A huge part of making content for a YouTube channel or really most social media platforms is being able to record videos in good quality and not just the actual video but also the audio. The RØDE USB-C Vlogger Kit is an all in one fairly affordable solution that comes with all the tools you need to produce high quality videos no matter what the environment challenges you with.

You get RODE's most popular accessories to help you get the best out of your Smart Phone and in this case my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra uses a USB-C interface and so I went with the RØDE Vlogger Kit USB-C Edition of this kit but you can get it in iPhone compatible version and also Universal version that simply use a mini jack for Smart Phones that support analog inputs.

My RØDE USB-C Vlogger Kit came with the following accessories:

• Three-position tripod for hand-held or static use
• Gimbal tripod head for accurate camera positioning
• All-metal mount with rubberised grips for phone 65mm to 85mm wide
• VideoMic Me-C directional sound pickup to reduce background noise
• WS9 Deluxe Windshield (DeadCat)
• MicroLED light offers over four hours operation on a single charge
• Clip-on diffuser with eight coloured filters

In this video I unbox the RØDE USB-C Vlogger Kit, show you everything that comes inside the box and then test out how it works in a number of shooting environments using my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra so you can decide if the RØDE USB-C Vlogger Kit really improves the video and sound rather than simply using the built in microphone and natural lighting.
