DJI wireless mics are so popular on TikTok they keep selling out. Here's how to find them in stock.
If you've been on TikTok lately, you've probably spotted the DJI Mic Mini or the DJI Mic 2. If you haven't noticed them, go ahead and do some scrolling before returning here. You saw it, right? All of Chit's co-workers use one, as does the "Do it lady" man himself. And if it's good enough for Chit, it's good enough for us.
DJI (literally) launched onto the creator scene with epic drones. These days, DJI is a creator-approved brand that makes not just drones but super-portable cameras too, like the DJI Osmo Pocket 3. And now thanks to the TikTok creators and YouTubers we spend hours watching each week, DJI is synonymous with wireless microphones.
In fact, these wireless mics are now so popular that it's hard to find them in stock. As of this writing, the popular DJI Mic Mini bundle, which comes with two microphones, a receiver, a charging case, and wind muffs, is sold out at Best Buy, DJI, B&H Photo & Video, and other retailers. With a retail price of $169, it's low in stock at Amazon, and only from third-party sellers.
Why are the DJI Mics so popular?
Mashable Tech Editor Timothy Beck Werth recently tested the DJI Mic Mini bundle while testing the company's pocket gimbal camera and smartphone gimbal, and he had a good experience. "It's just easy. If you've ever been on video and had to wrangle with an annoying lavalier mic cord under your shirt, you know why a wireless option is so appealing. And the audio is good enough for professional purposes. Just plug the receiver into your iPhone, and you're good to go. I wouldn't use it for a full-on TV production, but for social creators and YouTubers, it's very handy."
As we said, the DJI Mic Mini is absolutely everywhere — except in stock at Amazon or DJI. Of course the top-selling creator mic would sell out often. It seems as if Amazon is having a hard time keeping up with the demands of creators lately. But if you're lucky, you can find a few models in stock at Amazon, either sold as single mics or bundles. And if you're really desperate for a DJI Mic 2, one is included when you snag the Osmo Pocket 3 bundle at Amazon, FYI.
Here's where to find the DJI Mic Mini and other DJI wireless microphones in stock. In addition to the options below, you can try your luck at each of these retailers:
DJI Mic Mini bundle
Why we like it
It's what all the cool kids are using, and the DJI Mic Mini bundle comes with everything you need to join them. The bundle includes two microphone transmitters, one receiver, a charging case, four windscreens, two clip magnets, a carrying pouch, and a few extras like cables and adapters. In total, the $169 retail price is a great option when you need to record crystal-clear audio.
Each DJI Mic Mini weighs just 10 grams, so it's lightweight and won't tug on your clothes. Plus, each mic can get up to 48 hours of battery life with the charging case, so you won't have to worry about a dead mic while you're in the flow of creating.
DJI Mic Mini
Why we like it
While the popular bundle is hard to find in stock, DJI does have the regular Mic Mini in stock. This option comes with the essentials you need to get started: a transmitter and receiver. So while you can't mic up an entire webshow cast, you can start recording audio for yourself.
DJI Mic 2 transmitter
Why we like it
Can you talk to the camera for six hours? Because that's how long the DJI Mic 2 will keep going on a single charge. With intelligent noise-cancelling, this DJI mic is perfect if you only need one transmitter. Of course, DJI tossed in all the extras like a windscreen, magnetic clip, and carrying case. The transmitter also comes with 8GB of internal storage, which works out to about 14 hours of uncompressed audio.
If you prefer the black DJI Mic 2, please note that it's sold from a third-party seller on Amazon. This seller has a 100% positive rating, but always be cautious when buying from third parties. The Pearl White colorway option is sold by Amazon.
DJI Mic 2 bundle
Why we like it
If you'd like to get the DJI Mic 2 wireless microphone with some accoutrements, then opt for this transmitter plus receiver bundle, which is available at Amazon (and sold directly by Amazon). We wouldn't be surprised if this too goes out of stock, so shop accordingly.
