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.
Fuck it , I've not had a playstation microphone in ages so I'll test it for that. I think I'll be a local hero for the new found £1 microphone discovery😂
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. 10/10
Yeah, for some reason I still have this really cheap €10,- (or something like that) headset which by now has snapped in the middle and is being held together with tape, but I only use the microphone because it works very well. 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.
Seriously, that table mic sounds SO much better than the one in my headset that cost me 200 god damn euro :c I need someone to send me this mic, since there is no poundland here... xD

galaxy 3 headphones i had were amazing and apple earpods are actually really good and even though mine have needed a bit of tape for starting to fall apart, they are still working perfectly and its almost been 2 years.
I got lucky and ran into a like new pair of 3DLuxe Bluetooth headphones at a local thrift store for $3.99. I figured they would be kind of okay and was absolutely shocked at the quality. They reminded me of the Bose Digital Instrument headphones I bought for $300. I was also shocked at their retail price of $70. Contrary to their design they don't leak that much either.

There was a news article last year about a man that got arrested for "abstracting electricity from the railway" by charging his phone using a socket on the train. I suppose you could argue that it's no different from wiring up your house to the 3rd rail or overhead cables, which people have done in the past. That's why plug sockets are often deactivated on trains, to stop the public using it. (But it makes you think why sockets were even put there in the first place?)
So they can laugh at you when your laptop or phone dies while using the onboard wifi. Fleece you senseless on ticket fares then begrudge you 5p worth of electric!
The ones that say you can't use them are usually labelled as such for a good reason. Like them not being particularly careful to ensure they will safely power the range of devices people might want to plug into them, such as sensitive electronics. Some of them have been known to vary quite dramatically in voltage which could cause some interesting fireworks if you were to plug a device into them. Presumably the operator wanted to make an example out of this person so that they don't get a lawsuit on their hands when someone ends up injuring themselves... (As others have said, the ones that say the public can't use them are usually for cleaners. The ones at your seats are really for your use, unless labelled otherwise, though they do often stop working...)
Correct, the main use for them is in depots where the voltage is going to be pretty much a known value and for pretty simple devices such as vacuums whereas, of course, on the move the amount of trains in the powered section, voltage drop (a massive problem with 3rd rail setups) and the draw by the train itself with vary the voltage widely.Although Mr. Henry probably does not care too much and probably just keeps on smiling.
Another reason is that the inverter used to supply the ac is not providing the same ac sine wave you would get from your typical mains socket. Some appliances dont work very well with square waves (vacuum cleaners aren't fussy). As the train travels across neutral sections of 3rd rail/overhead line, the output will vary. Appliances are generally not designed with this mind.
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.
When I'm on Xbox and if someone is using a Kinect for a mic I immediately mute them. Especially back when I played on the 360, since the Kinect echoed really annoyingly. I think the Xbox one Kinect might still echo. I wouldn't know, since I don't own a kinect(they are useless) and I don't have any Xbox friends who use the Kinect as a mic. For obvious reasons.
That £1 mic has me questioning why I bought a £100 mic.

