Nice external mic for the price!
Don't expect miracles from a cheap microphone, but it does sound better than the mic on my iPhone. Was a little tough to test because the mic on my phone is always on, but I just covered them up (front and back). I used a couple of adapters to hook this to a gyro stabilizer. And it worked very well. No buzzing or clicking. Just the recorded voice I would expect to hear. I use this with an adapter that allows both mic use and power on an iPhone 8+. Would be better with a single TRS to lightning plug cable, but decided just to use the cable the mic came with along with an adapter. Will purchase a single cable to replace the two some time in the future. Works Ok for now! Don't have a more expensive mic to compare it with, but it certainly meets my needs and seems pretty well made.

You get what you pay for I guess
It didn't work when I first tried it. I adjusted the cable and then it cut in and out. I thought the cable was bad, then I tried the cable with another mic and no issue. I tried a different cable I already had with the mic and it proved that the issue was with the mic. The cable connection on the mic is poor quality. If you touch the cable or the mic it cuts out all audio and makes loud distorting pops. If the cable is bumped you could loose all your audio as it can render the mic connection void. I won't even comment on the quality of sound, because I need a reliable connection that won't cut out and ruin my audio/video. Originally 1 star, but changed it to three because the seller refunded me after writing this review. Still not sure I can recommend this mic as I don't know if mine was a fluke or the standard.

It has everything you need for setting up external mic
I purchased this as an external mic for my Samsung S9 Plus for vlogging. It works okay for the price but you'll definitely need an additional adapter for Android phones. I don't have much experience with external mic so I don't have anything to compare it against

Have a second mount ready. The out of box mount will go very soon with regular usage.
I enjoy the noise cancellation ability as the sound came out better than the on board microphone. However I must say the mount for the mic broke almost as soon as I took it out of the box.

Is not a 'Shotgun Mic as says..
It will pick 'any' kind of voice or noise from either direction; even, from the back. I think I waist my money...

The cord didn't fit
The cord that is supposed to actually go into the microphone does not fit. Both cords do not fit. I tried both ways , and it still does not fit.

So wollte ich das...
Preis Leistung völlig in Ordnung für meine Bedürfnisse! Natürlich gibt es Bessere aber da ich auf der Suche nach einem Mikro war das nur seinen Job macht ungeachtet auf hohe Qualität ist es recht anständig..
