Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Mini Microphone for iPhone 3G/iPod/touch/classic
Customer Review: Mini Mic
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an amazing (little) gadget that delivers great sound reproduction. I set my iTouch on a table and used the mic as a PZM mic. It picked up all the people seated around the table with great clarity. This is a very sensitive mic and definitely worth the (cheap) price tag. As one other reviewer mentioned, it is quite small and probably easily lost. So care in securing it would be beneficial, but at the price, you could buy a half dozen if you are so inclined. Great product and convenient to use.Customer Review: May not fit well if you use a protective case outside of iPod Touch
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this because it is much cheaper than Switcheasy's excellent ThumbTacks microphone ($12.95), but because this mic lacks the proper shape to seat correctly into the microphone jack when the iPod touch is fitted with an protective case (mine is Switcheasy RebelTouch for iPod 2G), it does not work well. Look at the customer pictures for a comparison (on the left is ThumbTacks, and on the right is this Mini Microphone). If you do not use a protective case, then I think it would perform fine.Customer Review: Can't go wrong for $3.00
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a neat little device and works well. Granted I just got it less than 10 minutes ago, so if anything changes you better believe I will update this with every single flaw I find. It doesn't work for phone calls which is extremely disappointing since that's why I got it, but either way I can't complain too much when I paid less than 3 bucks and didn't have to pay for shipping.
If you need a microphone for your iPod but NOT to make phone calls you'd be stupid not to buy this.
Customer Review: Works beautifully with Skype
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a iPod Touch 8gb and I wanted to make calls with it so I bought this for a penny plus shipping! It works perfectly! And big thanks to the Amazon reviewers who explained you need to put Skype on speakerphone. A fantastic value, one of my best purchases on Amazon.
Update: One small nitpick is that the microphone part falls of the cap with the keychain ring easily. I would recommend you only put it in a very secure place and not your pocket where it could get out.
Customer Review: not worth it
Summary: 2 Stars
these little mics are so weak as to not be worth the little money you pay for them. They'd be ok if you wanted to let your kids experiment with recording (they're pretty indestructible), but if you need usable quality recordings for work or research, these aren't it. You need to hold them directly up to the speaker's mouth, for one thing, which ruins the atmosphere if you're doing oral history. Much better, for around $60, is the Mikey made by Blue for the iPod Touch.
