its amazing to see rode getting smashed in this comparison. i must say anker is giving it a good fight. personal preference but dji for me.

Loved this review! Thanks for comparing all three. I was dead set on DJI but preferred the shape of Ankerwork. I have a theory that no matter what you have a problem with, there's an American man who has created a video about it! 😅 Lo and behold I found your review. Thanks for making it so watchable by standing still mid-frame in Wes Anderson fashion as you tested all 3. I've made my choice. Ankerwork it is!

@bellazella how were you liking the mics? I'm thinking of getting them for work

@umbertoaguiar Год назад

Thanks for your review. I am very curious about this mic but the name Anker on the front of the mic ruins it for me. I couldn't possibly use it in an interview to be broadcast . It would create a problem . TVs don't do free marketing/merchandising. It's also no good if the shooter just wants a cleaner look with no names on the screen. I think it's a big mistake that many companies are making because they are limiting the use of their mics to non professional productions only or whatever people do with Rode, Anker mics. The DJI name is more discreet and maybe it would be acceptable. I thought to put the clip on the front would be an option seeing that the mic is on the top of the 'button' but the clip also has the name Anker on it! Maybe you can use the mic without the shield with the name on it? Even then, I've just found out something that makes a mic pretty useless for any serious work: The magnetic clip. So how are you going to interview a woman wearing a dress? Are you going go ask her to pass the clip all the way under her dress and then connect it to the mic? This set up is worse than using wired lavaliere mics. It's walking backwards. I have Anker cables.They are super fast. But I will pass on their mics. I am sorry but Ankerwork mic is a really bad choice.

@boystobusiness 10 месяцев назад

you can easily cover the name with black sticker or something that still looks professional

@umbertoaguiar 9 месяцев назад

a black band-aid will look really tacky and even less professional than the name on the mic@@boystobusiness

@Blackhawkae69 7 месяцев назад

@caffeinatedfunctionality 2 месяца назад

Could likely 3d print a new cover since they are interchangeable

@onlysublime Год назад

there is a magnetic option for the rode called the magclip. they also have a new charging case as an option.

@benjhaisch Год назад

Sure but they’re $20/each for the magnets and $80 for the case, so an extra $120? It’s a great system, but not a $420 system imo.

Hello. tell me please, in ankerwoks m650 you can connect to the transmitter ,,line in,, instead of a lavalier microphone, so that there is an interlocutor in one channel, and music in the background in the second? And when connected to a smartphone, can I charge the smartphone through the receiver?

@modellbahn_H0 10 месяцев назад

After the device was delivered yesterday, the enthusiasm is completely gone today. After the firmware update (recommended in the description), the device can no longer be started. And I urgently need it for a production tomorrow.

@WickedSheepLP 10 месяцев назад

does the M650 act as a soundcard when it is connected to a PC by USB-C Port?

@Louise_D_Myers 2 месяца назад

gaffer tape can cover that hideous billboard logo up; you could also print out a sticker of your own brand at some print shop for the size of this mic and stick on there. Good to see competition, Rode has been asleep at the wheel without much innovation in recent years, they had had strong domination of the market until DJI entered. Now, we've also got Anker, which is a good brand, Holland, Godox and more. I'm in the market for a wireless mic and I had so many options on amazon uk that I couldn't make a decision. Compare this to a couple oof years ago when you either had Rode or screaming at your camera.

@AliColak Год назад

Would you go with DJI or Ankerwork. I’m stuck in the middle

@benjhaisch Год назад

I’ve been using the Rode for the last year or so and have been swapping between the DJI and Ankerwork for the last month. They’re pretty similar in a lot of ways, sort of just depends on if you like the transmitter styling and if you want to save ~$100. After using both, the Ankerwork would probably get my money just because it’s $100 less if you use the coupon code. I know it’s hard to trust on a sponsored video, but the DJI isn’t $100 better imo.

@AliColak Год назад

@@benjhaisch Say no more! ROI is better on anker for 100 less I'll try it out!

@RyanBorzoo 8 месяцев назад

Can you attach the anker work on the rode mic holder?

@benjhaisch 8 месяцев назад

I don’t have the Rode version, but the Godox one I have works, so it’d assume it would too

@spyder000069 Год назад

"Ankerwork software to offload recordings" Why would you want to have to use software to offload recordings? Sounds like extra unnessary steps. I don't see usb on the transmitters so I am guessing they have to either interface through the charging system or transfer across wirelessly to the rx module. Either would be a pain.

@karsten24 3 месяца назад

The problem with all these systems is, that you can´t change the internal batteries. So it seems the concept is to buy a new one every 3 years, when the batteries are near to die?

@ÁzsiábaSzakadtam Год назад

Thanks for the review but looking at this thing I would never use even free. Rode is square and clumsy and the round shape is even worse. It would be nice to see comparison of a budget mic and dji with the similar form factor.

@mykeljewell Год назад

Quick question. Did you change the thumbnail? Or am I crazy?

@benjhaisch Год назад

Haha! I did. These types of videos are usually low performers at first, but gain traction over time, but I thought the first thumbnail was too busy.

@mykeljewell Год назад

❤ agree totally

@iannelson4293 Год назад

any old magnet will do

@Gadgets20 Год назад

The implementation of the onboard recording is so dumb. It needs to be connected to the receiver for the internal recording to keep working. If you leave the receiver in the case or turn it off while the internal recording is going on, it will automatically shut off after 1 minute. They need to fix this. Sometimes people just want to use them as a standalone recorder

@lessismore9142 Год назад

Let's hope for you they even have upgradable firmware... Benj must have missed this during his exhaustive review.....

@BenPatrick1555 Год назад

@denverwilliams3005 2 месяца назад

Anker products is the best.

@markwiemels Год назад

The noise reduction in the Ankerwork was actually useable, at least in the low mode. I think that’s the “next level” for these mics, really tune in the processing of the audio, so it sounds great in camera. I would bet that most of that people that uses these mics, don’t process the audio, aside from adjusting the gain in editing.

@benjhaisch Год назад

100%. I do with it had a slightly more subtle option, but it’s still pretty impressive for them to do it within the system live.

@allboutthemojo Год назад

@benjhaisch got a question. I know these are not made to record electric guitar, but I was curious to know how do you think it would handle recording a midrange heavy audio, since the guitar lives in midrange? There are plenty of guitar specific mic but I'm looking for something super small and wireless

@andreyb3685 Год назад

@jasonlau8944 Год назад

AnkerWork M650 seems a big winner here, especially for the sound quality, for me the rode audio better more natural, Dji audio very electronic not so natural, while the ankerwork audio are in between rode and dji, sound little like Dji but more natural sound like rode, good work! plus changeable Tx color cover, more alternative magnetic clip, larger touch screen, a more affordable price, I definitely will buy this. But just one cons, I hope there will be plain cover without ankerwork logo, cuz the brand logo are too big.

@tree3111 7 месяцев назад

in my opinion, sound quality is a rather subjective feeling. I have been using DJI mic for quite some time, and I find its sound quality to be the most comfortable and natural sounding.

@arielestulin9706 Год назад

Ankerwork is some generic Chinese company who have obviously ripped off the DJI design. The problem with all these companies is they are great until they are not when you need support or something stops working. Also suspect is the fact all tech youtubers have released the same glowing review of the Ankerwork at the same time. There's a reason the industry standards are the likes of Sennheiser.

@benjhaisch Год назад

Fwiw, Ankerworks is under Anker from my understanding and they’re a fairly well established brand. Sennheiser is great, they just don’t make anything like this right now.
