I got tired of using a headset for gaming, this mic picks it up isnt too loud, and is comfortable. Definately better than a headset which annoys the ears.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This thing really isn't that great. For the price I imagined that this would be superior to the labtec compact mic that I bought. I was way wrong the labtec is much better and about a 1/3 of the cost of this one.

Perfect Freq Response for VoIP
By K4JDRVerified Reviewer from Raleigh, NC on 8/16/2008
Pros:
Compact Design, Easy To Use, Great Sound Quality, Quality Microphone
Cons:
Mic only
Best Uses:
Mobility
Describe Yourself:
Quality Oriented
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

When needing a microphone only with VoIP operation it works extremely well. Works very well with the interfacing of radio with RF signal. Example: Amateur Radios EchoLink.

 
Works well with a recording device
By Big K from Texas on 8/4/2008
Pros:
Omni-Directional, Very Sensitive
Cons:
Cable feels thin, On Off Button
Best Uses:
External microphone
Describe Yourself:
Quality Oriented
Primary use:
Business
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I use this for EVP work and it seems to work well when plugged into a digital voice recorder or cassette recorder. It can almost be too sensitive at times. The cable feels thin as if it may not last over a long period of time. For the price this isn't so bad. The on/off button can be difficult at times, it's not very easy to tell if it's in the "on" position just by looking.

 
A deaf microphone
By The Quiet Yell from Minnesota on 6/11/2008
Pros:
Compact Design
Cons:
Difficult To Use, Poor Microphone, Poor Sound Quality, Uncomfortable
Describe Yourself:
Value Oriented
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This microphone does not pick up any sound unless it is within an inch of the source. I maxed out the sensitivity and gain on my computer, but I still had to yell into it from 6 inches away to hear anything. The cord does have a decent length and this was inexpensive.
