Customer Ratings & Reviews

Overall a great USB microphone for creators and those looking for better quality audio on zoom calls and webinars. The build quality is great, and the microphone is a well-designed addition to my setup. The Yeti Blue Microphone is easy to use straight out of the box, and can be configured further using the Logitech G Hub software. I am experiencing a bug with the software across all of my devices where it shows the microphone being stuck in the setup process, but the configuration works regardless. I have noticed the audio feels a bit thin/hollow, but the quality you get out of this microphone really depends on how far away you are from it. For best results, try to position it 6-8 inches from your face, and speak into the front of the microphone, not the top.

This thing is easy to instal, easy to set to the correct settings. Works well with Garage Band which is great because it is free with macs. Again, not technically equipped to compare it to anything but it works super well for me. Did a voice over for a video we produced.

I recently purchased the Blue Yeti USB Microphone from Best Buy, and it's been an absolute game-changer for my recording setup. The microphone boasts an array of impressive features that cater to both beginners and seasoned creators alike. The standout feature for me is its versatility in recording. With multiple pickup patterns, including cardioid, bidirectional, omnidirectional, and stereo, the Yeti adapts effortlessly to various recording scenarios. Whether I'm recording podcasts, vocals, instruments, or interviews, this microphone consistently delivers excellent audio quality. The integration of Blue VO!CE filters add another layer of professional-grade customization to my recordings. These filters allow for fine-tuning and enhancing my voice or instrument to achieve a more polished and studio-like sound, elevating the overall quality of my content. The custom mic capsule ensures crisp and clear audio reproduction, capturing nuances and subtleties in sound with impressive accuracy. Additionally, the intuitive studio controls make adjusting settings on the fly incredibly easy, allowing me to focus more on my content and less on technicalities. The inclusion of a headphone output directly on the microphone is a practical feature. It enables real-time monitoring, ensuring that what I'm recording is precisely what I want, without any unwanted surprises during post-production. Lastly, the internal components of the Blue Yeti USB Microphone work harmoniously, resulting in a reliable and durable device that has become an integral part of my recording setup. In summary, the Blue Yeti USB Microphone from Best Buy is a top-notch choice for content creators, podcasters, musicians, and anyone seeking high-quality audio recording. Its blend of versatility, customizable features, and ease of use make it a standout product in its category.

This was very easy to install and simple to use upgrading from a headset mic to this was a good choice my voice quality has increased and the controls and alterations this microphone allow let you choose how you sound.

Amazing mic and delivers incredibly. Uses micro to usb which I was more worried about as those cables are aging out and realllly heavy to put on a boom stick. Otherwise does exactly what it needs to do. Would recommend a pop filter with it

Best Buy had the best price for the Blue Yeti at the time purchased. I have two Blue Yeti mics. We use them for music instruction over Zoom, podcasts, as well as making orchestral recordings. This is a very versatile microphone with a low noise floor and fantastic sensitivity. With four polar patterns (cardioid, stereo, omnidirectional and b-directional) you can do a lot with this; table interviews, podcasting/vlogging, instrument recording, and full frequency room recording. This mic is a no-brainer for content creators, musicians and music educators. I don't think that there is a more versatile mic at this price point.

Purchasing this product from Best Buy was a piece of cake and ultimately easy. The product it self requires practically no set up, all you have to do is plug it into a USB port and you’re good! The quality of the sound is easily noticeable and the microphone has different audio settings depending on how you plan to use the microphone. I’ve noticed that putting a pop filter or a sock over the microphone helps smoothen out the sound so I definitely recommend getting a pop filter if your money allows. When purchasing this product you should take some time to mess around with the settings to find out what settings work best for you. I recommend watching a YouTube tutorial if you don’t have much time. The quality is perfect if you’re trying to start making videos for YouTube, or just plan on talking to people online a lot.

