Neat little mic, works great. I did need an additional dongle to attach it to my iPhone, but it just works directly after plugging it in. I do notice the sound being a bit soft, but the quality is clear enough for me to bump it up in post.

Where to start. I bought this product 2 months ago and have been giving it my honest try and there are too many critical things that I cannot overlook to recommend it. Here are the cons:1) Faint clicking noise in the audio recordings:I have tried two cameras with multiple gain settings (GH5ii/ZV1) adjusting the onboard camera gain settings and the mic itself (ANR active/inactive) and I can't get it to go away. If it weren't for this I could stomach the other shortcomings but clean audio should be priority number one.2) Sometimes mic wont turn on:There are some instances where I found that the mic will straight up not turn on. I have found that the auto on/off feature that turns the mic on/off when the camera power is on/off is the culprit. If you cant turn your mic on with this enabled you have to plug in the mic and charge it and turn on the mic from there to get it working again. I encountered this issue shooting in the field and the mic was rendered useless for that shoot. Now I am left just leaving the auto on/off feature completely disabled to avoid this issue.3) Bluetooth connectivity is awful:A lot of the video reviews that are still up mention bluetooth connectivity being finicky. I thought maybe it was user error but for the life of me I cannot get the phone app to connect to the mic. It will maybe connect after 5 times if I am lucky. This is the only way to turn on/off the active noise cancellation. I will try resetting my phone, turning bluetooth on and off on my phone, turning the mic on and off and then turning on bluetooth. For a million dollars I could not even say I could make this mic connect two my phone two times in a row successfully.There are some pros after all of this but these should not matter due to the fact the first 3 issues make this product un-buyable but here they are.The sound is actually decent (sans faint clicking), I like that you can input another audio source via 3.5mm jack and record on the second channel (main reason why I bought this mic), and the battery from what I can tell lasts a decent while. Other than that go with something else.

The mic does a great job enhancing the audio on my cell phone. The material and constructions is good. The one thing that bothers me, is that there is no notch to secure the cord like the Rode version does. The mic also tends to drop forward and down, even without the dead cat on. If there was notch to secure the cord, the cord could help support the mic and keep it straight.

Like it very much. The Deadcat cuts out pretty much all the noise. I live in West Texas where the wind is always blowing.

Maybe the microphone on Apple's iPhone is pretty good to begin with. But I wanted to try recording some nature sounds. This JOBY microphone is not better than the built-in iPhone microphone. And, to me, seems worse. Certainly it makes no sense to spend a dime on this if your phone has a built-in mic.

Alles dabei. Super Preis. Hobbyqualität. Wer besseren Klang will, muss mehr ausgeben.

I was hesitant at first to get this cause the well known and used rhode mic was what I was after but out of stock so I seen this and it was cheaper to my surprise I can’t really even tell any difference between the 2. This joby has worked perfect since I got it and I’ve used it in numerous settings on multiple devices from action cams to cell phones to an osmo pocket.

I really like this little mic and the clip-in holding device it has the fluffy baffle seems to work well I've managed to get some quite nice recordings with it but if you do have a modern phone like for instance I have an S20 you will need a good quality adaptor you can buy a straightforward adaptor that just plugs into your charging point this will work for a mic or headphones or you can get the adaptor that allows you to still plug your charger into as well well while also having the adaptor for the mic but for all round general use I found it very suitable

I like that it doesn't run off a battery like the one on the camera I have.
