Original Review:
First, if you want a professional recording use pro equipment in a studio. This mic is worth every dollar. I purchased it to help with a vblog and live stream stuff, it does great. I have used it in a small room, a church sanctuary, and outside in the wind, It works far better than I expected and so far I am exceptionally pleased. In fact I am going to purchase another and will use them as an alternative to taking more expensive equipment outside. The tripod that comes with it feels cheap, and that is the only knock on it.
Pro-tip: if there's a buzzing in your recording, it's probably because you've connected your cable directly into your phone or tablet and it's grounding on the casing. Use one of the provided splitters and it gets rid of the buzz.
**UPDATE**
I ended up using this the other night to record a weekly D&D session, mostly for giggles, and cannot be more impressed! This handy little mic picks up the best within a foot, but will pickup quite a bit. Our table is probably about five square feet, and with the mic stationed at one corner, I was able to pick up the four people's voices really well, if not a little quieter. Keep in mind, that's not really it's intended use. This goes above and beyond what I expected!
This is the best product that I've seen for beginner recorders, and I would go so far as to say professional grade, and I back that with four years of experience with using professional grade mixers and sound systems.
After I posted my original review and sent back the microphone I ordered, I was contacted by the seller. After some back and forth about what I experienced and my reason for returning the product, the seller was confident that they could send me a working microphone. They advised they would test it in house before sending it out to me. Well, it took some time but, I eventually got the new microphone and it works perfect on the same equipment I used last time. I am happy with the sound and quality. I therefor raised my starts from a 1 to a 4. I still had to go through sending back my old one and waiting for a new one but I did end up getting a working and great product (especially for the cost).
**ORIGINAL REVIEW**
IF this product would have worked, it would have been an extremely easy set up, just plug it in. I have a Samsung 7 Edge that i was attempting to use this with. I am a new blogger on YouTube and am trying to improve the quality of my videos with both picture, lighting, and sound. The Samsung has a great picture, I bought a great Lighting kit (awesome), and all I was missing was to make the sound perfect. I was torn between purchasing this and a lapel. I guess I should have ordered the lapel. Seeing as I'm not using any real professional equipment, I thought that for the price, this would be a great place to start for getting better sound quality.
So, what was the problem you ask? The BUZZING! Although the mic was able to pick up my voice (barely), there was an awful buzzing sound that was horrible. Regardless of how I plugged it in, it just would not work. I took it out of the stand and basically put it in front of my mouth and still no use. You could barely hear me and the buzzing was there. I read reviews of holding the mic in the wrong direction, it wasn't that either. MAYBE this item is just not compatible with the samsung 7edge. This item is being immediately returned.
Hope this helps :)
thank u
In addition, for a cardioid mic it picks up a lot of background noise to the side and was pretty scratchy. Only tested on the USB interface, bad experience, sent it back. If it works for you, great, it's a nice looking little mic but didn't work for me.

Muy buen microfono para su rango de precio
A pesar de que dice que es unidireccional, recoge mucho sonido ambiental si se lo coloca muy lejos, pero con algo de configuración queda casi perfecto, como referencia, yo lo utilizo con 90% de potencia y 10Db de amplificación para que no tenga sonido de fondo y 100% para juegos en línea donde en realidad es casi imperceptible
No lo recomiendo para producción profesional pero para grabaciones caseras, videoconferencias y juegos en línea es perfecto
Viene con una tarjeta de sonido USB y con un cable para conectarlo a teléfonos o iPad, ojo que sin usar este cable el teléfono no lo reconoce
