I've enjoyed this video. You should do more of them sitting and talking to reviewed object. Great angle. It gives it a whole new dimension.

Gamer's mic?? RGB mic??? I don't get a point on that. There are many amateur recording mics for that money, that can probably give you better performance if you need it. Well it is RGB trend. Lets put RGB on everything. I am waiting for RGB condoms. That would make more sense than putting RGB on many other stuff they are doing.

He used to do it this way it felt more relaxed and natural to me.

For the price the audio quality isn't that good, Could get a Blue Yeti Blackout Edition for the exact same price which has vastly superior sound quality, You could even get the all white edition *cough* Tom

Compared to my worn lavaliere it isnt - but I didnt exactly tune its placement much either

Which actually brings up what I was thinking during the video:

1. What lavaliere do you use?

2. Why bother with either the reviewed mic or a yeti, the lavaliere seems to do an excellent job.
