Review on Saramonic Female Microphone Extension Smartphone by Drew Diaz

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are signal interference issues, people can hear my sound through my microphone.

For starters, the cable isn't exactly 16 feet long, but closer to 5 meters (roughly 16 feet 5 inches) if you need that info . I used this product for a small project so I can use a headset with a 3.5mm headphone/mic (for better mic quality than the mic built into my Rift S) when playing VR. It works as expected and keeps the cables secure. , but the problem with this product is that the audio output signal leaks into the audio input. I noticed this when testing the cable by simply enabling the "Listen to device" option for my microphone in Windows. It's not very noticeable and is filtered out by noise reduction algorithms like Krisp (via Discord), but that worries me. I think 3/5 stars is appropriate for that. If the wires in the cable were properly isolated from each other I would happily give 5/5 stars.

Pros
  • Designed to increase the distance between a TRRS mic and a smartphone
Cons
  • Not bad
