DJI Mic promises cable-free studio sound in interview microphones. DJI is best known for its drones, like the DJI Mini 3 Pro, but the company also manufactures microphones for content creators and others who need to record sound in the field.

Now, DJI is expanding its range with the DJI Mic 1 TX + 1 RX, which is a pair of wireless connected sound receivers and transmitters. They work with both digital cameras and smartphone recording, or for sound recordings such as interviews or voice-overs. The receiving unit (RX) and transmitter (TX) are already paired and have up to 5.5 hours of battery life with a maximum range of 250 meters.
