Let me being with the Amazon review mantra: "I usually don't write reviews for products but..."OK, now that I got that out of the way 😂 , Let's talk about this Lav mic!I felt compelled to write about it because I expected another L from Amazon. I bought the Pop voice mic, and maybe mine was a dude but it didn't work. Wouldn't work on my mac or my phone. A complete waste of money. I decided to give this one a shot before I bit the bullet and purchased a guaranteed good (but pricey) mic like the Rode Plus.I was confident due to the reviews but I've been fooled by cap on this app many times. People hyped for a product that ends up being trash. For the price, it was worth another attempt to add a quality lav mic to my home studio setup.The packaging and product is as advertised in the pics you see. I didn't have trouble installing the battery into the power section. The packaging is clear and separates all the parts so you're ready to use it out of the box.I tested this on my Macbook Pro using the USB attachment (I needed an adapter because this isn't USB-C), On My MB Pro using my Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 third gen (there's a 1/4 adapter included too) and on my iPhone. I can report that the sound is clear and the lav just works! It's sensitive and picks up background noise, as I could hear my heater on faintly, but it's not bad enough to detract from your audio. Worst case you can eliminate those minor sounds in post-production.The attachments allow me the versatility to use it on any camera and laptop. I didn't test in my Canon camera, but if it works on a Macbook (which also requires the Camera button to be ON to use it), then Im sure it can work for a DSLR. I tested this in Quicktime on the Mac, on the Camera and Voice Notes app on iPhone with no issue. Ditto for the Focusrite. It's great to have gain control on the audio interface so I can adjust it.The mini Camera/Smartphone power pack has a little weight, but it also has a belt buckle attachment, so think of it like a wireless lav mic receiver. it's easy to hide and shouldn't be too cumbersome.If this had a gain control option, it would probably cost more money, but it would also be even more perfect. For a lowe price, you get high-end quality sound that's serviceable enough for your Zoom calls, iPhone recordings and anything else you need to do that requires dope audio. Highly recommended.P.S. - it doesn't work if you want to send a voice note in the messages app and I didn't test for FaceTime, but those shouldn't be your primary or even secondary use case for a lav mic. If y'all want an audio test let me know and if enough request, I'll add it.

Nicely designed, decent sensitivity, seems fairly sturdy. Seems to work best with the USB adapter on my PC. Ther handy storage bag keeps it neat when not in use.

The microphone works as advertised, used to replace a poor microphone attached to my video camera; also useful with my cell phone and, using the included adapter, with my PC as well. My only issue with it is the battery... it is very difficult to insert between the spring and the base. I had to have a friend with a magnifying glass and tweezers do it. That could use a re-design.

This mic works exactly as advertised. The sound source is clear and easily distinguishable and the mic seems to be well built. I use it for Microsoft Teams meetings and the one person no one has to ask to repeat themselves is me! It also comes with a really nice wind screen. You do have to fiddle with the wind screen a bit to get it to stay on properly (for example, I twist mine while pressing down.) After that, the wind screen will stay on really tight.I love the chord length. It also comes with its own chord-tying thing so you don't have a lot of cable if you don't need it.The USB adapter comes with both a mic and headphone jack. I use my laptop's jack for the headphones though since the sound quality from the USB sound card has a lot of treble but no bass, so the sound quality isn't too good. This doesn't hinder the mic though, and I bought this for the mic.It's nice to no longer have to wear my over-the-ears headset anymore for really long Teams meetings at work! It's definitely worth the price. You don't need anything more expensive than this mic. It does the job really well.One of the features that stood out is that it has an on/off switch, so now I can mute myself without pressing mute in Teams. I prefer the hardware to control my mute status so this is a very nice plus!The mic is omnidirectional. I get the best sound with having it clipped to my shirt collar as opposed to near my chest, but I'm sure it'd do just fine if clipped there as well. The clip is strong and keeps the mic in place--and this is coming from someone who wears the mic for eight hours a day. It won't move at all once you clip it.One thing not listed as of this writing is that this mic does require a battery. I don't remember which one now, but if you do plan to use it with the USB adapter you will need a battery.

This started as a good mic. Good price and was exactly what I was looking for. It was easy to hook up, and though the cord length seemed a bit excessive to me, I just bundled it up so it was out of the way. I made sure to secure all the cords and toggle so that the cord wouldn't stress, fray or twist, since I was going to be using it only at my desk and not walking around with it.And it worked pretty well at first, but after using it for a few weeks, my sound started to cut in and out randomly whenever I was on a call. It was never anything bad enough that toggling the on and off couldn't fix and I thought maybe it was a problem with my internet.Then the mic started to crackle rather horribly at random or whenever I tried to use the toggle, even though I wasn't moving at all. This was unfortunately just a few days after the month return time expired. Technology is funny like that.Changing the battery out did nothing, and I may as well have just tossed the $20 I spent on this mic out the window apparently, or at a better microphone in the first place.What a disappointing piece of junk now.
