Fifine USB Lavalier Lapel Microphone, Clip-on Cardioid Condenser Computer Mic Plug and Play USB Microphone with Sound Card for PC and Mac-K053

This Microphone is a great Budge Mic for anyone that is looking to improve audio quality, its small form factor and the fact that it is a USB Mic means it is very portable and very accessible for many devices, form PC's to Phones and Tablets it is a decent choice. I personally was actually surprised by the sound quality, it was crisp and clear and had very little background noise to it. I tested it both on my pc, and on my Moto Droid Turbo using a USB adapter, whereas on the PC the sound was good, it sounded a little flat but that just may be that I am used to a Dynamic Range Mic running through a mixer for most of my video recording needs. It really shined when I hooked it to my smartphone the difference between the onboard microphone and the k053 was night and day, the onboard mic picked up an almost overbearing amount of background noise from my house, that I myself can not even hear, whereas the K053 was pristine. In short for its price range it is a great buy, and I would definitely recommend it to my friends if they asked about a budget mic.

This is a high performance microphone and as soon as I started using it, I received compliments on how clear and lifelike my voice was on Zoom calls, etc. It's also just cool to have a nearly invisible lapel microphone, it looks very professional compared to a headset. The size of the USB dongle is fairly large but there is a good reason. It has a 3.5mm output jack and a USB sound card built in. The audio out uses echo cancellation, so that means you could use large desktop speakers with this microphone and not experience echo. (I use wired earbuds, so I can't confirm the anti-echo performance. But the audio out jack is very handy for my wired earbuds.) The only downside is, as a high-performance microphone, you need to handle it carefully. Do not throw it around like you would a pair of earbuds. I did 2 things that broke it: (1) I removed the foam windscreen so the mic would be less visible in calls, and (2) I dropped it on the floor quite violently by mistake when I was grabbing it by the cable. The next day it did not work. However, it turns out Fifine has excellent customer service for a (presumably) Chinese company. I explained the situation and they shipped me a replacement in a matter of days. I like this microphone so I will take better care of it this time!

So I was sent this microphone for review. I generally that I have found most of the ones offered are omni directional and are mono. My current microphone for my audio and video editing workstation is a USB Marantz Professional MPM-2000u. It is a great mic and I love it however it is one of those mics that meant to be left at a recording area. So I have been consistently looking for a good option for recording when I am out and on the go, but still need decent audio quality. I was able to find that with the Fifine mic. So let's get into the pros and cons Pros: +Cost- For the quality of the mic the cost is extremely good and affordable +Sound Quality- the background noise that this picks up in much less than many of the other lavalier mics I have used in the past. +USB plug and play- This mic worked out of the box on Manjaro Linux (which is my recording workstation OS) this also was plug and play in Windows 10 as well. +Headphone jack- attached to usb adapter for microphone. +Build quality- is quite solid nothing bad or questionable about that +Works on Linux- Being that all my YouTube content is made on Linux this is a HUGE plus to me that I can not even begin to put into words. Cons: Size- the mic will be very noticeable it is much bigger than those offered by say Audio Technica Sound quality- I know I put this as a positive, but lavalier microphones, from my experience, of ereally really high audio quality cost way too much. So while this picks up far less background noise than say a other lav mics it still does pick up some. So overall my impression of this microphone has been extremely positive. This has been used for gaming and chatting on Mumble, Discord, video conferences on Zoom as well as in my a/v production for YouTube. It has unchained me from always having to record strictly at my studio and has allowed me to have decent audio quality on the go at an affordable price. That level of freedom at this price and quality is really hard to find much wrong. Well done Fifine, you have earned yourself a new customer who is looking forward to your other products.

I've been using regular microphones for the last couple years and never tried a lavalier mic. First of all, this is a perfect microphone to experiment with since it's not very expensive. But on top of that, it feels very premium. The microphone does not feel flimsy, it feels strong. The clip also feels very solid. The setup process is basically nothing, you just plug it in. That's it. The audio quality is alos very good. I did notice that it picked uo a lot of background noise, but if you use it with a program like Audacity, you can block out most of the background noise and keep the good stuff. (Audacity is free by the way) I really like how Fifine added a headphone jack into the USB. However, I wish it would've added some extra functionality. I believe you can only listen to the audio after you've recorded it. I though that with the headphone jack, you can listen to a preview of the audio as you talk, but that's not the case. It's not a huge deal for me, but that would've probably save some time for the people who commonly change settings for their recordings. Great product overall, I would definitely recommend it! Pros -Build Quality -Audio Quality - Setup Process - Headphone Jack Cons -Background noise pickup (easily fixed with Audacity)

Good recording sound

Leptop um için aldım çok pratik ve kullanışlı bir ürün.Normal PC dede İem kulaklıkla kullanıyorum.Ses kalitesi benim için gayet yeterli. Güzel bir ürün herkese tavsiye ederim

It's a bit chunky and the cord is a bit stiff but the sound is great for a home mic, certainly a huge improvement over the mic built into a webcam or laptop
