BULZIN MirrorView

I love this device! It has helped me tremendously when creating my content. My videos are much clearer and look absolutely great!

This device is very useful for someone looking to record for video or audio for podcasts, YouTube, and webinar/course creation. Here are some questions I had.Can it operate without a power cord?Yes. It has a built in, rechargeable battery.Can it be used wirelessly?Yes. If you choose the device as your wireless SSID source (WiFi on your iPhone) and then mirror your phone, then you will see it on your phone. (Note that the monitor also needs to be in mirroring mode. There is a slider switch on the side.) See photo showing the screen-mirror with no cords at all.Why is wireless useful? The devices do not have to be in the same place so you can record a distance away like action footage, you can charge your iPhone while you record and monitor yourself, or you can attach a USB mic like a Blue Yeti to your iPhone while still monitoring- it’s not an either/or situation.What cables does it come with?It comes with 2 cables.It comes with a sharp USBC to USB A cable to power and charge the monitor. (I used one that I already had.) It also comes with a short USB C to USB C device to connect the monitor to your iPhone if it has a USB C connection. My iPhone 12 has a lightning port. And it works with a lighting to USB C cable that I had. It should also work if I added a USBC to lightning adapter with the provided cable. (I did not use either of the supplied cables.)What happens when you use a wired connection?It’s very, very easy to connect this way. You just turn it on and wait a few seconds. Then it will mirror your screen. See photo. ( I also switched the screen mirroring mode to the other side… not sure if this was required as the settings are not readable or mentioned in the manual.)Can it be used with a tripod? Yes! It has a threaded 1/4” hole at the bottom. See pic.Can you mount it to a phone? Yes! See my pic. I am using a MagSafe mount with a cold shoe adapter in the cold shoe port on the monitor.This means it is easy to have a standalone recording set up where you can see yourself. See pic there I am holding this completely wireless assembly; I had not yet attached it to a tripod but hopefully you get the idea.To me, paying $50 for a monitor that shows you that it is not viewing the area behind it instead of you is a much better deal than a $25 reflection mirror because the two can operate a distance from each other, such as a teleprompter mode. Additionally, being able to pick up a tripod with the iPhone and move it to a different area.Do you need to install an app? No. There is a QR code that takes you to an IP address - just like a router’s admin settings does.Do you need the manual? No, not really. The instructions are on screen when you turn the device on. But, reading both helped me to understand how to use it. Now, I shouldn’t need it anymore. I did find the diagrams on the features page to be very helpful to make sure that I had the USB cords connected in the right slot and knew how to power it on.Comments - As you can see from my set up, seeing what I am doing is very important to me. I am using both a mirror and a camera screen to see what is being recorded and to make talking to a camera feel more natural. Along those lines, I like that I can see what the iPhone is recording if I am using it as a camera and not just what should be in frame. Here, I am using it with my camera as a teleprompter. I like that it is a monitor that I can set up once and leave in place rather than having to keep fussing with the setup. I like that it leaves me free to use my iPhone.So, I feel that this device is extremely versatile and infinitely helpful. If I had known about it, I am not sure if I would have bought a camera. But, as I have both, I feel like this really adds the possibility of both a fixed teleprompter setup where my phone is free to use and the opportunity to create a multicam set-up where I can see what is being recorded. If this is not what you are looking for, I hope that this review gives you an idea of what this is and helps you to not fall into the misunderstandings that other buyers seem to have fallen into.Final note - I noted that the wireless mode is limited to 1080p. First, if does not matter at all if I am using my iPhone as a teleprompter. As a camera, there is a debate as to where 4k is needed at all. Some argue that a majority of people are using their iPhone or other mobile devices to consume content rather than a large monitor. This sounds compelling to me. Still, I do like having the option for 4k if wired. But, as this is just a monitor and not what is being recorded, I am confused about this still at this time.

Demasiado bueno como para ser cierto

I got this to help with Vlogging. I have a ring light with a mount to hold my phone (yeah, not the best cam). But at least I have actual mics to get the audio quality better.Anyway, my issue with the phone as a camera is that, once you turn the back of the phone to you to get the good quality camera, you lose the ability to see what you are shooting. You can't get yourself framed up and be sure you are staying in frame. This cures that.First, you pair the monitor to your phone via Bluetooth. Then, pair the provided remote shutter button (looks like a small keychain with a single button. Note, it has an on/off switch to save the battery, so make sure you have it on. The shutter is neat because you can start/stop video recording, or take pics where you are. Overall, installation was a breeze, as long as you know how to pair BT devices.Now, I can mount the bracket that comes with the monitor to the light ring. Then, the spring clip on the bracket opens to allow you to mount your phone. You pair the phone with the monitor, then you are in business. Now, the monitor faces you with the phone held right behind it, with the good cameras (back of phone) facing you. The monitor displays what is on the screen of the phone. So, as you look at the ring light, you can see the camera lens, then right there in the same sight-line is the display showing you what the camera sees. I was very happy with the grip from the bracket and the ability to move the phone to keep it as centered as possible. Overall, good functionality from the bracket. It has a very strong magnetic connection to the actual monitor, allowing more range of adjustment.For the money, I haven't seen a better solution. This is a great value solution to getting much better videos. It is still starter/amateur level, but it lets you create real content before sinking a lot of money into equipment, only to find out it is not for you. That's where I am now. Just starting a channel, so I'll get to get my feet wet and see how it goes.

This is an excellent mini display for vloggers and selfie enthusiasts who want to utilize their phone's rear camera for the best quality video and pictures. This mini monitor includes a phone clip that allows you to mount the display on the rear side of the phone, thanks to a built-in magnet in the clip. The build quality of this display is solid, constructed of aluminum metal. The display quality is decent for its intended purpose: to help you frame your videos and pictures. While the screen quality isn't the absolute best, it's perfectly adequate for framing.What makes this display truly unique is its wireless capability. It connects wirelessly to the phone for easy management. This feature is also fantastic for group photos. You can set the phone on a stand, join the group, and ensure everyone is included while taking the picture using the included Bluetooth wireless control. Another feature I appreciate is the monitor's built-in battery. This eliminates the need for external batteries, allowing you to hold and monitor freely without wires or extra batteries.
