abunda_amazon_reviews I bought this even though it was a bit bulky, and I had to return it to GoPro due to the loose 3.5 mm female input slot. Could barely hold the mic male 3.5 mm input. It also made a slight consistent helicopter noise, and it would occasionally record without sound. I informed GoPro and they sent me a new one, and it made a LOUD helicopter sound, and it would consistently record without sound if you used the record button. For the adapter to record with sound consistently you had to use your cell phone app. However the consistent helicopter like popping noise was extremely loud and unbearable. Save your money and buy the: Moto Z Type C to 3.5mm Headphone Audio Adapter, 2 Pack USB-C to 3.5mm for $7.99 on Amazon. Works great!!;;Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;LOUD CONSISTENT HELICOPTER LIKE POPPING NOISE. MULTIPLE ISSUES!!;;Antwan M. Williams;;;Works great if you set it up properly. The adapter is bulky - no doubt about that! It fits well and it works well. No sound issues and the mic I use (Rode) sounds amazing with my Hero 6. There are a LOT of other reviews on here that say you can use some cheap headphone adapter that works with Moto z or other devices - WRONG! DO NOT listen to those reviews, I made that mistake and just got my refund after wasting my time ordering all kinds of products that do NOT work. It sucks, because this is way over priced and it's bulky, but it works and there are no sound or connection issues. Sometimes the seller changes the product without updating the listing so they can keep the reviews, but if that was the case, I think this seller would have been better off listing this as a new product. A lot of people mentioned using this with their session or hero 4... I don't even think that's possible because this adapter is USB C. While I hate the size and price, I had to write a review that clearly explains who this is for and what to expect. That is the reason I gave it 5 stars - because no one else did. Ignore the other reviews because they are very misleading.;;Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;This is ONLY meant to be used with Hero 5, Hero6 and Hero 7;;5MIN2GG;;;It pissed me off when I found out the adapter only works with TRS microphones. If you don't know what a TRS male 3.5 cable is, I don't blame you: it's a headphone cable with three sections, and a TRRS headphone cable had four sections. So if you have a TRRS microphone you need to buy a TRRS to TRS adapter (I recommend the MOVO adapter) for it to work with the Gopro Microphone adapter. I wish they had included one with this overpriced product, or even mentioned this on their product page so their customers don't have to waste their time figuring out how to get their microphone to work, and then having to spend more money.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2018;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;BEFORE YOU BUY, KNOW THIS ONLY WORKS WITH A TRS 3.5 MICROPHONE;;John Slade;;;I was about ready to absolutely trash this device in a review, and then return it. After spending forty bucks, I was really disappointed. It didn't work at all. But then I thought I'd be fair, and try a different approach. If you plug this GoPro Pro 3.5mm Mic Adapter into the camera along with, say, a lapel mic, and then turn on the camera to start recording, it won't work. Not at all. It's not that it will record poppy, scratchy, bad, or poor quality sound. It won't record sound at ALL. However, if you power up the camera, then plug the adapter and mic in, it WILL record high-quality sound (assuming that you've got, say, a high-quality lapel mic). Garbage in = garbage out (so invest in a good mic). But don't blame the adapter. I tested this device not only with the new GoPro HERO (2018) but also the GoPro HERO5 Session. It worked with both cameras. However, it would appear that the cameras need to recognize the adapter and then the insertion of a 3.5mm mic or other input before it will allow recording with an external device. I do have one complaint though, and that's the reason for the 4/5 star rating. This thing is overpriced. You know it, I know it, and GoPro knows it. They could have built a mic jack into the camera, or sell this adapter for five bucks. They are gouging us, but they know they can because no one else makes a reliable and working GoPro mic adapter. Still, I'm keeping mine. The internal GoPro mics are horrible, and this gives me crystal-clear audio using a lapel mic.

If you're going to trap people into this adapter, at least make it more user friendly.;;Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Terrible but you have to get it. GoPro sucker punch!;;scott;;;The mic adapter for the gopro 5 works great, but the large size makes it difficult to rig. No matter what tripod or mount that I use, it's hard to figure out where to put the large adapter. It seems to be in the way no matter how I got it. Unfortunately this is the only device that will allow a mic to be used with the gopro 5 or 6. Earlier models had aftermarket adapters but Gopro has made it where only theirs works now.

Simply put, it just doesn't work reliably enough to warrant buying it. The mic jack was so poorly designed that it doesn't even make the proper connection to the plug. 75% of the time any no audio is actually collected. If you're doing an interview or recording any video where audio is important, DO NOT RELY ON THIS. I cannot tell you how many times I've thought everything was perfect, only to find out it never recorded the audio. The worst part about it, there's no way to check if it's working until you review it on the camera after recording or uploaded the video. The only reason I've continued using it is because I'm not aware of a better solution incorporate an external mic :/;;Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2018;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;BUYERS BEWARE!!!!;;Ben C;;;There is something wrong with 3.5mm female connection on this adapter. My Rode VideoMic Me works perfectly with my phone, but if I plug it all the way into this adapter the sound doesn't work. If I pull the Rode VideoMic out of the adapter about 1 click it works, but it is on the verge of being disconnected. At this point, for my purposes I consider the one I have unusable. This maybe a quality control issue with some of them as I have found a few others online have the same issue. Now I am out $50 :(.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;BEWARE there maybe a Quality Control Issue with the 3.5mm female connector on this adapter.;;John M. Dunn
