Overall Experience
I have been using this microphone for around 2 years. The quality of the recording is very clear. Also, it has an inbuilt noise cancellation feature. I did not face any issue with this mic.
I have used this microphone on my smartphone and laptop. And it works perfectly on every device but in some devices, you have to attach the 3.55mm pole to use this microphone.
Even some smartphones do not support external microphones by default in that case you have to install any third-party camera app.
So my overall experience with Maono AU-400 is very good. You should definitely try this mic.
Conclusion
So If you really need good microphone in low budget then you can go with Maono AU-400. This will be a good investment.
Thanks 🙂
