The problem is not people using shitty external mics, the problem is people using internal laptop mics that is horrible. Any external mic would be a huge upgrade, just don't work from a noisy environment or at least don't take calls from one.
People appreciate good sound when they have to listen, but rarely when other people have to listen to them.
Just buy an dynamic mic if you want a mic that work well even when there is people around you.
- almog 4y agoTo that I'll add another common problem: people don't monitor their own mic, thus even if they invest in a decent dynamic mic, it's easy to fall into bad mic technique, too much gain that results in clipping or insufficient gain (+ bad mic technique) that either result in low volume or as in many conferencing apps triggers some sort of make-up gain compressor which end up amplifying background noise as well.
