LOOYUANCondenser Recording Microphone, 3.5mm Plug Mic for PC, Broadcast Microphone for Singing, Gaming, Computer, Desktop, Laptop, MAC Windows, Online Chatting, Podcast, Skype, YouTube

a surprisingly good quality mic for the price, had it for over a year without any issues, clarity is decent, I use it for meetings and gaming.

This was the only desktop mic I could find that would plug and play with a Sony RX100 M7. It has the 3.5mm TRS connection. All other mics had a usb connection or a usb+3.5mm that you had to connect through the mic headphone jack, which created a frequency hiss. This one worked with no issues. Sound is good. Background sound is minimal for a condenser mic. Still looking for something higher quality, but if you want it for online use it is a very good mic. Plus you have no other options except lapel mics.

It's can be hard to find a microphone with a 3.5mm jack. Everything seems to be USB these days. This model is a good choice for someone who wants a basic 3.5mm microphone. I won't try to rate the sound quality because I don't have a high-end microphone to compare to. It gets the job done.I also like that the microphone has hardware on/off switch. You can turn it completely off and not worry about accidentally un-muting your microphone at the wrong time. That's a nice added feature, in my mind.There are two negative points, though. First is that the setup instructions are nearly useless. It took a while to figure out how to get the screen attached in front and how to use the stand. I'm not sure I've done either of those correctly, but it works. The second is that the tripod is very light and flimsy. It's too easy to knock over. Even angling the microphone down will cause the whole stand to tip.But it's cheap and it works adequately. Overall, I'm satisfied with my purchase.

There is quite a bit to like about this product. I will be using this for streaming on twitch. Twitch.tv/TristopherRobin515Here’s the likes: the assembly was very simple and easy which made it very nice. It’s very straightforward and honestly I only looked at the picture on the box, I didn’t need the introductions. It gives a very professional look, and if you speak directly into the circular muffle it picks up your voice perfectly. I believe this microphone is perfect for just chatting on stream or recording your voice to go over gameplay for YouTube. The only issue I had was if you are 8-12 inches away from the circular muffle your voice is barely heard. Other then that I had no issues. I highly recommend this product for any one trying to be a streamer or for YouTube.

TL;DR - a complete waste of both your money AND your time! Poor connectivity, poor quality, poor sensitivity, poor documentation, bad deal all around.Details: There are so many things wrong with this microphone that it takes a while even to enumerate them. The sound quality is clearly inferior to the iPhone 6's built-in one. The set-up is very complicated and the manual is completely unhelpful. The advertised iPhone connectivity is a lie: modern iPhones do not support a wired 3.5mm connection, while this microphone does not connect to the older ones. After wasting money and time researching and buying adapters, I gave up on LOOYUAN's promised iPhone connection. The only device to which I managed to connect this, ahem, "product," was a laptop (the process was also not intuitive by any means) but then the sound volume and quality was terrible. I had to practically bite the microphone to get any competent response to my voice. Then there is also an annoying background ping (I first assumed this was somehow related to the location, but then I tested it out at several others and the ping remained). This very audible ping was as loud as my own voice.Conclusion: It is baffling how this microphone ended up with 4-star reviews. Amazon Basics has a much better and more serviceable microphone that costs only 10 dollars more. LOOYUAN needs to be paying you to buy this. Unless you have nothing to do with 30 dollars and half a day of your time and enjoy frustration, please do yourself a favor and NOT buy this, ahem, ... "microphone."
