    That microphone was surprisingly good... You can easily find complete garbage for 20 pounds.

      An actual technical answer for people wondering the same thing:
      It uses a design called Shotgun Mic which means if you don't speak directly into it the sound quality/volume go into the toilet rather quickly. It's designed for you to sit in one spot speaking right into it. I suppose in some scenarios that's totally acceptable! But we also don't know how well it handles background noise or long term use. I think for a pound it's insanely good value though. The fact it picks up any kind of bass range in voices is just surprising and interesting. If anyone ever picks one of these up, I live in Canada -- hook a brother up! I'd love to do a video on one.

      Same, I’ve gone through two mics costing around £100 each yet I could have just popped down PoundLand... I used to be really dubious about their products but I might just buy a load of their electronic stuff to test.

      Run that mic through a preamp or PA with a proper balanced XLR cable and it'll be as good as the Chinese Shure knockoffs you find on eBay for £15. brilliant for recording on the cheap, though the cost of a good preamp is at least a hundred and fifty times higher than anything at Poundland.

    I would buy that magnifier just for the lens. Instead of it magnifying the screen, I would point it at the sun and look through it. I think it would be a nice telescope to see the details of the sun.

What's more amazing is that it still works at all, it came out of the plastic casing quite some times, just dangled there like a little shit.

      I know, I'm actually going to recommend it to my other poor friends living on minimum wage. To be honest, you can only really get better quality by paying about 120 pounds. (depending where you buy it from), and value for money wise it's amazing. It's better than my friend who payed loads for a headset.

    • @chrysanth.5700

      I do appreciate the quality in that product because it actually sounds much better than my headset that I paid $15.00 for.
