Good value for money, I recommend it.

In general, I do not really recommend this micro for purchase if you do not want to play a sort of "lottery" - marriage or not marriage. Both of my micros were exactly that with a factory marriage, and both marriages showed themselves within a week after the start of use. I don't intend to buy any more Samson microphones. Fortunately, I managed to get some money back by selling the first micro (it was not taken away when the second defective micro was delivered - apparently, the cost is cheaper than shipping from 2022 to the USA).
I highly recommend that you do not skimp and buy a good audio interface, such as Scarlet and Rode PODMIC. It will not be much more expensive, but much more reliable and the sound is better. Even if you buy this micro from the USA, it is no longer worth your money.

 I have already removed the stand far away in the box, so it is not in the photo. On the first day, I hung it on my arm.

Pros

-Sound. The mids are somewhat over-boosted, giving a "radio" tone. In general, the sound is quite clear, but do not forget that this is a condenser micro - it catches everything. -Build quality, metal case. - The presence of an instrumental input. Can be used as an audio interface for guitar. -Many volume control options. Namely: the micro itself, the instrument input and the monitor / PC. Also, the ability to turn on / off the monitor with a physical switch, change the micro from mono to stereo (some of the sides seem to be output as a connected instrument) and control capture patterns - cardioid, omnidirectional and figure 8.

Cons

- The reliability of the electronic filling raises questions for me. 2 times I had problems with this micro. For the first time, the direct monitor / audio output through the PC stopped working for me, but at the same time the micro itself worked. Changed. Took 9 months, but changed. They sent it from the USA, and for some reason it ended up at the 2022 Post, although I bought it with delivery by courier, and in general they didn’t notify me that I had to pick it up at the post office. So that was the marriage. Now again the marriage, but this time they don’t even answer the soap. Micro just takes. And freezes. It is necessary to disconnect and connect the cable so that it works again, "reboot" the microphone. It happens randomly and, because. I use a separate DAC for audio, very hard to understand. What if it happens during the stream? OBS loses him when he shows off. And this is my 2 OUT of 2 marriage. 2 OUT 2, DAMN IT!
