        As expected

        It's the product I ordered and it's exactly what I needed. The shop assistant's advice was very useful.

        A practical, simple and stable microphone.

        After a week of use, I am generally satisfied with this microphone. It is easy to mount, practical and the installation is quick. When playing online with friends, I needed a microphone to make myself heard and above all to replace my headset microphone. The exchanges are clearer, more fluid, I don't need to have the microphone too close to me and the fact that it is detected without installing a driver is highly appreciable. I think it's a shame that the frame is not detached from the mic and the muffling system is just put on, not attached to the stem. I'm currently training to record podcasts, it's a good start to do some testing but not to make recordings. It has a nice look, the tripod is stable and easy to use.

        A microphone that is at home anywhere!

        I received the Mantis microphone for testing.
        I was able to use it to capture sounds as well as to communicate during games. When I opened the box, when I assembled it - quite easy - no particular difficulty! As for the connection, ditto: the USB port allows you to connect it to a PC as well as a PS4!
        the device is quickly recognized!
        When capturing voices, no difficulty: the sound is correctly reproduced without having any parasitic noise.
        The ease of installation and use makes it a good microphone.
        As for the network game, the words are correctly transcribed and the quality is more than correct!

        One of the leaders in terms of quality and price

        I love it. This mic is very well priced and the voice sounds very clear and crystal clear, even when I whisper.
        It is incredibly easy to set up.

        This is probably the best deal you can get on a "small" budget

        The mic is mostly plastic but it has a great design and it is really sturdy if only on the little clamps to lock the base of the mic.

        The 2 drawbacks I could find were:
        - The relatively short USB cable. This mic is only new, so I hope the cable will be longer with the revised model in the near future
        - There is no physical button on the mic to turn on or off.
        This is without a doubt the best mic I've ever had and is perfect for gaming and streaming. Definitely a good buy and a good deal.

        I highly recommend for first time users

        I am very pleased with the service and the quality of the product.
        The delivery was very fast: ordered on Friday afternoon and received on Monday.
        The microphone is easy to use with its USB plug despite the fact that there are no instructions.
        I have been using it for a while now and it is very easy to use.
        I have not been able to use it on the PS5 perhaps due to a lack of information.
        When I was playing with friends it gave me some feedback.

        Very good product

        I'm a very connected person, and I like everything related to music, singing and video creation. I had the opportunity to test this microphone, and I can say that I'm very happy with it.
        It is easy to connect thanks to its USB port, easy to install and to transport as it takes up little space.
        It is very stable thanks to its three-pronged stand, which folds up for optimal storage, and that is a real plus! It is also multi-directional.
        Finally, the quality is there, so you can enjoy yourself while having fun, work in good conditions or any other situation.
        In short, it's a very good product, which I gladly recommend.

        A smooth microphone

        The mantis microphone is a practical tool. Its look is soft but sufficient, the tripod is solid and very useful to be able to converse at a good distance from the screen and have a good sound rendering. The presence of the anti-pop filter is a significant plus for a good quality of conversation. The microphone is easy to put on and take off thanks to a rubber band system that holds the microphone. I would have liked to have a second set of elastic bands just in case, although they seem to be of good quality. The microphone works by usb laptop (not detachable) with a good length of 150cm, for storage I would have preferred a detachable cable or better a wireless version. It is a good product that I recommend for those who regularly make audio recordings, otherwise its usefulness does not seem essential to me, I am happy to have received this microphone to test it

        Great mic!!!

        The Mantis has a very good sensitivity! It picks up sounds well without distorting them and without producing too much white noise. The counterpart being that you can hear some unwanted sounds. The rendering was not the same on this point according to the software I was using.
        The foam does not really attenuate the sounds because it is not placed in front of the microphone inputs. A foam that covers the microphone would certainly be more effective.
        On the other hand, the microphone is really practical! It can be tilted in all directions and can even be used by hand thanks to the 1.50m USB cable. The tripod is stable and ensures that the Mantis will not fall over due to an imbalance or even slip as the feet are non-slip.

        To conclude, this is a good microphone for a very reasonable budget. It is beautiful and looks professional! Very good for a beginner or a small budget!

        Does its job

        I tested this microphone for a week for a consumer test
        I was very pleased with the quality of the product.
        I was delighted when I opened it. The microphone has a nice design and the assembly is simple and fast.
        I'm very pleased with the quality of the sound. I've been using it for a while now and it's a good choice for gaming.
        But ... yes there is but the pop up filter is not stable enough and a blow on the desk makes it fall directly
        Also, as it tends to move, it doesn't do its job very well
        Otherwise good value for money

        Good quality

        I received a micro to test it, and here is my opinion after a week of use: First impression when I unpacked it, the product looked great: the packaging was beautiful with the embossed/glossed effects on the box, it looked like a professional material, I was eager to open it to test it. The luck of having the adjustable angle means that if you put it horizontally, the filter holds well. As for the rest, nothing to say. The wire is long enough to plug in for my taste, my interlocutors could hear me well (better than usual) without background noise. It's pretty nice, for gamers it does the job

        Good product for classic use

        I received this as a tester, after a week of use, this is what I can say about it:
        The design is as promised, it looks stylish on the desk (or wherever you put it), however, expect to take up a lot of space when using it, it takes a lot! But you can easily fold it up to put it away once it's finished, that's good.
        But that's not the main thing, the purpose of a microphone is to be heard. And on this side, no worries: microphone detected immediately, no need for adjustments on my side: it worked directly, good quality, the pop filter does the job, you can adjust the height/angle as you want. The USB cable is big enough to have the PC (or console) further away than The USB cable is big enough to have "the PC" (or console) further away from the chair/sofa and keep the microphone close to us to be heard. It allows you to arrange your corner according to your needs. For the time being, for a gaming/streaming mic, it does the job well, and the recordings will be good (maybe less than other more expensive mics).
        On the other hand, the big drawback for me is the solidity of the anti-pop. It's just sitting on the end of the stem, and the supplied nut is useless, or I really didn't understand how to fix it (where's the little mounting sheet you usually have and never use? I would have liked it for once...) But as far as I'm concerned, as you can't get the end of the filter through the rod, the filter remains wobbly and unstable. A wrong move, the desk shaking, a headbutt from the cat, and the filter ends up on the floor (great when you are talking)
        All in all, if you want to get into real recording without too much effort, for playback or for simple visios, go for it. If you're more into "pro" recording, you might want to move up a notch.
