how's the microphone?

I like it. I filmed a cousin's outdoor wedding from behind the back row, and it picked up the audio better than a lot of the people in the audience were able to hear it. Not much wind noise either. The only bad audio I've gotten from it was when I filmed close to some kind of drain that was moving a fair amount of water off a dock and into the water below, but I'm not sure any built-in mic would've done well with that much din in the background. (To its credit, I can still make out most of the words in that recording.)

Better than you would think. We shot some video and it picked up everything.

It is new, but there is a factory issue with the microphone. It is still worth the cost if you can do without audio.

Yeah. It's good about that. However, I would suggest not getting this one. Mine crapped out after just four months. It may have ben that I was bending it up every which way a lot, and perhaps that messed up the wires. Just be forewarned: It may not last long, and you want to avoid bending the mic arm as much as possible.

The sound quality is pretty decent for a headset mic and is better than most mics people use online. It does not have built in noise cancellation as far as I know, but most apps and games you would use it with have some form of noisegate to account for it. It is a dynamic microphone, so it doesn't pick up a crazy amount of noise by default.

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.

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!

It's not any better or worse than a normal iphone or Samsung factory head set microphone. I have 2 hollow air sets:) it's worth the price:)

Hi Coty, have youtried the speakerphone function? how sensitive the mic is? can you speak like 0.5 m to 1 m from the mic and yet the other side still hear you clearly?

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.

I personally don't use the mic,I bought it for my son. He however says that it is pretty sturdy. He's dropped it off his desk a couple of times and it still works like a champ.

This is a good question. But the fact is that unfortunately (may be fortunate according to your request) the microphone does not work for me from the very beginning.

The microphone is basic and functional. It picks up sounds very well. The webcam is pretty clear and works great.

Just voice chat and it's not very good quaity. This is a good mic if you want something really inexpensive.

Yeah, for what it is, the microphone works great. I was actually really surprised at how well the mic captured everything while recording. You should easily be able to record interviews with it.

The mic is totally fine - no complaints there. I use Mumble/Vent regularly and my clanmates have had no complaints. I also don't have to use mic boost or anything like that.

Yes the microphone is good. You can use it with Skype, Voxer, Robin, and many other apps that require a microphone. I see that someone talked about the battery life. Well, in my opinion it has a good battery life. I charge it at night, and I take to class. I look at my presentations, navigate on the web, play games, use facebook and twitter, and the battery lasts me the whole day. It lasts me around 7 hours using continuously (non-stop)

btw after writing my last comment i went to www.macspeech.com and checked out their headsets and some of them look really good. pricey though i'd stick with the usb microphones and pic one from their page and go for it
