The microphone arrived about 9 hours early, thanks to FedEx. It came in a cool black box, foam padding on the inside, parts all neatly packed in their own pouches, and of course... INSTRUCTIONS! Which is very nice because some manufacturers don't feel the need to include instructions these days. (Haha although, this mic is so simple and straight forward that anyone with even a little computer knowledge should be able to just "plug %26 play" it, as it IS in fact a "plug %26 play" device.)
My old mic was so bad I'm not even going to tell you about it. Which is why I am so pleased with this one. The price point is unbelievable, it is plug %26 play, it makes my voice sound great, it has a very convenient mute button, volume control knob on the bottom, and it even looks cool with the rgb light! Great for streaming, gaming, vlogging, facetime, video chat, conference call, %26 more!
HOWEVER, the boom arm is cheaply made. It is somewhat flimsy, there is no where to tuck the USB cable into in order to keep it out of the way (Fortunately I had some zip-ties laying around.), and honestly, it doesn't feel like it will stand the test of time. But I am creative and not hard to please. So when that time comes, I can simply get a tripod for the mic, or maybe a more well constructed boom arm.
I should give 4 stars for boom quality being a bit subpar. But I am so pleased with the quality of the mic itself, how user friendly it is, and let's not forget that price point... I HAD to give it 5 stars! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!
💡PRO TIP💡
(I bought this microphone for use with a desktop computer. Before purchasing ANY kind of electronic device to pair with another, you should ALWAYS make sure they are compatible first. There might be other components needed to make the device you're ordering compatible with the device you want to pair it with. That was the case in the only 1 star review I saw for this mic came from someone who obviously did not research their compatibility specs before purchasing.)
