Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice

BOYA BY-V2 is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 6,700, a two-transmitter wireless lavalier kit with an MFi-certified Lightning receiver for iPhone and iPad. Each unit is brand new and sealed. The BOYA BY-V2 pairs automatically the moment the receiver goes into the phone, sends sound up to 50 metres over 2.4GHz, and runs about 9 hours on one transmitter charge. Each transmitter weighs just 9.5g and charges through its own USB-C port. Come and see it at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, in the heart of Nairobi CBD.

Built for mobile journalists, YouTubers, small business owners and university students across Kenya, the BOYA BY-V2 turns an older iPhone into a two-person recording rig. Phone mics catch everything in a room, so a seller filming a product review in Industrial Area can end up with forklifts louder than her own pitch. With the BOYA BY-V2, each speaker wears a transmitter close to the mouth and the Lightning receiver feeds both voices straight into the phone. Students at the University of Nairobi and JKUAT can record group presentations, project interviews and campus vlogs that sound close and clear.

Where most Nairobi electronics shops push generic Lightning mics with no certification, Mascom International stocks the BOYA BY-V2 with its MFi-certified receiver and a 6-month warranty. Customers across Nairobi tell us the 9-hour battery is what wins them over, because a full day of filming passes without a recharge. At Mascom International, we're seeing first-time creators start with the BOYA BY-V2 because it costs far less than case-equipped kits yet still records two voices. Test the BOYA BY-V2 at our counter, or order it with pay-on-arrival delivery to any town in Kenya.

Common Questions About the BOYA BY-V2

What is the BOYA BY-V2 price in Kenya?
The BOYA BY-V2 costs KSh 6,700 brand new and sealed at Mascom International on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. That buys two transmitters, the MFi-certified Lightning receiver and a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects. It sits KSh 4,300 below the BOYA Omic-D, which adds a charging case for KSh 11,000. You can pay on arrival, by cash or Lipa na M-Pesa, wherever we deliver in Kenya, so there is no risk in paying before you see the kit.

Does the BOYA BY-V2 work with iPhone 15, 16 and 17?
No, the BOYA BY-V2 does not fit iPhone 15, 16 or 17, because those models use USB-C instead of Lightning. It works with Lightning iPhones such as the iPhone 14, 13, 12, 11 and SE, and with iPads that still have a Lightning port. Owners of USB-C iPhones or Android phones should look at the BOYA Omic-U, which Mascom International stocks at KSh 11,000. If you are unsure which port your phone has, send us a photo on WhatsApp and we will check.

BOYA BY-V2 or BOYA Omic-D: which suits a Lightning iPhone better?
Both kits fit Lightning iPhones and record two people, so the choice comes down to budget and charging habits. The BOYA BY-V2 runs about 9 hours on a single transmitter charge and costs KSh 6,700. The BOYA Omic-D gets about 5 hours per charge but adds a case that stretches it to 15, and it captures a wider treble range for KSh 11,000. Choose the BOYA BY-V2 for value; choose the BOYA Omic-D for all-day events away from power.

How long does the BOYA BY-V2 battery last, and how fast does it charge?
Each BOYA BY-V2 transmitter holds a 95mAh battery that lasts about 9 hours and recharges in about 2 hours through its USB-C port. One morning charge covers a full working day of interviews or classes. When KPLC cuts the power, a power bank or a laptop USB port can top the transmitters up. The Lightning receiver has no battery; it draws a small amount of power from the iPhone, so start sessions with a well-charged phone.

Can the BOYA BY-V2 cope with wind and street noise in Kenya?
The BOYA BY-V2 uses omnidirectional mics, which pick up sound from every side, so traffic on Tom Mboya Street or Ngong Road will reach the recording. Turning on the selectable noise cancellation lowers steady hum such as engines and generators. BOYA does not list a foam windscreen for this kit, so on breezy days in Naivasha or along the Mombasa coast, face away from the wind and clip the transmitter just under a jacket edge. For seated interviews indoors, switch noise cancellation off to keep voices natural.

Is the BOYA BY-V2 good for TikTok and YouTube Shorts on an iPhone?
Yes, the BOYA BY-V2 suits TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts filmed on a Lightning iPhone. It pairs automatically when you plug in the receiver, so there is no app or setup menu to learn. Its 20Hz to 16kHz frequency response covers speech well, which is what short-form videos need. The 50-metre range lets you film wide shots with the phone on a tripod. For music covers with cymbals or high vocals, a kit with fuller treble response is a better choice.

