Customer Ratings & Reviews

FYI I'm a very amateur user. This is my first mic. Before I installed the Logitech G Hub software the recordings I made sounded pretty bad because the mic was picking up basically every sound in the house. I was starting to wish I had purchased another mic with less sensitivity, but after I installed Logitech G Hub and tweaked a few settings I was very easily making high-quality (by my standards, at least) voice recordings. So far I've used it for about 30 minutes of recording, using the free software Audacity, and I'm happy with the results. Also, the stand is hefty and solid, so I don't worry about it falling over.

This microphone was an awesome purchase. My husband actually bought this to start is streaming for gaming. It picks up his voice beautifully and is the perfect size. The one major problem with this purchase is this microphone picks up every little sound made and I mean every. I could be doing the dishes upstairs while my husband is in the basement and this microphone will pick up the sound. We have to get a cover for this microphone so it would focus more on his voice than any of the surrounding sound. Other than that this was truly a good microphone and one of the best for the price offered.

Awesome sound. Neat little switch to change the way it picks up sound, depending on the way you're using it (one setting for picking up a conversation among a group of people, another setting for a single person using it, another for two people, etc.). Great mic. If you want the best one Best Buy has to offer, this is it.

My son has had a Blue Yeti for about 2 years & now working more from home prompted me to get my own. Quality is great & variety of functions to accommodate many needs. Only drawback was when I was trying get my son's mic warrantied, it took forever with customer service. Persistence & receipt finally got it done.

If you are serious about voice, creating Podcasts, or voice gaming this microphone is the one. The voice quality is awesome. No software was required, just plugged in and started using on PC and on Tablets (Galaxy and iPad Air)

Pretty easy to use, plus the quality is great. 4 modes are helpful.

This is the best USB mic. Highly recommend it. Great for podcasts and streams

Plug and play, USB simplicity. 2 settings on the outside rear of the microphone shell for gain and narrow/wide/stereo choice. Handy mute button on the front over the volume control for headphones (sold separately). Voice quality for podcast/vodcast/voiceover or for Zoom is superb.

Professional tool at a very reasonable price, good quality, easy to use for a clear recording experience.

Good mic, audio quality is really nice. It does have an issue staying upright but that is usually solved by tightening itS

good sound quality, easy to setup. It is large but that must help sound quality.

The Blue Yeti lives up to its reputation. Great sound and totally worth spending more to upgrade from the built-in computer microphone. I'm not a professional, but I can't think of a single thing this does not provide. Everything I need for perfect sound is right here.

It's a well constructed microphone, heavy in fact. I found it to have good audio quality, adjustable gain to help with background noise. The best feature for me was the mike button with an LED to indicate whether it's active or not. I personally prefer to mute with a hard switch than with software. It has a port for headphones which is a bonus.

