  Samsung "Live Buds" were gifted to me for Christmas. In combination with the Note 20 Ultra Pro Video mode, you can 'blue tooth' the microphone to take long distance selfies talking to the camera. Probably they would function like a narration tool that records more of the sound of your voice than you walking while you film your trail.  I sought to test them in three different ambient noise environments with this video.  You will need to set your volume fairly high. In fairness, I did speak in conversational voice: https://youtu.be/SlDyVcF2rD8
