Pristine sound, no clipping; the automatic gain works well.🔋 Battery performance has been solid; I’d say my personal usage matches Rode’s purported runtimes. I do like charging hub instead of just a split cable, though I wish a charging case was included instead of requiring a separate purchase (more on this later).📱 Connectivity is versatile, and I thought I’d primarily just use the TRRS, but have been using the USB-C connector now that the option is available to me — definitely appreciate how the receiver can function as a USB audio interface when needed.💰 My key contention is with Rode’s product cannibalization. Primarily, Rode already has an identical kit, the Rode Wireless PRO, except it comes with lav mics and a charging case, for (at the time of writing), around $20 more. If you wanted to purchase these accessories for the Go III, it’d be about $100. It also has timecode capability, whereas the Go III does not. It’s a little baffling, and particularly hard to justify why you would get the latter.Overall, it’s really solid hardware at a peculiar price point. Really not sure what Rode’s going for with this kit, but if you’re ignoring the price, it performs well.

The media could not be loaded. The RODE Wireless Go (gen 3) has a good sounding built-in mic, but not quite as good as the RODE Wireless Pro's built-in mic in my listening tests. For times when I will use the built-in mic, I will opt for the Wireless Pro. But with the Wireless GO 3 I use external plug-in lavalier mics that sound just as good when they're plugged in to this kit.The receiver (Rx) and transmitters (Tx) are really easy to use and come paired from the factory. The receiver clearly shows the wireless signal strength and the audio levels from each mic. It's also easy to switch audio output mode from Merged, Split, and Safety by holding the two buttons on the side.I usually use the USB-C output to send digital audio out to an iPad and then use the 3.5mm analog output on the Rx to monitor the sound with headphones. There's a separate volume control on the receiver to adjust headphone listening volume without affecting the digital audio levels.The onboard recording on the Tx units is a great safety feature for important recordings. I like that I can manually start the recording remotely on the Tx units by pressing the RODE button on the Rx unit. This is a great feature to start remote recording so that I don't have to ask the talent to do it or to go to each person and press the button locally on the Tx units.The battery life is also great on these units. They easily last for hours, and I never have to worry about it when I'm recording 1-2 hour long podcasts.The included windscreens are great for outdoor recording to minimize wind noise.Overall I think these are a great value considering the build quality and features of the kit. My only advice would be to go for the Pro version if you want the better built-in mic sound quality. External plug-in mics sound the same to me on the Go 3 and the Pro.

These are a 3rd generation so they have been out there for a while now. Good sound quality as always, functionality is great. I have not really used the internal recording much but when I tested it it was OK.Battery life has been good for me.Voice clarity has been always great on all rodes I've had in the past and these are not the exception.

Item was already opened, not sealed. Everything works fine for now, but I payed the full price for a new item, not for an opened box. Sadly I had to travel so I had to keep it.
