  • Crystal-Clear Voice That Stops the Lobby — Everyone Asks What Mic She’s Using
Color: White Pattern Name: Microphone
I purchased the Elgato Wave:3 (White) for my daughter as a Christmas gift, and it has been an absolute home run. The very first time she logged into a game after setting it up, her friends immediately stopped mid-conversation to ask, “What microphone are you using?” That alone says everything. The voice clarity is outstanding — clean, rich, and studio-level crisp. Compared to her previous USB microphone, the difference isn’t subtle at all. Background noise is dramatically reduced, her voice cuts through perfectly, and every word sounds natural and professional without any tinkering or complicated setup. The build quality is exactly what you’d expect from Elgato: solid, premium, and thoughtfully designed. Paired with her other Elgato gear, it elevates her entire streaming and gaming setup to a truly next-level experience. The Wave Link software is powerful yet intuitive, giving her full control over audio without frustration. Most importantly, she absolutely loves it — and when your mic becomes a conversation starter in every lobby, you know it’s doing something right. This is a phenomenal upgrade for anyone serious about streaming, gaming, or online communication. 5 stars without hesitation. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • Elgato Wave 3 Review
Color: Black Pattern Name: Microphone
It sounds amazing even without the software, but then with the wavelink software it is amazing, the noise removal is amazing, sound quality is amazing, it is light and made of a good material, volume is easy to control with the notches and the software. Super easy to connect, it’s just a plug right into the pc, I went with the black one and it looks pretty sleek, it is sturdy and doesn’t wobble. ... show more

  • Great mic, pretty good price
Color: Black Pattern Name: Microphone
Pros: - Mute button is nice. I was looking for a mic with a mute button, for when people enter my room unexpectedly while I'm talking to friends online. It works great. - Sounds great, even from a couple feet away and at a slight angle. I am not interested in keeping my mouth directly on a microphone, so I looked for one that was good at a slight distance. It also has a built in feature that removes sharp sibilant sounds, like "S" and "T". I haven't tested this feature extensively, but it seems to work well - no pop filter necessary. - Nice and thin, easy to keep on a desk. - USB-C, much better than the micro USB on my Blue Yeti Nano. The port on my Yeti Nano broke, which is why I had to buy a new mic in the first place. - Looks pretty, though that's subjective. I like the aesthetics quite a bit, looks modern and sleek. Cons - It's a bit pricey. I don't regret buying it at this price, but I wouldn't say it's a super competitive price either. Easier to justify for a livestreamer, less easy to justify just for Discord or Zoom. - Kinda tall. If I have it in front of me it blocks my view of my screen. However, I'm comparing it to my Yeti Nano, which is a particularly small mic. It's probably no taller than a full sized Blue Yeti or other similar mics. I keep it off to the side a bit which solves this issue, and it still sounds fine. Conclusion: I am happy with my purchase. It's a very welcome upgrade from my Blue Yeti Nano. You could probably find a better bang-for-your-buck mic, especially if you don't care about the features I do (size, mute button, USB-C). But if this mic lasts for years like my old mic did, then it will certainly have been worth the money. ... show more

  • Great quality, great sound
Color: Black Pattern Name: Microphone
This microphone has been awesome to use and have. Great clarity, easy to use, and really good background sound filtering. If you are used to a headset microphone, I understand the hesitation to move to something like this. But it's worth it. Dealing with a boom really isn't that big of a deal, especially since you can adjust the gain on the microphone and it does a great job of picking up voice even if you have the microphone a couple feet away from your face ... show more

  • Great sound quality, very sketchy mute button support in MacOS
Color: Black Pattern Name: Microphone
I bought this microphone because my HyperX Quadcast S was starting to act sketchy on my work laptop. Turned out that was actually an issue with my USB-C hub. Anyway, here's the thing: Yes, this microphone sounds pretty good. The headphone jack works REALLY well. I plugged my 250 ohm Beyerdynamic DT880s into it and it powered them loudly and clearly. The dial on the front acts as a headphone volume dial by default - this is awesome! Sound quality is great too. Similar to my Quadcast S honestly lol. Maybe a tiny bit bassier? Whatever. So I started out the next day looking forward to using it with my work computer, running MacOS Big Sur. The mic detected great, everyone heard it just fine. I tap the mute button on top.... and webex picks it up and mutes the output. ... wait what? I clicked the unmute button in webex and IT UNMUTED MY MICROPHONE. That's right. ElGato didn't use a HARDWARE MUTE BUTTON here. If you mute your microphone, everything on your computer knows. If you tap the mute button on top of the mic and the light is red, get this: The software can un-mute it at will. That sounds fantastic if you have a meeting host that decides to unmute you for some reason. Fantastic. I'm guessing they did that for better integration with their other products. Unfortunately, there's no way to change the behavior. I really don't like that, and because of that, I'll probably be returning this microphone. To add icing to the cake, the webex muting/unmuting is a little bit unpredictable. Sometimes webex follows the mute button, sometimes it doesn't. Teams worked about as well lol. Ok outside of that. It's a nice mic. The packaging is lovely. It comes with a sweet mic arm attachment adapter. The lights are very clear and again, the sound quality is fantastic. The volume dial is the best I've used. It's a decent amount smaller than my Quadcast S, which is already smaller than a Blue Yeti. If it weren't for that dodgy mute button behavior I'd really love this mic. Hopefully they fix that in a software update someday and give us a choice on how the mute button behaves. ... show more
