The best iPhone interview microphone on the market.

4.5 stars. An improvement over the previous model, but still some things could be improved. It can be difficult to plug a cable into a USB port, you need to be perfectly aligned or forget it. There's still nothing holding the cord in place, so a slight tug can pull it to the point where it stops working (usually without you knowing).

This microphone will be one of the last you will ever buy.

The sound picked up by this microphone is amazing. We now have 2 iMic in store because mine was always "borrowed". It's well made and convincingly heavy. This is not a cheap plastic microphone. This microphone is a reliable workhorse that will stand up to everyday use. Pros: The sound quality is amazing. He records silently as if he were working in a soundproof studio room. The microphone picks up sounds from front and side noise/fans, air conditioners, birds outside. all were eliminated. Cons:

Pros
  • Condenser Microphones
Cons
  • Long Delivery Time

Two stars because the mic works and appears to be of normal quality but does not work at all as advertised and is not supported. DETAILS SiOS incorrectly identifies this microphone as a "headset" and routes audio playback from the iPad/iPhone through the microphone's built-in headphone…
