    Customers are mixed about the performance of the microphone. Some mention that it works well enough for Lync/Skype for Business phone-calls and video conferencing, while others say that it doesn't do all that well, is unusable, and stops working at random.

    Customers are satisfied with the mic quality of the product. They mention that it's a great mic that consistently picks up clean voice. It's great for gaming, streaming, and other stuff, and it outperforms gaming headset mics, desk-stand mics and every kind of wireless earbud. The quality is good for chatting and the recording quality is way better now.

    "...goal is that people can clearly understand me in game and this mic performs well. The one negative is that it will pick up noise from far away...." Read more

    Customers appreciate the value of the mic. They say it is a great mic for the price and is excellent in relation to quality and price. Some customers also mention that the mic is too long and not sensitive enough.

    "...Pros: Price, PRICE, PRICE! Build is solid, quality matches that of very expensive game mics/headsets. Great if you already have a headset...." Read more

    "...For everybody else, this is a cheap alternative, but I did not find it as good as mics that rest near the mouth and that offer some form of noise..." Read more

    "...Pros:Excellent in relation to quality and price.Cons:Too longNot sensitive enough..." Read more

    "...Extremely cheap.2) Decent sound quality. It has no noticeable static issues or other imperfections...." Read more

    646 customers mention374 positive272 negative

    Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the headset. Some mention that it has great sound quality, they can hear themselves loud and clear, and the voice output quality is excellent. However, others say that it's sensitive to sound in their general vicinity and picks up noise in the room. Some customers also mention that the mic has a little static sound. Overall, opinions are mixed and it'll depend on personal preference.

    "...Teamspeak has (pretty good) noise filtering that will remove 90%+ of noise from fans and such; I'd imagine most any decent voice chat program does...." Read more

    "...(foam) would kill some of the background noise, but it is very sensitive to other sounds, so if you are in a crowded location or in an open floor..." Read more

    "...The microphone itself has very high sound quality, but the direction it was pointing was very important...." Read more

    "...You seriously cannot make any complaints with this mic. Insane audio quality, will pick up A LOT in your room, and under $10...." Read more

    390 customers mention228 positive162 negative

    Customers are mixed about the quality of the microphone. Some mention that the build is solid, and the quality matches that of very expensive mics. However, others say that the product isn't a super high quality mic, and it will do just fine for chatting or gaming. Overall, the quality is mediocre, and inconvenient for both recording and VoIP.

    "...Pros: Price, PRICE, PRICE! Build is solid, quality matches that of very expensive game mics/headsets. Great if you already have a headset...." Read more

    "...It's not a 4-star because it's not a contender for quality products and I don't use the dumb thing anymore. On to my search for a desktop mic." Read more

    "...This helped a ton with the slack, and also prevented the very thin and long cord from getting tangled with my other devices, as I found it did so..." Read more

    "...This mic a very light piece of plastic-- too light to break or crack should you drop it on the floor...." Read more

    266 customers mention117 positive149 negative

    Customers are mixed about the clip. Some mention that the main wire clip stays put, it clips to your existing headphone cables in four places, and the microphone clips easily onto the Y clip. However, others say that the clip isn't a clip, it's useless, and after a lot of use the main clip will just be too loose to hold it on any longer.

    "...Cheap!Cons:*Clip isn't a clip, and the narrowest point in it isn't narrow enough to fit smaller headphone/earbud cords*..." Read more

    "...Great if you already have a headset. This attaches to your headset cable easily...." Read more

    "...ERGONOMICS (4/5)This microphone will NOT clip onto your clothes, like a lavalier...." Read more

    "...The main wire clip stays put. It never fell off the entire time using it.CONS:-..." Read more

    206 customers mention99 positive107 negative

    Customers have mixed opinions about the cord length of the product. Some mention that it is very long and can be placed pretty much anywhere, while others say that it can be annoying with tangled wires. The mic cord is really long and thin, and it's big wire to wrap.

    "...The cable is thin but there isn't a big wire to wrap, it is also VERY long, which isn't an issue...." Read more

    "...I found with this microphone is that the cable is WAY too thin and WAY too long...." Read more

    "...Long cable and compact design.Cons:1) Annoying clip...." Read more

    "...When you run a USB headset, this becomes an extra cord running over your desk. Also, since the cord is extremely longer, there is A LOT of it...." Read more

    107 customers mention55 positive52 negative

    Customers are mixed about the sensitivity of the microphone. Some mention it has great sensitivity, while others say that it's not as sensitive as they would like. Some say that the microphone is very sensitive to flowing air.

    "...the other hand, once the microphone boost is cranked up, the mic is sensitive enough that you can lay it on the desk or stick it to your monitor and..." Read more

    "...Cons:Too longNot sensitive enoughClips are rather useless (the ones along the microphone wire)" Read more

    "...omni-directional, so it picks up sound in all directions and is highly sensitive. So most importantly, your voice does come through fairly clear...." Read more

    "...but I decided to place it in cons as I personally find it to be overly sensitive...." Read more

    Good sound quality, but brittle wire
    2 Stars
    Good sound quality, but brittle wire
    Let me start off by saying that I ordered this mic a little less than one year ago and have used it quite a bit for skype, gaming, etc. throughout that time on a regular basis. I bought this mic with standalone earphones in order to stay away from the way overpriced &#34;gaming&#34; headset market. Put simply the mic works great, but had a fatal flaw. Here's my pro and con list:PROS:- Sound quality is great. I had no static over the line, it easily picked up my voice, and surprisingly it didn't pick up too much background noise for being an open mic decently far from my mouth.- The main wire clip stays put. It never fell off the entire time using it.CONS:- The small clips along the wire that are supposed to hold it on the main wire of your headset are basically useless. They are very small and cheap, and they constantly fell off. I eventually just stopped trying to use them. So while it stays connected at the mic very well the wire will hang independently from there. This can be slightly annoying with tangled wires and the like, and probably led to my next issue.- This is the big one: the wire has a fairly hard thin plastic cover. This leads to a brittle cord that easily cracks without much strength to keep it from bending. At the time of writing this review my mic has just recently broken and no longer works because of this issue. I treat my equipment well, but the hard plastic wire casing still completely cracked through leaving the internal wire exposed. Without the structure of the surrounding plastic the wire itself soon lost connectivity. If the wire clips along the wire worked better it would have been able to parasitically use the strength of the thick headset cord to prevent bending, but that wasn't the case. Pictured is the broken mic wire in comparison to the headset wire.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 22, 2017
    Being into high end 'Hi-Fi' headphones rather than gaming headsets, I found myself needing a mic. A friend reccomended the mod mic by Antlion so I got one and it is excellent!

    However curiosity also made me get one of these, despite the somewhat 'mixed' reviews and I can say that for the price, this little mic is EXCELLENT.

    It clearly picks up my voice and suprisingly, not much of the background noise either. I have done a side by side recording of my voice with both this and the modmic, and the difference is MINIMAL. This mic picks up really well and almost sounds the same as the modmic (which is 4 times the price), it is a little noisier, but thats due to its design and placement.

    Overall a great product and the best value 3.5mm mic on amazon.
