Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:Sound qualityCons mentioned:CableSo I wanted to give this product a 4 but it wouldn't be fair to the product because it actually does sound good. I made a video review on this microphone here...https://youtu.be/dkR4_8QKHJk To give a brief review using my words, this microphone sounds good and is an easy plug and play product. It is quite small In size so concealing it under clothing is easy. Other then it's very short 4'2" cable length, I couldn't figure any other bads about this microphone. It is pretty sensitive to picking up ambient sounds depending on the DB levels. Of all the microphones whether wireless or shotgun styled, I almost never find myself using this Lav mic. My ratings are strictly based off the microphone's performance which is rather excellent. Rode never said this microphone came with a long cable, they never advertised it as the best lav mic on the market or anything false. In my personal opinion, I would say this microphone is best used for settings where the ambient noise is below 78db. It works fine in noisier environments, just be ready to hear the backround noise in your output when playing back the audio. I want to be clear that this lav microphone is a "close range" microphone. What that means is whatever you want to connect this to needs to be within an arm's reach. I've used this for vlogging with my GoPro having it directly connected and with a 22" selfie stick fully extended, I've reached the cord's max length "when concealing the cable inside my shirt". This lav microphone works very very well with my Rode wireless Go incase you guys were wondering. It allows more flexibility with microphone placement of you don't want to use the Wireless go's transmitter itself which I have a video on that microphone as well. - yes you can use this with a personal recording device (as long as it has a 3.5mm input jack for you to connect this in) - yes you can use it for your DSLR or point and shoot camera (also as long as it has a 3.5mm input jack) - I use this with my Samsung note 10+ using the "Voice recorder app" and with my GoPro Hero8 inside the media mod. A special adaptor is needed to use this with your modern samsung and apple phones that no longer have a 3.5mm input jack. - I am not sure if you could use this with a laptop as a dedicated microphone for web chatting or anything relative but if your device has a didicated microphone input, I'm sure you could. You guys could always reach me on Snapchat, Gmail or on my YouTube channel @ Jonasegway. I like to do random test with equipment of all sorts with as many different scenarios as possible, grabbing as much information as possible so hopefully I am able to answer your questions or concerns you may have on this product. Enjoy your day and hopefully you'll find good use of this mic.

Works Great with DSLR camera's TRS(3 pole) input
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5I have a Canon T2i and wanted better sound quality when filming a video. The Rode Lavalier Go mic picks up the voice quite clearly. For a Lavalier, it's good at minimizing background noise. Another reason I chose this mic is that its connector fits the DSLR camera microphone input, which requires a TRS(3 pole) connector. Be aware that microphone has only a 4-foot cable that it's not in the product description. It's rather short to connect directly to the DSLR camera. I believe this microphone is meant to go with the RODE wireless system. I purchased an extension cable to solve the problem.

Q: QuestionHow does this work outdoors? We need an external microphone in order to livestream or record outdoor church.
Asked by WandaJune.
- A:Answer This will work great outdoors! Id it's windy outside, you may put this microphone inside your shirt close to your neck or clip it inside your collar to hide it from the wind. I've tried this microphone in many different settings and overall it performs well outdoors. Here's a few links to videos relative to this microphone. If you have any live questions, you can contact me on Snapchat @ Jonasegway and I could go into further detail if need be. - This video has this Rode lav mic being used with the Rode wireless Go https://youtu.be/dkR4_8QKHJk - This video also transitions between the Rode lav microphone and the Pop Voice lav microphone. Please note the Rode lav microphone is only a tad over 4ft long from the tip of the microphone to the tip of the 3.5mm end and the Pop voice lavalier microphone is like 6.5ft. both microphones sound very good. The Popvoice comes with a red and yellow foam cover for the microphone and a adaptor that allows your microphone to work from a TRRS to a TRS. Any how I won't get much into that microphone but like I said I'd you have any further questions, you can Snapchat or email me. Jonasegway is my Gmail address, just be sure to put Rode lav mic as the subject so I know not to delete it. Hope this helps/helped.

Q: QuestionWill this work with the note 10+
Asked by ThatsKat.
- A:Answer You cannot plug this directly into a phone/tablet headphone jack because that jack is meant for both, So you most likely need an adapter but it will work with the correct connection. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/rde-sc4-3-5mm-to-3-5mm-female-male-microphone-adapter-gray-black/6255420.p?skuId=6255420