What does MFi certification mean on the BOYA BY-V2?
MFi certification on the BOYA BY-V2 means its Lightning receiver is built to Apple's Made for iPhone standard. In plain terms, Apple has approved the connector, which lowers the risk of an accessory-not-supported warning after an iOS update. Many cheap Lightning mics sold around Nairobi skip this certification. For you, it means the BOYA BY-V2 should keep working reliably on your iPhone across software updates. Ask us to show you the certification mark on the box before you pay.

Who should buy the BOYA BY-V2 and who should skip it?
The BOYA BY-V2 suits students, mobile journalists, sales teams and new creators who record speech on a Lightning iPhone and want two wireless mics at a modest price. Skip it if you own an Android phone or a USB-C iPhone, since the receiver will not fit; the BOYA Omic-U covers those devices. Skip it too if you shoot long events away from power and want a charging case, where the BOYA Omic-D is the better fit.

Technical Specifications

Sound Pickup
  • Two omnidirectional transmitters — each mic hears sound from every direction, so speakers can turn their heads freely while talking.
  • 20Hz to 16kHz frequency response — covers the full range of speaking voices, with a slightly softer top end than studio mics.
  • 80dB signal-to-noise ratio — keeps electronic hiss low, so quiet voices stay clean in the final recording.
  • -42dB sensitivity — a measure of how readily the mic turns sound into signal; it suits normal speaking distance on a collar.
  • Selectable noise cancellation — switch it on to reduce steady background noise, or off to keep natural room sound.
  • Dual-channel transmission — two speakers record at once into one receiver, which suits interviews and co-hosted videos.

Compatibility and Wireless Link
  • MFi-certified Lightning receiver — built to Apple's Made for iPhone standard for iPhones and iPads with a Lightning port.
  • Fits iPhone 14 and earlier — iPhone 15 and later use USB-C and need a different receiver, such as the BOYA Omic-U.
  • Automatic pairing — plug the receiver in and the transmitters connect on their own, with no app or menus.
  • 2.4GHz wireless transmission — a licence-free band shared with Wi-Fi, so there is no frequency to set or license.
  • Up to 50 metres range without obstacles — walls and crowds shorten it, so keep a clear line of sight to the phone.
  • 6dBm RF output power — a low transmit power that saves battery while holding a steady link at normal distances.

Battery and Charging
  • 95mAh battery per transmitter — a small cell sized to keep the transmitter light on clothing.
  • About 9 hours of use per charge — a full working day of recording without topping up between sessions.
  • About 2 hours to recharge — plug in over lunch and the transmitter is ready again for an afternoon shoot.
  • USB-C charging port on each transmitter — charges from the same cables used by most Android phones and power banks.
  • Receiver powered by the iPhone — nothing to charge on the phone side, though it draws a little phone power.

Build and Size
  • 9.5g transmitter weight — light enough to clip onto a T-shirt collar without pulling the fabric down.
  • 52.22 x 25.23 x 19.75mm transmitter — about the size of a matchbox, easy to tuck beside a lapel or pocket edge.
  • 6g receiver weight — sits in the Lightning port without putting strain on the connector.
  • 43.92 x 24.7 x 9.3mm receiver — a compact plug that adds little bulk to the bottom of the phone.
  • Clip-on lavalier design — the transmitters attach to collars, pockets or bag straps for close voice pickup.

Inclusions and Setup
  • Two transmitters — one for each speaker, each with its own battery and USB-C charging port.
  • One Lightning receiver — the MFi-certified plug that collects both signals and passes them to the iPhone.
  • Plug-and-play setup — no app download or pairing steps stand between you and the first recording.
  • Works as the iPhone's external mic — apps that record from the phone's audio input pick it up once connected.
  • Ready out of the box — charge the transmitters, plug in the receiver and start talking.

Package Contents

The BOYA BY-V2 box holds the two wireless transmitters and the MFi-certified Lightning receiver, ready to pair as soon as the transmitters carry a charge. That is everything needed to record two voices on a Lightning iPhone or iPad. The transmitters charge over USB-C, so a cable and charger you already own will do the job. Mascom International also stocks USB-C cables and power banks if you want spares in your filming bag.

Warranty

The BOYA BY-V2 comes with a 6-month warranty through Mascom International, covering manufacturing defects under normal use in both transmitters and the receiver. Bring any claim, along with your receipt, to our service desk at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, and our team will assess the unit there.
