Well my 5€ headphones with a mic finally broke, so ill be going standalone.

 

I need it for just talking over Skype/TS, but it needs to be relatively durable and not crap. Price is flexible but the lower the better ;)

 

thanks fam :3

It's the Blue Snowball. I have one, value for money. Not for Skype though, it's overkill.

no it's not. there is also the Blue Snowflake, which is cheaper than the snowball.

It's more convenient than a desktop mic imo. Just clip it onto your headphone cable and you're good to go.

 

The sound quality is amaze for $8. I use one myself. #noragrets
