BOYA USB Type-C Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Mic for Android iOS USB Device Video Recording YouTube/Interview/Video Conference/Podcast Broadcast

I often struggle to get my mac to recognize it and the input volume is often automatically set at minimum

The media could not be loaded.  I have been looking for a Type C Wired Lavaliere Mic for quite some time and stumbled across this one. In my video demo, I am using my Google Pixel 2XL and the mic makes a very big difference. I am impressed with the sound quality. It gives your voice a much richer sound. You get 20 feet of cable so you have plenty of space to work with and you get a wind screen as well. Overall, I am pleased with this mic. It does come with a nice case to carry your mic so you can be sure to protect it when you are not using it.

Got this for my pixel XL as it was the only one with the proper plug. It has good length on the cable too. Sadly my audio seemed to cut out/blur when i was recording a live stream.

So simple and practical.

I've tried this microphone on multiple devices, and every single video ends up with an awful crackling from start to finish. There is no option to return my order, and now I have an expensive and useless piece of equipment. In order for the videos I take to be usable, I have to strip the audio, fix it, stitch it back on to the original and THEN proceed with the actual editing. A huge headache and hassle.

Got this for a new iPad Air (C connector) and the iPad won't recognize it. so a waste.

It was great until it started crackling and then it got better again. But I need a product that works all the time, not just when it feels like it.

Great product
