Stand-up
The Mantis is equipped with a tripod stand and allows for angle adjustment of the microphone. This enables you to use the microphone easily in the most comfortable way possible. The filter ensures that you are ready for clear sound reproduction.
Success is in your hands
Thanks to the 1.5-meter cable, you can place the Mantis anywhere. Don't want to be stuck behind your desk? The Mantis can also be used without the tripod, simply by holding the microphone in your hand. Sing, dance, or record to the top!

It is good for its price.
I use it for videos on YouTube and for calls with friends.
The sound quality is good although everything can be heard, for example, the keyboard can be heard while typing, although it is not a big problem as it is not loud and if you put it far away, it can hardly be heard at all.
For its price (13 euros during Black Friday period) simply perfect!!!
There are definitely much more high-quality microphones, but at such price level I don't think so...
For its price, it is a very good choice. I have had it for 3 years and it doesn't have any issues, and it has a pretty clear sound. However, if you put it far away, the sound from the peripherals becomes quite loud
Yes, the background noise is very audible, so it is better to be in a quiet room and lower the sound on the microphone, around 58 to 63 is fine, and personally, I don't think the pop filter is necessary at all. If you are close to the microphone and not shouting, the sound doesn't get distorted when saying words with "P" or "S". When I first put on the microphone, there was no noise in the background, and I was amazed at how good it sounded. You are doing something very wrong, it can't be any other way.
A small edit: I realized that the microphone was upside down all this time (it is visible from the stickers on the back), and as soon as I turned it around, I saw how loud it sounded, not clearer, just louder. And when I said words with "P" or "B", the sound was distorted. I recommend putting the microphone upside down (yes, I know it sounds silly) and trying to speak into it, that is, getting as close as possible, and you will simply see how much the sound changes (quieter, but the sound doesn't get distorted)
3 out of 10 times that I made a call, I hear complaints about the sound quality in the conversation. Value for money, usually you get what you pay for.
It's terrible with this money, get another one, I recommend the Tracer Studio Pro. It doesn't work at all, I bought it for my classes and when I use the camera, it doesn't let me adjust anything. What a waste
A very mediocre microphone from the moment the Razer Seiren Mini exists, I would not recommend it at all. It captures the slightest noise and overall the sound is quite distorted.
Christmas gift 2019, it no longer gives sound signal, the cable is nowhere to be found.. tested on other computers and nothing.. a shame after one year...
Very good sound from what I have been told, those who listen to me. Sound isolation is a bit of a problem, anything that is heard a little far away will also be heard on the microphone. But for this price, I don't know if there is something similar. However, it satisfies me. I sound clear in my classes, and when I curse at friends, they hear me very well.
So I've had the microphone for 2-3 months now (worth noting that I bought it on a 20 euro discount) and here's a review so far:
Pros: The pod underneath is very convenient and has been extremely helpful for me since I have a small desk. The assembly was very easy with detailed instructions. In terms of sound recording, it's great. Whether it's half a meter away or on the other side of the room, the volume and sound quality are the same. The package I received was very well-packaged for its price.
Cons: The stand that comes with the package is very small, even for a microphone of this size. It only has one USB type for connecting to a PC. The sound isolation is... the worst, meaning that no matter where I sit in the room, you can hear everything and everyone in the background.
Overall: It's a very low-budget microphone for its price, and it's decent, but I wouldn't recommend it for YouTube videos or streaming as advertised in the promo.
I bought the microphone during Christmas 2019 and have been using it on a daily basis for voice calls with friends, YouTube videos, streaming on Twitch, and now with the quarantine, for online classes. The construction of the product is mostly plastic, except for some parts of the microphone which are made of iron. Nonetheless, the tripod is sturdy and has not caused me any problems. The microphone is very good, it does not distort the sounds, and it produces a clear and crystal-clear sound. It does not need to be in front of the mouth to detect the sound of the voice.
Unfortunately, it does not isolate the sounds at all, resulting in the conversations from the adjacent room being audible. For online classes and voice calls with friends, it is an excellent microphone because it has the mute or push-to-talk function, but for YouTube videos and streaming on Twitch, it was difficult for me because the microphone is constantly on, resulting in everything from the adjacent room being heard. If I had soundproofing materials in the room, maybe things would be better.
What the microphone offers at this price is extraordinary. It is one of the best value-for-money microphones, and I recommend it to those who want an affordable but good microphone for simple use. For YouTube videos and streaming on Twitch, it is better to invest in a better microphone.
I personally bought it now during the quarantine for online classes as I didn't want to wear headphones all day. I listened to the lesson from the speaker and the headset isolated the echo perfectly without any interference. It never failed to pick up when I spoke and everything worked perfectly. Additionally, I tried streaming something on YouTube and the sound was good, the user not perfectly crystal clear but definitely satisfactory
In the 5 days that I have had it in my possession, I have noticed one negative aspect. It does not isolate the sounds at all, resulting in even the slightest noise being heard in the room and even at a close distance, which makes it difficult for me as I bought the microphone for streaming.
edit(30/3/20): Unfortunately, this issue with isolation has bothered me. Imagine that, now with online classes, you can hear even the person talking on the phone downstairs during the call and not just that. As I stream and make videos on YouTube in general, I tried to fix this through the streamlabs that I use, but no matter what I did, there was minimal to no difference.
It is particularly good for its price (I bought it for 15€ during Black Friday). I recommend it to those who want to start getting into YouTube, Twitch, etc. but for simple conversation between friends, it would be a bit unnecessary.
