I needed a new microphone for zoom video chats and other reasons and this microphone was exactly what I needed. Got it on sale, so it wasn’t anything expensive. Having a separate mute button is a great feature. Haven’t found any issues so far.

My husband bought this for me, and I absolutely love it! The pink color is beautiful, the microphone is the perfect size to put wherever on my desk, it picks up sound properly without picking up everything in the background, adjusts/tilts smoothly, the Razer app is easy to use. The cord is a decent length, just depends on your setup and where your ports are. The tap to mute function is wonderful with LED light indicator. Couldn’t be happier about my pink siren microphone.

After trying out numerous microphones over the years, I have finally found one that ticks all the boxes – the Razer Seiren V3 Mini wired ultra-compact condenser USB microphone. This device is a testament to the wonders of modern audio technology, and it easily earns a five-star rating from me. Here’s why:
The set-up of the Razer Seiren V3 Mini is a breeze. It’s a true plug-and-play device that requires no fussing around with complex installation processes. You plug it into your USB port (USB C to USB A), and voilà , you are ready to go! This is a big win for anyone who values convenience and wants to get started without any delays.
Sound quality is paramount, and the Seiren V3 Mini doesn’t hold back. The audio captured by this compact microphone is clear, detailed, and full-bodied. Whether I’m laying down some tracks, streaming, or in a conference call, my voice is front and center, crisp and free from distortions. The cardioid pickup pattern works wonders in isolating my voice from background noises, which is invaluable when you need your audio to sound professional no matter your location.
I adore the practical design features of the Seiren V3 Mini, such as the handy tap-to-mute button located conveniently at the top of the microphone. It’s perfect for those moments when you need to quickly silence your audio without any hassle. Additionally, the status light on the front is a great visual cue that lets me know when I’m live or muted, eliminating any guesswork during recording or streaming sessions. (green when live, red when muted)
Importantly, the Razer Seiren V3 Mini keeps it simple with no physical settings to mess with on the microphone itself. This minimalist approach appeals to those who want a straightforward, no-fuss experience. However, for users who like to tweak and personalize their audio settings, Razer offers the option to download the Synapse app. Through this application, you can dive into the advanced settings and adjust the microphone and the functionality of the mute button to your exact preferences.
While the Seiren V3 Mini may not boast a metal construction, it doesn’t skimp on quality. It feels durable and well-suited for both home and on-the-go use. The integrated stand is a thoughtful touch, providing a stable base and the option to angle the microphone for optimal sound capture. It is metal where it matters the most and that is the threads where you attach to the base or boom stand.
In conclusion, the Razer Seiren V3 Mini is an exceptional ultra-compact USB microphone that offers a seamless blend of quality audio, ease of use, and sleek design. Ideal for podcasters, gamers, and remote workers alike, this microphone is versatile, reliable, and delivers fantastic performance every time. If you’re in the market for a compact microphone that can keep up with your dynamic lifestyle and recording needs, look no further than the Razer Seiren V3 Mini. It’s a top-tier choice that I wholeheartedly recommend.

Having been using a standard headphones for voice calls, I always get complaints from the person I am speaking to about background noise. Even adjusting the background noise sensitivity of the voice calling app did not help that much. Because of this, I have been on the lookout for a microphone that not only is mini but simple enough to operate and does a good job in dampening the background noise. This Razer Seiren Mini Ultra-compact USB Microphone fits the bill. It’s simple plug-and-play design makes it painless to connect to my laptop which automatically recognizes the device as soon as I plugged it on and installed the necessary driver. Once it’s ready to use, I placed a call and based on feedback from the person on the other line, my voice was very clear and the background noise was somehow muted. Another feature I really like is the Tap-To-Mute sensor on top of the mic. I can easily and quickly mute myself whenever I need to and I no longer need to find the mute button on my screen. When the microphone is muted, the LED indicator shows a red light and green when it’s on, so you can easily see the mute status of the mic. In addition, its mini compact size does not take a lot of space on my desk and the color blends nicely with my set up. This is a simple device that I will surely enjoy using.