There was a news article last year about a man that got arrested for "abstracting electricity from the railway" by charging his phone using a socket on the train. I suppose you could argue that it's no different from wiring up your house to the 3rd rail or overhead cables, which people have done in the past. That's why plug sockets are often deactivated on trains, to stop the public using it. (But it makes you think why sockets were even put there in the first place?)
So they can laugh at you when your laptop or phone dies while using the onboard wifi.
Fleece you senseless on ticket fares then begrudge you 5p worth of electric!
The ones that say you can't use them are usually labelled as such for a good reason. Like them not being particularly careful to ensure they will safely power the range of devices people might want to plug into them, such as sensitive electronics. Some of them have been known to vary quite dramatically in voltage which could cause some interesting fireworks if you were to plug a device into them. Presumably the operator wanted to make an example out of this person so that they don't get a lawsuit on their hands when someone ends up injuring themselves...
(As others have said, the ones that say the public can't use them are usually for cleaners. The ones at your seats are really for your use, unless labelled otherwise, though they do often stop working...)
Correct, the main use for them is in depots where the voltage is going to be pretty much a known value and for pretty simple devices such as vacuums whereas, of course, on the move the amount of trains in the powered section, voltage drop (a massive problem with 3rd rail setups) and the draw by the train itself with vary the voltage widely.Although Mr. Henry probably does not care too much and probably just keeps on smiling.
Another reason is that the inverter used to supply the ac is not providing the same ac sine wave you would get from your typical mains socket. Some appliances dont work very well with square waves (vacuum cleaners aren't fussy). As the train travels across neutral sections of 3rd rail/overhead line, the output will vary. Appliances are generally not designed with this mind.
Thanks for linking us to Big Clive, I've discovered a brand new way to procrastinate for hours on end.
Im thinking of getting the stick Computer Microphone as it does seem pretty ace :P
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.
I do appreciate the quality in that product because it actually sounds much better than my headset that I paid $15.00 for.
Guys, I need this as well! Where on earth can we find it?
I already had one
+rainydaygirl x it doesn't break easily I have one
I bought a pair of Poundland earphones once and one of the ears wasn't even soldered
Wait ur ear is meant to be stuck on ur head forever unless cut
@@fahimrahim4840 could not find the funny, please try again
Damn if I lived in the uk, I would definitely buy that one microphone.
At last, there's another person on earth who's heard of Bachman Turner Overdrive.
I live where they were born
Ashen' is always takin' care of business.
+360deeman you ain't seen nothing. Yet.....
+Love Castle Damn! beat me to it
They're a massive band, brilliant too!
"The difference between a battery and a bomb, is how fast they discharge"
I used to watch a lot of ashens videos back in 2015, and this makes me feel semi-nostalgic.
I wish my Dollar store had so many options
your profile picture matches your comment
yeah I wish we had those chargers.
its £1 Shop which is like $1.70
+M. de k. Wrong $1.31 mate.
+Buzztron still mate that 30p extra makes a huge difference
Clearly I'm part of the small minority that has no fucking clue who big Clive is..
Where have you been? Living under a rock?! Big Clive is like... All the rage nowadays!
+prescott231233 big clive sounds like someone who you could hug
k he is someone you could hug.
BurntFaceMan same
+k k
My friend had this magnifier attachment thing for the GBA when we were kids. It looks like it worked a hell of a lot better than this thing does lmao.
Bloody hell, that cheap-o mic sounded fantastic
2:00 so basically a freznel lense you can burn stuff with for a pound
my thoughts precisely
+Bethany Price some giant ants need burning
Lol I was thinking that.
Ciarán Farley-Toone you should see the ones in those old huge flat screen tv's. You can actually cook with those.
chistine lane hell, you can melt goddam steel beams with them
I always enjoy it when there's a good product that surprises Ashens by its very existence.

Improved quality from the Apple cables!
ahh electronic tat, reminds me of the origin of this channel.
Food specials?
Zero Articulation yep that too
knock off Nintendo ds and psp. the old times
Yees
Love clive's videos, about time you two collaborated!
poundland or poundtown has a whole new meaning in the states
Poundworld. The first we've heard of a Poundtown. :D
so weird I just clicked on your video 5 mins a go and then I see you here
+222 222 small world lol
Poundtown sounds like a great name for a horribly cheap brothel.
+Lemeres yup, lol
Can you try and return the products you're not satisfied with (that has the return program) and tell us how it went?
I am a man who loves distortion and light rays thank you for the shout out
These are definitely some of the mics that people on ps4 use.
ᔕᗩᗰE Oᑎ ᙭ᗷO᙭, I ᗩᔕᔕᑌᖇE YOᑌ.
+Rice Bricks not really lol when I'm on PlayStation so many people sound like garbage but on Xbox everyone sounds ok
+Cotton Hill Because everyone uses those stock apple ear buds with shit mics
+Cotton Hill we have found the fanboy!
When I'm on Xbox and if someone is using a Kinect for a mic I immediately mute them. Especially back when I played on the 360, since the Kinect echoed really annoyingly. I think the Xbox one Kinect might still echo. I wouldn't know, since I don't own a kinect(they are useless) and I don't have any Xbox friends who use the Kinect as a mic. For obvious reasons.
