Help with Microphone under 30 Euros/Dollars
Posted by Mac_Magic@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 5 comments
My headset's mic has been busted for awhile and making calls is hell, so I just need something that pics up my voice in real time, not for videos or anything of the sort.
For this price, what would be the best recommendations?

new for 30€ is tuff, I had a mozos and GXT for that price and the hissing was unbereable.
You can definetly get a razer siren or hyperx Quadcast mic used for like 20-30€ on sites like "Vinted". I know gaming mics get a bad rep, but they are waaay better than no name brands.

I saw a Mars Gaming MMIC-SC for thirty. Is the brand good? I'll look into those on vinted, the problem is import feed. I've already checked and nobody is selling anything that fits locally.

I was looking at that mic too, one Spanish comment asunder a video from Mars faming themselves said it felt very toy like and had a small range, but maybe it was just them?
Did you buy it or do some more research on it?

OH BOY.
I did end up buying it somewhere else. The shop I was looking at only had pink at that price and in the meantime I found it in black at the same price in another store.
Problem: I didn't really have any way of knowing, but it had over a month shipping. Ok, fine. I waited.
It arrived last week, but for some reason I wasn't told? I had to go to their website to check the status and realize it had already been delivered.
Coincidentally that was today at the time of you asking this question, so I went to the store earlier today to finally pick it up.
Nothing. They didn't have my order and had NO IDEA where it even was. Technically they weren't the sellers, even though I bought it through them, so they said I can either have a refund or contact the seller myself to ask where the fuck is the mic.
I did send the seller an e-mail, but in the meantime I found a Razer Seiran X at another store for only 27,5€, used, but with a 5 years warranty period, so I am going there tomorrow to ask for the refund.
Tldr: FUCK WORTEN. I can update you on the x performance when I do get it.

Huh, that sucks man I'm sorry
Please do update me on the performance.. meanwhile I found the Mars Gaming one on Amazon so I will probably buy it from there and test it out, if it sucks I will just send it back and if it doesn't arrive Amazon will cover me.
I was thinking of publishing some kind of audio sample since no review shows how the mic actually sounds like TwT And I'm safe by the fact that Amazon will 100% have my back if something goes wrong lol
