Compatibility
BOYA specifies compatibility with smartphones, DSLRs, consumer camcorders and PCs through the appropriate 3.5mm connection. Modern USB-C or Lightning devices without an analogue 3.5mm input may require a compatible audio adapter; buyers should confirm their device's microphone-input support before ordering.
BY-MM1 vs BY-MM1 AI
The original BY-MM1 is a passive 3.5mm cardioid microphone. BOYA's newer BY-MM1 AI is a different product with USB-C, app control and AI noise cancellation, so those newer features should not be attributed to this listing.
FAQs
Does the BY-MM1 need a battery? No. BOYA specifies battery-free operation.
