Very good sound quality.
Great quality product but be careful with the little knob that tightens the phone clamp because if you leave it loose it can fall off and I nearly lost it. Everything else is very solid.

These microphones are great but get one whilst you can
Discontinued now so get one while you canThese microphones offer a great stereo image straight from your Iphone by connecting to the lightning connectorEasy to use, great app, and just plug and playWhat's not to like - great mic!

Brilliant little mic.

Great mic, incredibly poor tripod
As above. The mic is great. The tripod is cheaply made and flimsy. So much so, that I've had to buy something more suitable.My advice is buy the mic only option and get a decent stand separately.

Accurate stereo/mono recordings with good frequency response, versatile and compact for iPhone/iPad.
Used for mainly for recording live music (rock, blues, folk) concerts and home instrumental and vocal recordings, not tried for purely classical concerts yet, although my last recording is of a rock band with full orchestral accompaniment. This is the type of item were you certainly “get what you pay for” having tried cheaper alternatives, the Shure MV88 is head and shoulders above the rest, as you might expect from the Shure brand. Once you have mastered the mobile phone app (I use the iOS app on iPhone 6s+ and iPad Pro 9.7”) which is worth taking some time over as the various setting are for very different recording environments and recording targets.Monitoring through headphones whilst recording can be a bit hit or miss with connection (sometimes works straight away sometimes not?) but I’m not sure whether that is due to the app or my iPhone, but whether monitored or not the recordings are accurate, crisp and clear with a very good frequency range and response, with little to no extraneous noise, even though the microphone is highly sensitive.Microphone gain is adjustable up to 36dB boost, as are other settings, microphone setup (there are actually 3 mics within the head) stereo width, compression, limiter, high pass filter, equaliser, wind reduction and left/right swap, with 5 recording environment presets. This microphone only works with Apple products fitted with a “lightning connector” and cannot easily be used if iPhone or iPad is in a case that restricts access to the lightning connector. Overall I am quite happy with this compact microphone.

High quality - great microphone
I do quite a bit of studio recording and needed a high quality portable device, and this is great. Very solid build quality, great pop-shield and strong protective carry case. The audio quality is very good. On a direct comparison, recording using the iphone mic, then using the MV88, the quality difference is stark. The MV88 is studio quality, the iphone mic sounds poor. Be aware that you're not going to hear much difference if listening to your recordings through the iphone speaker, but once you put on a decent pair of headphones the quality difference is obvious. The MV88 has a tiny bit of hiss when on full gain and recording quiet sounds, but way less than from just the iphone mic, and that's completely to be expected and probably in-audible to many ears. Its only once you go up to more expensive mics / pre-amps etc... that you get the next stage of quality. The app is also very good. All in all - very happy.

Great mic even for classical piano, the most difficult instrument to record.
The quality of sound reproduction is outstanding and the set up is very easy and intuitive. You can vary the angle of sound which the mic takes in, you can increase the mic volume a lot. There’s various equalisation sliders for those wanting to colour the recording. Used it on an ipad, it’s tiny and by far the most convenient method of doing a quick on the spot recording there is. There is absolutely no background noise when you crank it up and no distortion in replaying music recorded which has large changes in dynamics. You can immediately divide a recording up into sections afterwards, and saving and sharing files is a doddle. You can fast forward and back with the slide of a finger on the screen. I am extremely fussy about sound and know how difficult it is to get a decent recording of classical piano, which is what I use it for; it’s really outstanding for this (although of course not the same as a thousand pound mic and recording desk!); even recording a string quartet from the back of the room gave really good sound. Thoroughly recommend

Broke within a month and the manufacturer won't replace it.
I bought this as a rather expensive gift for my client in the US. Within a month it stopped working, which really delayed the release of her album. It broke within a month and didn't record any longer. I contacted Shure and they wouldn't do a straight refund, or replace the item. I had to fill out a huge form and arrange for my client to post it to them at her own cost an inconvenience before SHURE would do anything. Super disappointed we couldn't just get it replaced or they give me a refund. It delayed the release of her album for weeks as we had to find an alternative. Super disappointed it's so difficult.

Best mic for iPhone I’ve seen so far
I’ve used it quite a few times with my iPhone now and it seems the most adequate mic for music and it picks up sound a lot better than with just the iPhone mic.The small tripod is a nice way to carry the phone and mic although it only films horizontal, not good for instagram lives. However i bought a seperate tripod and it’s able to hold the mic while having the phone vertical.I’d recommend this mic if you’re planning to use this mic with your iPhone and are into filmography or music.

Excelente calidad y versatilidad
El sonido es excelente, el poderlo usar con un móvil y con la pc usando la aplicación correspondiente, le da un plus para poder ecualizar o usar uno de los presets, realmente recomendable, es de mis micrófonos favoritos además de que es extremadamente práctico para viajes.Su funcionalidad está enfocada a PC y smartphones, se puede usar con cámaras dslr/mirrorless conectando a la entrada de micrófono la salida de audífonos del micrófono y conectándolo a una powerbank.

Sehr gute Qualität
Für relativ wenig Geld (im Vergleich zu hochwertigen Stereo Mikrofonsets) bekommt man damit wirklich sehr gute Tonaufnahmen / Videoton hin. Es schlägt absolut das eh schon recht gute Mikro meines iPhone 15 Pro Max um Längen und sogar meinen kleinen Roland HD Recorder. Die Audios klingen ohne Nachbearbeitung sehr, sehr gut! Nehme damit meine Bands (dr, bs, kb, voc, gt) und Klavier Solo auf, einmal den Pegel und Stereobreite eingestellt, den richtigen Aufstellplatz gefunden, leistet es ohne großen Aufwand Hervorragendes.Kann das SHURE MV 88 Video Kit zu 100% empfehlen. Auch das Manfrotto Stativ - sehr gut.Kleiner Tipp: ich verwende zum gleichzeitigen Laden des Telefons eine MagSafe Powerbank. Die ist in die Halterung geklemmt und das IPhone lässt sich einfachst und schnell ab- und ansetzen. Das mit dem Apple Adapter (geht einem sowieso schon auf die Nerven, diese tausenden Adapter!) ist nicht die ideale Lösung, so ist es einfacher.
