how good is the microphone?

as good as a cable-sized microphone would be. Clear. Fair enough. It does not work with Galaxy S3 (tried with sister's)

Nothing is prefect. The mic is not very clear unless you hold it to your mouth.

Cannot tell you. I have a Samsung galaxy and the Mic only works with apple. Disappointing.

I thought the microphone worked great. Yes, recording conversations or interviews replays in great sound quality.

I purchased it about a year and a half ago. I used it for a while and it was adequate however I primarily used it on Ventrilo and Teamspeak and my friends would complain about it not being loud enough. If I turned on mic boost the volume would be fine but then the mic would pick up a lot of background and white noise. I'm sure it can be tweaked and work with whatever program you are going to use it for but it just proved to be more hassle than it was worth. I replaced it with a different mic about three months ago.

The quality of the microphone is amazing so, as long as you are speaking reasonably clear. It should work perfectly!

In my ooinion the microphone works good. For the budget buyer it works great. Use an audio software like audacity to record and tweak and sound problems (which I haven't ran I to) and you got yourself a good microphone.

There is a mic and it doesn't work really well with hearing though I can say that after using it for chat on Skype, Yahoo, Gmail, and on my mobile phone... That the quality of my voice is not very good. No matter how I hold the mic up to my mouth in any angle that I can, it doesn't change the quality besides being louder when my mouth is closer. The mic is attached to the wire, it isn't attached to the headpiece itself. As for listening quality though, it is worth it and has an amazing noise-reduction.

I haven't had many earphones that have had microphones, so that's a quick disclaimer. Compared to the earphones I've had before, these earphones are on par in terms of microphone quality. They are slightly static-y at times but I've had them for over four months and people can't tell I'm using the microphone.

I have used this mic for recording interviews and it works very well. I've placed it on a desk or table several feet away and it has no problem picking up the conversation.

I found it doesn't have a lot of distortion. Is it pro-level? Not even close, but for a budget and for most people that might listen to recordings done with it, it will be fine. I've recorded performances with it, and as a shotgun mic, it filters out external noise nicely.

Yes. The sound quality is excellent but the microphone is not the best one I've used. People would often say the have difficulty hearing me, making me holding the mic closer to my mouth. If you need to use it mostly in noisy places, look more. But for audio consumption, it performs very well.

It's a great little microphone. I use it on a Dell M90 laptop with Win7 Pro.

Sound quality is quiet good, especially for a headset. You can get stand alone microphones with better quality but for a headset the microphone is quiet good. I don't get any background noise, NO scratching or hum. I use it quiet often for gaming and Skype calls, works perfectly. The "G-Keys" allow you to assign a push to talk or any sort of macro keys. Let me know if you have any other questions. Please give me feedback, thanks!

Microphone quality is quite good. Never any complaints from the other person on a phone call that they can't hear me (and I ask frequently).

yes the mics are very good! I have had mine for half a year so far, no loss in quality. but keep the small one in a memorable place.p.s it would be a good idea to SEW the ear padding down, otherwise it will come off within 2 weeks. (that is literally the only problem, if you sew it early, you will never have to worry about the padding)better than the expensive turtle beach or other brands that I've tried, that's for sure!

The Mic works really well, but some voices carry better than others. It's always best to encourage people to hold the mic close to their mouth. We're very happy with the mic.

Sound quality is great. I work in a noisy atmosphere and it sounds great. Nobody has a problem with anything I say , as for the mic.

It's okay. My experience is that if you hold the microphone near your mouth you can be heard even on a busy street. I've never really used it indoors.