I’ve noted this before, but I do love the look and consistency of Razer’s brand and packaging along with the thought being put into their product presentation when unboxing. It is very industrial looking with just the right minimalist touch.
Inside, you get the mic, a small stand off and the base and you attach all three together. You also get a USB-A to USB-C cord. I like that Razer has standardized on USB-C for everything on their end and USB-A on the computer end.
Once everything is attached and plugged in if you don’t have Synapse 3 software installed you will be prompted to install it if you so desire. For basic functionality you do not need the software and the mic as is will work as a standard USB mic immediately detected and installed by Windows. It will then show up in your device manager ready to go. If you do want access to the extra configurability offered, you will need Synapse 3 software.
I like the all black look of the Seiren. It has just enough height and heft with a quality build and feel. Use is easy as you tap the top of the mic to enable and disable the mic and its status is shown with an indicator light showing either red (off) or green (on). The mic itself can move/pivot in 360 degrees when connected to the base for about 15-20 degrees in all directions. I’m not quite sure how that will help much but it’s there.
Being wired, you will be tethered to the device you’re recording with but you can always use a different cable length for a bit of flexibility.
I did some basic testing for voice recording (pod cast), distance test and open speaker streaming and headphone streaming.
For up close voice recording, it is very good especially at this price point. You will need to be within 5-10 inches of the mic for best pic up for clarity and richness of voice. Moving farther away and you will start to quickly lose pickup, richness and mid/bass. This is a personal mic and not one you can sit among a small group and everyone talk and get equal levels of pickup, richness of tone or level. Anything beyond at best a foot away and you are best served with a lapel mic. The small size and detachable base does make it somewhat compatible with many universal boom arms.
For streaming, it is very sensetive and not noise isolating for voice. It tends to pick up on a lot of ambient sound like slight movements, keyboard clicks, mouse noise even if it is hollow pick up because of some distance. If it is sitting on the desk while you type/play, remember the Seiren will be just about as close to you as your keyboard if not closer. For gaming with friends or streaming, a headset is mandatory unless you want everyone to get into your gaming sounds and environment while you try to speak.
So where does that leave the Seiren? While it is a very good up close mic, it is best used for maybe single voice pod casting (unless you want to pass it around back and forth or have other mics wired in) or gaming with a good set of headphones and you want a bit better quality voice than many headsets can afford. You can always leave the channel open or tap the top as needed when speaking. The open/close channel light makes it very easy to know when you’re hot or not. Having to lean down a bit to use it for better clarity if you’re not using a boom arm of some sort would get tedious and tiring after a very short while especially for game streaming.
If you have a use case for a decent quality standing mic for somewhat close up recording/use and want good, decent quality recordings, the Seiren is a well priced pick but be wary of limitations in other scenarios.

Starting a video channel is never easy, so when you can get good items as good prices, you grab them.
Well, this in one of the first “video” mic’s I have gotten for this task. I own several Razer products, so I know this would be a good one. I was right. Although it is tiny… I mean small from what I was expecting, it works almost perfect. I will give you the highs and lows of this.
Good:
1. lightweight
2. small
3. adjustable (small travel all around)
4. led lights up for on and mute (green and red)
5. USB-A to USB-C connection. so I can use just about any cable in if needed (but will use the one that came with it of course)
6. front and back pick-up patterns, so sides will not capture noises very easily.
7. can be used with or without Razer software. so plug and play is already in the mix,
8. can be assembled as a desktop mic or used in a tripod/mic boom arm with the 1/4 screw mount on the bottom
9. Works with OBS/SteamLabs perfectly and with that app settings you can get really creative.
10. when used as desktop mic, the foam on the bottom of the stand not only gives nice grip, it also absorbs slight vibrations you have have while typing or using items on the desk.
11. when “hot” the light will be green and when it is “muted”, it will be red. Making it easy to know if you can talk or not.
Bad:
1. height of mic when assembled, makes it have to insert the usb cable. it is straight up angle and cable gets slightly tweaked to one side after the fact.
2. Razer software although not needed, does not add anything to the experience. Simple settings like volume and gain are there, but nothing beyond that. Would hope for more bass, treble, effects, or pop filter would be nice to have as options.
3. it does tilt a little, but it needs more angles to be useful up close as a desktop mic.
4. you have to be right up on it for it to pick up your voice. So if you put it too far away and hit the gain, you just might peak out or get all kinds of background noise
the bad things are subjective and not all will mind these things. I however, just breeze past them and love using this small mic. I have it with me almost all the time, in case inspiration hits. So go get it and let the world hear what you have to say.
