    The mic works, but the software download doesn’t. In fact, there’s no real expanded software that comes with it. If there is, please send it to me or instruct me on where it is and any requirements. If not, please send me my refund.

    the size is great and easy to maneuver but i thought it was so confusing to connect my master volume switch on the computer kept switching back and forth between master volume and mic device. it got frustrating after while.

    When I purchased this mic I thought it would work right out of the box no problem. Issue being was that I had a communication project due that day that required good sound quality and reliable performance but when I opened the box and plugged it into my laptop, nothing. No sound, no nothing. I messed with setting to see what was wrong or if there was a drive I needed to install. Nothing online nor support had any answers that seemed to help. Don't waste your time.

    I like the size... I really like this product until a few months ago. Started to distort my voice down several levels and I have to unplug and not use it when it happens. Very sporadic... but not possible to continue a conversation without others thinking you are the Allstate guy.

    This is a throwback product. I needed a quality compact microphone for recording on the go. This ain't it. Sound is blah and uses a USB mini, yes the big fat connection.

    Acceptable pic up and sound quality, but not the greatest small portable microphone available.

    Good for recording, but it takes away the built-in speakers so unable to use during Zoom calls
