Insta360 has introduced a fresh line of wireless microphones that blend the eye‑catching e‑ink covers of the recent Mic Pro with the convenience of expandable microSD storage, all at a lower price point. The standout feature remains the customizable e‑ink display. Each button on the mic can show a variety of Insta360‑themed doodles, but users can also upload their own images to reflect a brand logo, YouTube channel, or personal style. The display can be set to solid black or matched to clothing colors, keeping the product visually distinct from the many generic wireless mics on the market.
The new microphones retain the Mic Pro’s NPU‑based processing, which helps suppress background noise during recording. They can link directly to most of Insta360’s current camera lineup—including the Luna Ultra, Luna Pro, X6 and GO Ultra—and capture audio at 48 kHz without needing a separate receiver. A single receiver can handle up to four microphones and is compatible with the Mic Pro, meaning owners of the older system can reuse their existing hardware. The receivers appear identical to those bundled with the Mic Pro.
The key differences lie in the hardware layout. While these are the first Insta360 mics to feature a microSD card slot, they do not include the Mic Pro’s three‑mic array that offers directional sound pickup. Internal 32‑bit float recording is available only when a microSD card is installed, a useful option for live recordings in noisy environments where the expanded dynamic range can rescue audio quality.
Pricing starts at $80 for a single mic. Bundles that add a receiver are priced at $140, and a set that includes two transmitters, a receiver and a charging case costs $250. All bundle prices undercut comparable Mic Pro packages. The base mic ships with a button magnet, a clip‑on windshield and a carry pouch, while the mic‑receiver bundles also include a USB‑C phone adapter.
