    • The quality of sound is great.
Color: Textured White
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. The quality of sound is great. As a teacher, I have been working on "flipping" my classroom by making instructional videos. Some of my students had complained that the quality of sound on my videos was low because I was just using the built-in mic on my laptop. I debated on whether getting a USB headset or the Blue Snowball. The microphone worked just as described, no drivers to install or special software. We decided to test it right out of the box and I am glad I made this choice. ... show more

    • This is the microphone you cheap teenager with big YouTube dreams. Stop looking.
Color: Textured White
I absolutely hate reading reviews of products that are made right after receiving a product and are about how fantastic the item was out of the box and then looking at the more informed reviews that show a product has "given out" or experienced serious "wear and tear" over time. Anyone who purchases finicky equipment like headphones, mics, controllers, etc. knows what I am talking about. So I'll tell you that I bought this product several years ago and waited until recently to give my review. - This microphone is spectacular. - When I bought this microphone, I had dreams of putting up commentaries of Xbox gameplay for games like COD and Halo and I needed a cheaper option with superior quality. I was a kid in high school and sacrificing quality for price was the roughest reality to face and so efficiency for price became the name of the game and boy, did this microphone deliver! - I am in my (hopefully) last year of college now and this microphone has been a desk staple in many different rooms now, it is EASILY adjustable and any space it requires is COMPLETELY warranted by the microphone's importance in your setup (but if you were wondering, it's about the same space on the desk as a router but of course takes more space because of vertical height). - As for quality, I am still in awe of it for the price I paid. It's crystal clear and my mouth doesn't need to be near it at all. It's now primarily used for Skype calls with friends (old dreams, they do die hard don't they?) and I easily have the clearest voice of everyone EACH AND EVERY call. Granted, I imagine there are without a doubt better microphones out there with better audio pick up that will easily beat out this microphone, this device is on par and does more than just "get the job done". - You can leave this microphone on your desk away from your face and not even talk into it and be actively heard in a Skype chat etc. - As for the physical quality, this microphone is still near the condition I received it in! The cable is thick and extremely sturdy, the plastic on the "Snowball" could have gotten marked if I was reckless, but it's hard and I don't see it ever getting more than marked (I don't see it cracking or puncturing). The weakest part of the microphone is the bottom stand it sits on and I only say that in order to fully inform you before you purchase the product, what the weakest part of it is (the bottom stand is in no way deficient or flimsy, it's just simply the least strong part by a small margin). - I highly recommend getting a Pop Filter with this product though to maintain crystal clear audio clarity. This is only if you plan on talking INTO the microphone (which as I stated above, isn't even necessary) to maintain voice clarity and reduce any possible damage done by fugitive saliva. - When you buy the Blue Snowball Microphone, it is a lifetime purchase. You will not be needing a replacement for the rest of your life. That is quality and that gets my seal of approval. - Wiggle, OUT ... show more

    • ICE version is fine for gaming. Either way you have to buy an ON/OFF switch.
Color: Brushed Aluminium
Ok in hindsight I feel like I should have purchased the Snowball ICE microphone. Here is why. The ICE version is $20 dollars cheaper. The only thing it is missing is the conference call mode and -10db mode for instrument recording. Neither of these things is necessary for my usage, which is mainly VoIP communications for gaming. The $20 you save, you can put towards picking up a Microphone boom arm ($13-15~) a USB A to B adapter ($3-5) and a USB ON/OFF switch with extension cable ($13.90) With these 3 purchases, the microphone can be adjusted anywhere you please, and will have an ON/OFF switch, which even the $70 non ICE version is lacking. In conclusion, I spent $20 that I probably didn't need to. Not a big deal. With the Arm + Adapter + Switch this is a great microphone setup, and my friends all say it sounds really great on their end. Here are the links to the accessories I purchased with my Blue Snowball.
