FIFINE USB Microphone, Metal Condenser Recording Microphone for MAC OS, Windows, Cardioid Laptop Mic for Recording Vocals, Voice Overs, Streaming, Meeting and YouTube Videos-K669B

very impressed. i plugged this into my HP windows 11 laptop, expecting a confusing installation process, but nothing happened. so i go to my settings, look at the device manager, and the mic was already recognized, plus it automatically became the default. nice! i went to update the drivers, and it was already up to date. this is true plug and play. i got the white color, and it looks very sleek. i appreciate that it came with a mic stand because i would have totally forgotten about that. the sound is nice and clear, no buzzing or interference. if you're looking for a cheap budget mic, spend an extra $10 now and get this one instead. the quality is significantly better plus it'll last longer, it's a worthwhile investment.

Oh man where do I even begin with this microphone. I've had this microphone for about 5 years now. The quality is still absolutely amazing. I bought the separate fifine microphone arm and paired with this microphone, it has done me wonders. I can't stress it enough how much this microphone sounds, it still sounds amazing. It's also really easy to use it's just plug in play with any USB device and then boom you're connected. It also doesn't weight that much either which is a good thing. If you need a good, reliable, durable (I have dropped this thing a plethora of times), and good value microphone, I would recommend this one for sure. The black color is also very good, haven't had any paint come off

I purchased this mic for voice over work and I am pleasantly surprised. The mic is a definite step up from the K056 that I had earlier. My K056 was my go to mic when I was at my home office and I wanted another low cost alternative for when I am recording on the go. I also use a Blue Snowball but the large round shape of that mic and it's propensity to capture too mic background noise made it less than ideal for travel. This Fifine mic is much nicer than the K056 in almost every conceivable way except in the most important way. It's sound capture is pretty much identical to what I was getting from the previous model. The fact that the unit does not ship with a pop filter or foam wind cover is a major disadvantage considering the previous unit did ship with a cover. Aesthetically the mic is nicer looking with a black mesh rather than the gaudy gold, and the body of the mic is about half the size of it's predecessor. The mic only features an on-board volume control (rather than the volume and echo control featured on the K056) and the mic attaches directly to the tripod...so no more ugly plastic gator clip. The streamlined USB Direct cord rather than an XLR corded by USB and 38mm audio plug is much nicer and puts it on par with the Blue Snowball ICE in terms of quality and ease of use. At the end of the day the mic does exactly what it needs to do for half the cost of similar name brand mics... just be sure to pick up a pop filter and foam cover and you'll be very happy with this purchase.

Awesome. Works great for any price but was, unexpectedly surprised by the great sound. Easy to install and use

I’ve been genuinely impressed with the sound quality of this microphone, especially for the price. It delivers clear, crisp audio with minimal background noise, making it perfect for streaming, Zoom calls, or casual recording. Setup was effortless — truly plug-and-play with no complicated drivers. The metal build feels sturdy and premium, not cheap or flimsy. For anyone starting out or needing a reliable USB mic without breaking the bank, this is an excellent choice.

Holy cow this Mic is nice. I've played with microphones from 5$-1000$+ and to be honest there is no bigger diminishing returns than a microphone. There is also almost next to no price-quality correlation either. A 100$ mic can sound and act like a 2$ mic and a 30$ mic can act like a 200$ mic. If you don't believe me check out any of the tests where they blindfold people and compare. Majority of people fail to determine a difference. This thing is simply outstanding. More than you can ask for. The mic itself is STURDY. Metal stand, THICK polymer mic with a metal grille. Simple plug and play with a volume knob. That FUNCTIONS. A good majority of volume knobs dont really adjust that well. It's either full blast or nothing with most. This is perfect. I work in a noisy office and calling through this can turn down the background noise from those loud coworkers. This is great for someone just starting out with a mic or someone who is experienced with them. Simple plug and play no amps needed.

This mic right here, this is a little gem. For the price, you get very good audio quality in a very small and convenient package. Sturdy build, clear audio, plug it in, and start recording I love it. It's my go-to for everything, even voice acting gigs! Heads up for any would-be buyers, though. This thing picks up sounds, a LOT of sounds and has no built-in noise reduction of its own. If you plan on recording or voice acting, this bad boy will do it, but you will need to learn a bit of audio treatment on your own.

This is an excellent mic for the price, no doubt about that but it could be better! So I picked this up because I have a friend that uses one for his gaming/streaming needs and I wanted a secondary mic that wouldn't break the bank so I decided to check it out. My current primary mic is the AKG Lyra which is a lot more expensive yet sounds very similar (when only using front). Is this mic truly comparable to the Lyra or even a Blue Yeti, not really but it's close! Which enough was surprising given the price point. For example the Lyra's strength is capturing wide natural sounding audio which is why I like it. The 4 capsul array provides a lot of versatility and ultimately that's what you are paying for. The Blue Yeti on the other hand (which I've used) has a pretty unique sound signature that people (especially podcasters) love and will probably never stop using. It really emphasizes the lows in ones voice which can really produce a deep professional sounding "radio quality" voice. I do prefer a more natural sound which is why I like the Lyra but that is all about preference. This mic like the Lyra produces a fairly natural sound, I wouldn't say it's quite as detailed but the differences are subtle. Overall if I didn't want the 4 capsul array and just wanted 1 to do streams and podcasts I'd probably actually opt for the Fifine if it wasn't for 2 flaws I can't get over. First is the lack of a mute button. I actually don't like this on the Lyra either because the button feels flimsy and I don't like the feel of the click (it's plasticity and weak) but at least it has one. Second, is the simple fact that you can't disconnect the USB. This makes set up a nightmare. If you are setting up your mics on frames or a stand twisting the actual mic to speed up set up is a nightmare (and some frames you have to) because you have this cord you need to compensate for. This is not hard to do and shouldn't have added much to the overall cost of the mic when designing it (I imagine change) and I'd gladly pay an extra $5 for those 2 things. The Lyra & Yeti also allow monitoring but I would not expect that at this price point, so that's fine. Overall I still consider the Blue Yeti to be the streaming gold standard BUT if you are on a budget and what something that will capture your voice better than a cheap headset or onboard mic, this is it. I would also pair it with a good stand to get the distance between you and the mic to around a foot or a bit less, make sure gain is set accordingly (or volume as this says) and you're good. The tripod it comes with works but it's not ideal. If the had a disconnectable USB and mute button this would easily be 4 stars but if you can live without those things, like if this is going on one stand and you're binding a mute button to your keyboard, then this might be the absolute best deal for you.
