats a good option. And yeah with hollyland you get alot of accessories and deadcat comes with it as well yup, also you will get stickes, magnetic necklase for mic and so on, so you cant go wrong with any of these 2 choices :D best of luck - hope you enjoy ur mic
why don't you go in the street and record the video with your phone? we want to ear a real life situation for the audio, not studio controlled enviroment
i will do that on the next one, i had a tight deadline for the video so i had to record it quickly :D i did go outside a bit but now with the new firmware i can test out the noisce canceling opiton nicely
Just what I needed. Thanks. Bought the L2 2 days ago. Not sure I like the audio it but love the size. Will keep testing it. Had one interview with iPhone 16 Pro Max and it kept on clipping the audio.
@@timjenkins8943 yeah it can clip sometimes i know i used it as well - good thing about dji and phone usage is that you have dji mimi app and you can turn on some options so its more “smarter “ as far as cliping goes

bought both
@@PrestoMoto02 that is the best way to see what you want and what works for ya :D epic

u are right, the mic 2 deff has amazing noise reduction
Amazing little mic! Love it.
It really honestly is - very good release
the dji case is much better. You can fit all the accessories in it unlike the hollyland. I had to buy an earbud case to hold hollyland stuff cuz i didnt like the pouch they had.
@@redesignedlife777 so true - agreed that is a very big selling point
Thanks for the comparison first I’ve seen on RUclips !
@@timmyvall2795 my pleasure - thx for watching - yeah i figured thats what i would wanna compare it too since its very similar in size and price👍🏻
dam this was the review i was looking for but i wish you didn't have background music during the audio samples - couldnt hear it as clearly :(
thx for honest feedback man, i was thinking should i remove it or not - but yeah - its still relevant and honestly you can see it on my instagram post more to hear if its better or not - but again..thx for that feedback good to know
Right, why put music over the recording for an audio test?

DJI mic mini > Lark M2 > Rode wireless micro
@@Jaredstthomas honestly havent tryed rode micro ( if thats the new new one ) i feel its too big for me and weird shape :) but lark m2 is a strooong choice as well - all depends what kinda sound u like
My Opinion Lark M2 > DJI mic mini > Rode Period The End!
I think the Lark has more sibilance, while dji has more low end. I personally like the Lark better
hey, they are both great :) so use what you like for sure
I love how it connects directly to the phone without a receiver! Thanks for the video Dushawn
@@sherifmokbel yeah - hopefuly they fix the dji mimo app connectivity :) we will see - thx for wstching
Can lark m2 be connected to phone without receiver?
@@marek8902 no it cant
just checked, they fixed the dji mimo connectivity so now you can use it as is via app as well
Why would you have background music while reviewing mic sound? D:
@@itsmarianamusic i know haha my mistake for suree
everybody saying hollyland Right now on Amazon it's $90. that's a great price for two mics I'm getting that one
that is true, you cant beat that price, 100% go for it if the price is crucial :)
Great that you compared it with the HLM2, but I did not hear the sound different very well between those two because of the background music :(
i know im sorry about that, appreciate the comment tho
First video I’ve seen right on time before Black Friday too Thank you !!
@@datboystevenlive glad it helped ;) btw hollyland is on bf deal as well so yeah👍🏻😇but quality is deff there - thx for watching
Having some trouble deciding, as in this video the DJI sounds much better, and in some videos the Lark M2 sounds better. Do you have any tips?
honestly ive been using Lark for almost a year now and it is amazing, it all depends if price is an issue then go with lark, lark is also smaller and has smaller iphone attachment so thats that - if you have any of dji products, osmo action or so on, go with dji :D
@ Okay thanks!
You can buy the mic mini transmitter only, with the lark you have to buy the whole thing.
Can you reupload this video without background music?

yeah and its on discount for holidays for sure :D
Nice review but for a mic sound review... You should have removed all background music to allow us to hear it as it is.. so we can compared the sound
@@GatherFaithMinistries i totaly agree with u :) it was my fault
Thanks for the review👍

great video but why would you put bg music on a video comparing two mic quality...
ask me something i dont know haha :D i know man i screwed up :D
Can either one record internally? Sometimes I clip mics onto people at weddings and don’t always have a camera rolling to sync the audio to a video file… currently on DJI mic 1 and wanting to upgrade to something
yeah..no :( only dji mic 2 has internal recording, for that you will need eather mic 2 or rode wirless pro

A sound quality test for a mic and a background music? how weird is that? And we don't hear properly the differences
I have dji mic2, I will wait until dji make wireless mic with out receiver , just using wireless connection or bluetooth .
That is smart decition man honestly - that should be the next best thing :D we shall see
Doesn't Mic2 already do that?
DJI looks thicker???
it is, as far as profile goes hollyland is deff smaller
Thanks for the video !
@@romhuch thank u for watching👍🏻🙏🏻
I was going to get rode wireless mini but I came across hollyland

Lark M2 sounds better. Sound more natural to me.
they can both sound natural if u tune them a bit
M2 sounds wayyy better
it is good i agree
Thank you for the great video! it just would be more helpful to turn off the background music when testing the sound
