I would say that the Sudotack is by far the best and most practical of those. The Razer one seems to be kinda in the way when playing and it's not really good enough for creating content like podcasts etc. The Sudotack not only sounds the best of them, but has an arm delivered with it, which makes it easier to place at you desk. So this would definitely be my choice.

Yeah the Sudotack takes the win for absolute sure.

Damn bro, this is the best Mic video I have seen, love how you switch them out so I can hear each one and background sounds. Amazing!

Thank you for this very informative yet brief overview of some entry level mics! I could hear the obvious difference in quality amongst the mics tested, but, being new to this, I found that all the mics, the "trash" ones included, were perfectly fine for lower budgets. I bought a mic "kit" very similar to the Sudotek one you featured with boom arm and accessories. I guess I will start to notice a difference once I've gone through the basic levels of voice recording. Again, thank you for this video!

Amazing video. The continuous speech during the audio comparison is better than anything else on youtube

I just paid for the Fifine, mainly because it came as a bigger package with a pop filter, shock mount and boom arm which made it simple. I chose it based on the multitude of reviews online and after seeing how it can sound with some OBS tweaking. Got to say props on the review, very in depth and accurate - will definitely recommend you to anyone who asks me about mics for getting started.

Thanks to this video I was able to find the right mic for me. This was by far the best video comparison for me and an actual budget mic. Decided on the Sudo will help with teaching lessons and the arm makes a great esthetic to my desk setup

Bought the Razer Seiren as my budget upgrade almost a year ago. I did it just as an inbetween till I got a better mic. I since haven't even thought about upgrading and I've definitely made my money back after using it for this long. For a long time solution, maybe not. But as a simple under 50 dollar solution that will hold you over till you're ready to buy a bigger and more robust Set up? Absolutely worth it. Fantastic video! Definitely reaffirmed my love for the Razer Serien Mini. Cheers.

I have the Sudotack in a box in my closet lolol. Guess I'm digging it out... So much work seems to have gone into this video. Thank you for the effort.

Thanks, a thorough and complete test. Nice job.

AMAZING REVIEW!! This was super helpful and very detailed! Thank you!!

I had the Tonar Q9 Microphone kit in my cart but after hearing the sudotack, not only is the audio better but it's $12 cheaper and comes with everything the tonar does. Thank you so much for this review!! Big thumbs up.

I appreciate you doing this. I was able to make the informed decision.

Great video, I loved the presentation and information shared. Thank you for all the hard work (can appreciate all the time setup/filming/setup) to show the comparisons.

Thank you for this! Its what i was looking for!

The Sudotack ST-800 sounds BY FAR the best imo. Thanks for the video, this was super helpful.

I have been looking everywhere for best budget mics and this video helps a lot. It helps me to compare the sounds betweeen the different mics and I might consider buying the Sudotack as it sounds amazing in my opinion. I have been using my cheap budget headphone mic and it sounds horrible. Thanks again!

Mate! Instant like, the way you start video and explanation is soo good.

Thanks for this laborious comparison. It might help many people to improve their audio and I appreciate such an effort.

I personally have a Fifine and honestly it sounds great, since the segment with the fifine on the boom arm was short, there was more emphasis on the sudotack. However with a simple pop filter the fifine sounds amazing even without a boom arm. Especially since it's like half the price.

Mate! You Explained Very well 👌

I’ve been using the Raleno M30 for a while now, and I think it still holds up as a good starter mic, but I definitely agree with the stand issue.

Some of these mics (including the fifine) have separate bundles which include the arm, so if you want an arm, you don't always have to buy them separately

youtube needs more people like this, you put so much effort into making such a high quality video. It's very refreshing to see a content creator care so much about the quality of the video. Keep up the good work (i know i am very late to this video)

thx so much for making this video! i wanted to go out to a gamestop tomorrow to buy a mic since it was the closest store to my house.. and this video really helped me out. i was originally thinking of buying a blue snowball there until i came across this video and i'd say the razer sieren really changed my mind

Thank you so much, this video really helped me decide! I'm gonna go with the Seiren Mini

I bought the sudotack thanks to this video! Edit: i can say that it's actually REALLY good!

I like the sound of the FiFine the most. Maybe a little biased, since I also own one for two years. But I prefer the flat sound. Sounds more pleasant in Zoom/Discord calls and it gives you way more flexibility in post production

Dude this video is amazing. Very nice and spot-on comparison.
