I used to run a small recording studio and these sound FINE

An excellent solution to improving audio when recording on-the-fly field videos, or even in the studio when a lot of movement is not required.

Pros: inexpensive, consistent recording quality/volume, easy setup (i.e., no setup required and worked right out of the box), good field of capture range (even outside)Cons: no battery indicator, windscreen falls off relatively easily, too long of cord (that's a lot of cord to stuff in a pocket if you also need to make room for the recording device)Final notes: I only tried this on the Samsung Galaxy S5 and built-in voice recorded and can't comment on usability with other devices (or Apple products that people have noted issues with) or recording methods

I can have better voice record from this.

It has decent audio recording quality and a wind shield

The item comes with all the things necessary for a good record

This really needs to have a power light on it, but other then that it works well indoors in a quiet environment.it does record awfully low for a powered device and my only other issue with this mic

It sounds bad recording into my iPhone (all apps), my Zoom (both the H4N and H5N), and all of my DSLR cameras.

I've tried recording with my Moto X Pure, and with my Nikon D750 DLSR and it was terrible with both

But, since anything recorded with this is barely audible at all, I can't really say I got even 30 bucks worth of a recording device

The recorded sound is, for the most part, clear until you hold the mic close to your mouth when you're trying to get a louder recording
