Q: Will this work with an iphone 10? If so, do I need a special cable?

A: To use this with an iPhone X you need to purchase two things: the Rode SC7 cable and a Lightning to 3.5mm adapter. Make sure you plug the black end (the TRS connector) into your VideoMicro and the grey end (the TRRS connector) into the lightning to 3.5mm adapter. If you plug it in the other way around, it will not work.

A: Yes, this product can work with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Smartphone.

Q: Does it work with Mac book pro?

A: No, it does not work with Mac book pro.

Q: what is the mic range distance for good sound

A: The furthest I have recorded is about 3 feet and it sounds fantastic.

Q: will this work for an iphone XR? for my youtube channel and if not do you have any mics to recommend

A: Yes. You need to buy the Rodé cable SC7 to connect the 3split side direct into the iPhone.

Q: Will this mic work on Canon EOS M50?

A: Yes, this mic will work on Canon EOS M50.

Q: Will this work on note 205g?

A: Hello Nic, The VideoMicro has a 3.5mm connector powered by plug-in power, while the Galaxy Note 20 5g has a USB-C port. You will need a USB-C to 3.5mm TRS dongle to connect the devices.
