  • Very quiet, but good quality
Style: XS Lav USB-C
The mic is surprisingly good quality (to my novice ears). However, it is very quiet. I needed to boost the output by almost 20 dB in OBS Studio to do a recording for YouTube. Nonetheless, it seems to work fine now, and sounds much better than webcam or laptop microphones.

  • Works with both my phone & Windows 11 PC
Style: XS Lav USB-C
- The cable is long enough for most use cases. - Connection to my desktop PC with Windows 11 was not plug & play. It didn't get recognized by the OS when plugged into a USB-C port directly, but worked when I used a USB-C to USB-A adapter (not included) to plug it into a USB-A port. On the phone (Z Fold 4), the mic works flawlessly when connected to the phone's USB-C jack. - The clip on the mic has a really tight grip, which means it will hold its place securely, but also means it's a bit@h to open the clip to even use it. - The sound quality of the recording seems OK enough for casual use. ... show more

  • Laptop, Bose700, Sennheiser
Style: XS Lav USB-C
The media could not be loaded. Works well with Windows laptops with USB C port. Expensive headphones with noise cancelling are not always appropriate.

  • Not compatible with iPhone14 Pro
Style: XS Lav USB-C
This product seem fine, but it was not compatible with my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I found it a bit confusing that it said it has a USB-C connection, but that is only for the charger, not the actual phone port. I had to return this product and buy from a different company.

  • Quality sound
Style: XS Lav Mobile
The plastic is kind of cheap but what do you expect for the price?, nonetheless the sound is movie quality. If they can do this at $50 I imagine what the $400 version sounds like!

  • Pretty good performance for the price
Style: XS Lav USB-C
As a mic to use for video meetings like Teams or Duo or Zoom, this works well. For the price, it's a good mic for simple audio. Having one that's wireless instead of USB C would, of course, be nicer and more convenient but the price really goes up for a good quality wireless lapel mic.

  • Beats Rode

Compare this one to the Rode lapel and this one was better. I use it for outdoor podcasting.

  • Extremely week output signal on Macs
Style: XS Lav USB-C
I really wanted to like the XS Lav USB-C—own the Sennheiser MKE 400 Shotgun mic and Sennheiser HD650 headphones and they're great—but this product doesn't work for me. Build quality is excellent for the price point—love the 2 meter cable length—but output signal is feeble. I plugged into the USB-C ports of my iMac Pro and MacBook Pro and, with input level maxed out in the Sound panel (and headphones!), I could barely detect sound in voiceover recordings. I tried it in GarageBand, TwistedWave and Final Cut Pro, same deal—weak with gain cranked. Either this mic is defective or, maybe, the weak signal is due to weirdness in Apple's USB-C implementation (mic is reported to work on PCs). Oddly, USB 2 mics like the Samson Go Mic and Blue Yeti have plenty of gain on my Mac. I couldn't test the XS Lav USB-C on my iPhone or iPad because the Lightening to USB-C adapters I tried didn't work. This sick puppy returned to Amazon. On a positive note, I bought the Sennheiser XS Lav Mobile variant with 3.5 TRRS connecter: works great—full natural sound—on my Macs and has a strong signal. With TRRS to TRS adapter, works on my Canon DSLR and Tascam DR-60 MK II audio recorder. Also works great on my iPhone albeit requires an Apple Lightning headphone adapter plus y-cable (to plug in headphones and mic). I'd write a review for it but Amazon has both mics under the same product listing and only allows one review. The TRRS XS Lav Mobile is a 5-star product. Bottom line is, if you're a Mac user, don't buy the XS Lav USB-C. Buy the XS Lav Mobile (TRRS) instead. ... show more
