Lapel & Lavalier
Lapel and lavalier microphones (the terms mean the same thing) clip onto clothing for hands-free audio, letting a speaker move naturally without holding a mic. Common for interviews, presentations, teaching, TikTok Live selling and vlogging. Not sure which one fits? Read our best lapel mic guide.
What to check before you buy
- Wired vs wireless: Wired lavaliers are simpler and cheaper, plugging directly into a camera or recorder. Wireless systems free the subject from a cable but need a receiver and battery management.
- Single vs dual channel: Interviewing two people at once needs a dual-channel wireless system, not two separate single mics competing for the same receiver.
- Range: Wireless range matters for stage or classroom use where the presenter moves around; check the meter rating against your actual space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a lapel mic the same as a lavalier mic?
Yes. Both names refer to the same small clip-on microphone. Lapel comes from where it is clipped, and lavalier from the pendant necklace early versions resembled. Wired and wireless versions exist.
How much is a lapel mic in the Philippines?
At VMI Direct, wired lapel mics start at ₱499 and phone wireless kits like the XTUGA K9 start at ₱659. The DJI Mic Mini 2 starts at ₱3,359 and the DJI Mic 3 kit costs ₱18,890.
Which wireless lapel mic works with iPhone or Android?