This microphone produces nice high quality audio, but it is very very sensitive. It will pick up every sound within a mile. Takes a lot of tweaking and trial and error to find a nice volume setting where your voice or instrument records nicely without picking up much background noise. Has 4 recording settings for recording 1 person in front of the mic, one for 2 people on each side of the mic, a setting for all around the mic, and a stereo setting. You can plug in headphones and listen to the audio in real time, such a nice feature. Definitely the best USB microphone I have used, but leaves a slight white noise hissing in the background of everything I record. Audio editing software usually removes it with ease with a noise removal plugin. Has a bit of weight to it, so using it with a cheaper mic stand may cause it to fall, so I recommend a decent more expensive mic stand if You prefer to use a different stand than the included one.

This microphone is sturdy, aesthetically pleasing and built like a tank. you simply cannot damage this thing internally and makes it a very safe and affordable option for anyone. If i were you, download voice meter and an equalizer of your choice to boost your audio quality even more. This microphone with good software skills can sound like a 500 dollar professional studio one. The 4 different pattern modes can be very useful for different scenarios but i tend to go for cardioid mode since i game and record. Very pleased with the product and easy to use with no sacrifice in quality. If you are questioning buying this mic for a condenser mic, the hassle of setting up all the parts and cost for one of those personally isnt worth the trip.

First desk stand mic and the best microphone I’ve ever used

I needed a better microphone than the snowball to record voice overs in my home studio and this ridiculously low priced mic is capable of professional-quality results. It is instantly recognized by windows and most recording software.

I was first skeptical for purchasing a separate mic. But then I realized that most of our meetings come with only audio especially in corporate Microsoft teams. Many times with the laptop mic I always get a complain that I am not audible and not clear. Most times we don’t get a MAC for work. This one helps fix all the problems. This connects via USB. I know Yeti is a professional grade mic. But I love the fact that with the great quality I can even walk in the meeting and talk . Yeti will make sure our voice is crystal clear during the meetings, Though I know its much more than meetings - for me it gives me all I need. Thank you Best Buy once again to give me an honest review and guiding throughout the purchase

Crystal clear audio for calls and recording. Multiple pickup patterns are useful. It’s a classic for a reason.

Quality Mic and easy to connect. Very happy with the purchase price as well.

This microphone has incredible sound quality, versatility, and build quality. It's heavy and fairly expensive but, to me, the weight is not a problem (and maybe an advantage) and the price is well justified.

Needed to do some narration for a home video. After doing some research, I chose the Blue Yeti Professional Condenser Microphone. As other reviews have mentioned, this is a very sensitive mic! Controls on the mic allow you to adjust the sensitivity so I was able to omit much of the ambient noise in the room while still fully capturing my voice. I also connected Bose QC35 headphones to the mic (via cable) to use while I was recording. Nice! Very pleased with the quality of this microphone and look forward to using it again. Getting it on sale as a nice bonus too.

cant get better than this. loved this mic for its quality and ease of use. It is a bit big, but the quality for the price is fantastic

I design and create eLearning from my home office and need a good microphone for recording narrations. The Yeti Blue meets all of my needs. It is plug and play with usb and simple to use with Audacity software. I would recommend that you get a pop filter to use with it. My only complaint is with shipping. They put the Yeti box (about 12” x 6” x 6”) in a shipping box way too large (24” x 18” x 18) with just a couple of air pillows. The box had gotten smashed in and the mic box was sliding around in the oversized box. Thankfully the mic wasn’t damaged, but only because Yeti had it packed well. Best Buy, remember, use the right tool (or in this case box) for the right job!

At this price point the microphone is an outstanding buy. It really produces quality recordings. It isn't the easiest mic to work with but that's in the design, not the function, plug and play, can't go wrong there. However, it is heavy, bulky, and the dials are hard to turn. That being said, try to find a different mic that can produce this quality under $200, Bands on a budget will not be disappointed in this mic.

This mic has been a godsend during this pandemic lockdown. I'm an opera singer, and needed an external mic to record vocals, videos, teach online lessons, and take online lessons and classes. This mic does it all effortlessly. It has onboard gain and directional settings - the onboard gain really comes in handy during online lessons with fussy audio settings. It even has a spot to plug in earbuds or headphones with a 3.5mm jack, which is great when i'm trying to isolate the sound. It provides professional quality sound with minimal setup and is easy to use - just plug and play, which is helpful for non-techy people. 10/10 would recommend without reservation.
