    Due to the pandemic, we've been doing a lot of video calls so I wanted to up my virtual game. Bought this but didn't even work. Maybe I didn't use it correctly but my daughter who is more technologically inept couldn't get it to work. We had to return it so I do not reccommend.

    IF you need a mic, it's a mic. Otherwise, it won't be better than the default option you already have access to.

    The darn cable is way too short work with. Try using this while filming. You will be limited due to the 3 inch long cable. Waste of money IMO. Amazon has Bluetooth mics for the same price and they are better quality.

    It records in stereo and picks up everything in the room. Good for if you are planning on recording in stereo (why would you for lectures and interviews though), but not good if you want to get a professional sound.
