Best PC Microphones of 2025

“I was looking for a budget-friendly microphone, and this one is a game-changer. The sound quality is exceptional, and I love how easy it was to set up. It fits perfectly on my desk, and the tap-to-mute feature is a lifesaver for quick silencing during streams.”

“Transitioning from a headset mic, I found this mic to be a great balance of functionality and affordability. The sound quality is significantly better, although I recommend getting a pop filter since it doesn't come with one. The setup was seamless, just plug and play!”

“I ditched my headset for this microphone, and I couldn't be happier! It's been working perfectly for over two years. Just a heads-up, it does pick up a lot of noise, but if you have an RTX graphics card, NVIDIA Broadcast works wonders for filtering out background sounds.”

"This microphone has significantly improved my audio quality. It's perfect for anyone just starting their channel!"

"After years of using a headset mic, I finally upgraded, and I'm blown away! The sound quality is incredible and rivals high-end options. I highly recommend this for streamers!"

"I previously owned a FIFINE mic, but this new one is a huge upgrade. The sound clarity is five times better, and it minimizes outside noise effectively."

"I've been searching for a solid microphone that won't break the bank, and I'm thrilled with the Razer Seiren V2 Pro. The sound quality is clear and rich, making my streams sound professional. Setting it up was a breeze with the plug-and-play USB connection, and I love the real-time mic monitoring and gain control for quick adjustments. Plus, the shock absorber works wonders during intense gaming sessions!"

"I chose the Razer Siren V2 X over the Mini because of the physical mute button. I found reviews mentioning that it sounds like a professional microphone, which reassured me about paying more for it. The software features are interesting, but I had to disable echo cancellation in Discord for it to work properly. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the V2 X and recommend using a pop filter for the best sound."

"Installation on my Razer Blade was quick and easy. I found the design to be simple and elegant, and the knobs are responsive. However, without the app, I can't tell the settings due to the lack of tactile feedback. The background noise is almost nonexistent, delivering a crisp sound. If you have a Razer computer, it's a great buy!"

"I used to own one of these and got this as a gift for someone, and they love it too. It's a super crisp and clear mic with a built-in pop filter and shock mount. The mic picks up sounds from all angles, so it may catch some background noise if there are kids or a group chatting. But if you have a private or gaming room, this is the best mic for its price range. It fits any basic arm stand, comes with its own stand, and has a touch screen mute button on top."

"Hands down, this is the best mic I have ever owned. I've had several mics, but HyperX is far superior in quality and design. I ordered one for myself, and my husband loved it so much that I got him one too! This mic has all the features you could want or need, is easy to use, and allows for perfect monitoring with a headset. It’s great for podcasting, too!"

"I've been using this product for almost a year for Discord calls, gaming, etc. No software setup is required, which is nice. The audio quality is great for casual use, although not extraordinary. The mute button is very useful and responsive. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase; it’s an excellent microphone for casual use."

"This mic is incredibly affordable at $34.95 and meets all my needs. The clarity is outstanding, especially for the price. I appreciate the desktop stand and boom arm option. The light shows with various colors are a fun touch. The directionality is excellent, perfect for solo use. The only downside is the sensitive gain control knob, but overall, I can't recommend this mic enough!"

"Having used my second Maono mic for over three months, I can confidently say it's the best desktop mic I've owned. The clarity of my voice is remarkable, and the noise-cancelling feature works wonders, even with background sounds. I love the retro aesthetic; it reminds me of the GameCube. My only minor issue is that the gain knob is a bit too sensitive, but it doesn't detract from the overall experience!"

"I recently purchased this USB mic for a foreign language class, and it has been a game changer. Setup was effortless—Windows recognized it immediately. The LED colors are fun, and the noise-cancelling feature works well. I did encounter an issue with the software update, but the customer support was exceptional and helped me resolve it quickly. I'm very satisfied with this purchase!"

"I love the functionality of this microphone; it's perfect for recording videos for my business. I can keep it close to my face while keeping it hidden during Zoom meetings."

"This budget mic exceeded my expectations. I primarily use it for gaming and video creation, and my friends immediately noticed the improved sound quality over my old headset mic."

"After my Lenovo laptop's internal mic failed, I plugged in this USB microphone and it worked flawlessly. It's plug-and-play, and the fast shipping from the seller was a bonus."

"I found this microphone to be a great little desktop option for my virtual team meetings. The setup was a breeze—just plug the USB into my computer and I'm ready to go. The mute button is a nice touch, and I've had no issues with sound quality. Everyone can hear me clearly!"

"I purchased this microphone for my daughter who is taking online college classes. She mentioned it works well and was very easy to set up. While it's not pro quality, we're both very happy with it for the price. It's definitely a big improvement over the built-in mic on our computer."

"As an aspiring author, I wanted a USB mic to practice voice work. I tested it by recording my daily affirmations in my van during a thunderstorm. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it filtered out the loud raindrops. My voice came through really clear, and I'm excited to use this mic for more voice work in the future!"

"I received this as a gift, and it’s been a game-changer for my content creation and streaming! The design is sleek and has a premium look, with a sturdy build that feels durable. The audio quality is incredibly crisp, and the adjustable knobs for mic and headphone settings make fine-tuning so convenient. It also does a great job of reducing background noise, ensuring clear recordings. One feature I especially love is the Type-C cable, which allows me to use it seamlessly with my Samsung phone. I highly recommend it for creators and streamers alike!"

"I recently purchased 3 of these mics. Although I have higher-end studio mics, I needed some cheap USB mics for teleconferences and my kids' school use. The AUDIOPRO USB Microphone is not a 'pro' grade mic, but it is surprisingly good for the low price. The sound quality for speech is nice, and it could make a great podcasting mic. However, you may need a software compressor for singing and instruments because of its jumpy dynamic range. Overall, this is a great value for a USB mic!"

"I bought this to improve my podcasts and videos as a YouTube content creator, and this microphone has certainly helped with its 192kHz/24bit processing. The quality is impressive, and the all-metal unit and stand feel durable. It has a muffle to stop voice pops, and I think a round pop filter works best with it. The sound produced is great for content creators on a budget. I'm very happy with my setup and would recommend this over other low-end mics!"

“I needed a hands-free microphone for voice recognition with Dragon One. After trying a wired headset and an expensive microphone, I took a chance on this Tonor Conference mic. Despite the initial warning from the software, I continued using it and have been very successful for the last five months. I found the ideal speaking distance to be 16 to 20 inches, and it performs just as well, if not better, than my previous mics. I appreciate that no software was needed and it sits firmly on my desk.”

“This little tabletop mic has been a great value for my conference calls. It’s solidly constructed, has excellent sound quality, and the built-in mute button with a light is very convenient. I can easily mute without searching for the on-screen icon, making it perfect for my MS Teams calls.”

“I experienced issues with my laptop’s microphone, leading to complaints about being too quiet on video calls. After using this external mic, I noticed an improvement in sound quality. I can now speak normally without straining my voice or typing messages. It’s incredibly simple to use with my Dell computer—just plug it in and push the button! This has significantly improved my video call experience, especially when my partner and I are together.”

"I bought this for my mother-in-law, and she loves it! The sound is very clear, and she enjoys singing more now. It's a fantastic gift and worth every penny!"

"I'm thrilled with this microphone! My friends say they can hear me much clearer than when I use my headset. It's super easy to set up and I love the RGB lights!"

"I've been using this mic for a while, and I'm really happy with my purchase. The setup was simple, and it works well on Windows without any special drivers. Good sound quality and great value!"
