Solid Microphone

I recently purchased this microphone and while it's not perfect I'm happy with it. It's a good line-in mic, but there are a couple of things to be aware of before buying. I haven't had any problems with the build quality, but the stand is very light and the arm that holds the mic up looks like it could break quite easily. As long as you be careful with it it shouldn't be a big deal though.
One problem I had (using Windows 7) was that the quality was very poor when I first started using it. I highly recommend going into the Sound control panel and shutting off Echo Cancellation in Microphone Effects as that severely limits the sound range. Just shutting that off made a huge difference in quality. Hopefully that helps you if you're having that problem.
Other than that I'm very satisfied with the microphone. Sound quality is very good for the price and there's no setup at all: just plug it into a line-in jack on your computer and you should be up and running.
What's great about it: Great sound quality for the price
What's not so great: Cheap build quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

Simple, Cheap, but Works

Microphone that works. No frills. Nothing special. I use it because my microphone in my laptop doesn't work. Works fine for any video chatting. No issues with making it work on a windows 7 laptop. Pretty much a plug&play. Minor adjustments might be needed in the sound control center.
Two Minor issues: (1) the actual structure is flimsy. A drop onto a hard floor might break it. (2) you have to hold it a few inches from your mouth for it to work well. Not really a problem for me, but it might seem unprofessional, if that's important to you.
Overall, it works, it's inexpensive, and that's really all i needed.
What's great about it: gets the job done; inexpensive
What's not so great: might look a bit unprofessional, not a strong structure.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I really love this mic. The sound from it is loud and clear. The only problem is the cord is a little short. I still love it overall. :)
What's great about it: Sound Quality is very clear.
What's not so great: Short cord.

Totally Worthless and waste of money

You have to lean way in to get your lips right up to the mic for it to even pick up your voice. When I first hooked it up, I did a test recording and could just make out my voice, even when I put my voice right up to the mic. Then I realized that I hadn't changed the recording source and I was still using the mic on my webcam, and that is 8 feet away. I changed the source and realized that the webcam picked up my voice better than the mic that was 8 inches away. I did all the adjustments I could in control panal with no improvment.
Totally usless and a complete waste of money. I would have given it zero stars if they'd let me.
What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Inconvienient to use, barely picks up your voice.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

its not really a bad mic. to buy. every thing about it is good except you have to have your mouth about 5 in to talk. I like how it rotates 360 deg. and up and down.the mic part that comes out, the only thing i didnt like about that was its not flexible.
What's great about it: theres no softwhere needed to install
What's not so great: have to have your mouth up close to mic. thats why i gave it a 2
I would recommend this to a friend!

For the price, you shouldn't expect top quality hardware. You plug it in, it works, and that's pretty much the end of it. Be aware, though, that the cable is fairly short (4' instead of the usual 6'), so it may not fit your particular setup. The sound quality is decent, as long as you turn on the mic boost, and the range is decent (Works well from 1-2 feet away). The physical construction of it, however, is about what you'd expect for this price. The stand is sturdy enough, but the swivel is weak (Vertical only, and started to slip within a couple months for me). The microphone itself is easy to break (Knocked to the floor once, and the arm cracked), but if you play nice with it, it should last long enough for the price.
What's great about it: Cheap, just works
What's not so great: Short wire, not durable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It is a simple plug and talk system. All you have to do is just connect to your desktop or Laptop and start using the product.
It picks up what we speak even from a distance. The look and feel of the product is excellent
I would recomend for any one to buy.
What's great about it: Picks up what we talk even from a distance
What's not so great: the cord wire could have been a little longer or UBS connection would be better
I would recommend this to a friend!
