- Works beautifully.
- This microphone works as well as professional mics that are much more expensive. I use it for my podcast, and the sound quality is much improved over the macbook's internal mic. More reviews
- Big quality performance on the cheap...
- I purchased this product to use with Remote Classroom Instruction. As an instructor I can't be tethered to my PC with a wired headset. This microphone cost less than wireless headsets and performs as well.
As with all USB devises, the installation is practically non-existent. We have used this constantly for 2 months and have had not problems.… More reviews
- Interesting and functional design, but with flaws
- It is a good design, but I find myself not liking it as much as others seem. It looks cute, for sure, but is also quite obviously flawed.
Pros:
(1) Convenience and mobility. No need to wear a headset or handhold a mic.
(2) Sound quality much better than built-in microphones.
(3) Built-in soundcard (A/D converter) with quite good quality.… More reviews

- This is a really nicely designed travel microphone. I'm really impressed at the way it swivels around to sit either on top of a laptop screen or at any angle on a desk. And the sound quality is great too. I use this for making web videos and it's the best gadget I've bought in ages.… More reviews
