NEEWER CM28 : Wireless Lavalier Mic aka Fulaim X5 : First Look / Review

If you bought one, let me know!!
**UPDATE 2.0** : I did some research and uncovered the origin story of the X5 / CM28, it's not a massive conspiracy, just interesting timing for a product in this space.

The Middle Aged PC Noob is back! With my initial thoughts on the ‪@NeewerOfficial‬ CM 28 Wireless Lav Mic kit.
I LOVE IT .... and there's many reasons why....The pre-order price made it a no brainer , but is it a better option than splurging for the ‪@rodemic‬ Rode Wireless GO II ? I have no idea, I didn't buy that one. But we'll take a look at how THIS microphone looks, feels and sounds.
I was fighting a stupid HUM on my condenser mic the whole time, I LEGIT could have used the CM28 mic's to record my studio portion of this video and it would have sounded better....

Good video - Nice presentation - so many KZfaq presenters talk at a thousand words a minute and you don't. You take a really measured and considered approach to what you are telling your audience. That made me subscribe and like. The content is really good too - 'in field' tests, bit of humour (peeing dog). I click off so many review videos because they talk too fast and skip over the things I ACTUALLY want to know. You don't - keep up the good work. BTW - just bought these on Amazon as a result of YOUR video, having watched about a dozen that didn't really tell me what I needed to know.

Ah! So Neewer = Mailada = Fulaim!!! I have a Fulaim X5 and love it. I prefer to have the TX inside my shirt with windmuff on. I often use the noise reduction and don't notice drop in voice quality but I'm no audiophile. I think the audio is better with the deadcat always on! I use it on my iphone12pm and CinemaP3. I've only tried the on board recording once and wasn't impressed. Using a wired lav with it (PurplePanda) I felt the audio was better with the PP plugged directly into the iPhone. My cons: user manual printing far too small to read haha. LED screen far too dim to read outside but after multiple trials I won't bother making adjustments after setting it up. Blessings

Also I have had a bunch of Neewer products (both hobby and semi-professional) and contacting support for replacement parts that have broke or became lost has always been a good experience so far. Hopefully that’s true with this as well.

Well done, audio sync issue aside, excellent review. If I understand it correctly you can basically take just one mic with you, record your sound and add to it to your edit correct ? 4GB storage in each mic then ? That 4GB storage is not in the receiver right ? Or does it have its own 4GB as well ? It sounds well and the price is right. If that is the case I found my mic. One more irrelevant question, I'm going through a process of finding a new pair of glasses, I like yours, which ones would those be if you happen to know and are willing to share ? Thank you.

@GeneralBuckles 9 ай бұрын

Thank you. 1 : Audio Sync.. I think I'm finally seeing this issue many of you have pointed out. I'm recording straight to OBS through a Rebel T6i DSLR via capture card. Could this be a settings issue? Bit rates? any suggestions welcome. 2: Some of the documentation implies that the RECEIVER can record as well... I haven't tested to confirm that yet. But I will. 3: YES, you could just grab the mic, take it with you and record stuff without anything else. 4: The glasses are Columbia , about 5-6 years old.. don't know if they're sold any more, a quick google indicates they might be the COLUBIA 3003 . They are a bit heavy though...I don't like them as much as my OAKLY's seen here---> kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p5uqqsRj3LSpd4E.html

@@GeneralBuckles It's only when you are in studio (green screen) that the audio is out of sync, should be an easy fix in the timeline of your video editing software, not sure what your workflow is so it is hard to tell what happened. Not familiar with OBS, but even if OBS recorded your audio out of sync (looks like latency issue), you should be able fix that in your editor. What do you edit in ?

So you have to extract the audio from the mic's or does it record to the video on any device you use? If you were using a mirrorless camera for instance, is the audio on the recording or do you have to add it in post? Thanks.

@GeneralBuckles 9 ай бұрын

Sorry no, it always feeds through the receiver to whatever device you have it plugged in to, so your dslr will record the audio, but as an OPTION you can also record it locally on the mic… and then just pull it off later. The audio on the camera will be a single track of mixed audio from both mics, while the recording on the mic will just be that persons audio.

@mokisan 8 ай бұрын

A small tip I personally prefer the mic to be on the collar. The reason being that it picks up more of the vibrations from the throat and it also has a bit of a chin shadow (under the chin) Again this my preference as someone who likes it a bit bassy. But many prefer it where you put it as with that you get a lot of the highs. Great review btw!

Quality difference in the final product? Probably but that greatly depends on the user and the use case. You can buy the most expensive, high-end gear and not know how to get the most out of it... so the final product is "meh".... you can also have a Pro use some Mid equipment and make a BANGER. If your end product is youtube videos like mine , there might not be a noticeable difference , especially if people are just watching on their laptops or phones... if the output devices can't do high-end gear justice , your money will have gone to waste.

How do you actually download your audio onto a laptop or I pad ?

@GeneralBuckles 5 ай бұрын

You plug a USB-C cable into the mic, and the computer sees it like a thumb drive... all the audio files you've recorded are on there.

I think for me (pro) I’d prefer the new rode wireless bc of them being a microphone company instead of a “3rd party” me too vendor. Also ride’s 32 but recording seems like a win win. Even the go2 are more capabilities.

@GeneralBuckles 9 ай бұрын

Well yes, though some people don’t want to spend that much $$$ on decent sound. But to each their own. What’s a “me too” vendor ? Haven’t heard this term in that context before.

This performs very well and is considerably cheaper. Check out some DJI reviews to compare specifics … if you’re a hard core audiophile DJI may have some particular attributes that matter to you.

Ok, Calvin...you've inspired me.... I'm INSENSED.. I've gone down the rabbit hole on FULAIM & NEEWER.... it's SO bazaar . I've heard people describe NEEWER as someone who just slaps their name on other products but you're right... it's bloody identical.... so I've reached out to both companies... we'll see if they respond.

@GeneralBuckles 9 ай бұрын

just tested it. I'm afraid it's not possible. Not enough room. Also , looks like there's metal contacts on the inside top of the lid that need to touch the mic's to initiate the charging , so the muff would block that.

Yes, audio definitely out of sync. Good sounding though, and video footage is also very nice. I use the Comica Vimo C wireless mic. Your review was very thorough and an enjoyable watch minus the audio sync issue. 😎👍🏻👍🏻😎 (Looks like your audio was in perfect sync when you were outside for the sound testing segment and when you went back inside, however when you were back in the studio - out of sync again. 🤷🏼‍♂️) (through it all you’ve earned a new subscriber because I’m relatively new to this YiuTube stuff too. 😎)
