Desktop Microphone Black
Cons:-Sound quality

Pros:-Cheap-It works-Nicely packaged
Comment:
Best $2 mic I've ever had. The packaging was surprisingly good for something this cheap. Sound quality is okay - although that does depend partially on your onboard audio.For $2, I'd definitely buy these again for anyone that needs a cheap mic.If you game online a lot, it might be worth spending more on a better mic. That said, this certainly isn't the worst mic out there, but it's definitely the cheapest! This review was modfied by poster @ 07-29-11 12:38 AM

Bought solely for the purpose of communicating with friends in steam games. Wouldn't recommend for hardcore gamers, but for casual players it is all you need.

Pros:Black, inexpensive, has a stand
Comment:
For this price, you can't go wrong. I needed a cheap microphone to substitute my broken old mic and the one I recently bought at a loonie store for $3 and wouldn't work at all.This one works fine.

A friend of mine needed a very basic microphone. This one does the job; quality is not great but for a $2 item, we can't really complain...

Desktop Microphone Black
Cons:-You may get any brand they have in stock-Not a quality microphone-Have to speak reasonably close to microphone

Pros:-2.40$-It works
Comment:
I got the OG brand microphones, I bought 3. The price was right, they aren't great but they work. I would recommend getting the next level up labtec's for about 4.50 cents, I have that as well and it is way better.

Cons:Not find.

Pros:Price and quality
Comment:
Better then expected. More or less the same kind of product sold in Night Market is 10 bucks. Got those extra cash to buy some other stuff that are not really needed. But this is just cheap!

Cons:it's not very thick and sturdy.

Pros:Works well for the price. very clear and adjustable
Comment:
I would recommend this to anyone, it's a very very cheap microphone and it works. why pay extra to have it attached to the headset when you can save so much more.

Desktop Microphone Black
Cons:None: for this price, what are you complaining about?

Pros:Cheap: does what it says
Comment:
Its your typical boom microphone. Surprisingly works well with my digital voice recorder. However, I would suggest if your doing podcasts and the like, pick up a better sound card to match it with. The performance of a integrated soundcard versus a second creative 5.1 sound card makes a big difference, in terms of recording strength.

Desktop Microphone Black
Cons:assembly was a bit tricky...some of the parts didn't lock together smoothly, had to jame the little mic holder into the base.

Pros:Matches ugly monitorWorks i guess...
Comment:
Well it's grey and ugly, but it matches my ugly monitor, so that's a plus. I have this one which i got for 3 bucks, and then another that i got locally for 5 bucks, essentialy the same thing except the one i got locally came with a thing so you could put it on the side of your monitor, which i thought was neat, but i guess it's not worth 2 bucks, so this one'd be better value-wise.

Cons:cheap stand

Pros:cheap Price
Comment:
Have been putting off getting a basic mic for a long time, added this one as 'filler' to get an order up to $50. Mic looks like its about 8 years old, very unattractive design, but what the hey it works. 8 years ago these were $15; now, just $2.63!

Desktop Microphone Black
Cons:Very light stand- easily moved out of place

Pros:Cheap- can't go wrong at this price!
Comment:
I bought the 5.1 headphones for playing FPS games. I needed a mic to communicate with teammates, so had to get an external (non headset) solution. These were dirt cheap. It gets the job done and I don't care too much about sound quality, as long as I'm unerstood!

Desktop Microphone Black
Cons:Volume is low

Pros:CheapCould be cheaper?
Comment:
I guess I cant complain about a $3 mic, but I'm having trouble with the volume. I have to speak half an inch from it in order for it to pick up any sound, and I can't increase the mic volume high enough because it starts giving off this nasty feedback. Strange because when I talk into the mic, there doesn't seem to be any problem with the volume - I can hear myself through the speakers pretty well, but if I try to use it online or through the voice recorder, it's too low. And if anyone is wondering it's a basic white mic with a stand and adjustable arm. This review was modfied by poster @ 10-12-04 06:19 PM

Pros:Cheap, Good for bulk orders.
Comment:
I puchsed a few of these for my friends company he was starting up and he says they worked perfectly for the price. If your into gaming, i would just go for a headset of some sort. Maybe from Sennheiser or some cheap Audio 90's

Desktop Microphone Black
Cons:None

Pros:Super CheapWorks Fine
Comment:
The workmanship is somewhat cheap on the plastic stand, but it works just fine.Cord is a good length, the stand is adjustable and very firm. Not too loose like some other models.Note that the model in stock changes frequently.
