The product is the most common, it could be worse.

Got pros: Sound quality is good. Replaceable cable. Quality build and materials. Its cons: There is no microphone mute button. Picks up all sounds in the room. The form factor is nice, but still uncomfortable. The wire, like from a printer, is quite thick.

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

Has pros: Great microphone! Even without a pop filter, the recording is excellent without unnecessary "p" "s" and other sounds. Recording quality is top notch. Its cons: Short leg. There is a model with a telescopic leg for a thousand more. I think it would fit better, but I spared the money.

Great value for money, one of the best offers.

Has some pros Let me tell you right now, I'm not a sound expert. Therefore, the opinion, rather, of a simple user who needed to voice several videos. The Blue Snowball iCE USB Microphone was selected based on reviews on related resources. Of the requirements, there was only a clear voice without distortion, a small (relative to an entry-level microphone) price and acceptable quality of the product itself. Before that, I used a lavalier wireless microphone (dynamic). Compared to this - the earth

Faulty microphone, no support

I bought this microphone to use for online piano lessons. After reading the reviews I thought it was a good choice. I've been using this for about 4 1/2 months and the sound quality I've received is dirty at best. He also has a problem with the volume: the sound goes up and down, loud at first, then it suddenly becomes quieter. I've checked the manual and I don't see any way to make adjustments. I have changed my computer settings so that the automatic volume control does not work. So I…

The best budget condenser microphone

This is a legitimate review on a product that I bought with my own money. I'm just posting this. Honestly, this is the best PC mic you can buy on a budget. I haven't found any cheaper condenser mics that work really well with the PC. Pros: - Crystal clear audio - you plug it into your computer and it works right out of the box, no setup required - only $40 - best mic in the price range Cons: - picks up some background noise, but you literally just adjust the mic sensitivity on your computer and

Absolutely terrible customer service

I bought this mic for my son. A few months after I got the mic it stopped picking up sound. I have contacted support and received permission to send the microphone in for repair or replacement. After returning the mic I received an email saying they received my return and will contact me in 2 days with an update. A few weeks later I still haven't heard anything. Finally, I tried logging into my account on their website to see if they posted a status update and their login system wasn't working.

Pros
  • Quick replacement
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Watch out for the blue microphone

This is an updated review as my journey with this awful thing hasn't stopped. When I first bought it in 2017, the mic worked great for 2 weeks. After these 2 weeks, my whole sound sounded like it was in an aquarium. I had to send it back the first and second time: Revain did an excellent job replacing defective microphones. The third time I had to contact the Blue Microphone company themselves, who took 3 months to reply to me. They only replied to my email when I sent a follow up email asking…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Crumpled

snowball! Now with snow sound effects!

(My video is a review but it speaks into this mic so you can hear the quality) I've never had a mic that picked up my voice properly. If I speak softly the sound disappears, if I speak high it cuts out. In contrast, this mic picks up everything I say without picking up that weird background hiss! I don't look like a true super specialist who knows what I'm talking about when it comes to mic quality, but I consider this one of the best tools I've tinkered with while tinkering. That is hard! The…

Looks good in some places, bad in others. Sounds Great

This is without a doubt the best and most fun microphone I have ever used. When I got this I tested it on skype which allows you to hear your own mic and for some reason it sounded way better than the reviews here and youtube which led me to believe. I really like this mic, but it has a few design flaws that are just really annoying. Pros: Very good stand. I've seen a few reviews where the stand had a bad reputation but that's kind of silly. This is a stand, it works, it has rubber feet so it…

I like everything, the quality is good and the price is reasonable.

You have to understand that I am very picky, I need cuts for further processing, all the shortcomings quickly come out when you try to squeeze the required level out of the record. Its clean recording is adequate, for recording an announcer's voice or gatherings in a discord, this microphone is ideal, and also ideal for any YouTube channel, because. and sounds within the normal range, and outwardly takes out. The design is cool. You can take it if you are not going to write vocals on it.

Pros
  • A friend bought for recording vocals at home. The sound has become better than when recording from an iPhone or from a stick for 200.
Cons
  • The sound is not worth the money. Compared to other condenser microphones, it is inferior even to 800 bmv connected to an entry-level sound card. Not to mention similarly priced microphones with an xlr connector. The noise level is high (noise will not be a problem in discord, because there are noise reduction algorithms), highs and mids are very sharp, there is little detail. I had a samson meteor in my closet, which I bought back in 2022 - so compared to this ball, its recording quality is better. You should not expect more from a USB microphone for such money, the price is quite justified.
