The RØDE Wireless Micro is the ultimate pocket-sized solution for capturing pristine audio with your smartphone, and Rolling Stone agrees!

We’re delighted to announce that our Wireless Micro has been named Best Microphone in Rolling Stone’s 2025 Audio Awards. The iconic publication, globally renowned as an authority on music, entertainment and culture since its inception in 1967, has recognised the Wireless Micro as the microphone of the moment on its annual list of must-have gear, further solidifying its place as an essential tool for content creators and audio professionals worldwide. 

Designed to deliver world-class audio in a pocket-sized form factor, the Wireless Micro is our smallest, simplest and sleekest wireless microphone to date, redefining what versatility looks like for smartphone creators. Boasting an ultra-low-latency connection, broadcast-grade omnidirectional microphone, and an intelligent gain control system, the Wireless Micro provides professional audio quality in any environment.

Available in both black and white, and with versions for either USB-C or Lightning devices available, it comes complete with a super-compact charging case offering up to 21 hours of battery life – perfect for everything from mobile filmmaking, vlogging, and livestreaming to on-the-go interviews, acoustic performances, and remote podcasting. 

Rolling Stone praised the Wireless Micro for its innovation and adaptability, recognising it as a bold evolution of RØDE’s microphone design while still maintaining the brand’s signature sonic excellence. In their official review, Rolling Stone stated: 

“Not only is it small enough to take with you on the go (making it ideal for serious recording sessions or impromptu karaoke parties), but it still delivers the same crystal-clear, silky sound that RØDE’s larger products are known for. Plus, it’s smartphone compatible, making it the ultimate versatile microphone for anyone creating music or content in the digital age.” 

“We are thrilled to see the Wireless Micro recognised by Rolling Stone as the Best Microphone of 2025. As pioneers of the ultra-compact wireless microphone category, this award reinforces what we’ve always known – that professional audio should be accessible to everyone, no matter where they are or how they create. Our mission has always been to empower such creators, and we’re incredibly proud of how the Wireless Micro achieves that vision.”
