Alright round two for this review, I wrote a nice review... then amazon didn’t process it. End of rant.So, decent audio quality in my honest opinion is a very important thing to have... whether you are vlogging for YouTube, making films, or shooting weddings... people are more likely to tune out due to poor audio quality than poor video quality. That being said finding decent microphones can be pricy.Well I discovered the Moukey MCM-1, and well for a little over 20 bucks, it’s a decent little mic. A lot of reviews I’ve seen or read have said the mic had some reverb, or sounded canned.. but I didn’t have any issues at all to be honest and was really impressed with what I found.One thing that stuck out to me was the box it came in, it was built nicely. I know, I know... what does this have to do with the microphone, well it is just nice to know that this company takes the time to Package the product decently. The box was definitely tough and in a day and age where packages get tossed around like frisbees, I felt safe knowing the contents would be safe and not crushed. Opening the box I noticed that everything was packaged tightly in the box, giving it a little shake nothing really loved around... again a big sign of comfort.The mic itself is made of a metal casing, it definitely feels decent in my hand (get your mind out of the gutter.) it didn’t feel cheap, in other words, with a price point as low as 20 dollars I was half expecting a plastic case. It comes with a shock mount which is made of plastic... and it’s very rigid. Now of all the items this mic comes with the shock mount feels cheap, I honestly thought I was going to snap it in half when putting the mic in there but it went right in( ... get your head out of the gutter)! The mic! It comes with two cords, both are 3.5mm one is trrs- meant for cell phones or tablets, the other is a trs which is meant for dslrs or computers. It also comes with two wind screens, a dead cat which is kind of limp... (... I’m not even...) but DOES work. It fits on there well, and does a decent job. Although in very high winds I noticed it does rub against the mic which can cause some unnecessary noise. But you shouldn’t be using it during a wind storm. The other is a pop filter which is was really nice and again felt like it was made of quality and held up against a lot of elements. It’s just nice that Moukey includes all these as most mic companies seem to nickel and dime you for accessories. Out the gate you really don’t need to really buy anything for this, which is nice, kudos to you Moukey.Now I did compare this to the rode video micro which would be the equivalent. Now, it’s no rode... but it did hold its own and for a little under 20 dollars.. I’d say... put it in the cart.I have this mounted on top of my panasonic G7. It’s definitely better than the on camera mic. So whether you are a film maker, or YouTube novice, or you just want something better than your on board mic, this is worth looking into, especially for the price. I use it as a scratch track when I film my movies (I usually record audio separately.) it picks up the surrounding audio better and helps me easily sync audio from a separate source to the camera.As always this is my opinion, pick it up for yourself and give it a try.

I record video with my Google pixel which I thought had pretty good audio recording compared to my iPhone, but it was low quality enough someone pointed it out. I wasn't sure if this microphone was going to make any difference but I had to try it for the price. I recorded a video with it and compared it to my other video and there is an amazing difference! I didn't think my audio sounded that bad until I had something to compare it to. I no longer have an annoying swishing sound in the background of the audio and everything is so much more clear and crisp. Stops the pickup of background noise and fuzz. I have it a few feet from me on my android phone when I record and I can't believe how much it improves my sound quality. I don't have a hot shoe on my tripod so I kind of just balance it on top of my phone attached to the tripod because its small and light weight. I wish it came with a piece to attach to the phone. Other than that all the accessories were great. The wind muff is great for when I'm outside, it's like there is no wind and I'm in Oklahoma where there is always stong wind. It comes with a cord for the your phone jack or camera and a little velvet baggie. Im just shocked this little thing makes such a big difference.

I have a quality mirrorless camera whose internal microphone is surprisingly good. But I wanted to add an external mic to my kit and one that when mounted on the camera was more directional - eg would not pick up ambient noise from behind the camera. My test was subjective and I set the camera up in front of and facing away from the television and then videoed myself talking while standing about 20 feet in front of the camera. Testing with the camera's internal mic, the sound of the TV made it very difficult to hear myself talking. Testing with Moukey mic mounted on the camera was dramatically better with my voice losing a little fidelity but easily heard with the TV noise greatly subdued. Overall I was very pleasantly surprised at the improvement, the build quality of the mic, the small size and the easy mounting. I have no doubt there are better mics for a lot more money but this one provides high value for the money and I recommend it.

unfortunately I Recieved an obviously used product which is pretty frustrating. that being said, it was cheos enough that I can eventually (maybe) look past that flaw. just squeaked by getting 2 stars.
