There are a tonne of gadgets out there that are great audio recording devices. But, there is nothing quite like the Rode Wireless Go. Or, so we think - after having used it for quite some time now. One of the first things that struck us was the sleek and snazzy size. It truly lives up to its title of being ultra compact (weighing only 31gms each).

The transmitter has an in-built omnidirectional condenser capsule and can be used as a clip-on mic or with a lavalier mic. Capable of transmitting crystal-clear, broadcast-grade audio via 2.4GHz digital transmission to the on-camera receiver, the sound quality is commendable. It is, therefore, a very handy tool for film-makers and Vloggers, who seek to create professional content.

Rode claims that the devices can be used at a range of 70 meters apart, which we put to test. The result was exceptionally clear transmission up to a whopping 90 meters (20 meters in excess of the officially stated range). At about 100 meters, the transmission became choppy, though, which isn't any complaint to state - on the contrary the range we experienced was greatly appreciable.

While Rode claims that the devices offer about 7 hours of battery life, our tests indicate no more than about 5-6 hours. But, that is hardly a dampener. A set of c-type USB cables (included in the package) help charge the batteries. Minor irritants notwithstanding, such as a pair of obstinate fur-type windshields that refuse to stand their positions, the devices itself are of exceptionally good build quality, having been fabricated in Australia.

A feature of convenience includes a small screen on the transmitter that indicates battery life, pairing, and sound output. Perhaps the most notable of all features is that the devices can be paired within a few seconds and be put to use on the go, making them very easy to use and operate.

Overall verdict - exceptionally good performance and build quality and a highly recommended tool for anyone seeking to create professional video+audio content.
