For your iPhone 15, there are plenty of wireless mic options to choose from but not all are great in terms of quality or value for money. So, to make that process easier, we have listed the best wireless mics for iPhone 15 Pro.
Content creation is bigger than ever in 2024 and will only continue to grow in the coming years. With such an influx of creators, you must have the best audio gear to stand out from the rest.
Why choose wireless mics over traditional microphones in the first place?
Wireless mics give you the advantage of shooting your video from any distance without compromising audio quality.
Imagine you’re making a video on cooking, and you have to move around constantly. If you have a mic placed in a fixed position, it won’t be optimal as you would constantly need to come in front of it and speak.
Wireless mics allow you to move freely, and speak however you want, even if you have fixated the camera at a certain place. You can also maintain the authenticity of your videos and believe me, viewers love that.
And let’s be honest – moderate video quality is still acceptable for viewers. However, if the audio is bad, they will immediately switch to a video that will provide better quality instantly. But you won’t want that to happen to yourself.

1. DJI Mic 2
- Price: $349
The DJI Mic 2 is easily one of the best wireless mics for iPhone 15 Pro. It has proper noise canceling features which is super important if you’re shooting in a noisy environment.
It comes in two variants:
- 2 TX + 1 RX + Charging Case
- 1 TX + 1 RX
It’s better if you go for the 2 TX + 1 RX + Charging Case version as you would get close to 18 hours of battery life. It comes with both Lightning and USB-C connectors which makes it a great choice for iPhones both older and as new as the 15 Pro Max.
You can also connect it to your phone using Bluetooth, but the audio quality you get out of it is far inferior compared to when you connect it using the receiver.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Includes two transmitters (good for interviews or podcasts) | A bit pricier |
| Intelligent noise cancelling | Receiver is bulky |
| 820 ft or 250m range | – |

It’s not been long since I purchased a DJI Mic 2 for myself. It’s the 1 TX + 1 RX version and if you want, you may check its unboxing from the video below.
Connect an external SSD to your iPhone 15 Pro and you can get the best out of these wireless microphones.
Are these wireless mics only compatible with iPhone 15 Pro?
No, you can connect these wireless mics to any iPhone. For the upcoming iPhone 16 series, you can connect them natively, thanks to USB-C support.
However, if you have an iPhone 14 or earlier, you’ll need a Lightning connector. Thankfully, most of the mics we’ve mentioned in this list come with Lightning connectors, so you have plenty of options to choose from.
And if you fancy connecting them to a proper mirrorless camera, you can do that too.
