MSI Immerse GV60 Microphone Review

Rating: 8.5.

MSI are well known for their range of  PC components, but the company also makes peripherals. The Immerse GV60 microphone is aimed at streamers but has four selectable polar or ‘pickup' patterns. With an all metal construction and sleek finish, can this mic from MSI deliver where it matters most…the sound?

KitGuru says:  The GV60 Streaming Mic has excellent build quality and captures sound really well. The sleek design keeps the microphone looking professional. It trades blows with some of the most popular USB mics around and will easily be able to produce audio that can take your content to the next level. If you're looking to level up your sound quality and move on from using a headset, then the GV60 should be on your list to look at.
