Picked up this mic as was replacing my old headset with one that did not have a dedicated mic. Quick and easy to install (simple USB to PC) and placed on desktop.
Mainly used for discord when speaking to friends whilst online gaming and comments i've had back are amazing about the sound quality vs previous mic. Doesn't need any real tweaking to cut out background noise. 10/10 and would recommend for the value over any other mic.

Amateur- friendly
This is my first microphone I have ever bought, and intend to use for recording podcasts. I was going to invest in something a little pricier first, like the snowball, but I saw good reviews for this so wanted to give it a go. Keep in mind that this review is from the point of view of someone who does not have other microphones to compare it tooPROSNice, sleek and compact design.Great sound quality. It could obviously be better but it is miles better than my built-in laptop mic. If I don't end up using this for podcastsI have heard people say you need a pop filter, so I went and bought one but I couldn't tell any difference. Again, this is said an amateur, but I don't think it is necessary for this mic.Includes a mute button (last photo) - good for livestreamers.Stand can be folded to become handheld (second photo)Good length cable, approx 1mCONSI feel like the sound gain is quite low, as in it could record louder.The stand isn't very sturdy. Of course, it stands on its own, but I feel like it could easily knock over.FINAL OPINIONThis product obviously isn't for professionals, but I think this is great for any amateurs or people looking for their first mic but unable to spend a lot. It's amazing quality for the price and I would recommend to people in a similar situation as me.Please like if you found this helpful! Thank you :)

Everything works as expected and I have no complaints in that regard, however it's called "Mini" Condenser Microphone - there is nothing Mini about it. I'm perfectly happy with it otherwise, only complaint really is the size. I bought it because I though it would be smaller as the desk is small and I wanted to keep it between the keyboard and the screen. I gave it 4⭐ purely because the size doesn't match the name/title of the product.

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.
