Lots of Audio Interference
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think the mic is not properly shielded. It clicks a lot and I realize that the clicking is due to other wireless signals. It seems like anything on the 2.4GHz spectrum will cause audio interference. Recording using my iPhone on WiFi, I would need to turn off my WiFi and Bluetooth. But then I move around the house and it picks up interference from other wireless devices. This mic is not made for the mobile/WiFi era. Also I had to buy a TRRS converter cable to make this work with my laptop and my iPhone.

Does Not Work With Phone
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a very last minute purchase for a school project. Unfortunately, I couldn't use it because it was not compatible with my phone (I did not have a camera to use it with). I'm sure it works just fine, but I was unable to use it so I had to just return it instead.

It's alright
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microphone is definitely better than The internal microphones in cameras. The cable it comes with works perfectly but as soon as I plug a different cable into it Like when I want a longer one, it has static noises at times. So I do recommend it but I just wish it work better with other cables.
