Price stuff aside, this is a nice solid cheap microphone. I use it for voice to text for claude/openai and its perfect.

Compared to a headset, are these better or worse for video calls?

If you can keep the microphone within ~6 inches of your mouth, it's better. Otherwise, stick with a headset.

Burgerbob has a point. But there is more to it such as you can tweak the settings that are color coded to make it more sensitive to your voice. Also, it's a testament to how it can isolate your voice in a busy environment. For example I often use speech recognition with a tv or music going and don't have to worry about it picking it up.

I wrote down on on a piece of tape on the mic as it's hard to remember:

Yellow: headphone volume (if connected)
Blue: microphone sensitivity-how loud the mic picks you up
Green: playback audio-how loud you hear your own voice (I turn that off, its not the recording audio its you hearing your own voice separately)

Bought this mic for gaming. Not recommended. Nobody can hear you because windows or the software adjusts your volume down

This is a very easy setting to change in Windows.

I did try, it kept doing it it. I ended up buying headphones with a mic instead. I still have the mic
