JOUNIVO USB Microphone for Computer, PC/Laptop Mic, Mute Button with LED Indicator, 360 Degree Gooseneck Design, Desktop Microphone for Streaming, Recording, Dictation, Podcasting, YouTube, JV610

I've spent quite a bit of time messing around with PC microphones and such over the years, and after trying, using, trying other microphones, going back to this one, I can feel confident is the statement that this is the BEST PC microphone you'll find out there under the $50.00 price point. I'd say it's probably better than some in the $70.00 range, if not comparable at-least. The microphone itself is simple and straightforward. It's simply an electret condenser element in the small head, and inside the weighted base is the amplification/power circuity to drive the element. It's a very simple and time tested design that works well. For under $20.00, this is a bargain. I own two of them on two different PC's and they both work flawless. I have the basic model with JUST the mute button. I didn't like the option of having a gain knob there, it's a little redundant to me when one can control their microphone sensitivity with Windows anyway.The audio quality of the microphone is excellent for most users. You're NOT going to get super high fidelity wide range audio with this microphone. What you ARE going to get though is clean, clear, communications grade audio that's perfect for Skype, Zoom, VOIP calls, basic speech recording, and the like. Higher audio quality is going to require a more expensive microphone obviously, that's just how microphones work. Don't let this deter you though. The audio quality and frequency response for basic use is exceptional.It's a winner. Highly recommend.

I’ve used it for about a week now in both clinic note dictations and using for online meetings. The microphone works great so far. I like it better than having to hold the dragon mic

My super picky tech teen says it’s not the best quality. I bought it for him to use for summer school last summer because he needed a mic (French class). It served its purpose and he is now using it months later for gaming with his friends so I’d say it must not be that bad. It’s plug and go and has a mute button that my son pushes every time I enter his room.

So you're not going to be streamer of the year using this mic, but that is not its intention. For the price it is a good quality mic for every day, casual, use. You can use it for zoom calls for work, or gaming on your PC. The sound quality is good...again, for the price. If you're looking for a professional level mic for streaming or capturing audio for a film this will not be for you.

Typing slow this microphone works perfectly gets every word right, spells every word correctly, and makes entering any text into my iMac desktop a breeze. I would highly recommend this product. For the price it’s a steel. Also has a new button. Just an overall great product if you would rather use text to speech instead of typing.

I had purchased a different USB stick looking microphone for my laptop and the sound quality wasn't great. I replaced it with this one. This microphone was easy to set up and use and has nice clean sound quality. I've been using it for voiceovers for screen recorded how to videos and everything comes through nice and clean. The cord is a good length and the audio comes through clear with no background noise issues or weird sounds.

When I first got this plug and play USB microphone it wouldn't work. I tried troubleshooting I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in I tried plugging it in a different USB port. Windows detected it and saw that it was there it just wasn't hearing any sound. So I tried it on another PC and eventually got it to work and then eventually I got it to work on my laptop. My analog plug-in microphone and my headset microphone and the microphone built into my laptop all work fine and then this j o u n i v o jv603p will suddenly go back to not hearing anything and I'll have to start over and troubleshoot and unplug it and plug it back in and get it to work again. as soon as it's working again I just assume it's going to be working when I actually go to use it and then when I go to use it I usually end up having to spend a half an hour trying to get it to work again. the amount of sound this microphone picks up is underwhelming compared to my wired microphones and the onboard microphone built into my laptop even with the microphone level at 100%. If I can figure out and recreate a root cause for when it stops working again I will update my review. That being said, I have encountered exactly one plug and play USB device in my lifetime that didn't work when I plugged it in and that would be this device. I was frustrated the day I got this product and it continues to frustrate me on a regular basis. Ways Windows describes this hardware include audio endpoint generic audio end point generic USB audio. under driver details Windows reports no driver files are required or have been loaded for this device. The manufacturers website has no information about drivers or a troubleshooting or support for this product.02032021 UPDATE: was working fine for the last day and this morning and Cortana responded to WIN + C just fine. This afternoon I tried and it wasn't working so I checked and it was not the default device because I had plugged in a USB sound card, so I made it the default device again. I noticed in the sound control panel that one green bar at the bottom was illustrated but there was no fluctuation or detection of sound. regardless the HD web camera microphone and the analog wired microphone and the onboard microphone on the laptop were all detecting sound and working properly. in this particular instance I was able to resolve the issue by getting up going over behind the laptop fiddling with wires unplugging the USB microphone waiting 10 seconds and then plugging the USB microphone back in like it's a modem from 2003. Regardless of default devices or unplugging or plugging in other audio devices with microphone capabilities the HD web camera, onboard microphone, and wired microphone all continue to operate indefinitely with no issues; however this USB microphone continues to simply stop working randomly forcing me to apparently unplug it and power cycle it and plug it back in which worked this time but may not work every time.02052021 UPDATE: so I could talk to Cortana yesterday and this morning just fine. No hardware or configuration changes. Went to do a voice command this afternoon and it didn't work and Cortana reported that the microphone was disabled. Not only was the microphone enabled and set as default but I could see sound input and hear sound input via voice meeter, even though sound control panel and windows showed no sound input.in this instance I was able to get Cortana to hear me afain by disabling the microphone and then re-enabling it.02062021 UPDATE: so I went to use Cortana again and she couldn't hear me. funny thing is sound was being detected in sound settings and in the sound control panel but Cortana was reporting that the microphone was disabled even though the microphone was enabled. Of course at this point I was ready to grab the box and ship this gift I received back to the place it came from but as it turns out the return window ended three days ago. in this particular instance I disabled and re-enabled the j o u n i v o jv603p several times and also unplugged it and plugged it into a different USB port and restarted my PC. While sound detection would seemingly randomly disappear and return in sound control panel and sound settings I still have yet to get Cortana to hear me today. Every time I click on the microphone or hit Windows cortana responds by saying that microphone disabled enable your input device in Windows sound settings.

I bought this for some conferencing my wife was doing. She set it up and went into her first meeting with a well working and clear audio for the meeting. Easy setup
