BOYA BOYAMIC 2 Wireless Microphone Review
The BOYAMIC 2 isn't playing around with its touted set of features. Standouts include the 'AI-powered noise cancellation,' generous multi-device pairing, and 32-bit float capture. This is clearly a product targeting the big players in the space, with BOYA pulling no punches on the spec sheet. How does it perform during real-world testing? This is my review.
First, let's talk about the 'AI' noise cancellation. I'm always skeptical of companies throwing 'AI' into their spec sheet, when there isn't actually any AI involved. With the BOYAMIC 2, BOYA says that its noise cancellation is trained on a vast number of samples, learning to remove unwanted audio. It sounds too good to be true, but it works impressively well. For those looking to record in noisy or unpredictable environments, BOYAMIC 2 delivers where others fall short.
The BOYAMIC 2 also has 32-bit float audio in its arsenal. I love to see this on the spec sheet, as this range is perfect for recording anyone and anything, no matter how loud they whisper, speak, or shout. For interview situations, especially in untreated or chaotic environments, 32-bit can legitimately save the day.
Also there to help save the day is the automatic gain control, limiter, and safety track, all of which combine to offer a level of insurance. You hope that you won't have to use them, but in a pinch, they can ensure critical recordings remain usable.
Also worthy of a shout-out are the displays. The receiver's AMOLED touchscreen stands out with its clarity and responsiveness. This makes it easy to monitor and adjust settings.
For big projects, the multi-device support for two transmitters and four receivers also stands out. The receiver has 8 GB of onboard storage and battery life of 24 hours — when paired with the case — helps avoid a lot of potential headaches.
The main highlight of the BOYAMIC 2 is sound quality. As a microphone, that's a pretty enormous win. Combine the rich vocal capture with the excellent noise cancellation, and you've got a superb solution in even challenging scenarios.
While there are many big victories for the BOYAMIC 2, I do have two very minor nitpicks. First is the build quality. While I feel that it has improved over the first version, it still lags behind competitors. With that said, for the price, BOYA has done well.
My other gripe is the included instructions. These could use some polish to match the quality of competitors. It's a small thing, but for BOYA to be compared to the bigger brands, it's an area that deserves focus.
Disclosure: Review sample provided by BOYA.
At $200, the BOYAMIC 2 offers a compelling mix of features and performance. It delivers strong sound quality, effective noise cancellation, and useful tools for recording in unpredictable environments. While there are a couple of small areas for improvement, the overall experience is impressive for the price. BOYA has clearly aimed high with this release. For creators on a budget, it's a very solid option worth considering.

Owned by Google, Fitbit Versa 4 is Now Available at an All-Time Low as Amazon Clears Out Stock
Fitbit is now owned by Google following its acquisition a few years ago, and it has significantly improved its software and products to be the top brand among everyday users looking for a reliable fitness smartwatch. The Fitbit Versa 4 is currently available on Amazon at an all-time low price of $149, down from its list price of $199, and offers a substantial 25% savings for a limited time. See at Amazon Premium Fitness Features The Fitbit Versa 4 integrates premium fitness features with smart features in a polished and slender body. It has a bright 1.58-inch AMOLED display covered with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 for strength and clarity of vision. The device is water-resistant up to 50 meters so people can wear it when they swim or in damp conditions without fear of damage. The aluminum case and elastic strap provide a secure fit for wearing all day long. It really offers a complete fitness-tracking functionality: It has an onboard GPS and GLONASS to track pace and distance correctly without having a phone on one's person. Its users can choose from more than 40 exercise modes including HIIT, yoga, strength training, and running along with auto-exercise detection so that no workout goes unrecorded. The watch also includes 24/7 heart rate monitoring with high or low heart rate alerts to keep users in their target heart rate training zones. The Active Zone Minutes motivates users to stay in their own target heart rate zones, enhancing the effectiveness of workouts. Fitbit Daily Readiness Score which is included with the additional six-month Premium membership makes personalized suggestions to train harder or take a rest day based on recovery. Combined with the Cardio Fitness Score (VO2 Max), the user can utilize these and optimize training for cumulative improvements. Versa 4 also monitors blood oxygen levels at night and during high-altitude training, and skin temperature changes to detect trends that affect health. What's more, it boasts a personalized Sleep Profile, sleep stage percentage breakdowns (light, deep, and REM), and a Sleep Score to allow users to understand and improve their sleep. Its smart wake-up alarm also wakes users at the optimal point in their sleep cycle for better mornings. Furthermore, the watch also includes stress management functionality such as a daily Stress Management Score, guided breathing, and mindfulness content to promote mental well-being. In addition to fitness, the Versa 4 also seeks to improve daily life by making functions like on-wrist Bluetooth calls, text messages, and app messages possible. There is voice response and quick reply for Android users, and Fitbit Pay and Google Wallet enable effortless contactless payments. The watch is also compatible with Amazon Alexa for voice guidance and Google Maps for directions, so it's an all-around companion to workouts as well as regular activity. Battery life is great, with over six days of daily wear time per charge, which removes the frustration of frequent recharging. Combined with its light weight (about 15% lighter and 10% thinner than its predecessor), the Versa 4 is comfortable and easy to wear for prolonged use. Don't miss out, this is a deal similar to last Black Friday's one. See at Amazon

The Samsung Galaxy S25+ is free with this AT&T trade-in deal
Carrier deals aren't always bad. Sure, you're locked into a longer-term commitment than you would be with an MVNO, but if you're used to staying with one company for years, there are benefits. Carrier discounts are a fantastic way to score a premium flagship smartphone for less, and if you catch one at the right time, you could even pay nothing. The Samsung Galaxy S25+ is an excellent device, and given its position in the company's lineup this year, I think it's the sensible choice for most people. AT&T wants you to pick up a Samsung Galaxy S25+ for free. You need to trade in an eligible phone and stay on an AT&T unlimited plan for 36 months, but if you were going to do that anyway, it's an excellent chance to save money on one of this year's best. I know the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is getting all the attention for being thin, but the Galaxy S25+ isn't exactly a thick smartphone. It's only 7.3mm thick and weighs only 190g — it's a joy to hold in your hand. It's also durable, with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the front and back, and an aluminum frame. The Galaxy S25+ features a gorgeous (and manageable) 6.7-inch AMOLED screen that refreshes at 120Hz. Samsung nailed the displays on this year's crop of Galaxy phones, and if you enjoy the saturated Samsung displays of old, you're going to love what you see on the Galaxy S25+. You won't be lacking in horsepower with the Galaxy S25+. Its Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset is precisely as advertised, with snappy performance and better power efficiency than I expected. I can get a full day of use and then some on a single charge from the phone's 4,900mAh battery. Camera performance is excellent, with sharp, crisp images and deep contrast from the phone's triple sensor setup. I wish the phone had the new 50MP ultrawide lens that the Galaxy S25 Ultra enjoys, but I can't complain. Of course, software is the centerpiece of this year's Galaxy S25+. I still don't understand the functions of Now Brief, but the Now Bar on One UI 7 is proving useful. I love using it to get sports scores and help with turn-by-turn navigation on Google Maps. In addition, it's hard to beat 7 years of software support and updates, meaning your Galaxy S25+ will get new features for years. All told, it's an excellent smartphone, and even better if you can pick one up for free.
