Pros

If you know how to eq then this sounds pretty decent. The best feature by far is its built-in pop filter.

Cons

Great look to it but design wise lacks majorly. Its very noticeably plastic and its a bit small. Cord that comes with it is durable but didn't fit in the mic securely.

I noticed some came peeling or damaged in other reviews, im glad i didn't have that issue.

Competitiveness

I did a side-by-side comparison with this mic and a shure sm58.

I will try them out on a gig and see if they stand up to brand name microphones.

I actually did a side by side comparison with the all metal and there was only a slight difference.
