    Nice inexpensive desktop mic for remote work
    5 Stars
    Nice inexpensive desktop mic for remote work
    I have anywhere between 4-10 phone calls every day at work, and frequently record tutorial videos or other audio clips for marketing purposes, so the quality of my audio is pretty important. I've gone through a couple headsets with mics, but either had the mic fail or the quality just not live up to my expectations, long-term.I was looking at springing for either a Blue Snowball or Yeti, but decided to start with the Amazon mic here to first make sure that my desk and headphone setup would work with a small desktop mic. I'm pleasantly surprised with the quality of this thing, though, and don't think I'll be moving onto a Blue unless this suddenly fails.Pros:- Easily accessible mute button on top- Very light and easy to move when you want to- Rubber tipped legs make it difficult to accidentally knock over- Sound is clear- Long cableCons:- There's not a lot of flexibility with the legs - you can't position the mic really higher or lower, it's just kind of where it is. It might be too low for some folks if you don't mount it on an arm. I have it on my desktop in front of my keyboard, though, and my natural speaking/sitting distance works well.- The cable isn't a standard micro USB or USB C cable, so if it's too long for you (as it was for me) you have to deal with it. This was a weird one - I was planning to swap in a short micro USB cable, because the distance between the mic and my laptop is very short, but I ended up having to cable tie it all together and hide it under a laptop stand.- On that same note, that non-standard cable is REALLY long, so if you AREN'T putting it on an arm, you're going to be annoyed.All in all, a good purchase and I'm looking forward to using this for many months to come.

    Reviewed in France on October 13, 2022
    Vous cherchez un micro pour votre ordinateur ? Ce micro est fait pour vous !

    Ce micro pour ordinateur est extrêmement efficace ! Je l'ai acheté le mois dernier, je l'utilise pour faire des lives, des vidéos et pour faire des visios. Le rapport qualité prix est présent !

    Tout d'abord, au niveau du design, le produit est simple mais très beau. Il possède un bouton de mute qui permet de l'éteindre. Ensuite, il se branche via USB, il est détecté de suite sur toutes vos applications et jeux vidéo. Il possède un mini trépied, qui le rend utilisable de suite sans frais supplémentaire. Ce trépied est dévissable, ce qui vous permet de le visser sur un autre support de votre choix. La qualité sonore est au rendez-vous, le son est clair, sans grésillements, ce qui rend son utilisation agréable pour vous et les gens qui vous écoutes.

    Le seul défaut que je lui trouve, c'est que le fil USB fournis est assez petit. Il est utilisable correctement, mais pour votre confort, je vous recommande d'acheter un fil plus grand.