Overall review/pro and con at bottom Ok I'm not a mic expert but I am wrting this to help people make an informed decision on buying Mics. So I bought he Yeti along with 2 other mics and compared them all using Nvidia Geforce Experience recording and obs studio w/ and w/out the standard obs filter plugins. I even tested them out with the third party reaper filter plugins for obs studio. The Samson Meteor Mic ($70)and the Hyper X Quadcast S ($160) are the other mics I compared to the yeti. I'm going to tell you how each mic did in comparison then give you the reason why I gave the Yeti a 3 star rating. Also keep in mind I am using a gaming laptop with an occasional loud fan. The Meteor says its for streaming, gaming and practical means. However it picks up a lot of background noise even with the obs stuio plugins. Even the reaper plugins didnt make much difference. I can hear keyboard sounds, my pc's fan, my chair, faint echos of family down the hall. I think this mic was intended for a regular laptop (no fan) in a quiet place. The yeti was the one mic I kept seeing every where for gaming and practical means. Unlike the samson metoer, it has 4 polar modes knob and a gain control know. The polar modes helps the mic best suit the situation like for interviews, streaming, multi voices, and instruments. All this means is the mic only picks up audio from either one or multiple sides. For example the streaming option only picks up from one side greatly helping reducing background noise. I tested it w/out any plugins and it does okay. Its much better than the Samson Meteor. Then I tested the mic w/ the standard obs plugins and then the reaper. The reaper plugins helped the audio the most especially with the noisegate plugin which doesnt let audio record unless it it reachess a certain loudness. It minimize the background sounds even more so. I even tested the mic up closer with the mic tilted it sounds really good, but you have to adjust the gain knob so you are not too loud. The test with Geforce Experience has no filter plugin, but the audio still sounded really warm had some base. I was still able to hear some background noise though. The last mic I test and compared ws the Hyper X Quadcast S. This mic is intended for gaming but can be used for other means use as interviews, podcast etc. I found this mic to be more forgiving than the other two mics. So this mic has the same 4 polar options knob, gain knob, and mute button. However, there is a few things that this mic does different that is noticeable. Buttons/knobs are smooth and quiet. Its lighter and slightly smaller than the yeti. Its has rgb lighting that the yeti does not. In relation to the mute button, you just tap the top of the mic and them mic mutes and at the same time the rgb lights turn off indicating the mic is mute. Yeti just has a light for mute indication. The Hyper X has an anti shaking mechnism which reduces sounds and unwanted noise. Yeti has no such thing. The hyper x even has an internal pop filter inside of it. Yeti does not. Upon testing in obs, the hyper x does really great at reducing background noise. I think better than the yeti. The reaper plugins have to be re-adjusted. For instance there is a reaper plugin filter called reapfir that you can use to subtract noise when you pc is at idle such pc fans. You have to let what ever mic currently plugin record idle sound without doing anything in order for it to work. With the gain knob all the way up, the hyper x didn't pickup the fan what so ever unless you put it really close to my pc's fan like touching. The yeti I notice was able to pick up my pc's fan without being close. I dont know if this has to do the yeti not having a pop filter or slightly being worse at filtering background noise or what. This is when I noticed the gain knob on the yeti was better than the hyper x but that can also be a bad thing filtering out sounds. Then I noticed the noisegate reaper plugin had to be re-adjusted because the hyper x wasnt picking audio as senstive as the yeti. Which is good because I dont want the background noise but I had to adjust the noise gate so my voice can be heard. When I test it out with the Nvidia Geforec experience recording, it sounded like a studio recording like a youtube content creator. Keep in mind the geforce experience has no filters. Overall give the 3 stars because although it has better gain control, the hyper x quadcast s does a better job at filtering out background noises even without plugin filters. The yeti lacks a pop filter, and anti-shaking mount. Despite being able to tilt foward, the hyper x quadcast s picks up audio better. Pros/cons Samson Meteor Pro -portable -for practical uses like interviews -basic mute button -basic gain knob -light Con -not for gaming/fan audio gets recorded -no polar modes -no anitshake mount -no rbg light Yeti Pro -polar modes -tilt mic -grain control knob Con -heavy -no rgb lighting -polar mode knob on back/makes sounds adjusting -no pop filter -no anti shake mount Hyper x quadcast s Pro -light -rbg lights/works with mute -knobs/buttons are super quiet/ visibly in front -gain knob -polar mode knob -antishake mount -internal popfilter -better at reducing background noise than yeti -more forgiving with audio Con -can tilt but only back -gain knob not as loud as yeti

I started getting more serious about streaming and wanted to get a better microphone than what was on my webcam. The webcam worked but it sounded like I was on a speaker phone and at times as difficult to hear me. I was recommended this specific microphone from a streamer buddy and decided to get it, and I'm so glad I did! Theres a number of settings on the mic depending on how you want to use it and for how many people will be using it. Usually I just stream on my own so I set it for a single direction towards me and is about 6 or so inches away on my desk. Simply put, the sound is great. It sounds so clean and clear that when I playback my stream it sounds like I'm right there. I do recommend, however, adding a good foam covering/wind screen to the mic as it is so great at picking up every bit of sound that its possible to pick up wind from an open window, or a fan, or even rustling in the background. The windscreen gets rid of this and makes this thing about as perfect as you can get. TL;DR - The mic is amazing. Recommend adding a wind screen. Just get it.

Great microphone for the money. Sensitive and accurate voice capture. Durable and well made. Easy to use.

great mic everyone hears me crystal clear even if i step away

Best Microphone for Zoom Conference and other web based meetings. It has 4 options to receive the voice and hence is very much effective with more people in one room attending the conference call. It picks up even the minutest sound. Worth the money you are spending. Purchased two of this - Blue and Black.

Great Sound easy to set up for the price it's the best

Clear recordings. Easy to setup and use. Better than other microphones.
