I wanted to use this, as an attorney, to dictate onto my Mac using the Legal version of Dragon. Turns out that the dragon software doesn’t work on Mac! Can’t actually evaluate how the product works, as I returned it.

As far as speech recognition, this is the best SpeechMike and amongst the best microphones that I have used ever. Excellent quality with almost 99% accuracy. And the trackball function is fairly decent. It is very ergonomic and comfortable to use. Used with Stanley Hardware 6-Inch Lifespan Heavy Strap Hinge, Zinc Plated #141500700 , it becomes a table microphone. Motion sensing mute function is very useful. Over the years, I have used 3 previous versions of SpeechMike microphones, and after using them for a year or two, I had to discard them because the cable connection with microphone frayed where it connects with the microphone. Finally, they have made the USB cable replaceable, now it plugs into the microphone. The firmware is also upgradable now. In theory, there is Mac software too. This microphone has several programmable buttons - supposedly. But the Philips Device Control software has gotten much worse. It was always buggy, but the the version available as of now is really the worst. After using the software for a while, the buttons stop working. So you have to exit the Device Control Center software and start it all over again. Very annoying and just defeats the purpose of creating the buttons that can be customized. The other two competitors to SpeechMike for handheld voice recognition, as of now, are Dictaphone PowerMic II Handheld USB Dictation Microphone (Without Scanner) and Grundig Digta SonicMic 2 . PowerMic II needs no software to install, works exclusively with Dragon Medical and you cannot use it with any other version of Dragon Naturally Speaking or any other software, unlike SpeechMike, which can theoretically be programmed to work with any software. The speech recognition accuracy of Grundig is not as good as the other two, but it is the least expensive. Both these have a ThinkPad like trackpoint rather than a trackball. So, if you are looking for speech recognition accuracy, then so far, I have not found anything to beat SpeechMike. But Philips really needs to improve the glitchy software.

I previously purchased the Grundig Digta SonicMic - the direct competitor to the Philips SpeechMike. The Grundig SonicMic, was great, high quality German construction. It worked well. But I eventually decide to give this Philips SpeechMike a try. I'm glad I did. It seems built specifically for voice to text dictation, the ergonomics are great, it feels good in the hands, and the buttons and trackball are pretty responsive The only drawback, and this does irritate me, is the Philips control program that you need to install in order to really effectively use the microphone. It is slightly glitchy, but only slightly on my Windows 10 core i7 machine. It also keeps trying to update itself for the Internet, and try as hard as I can I cannot disable that feature. That irritates me. But the microphone itself is rocksolid, I haven't decided if I like it better than the Grundig Digta SonicMic, but I will say the Philips SpeechMike LFH-3500 is a very high quality and well-made microphone. If your budget permits it, then it is probably the best handheld that you'll find. If budget is an issue they go for the Grundig, because it seems to perform almost as well as the Philips, but at a lower price-point. if you are purchasing this to use with Dragon NaturallySpeaking, or the built-in Windows speech to text feature, it will work very well. At the end of the day, dictation is mostly about your elocution, and voice delivery. The hardware is just what gives it that extra edge, in terms of accuracy. If you have not trained yourself to be a precise in your dictation then the hardware won't help you very much. But if you can get the skill of dictation itself down, reliably, then hardware like this can definitely help you get an extra edge.

The SpeechMike comes without a serial number on the back. Someone, somewhere prior to it arriving here took the time to remove the serial number. When I went to the Philips website I couldn't download the needed software (Apple notes that their certificate isn't up to date). I emailed Philips customer service. But, lo and behold these things don't have a serial number so buyer beware! Fortunately, Amazon has its return policy and I can return the SpeechMike. Whew! Moving on to a seller that sells products with a serial number.

This is definitely better quality than its predecessors. I would have preferred a less smooth case on the microphone or perhaps some rubberized surface to help grip it. Also, the cord is too stiff. There is the ability to have the mic turn off when the unit is in the horizontal position, but if you are holding it at too much of an angle while dictating rather than fully upright, the mic will turn off and some of the dictation will be missed. I will either have to train myself not to tilt it while in use or disable this feature (which is a nice touch when you set the mic down on the desk so it does not keep recording background conversation). It is a bit overpriced.
