A great microphone in it's own right.
I was stupid enough to buy one of those Pyle-Pro PDMIC58 mics. It was about a dollar less than the Behringer and is worth about $20 less! It was horrible! The Behringer on the other hand is professional quality build and sound. I've used Shure SM58's for over 25 years and I owned one for 15 years until it was stolen (yes, the Shure SM58 is a SUPERB mic), but, so is the Behringer! Wow! It is a little different tonally but sounds very, very good. At this price it is unbelievable. I am not a sound engineer but was a working musician for years and then set up a home studio to record. This mic could be priced the same as a Shure and still be a good deal. A little more handling noise is the only issue but I can live with that since I almost always have it on a mic stand. Go ahead and try to find another mic at this quality and sound for 3x the price, if you do let us know. UPDATE: 5/13/2016 My bandmates have all ordered these mics they are superb for male and female vocals. This is a steal of a price!

Wow Wow Wow!
Wow Wow Wow! I have several Behringer products, and have been really pleased with them, but even after reading the reviews on this mic I couldn't quite believe that it would be this good, but one of my SM58s was damaged (yes, it can happen) and I needed a replacement quickly, I decided to try this mic and let me say that it didn't disappoint! I made 2 recordings, one with a SM58 mic and one with this and had several people listen to both using high-end studio headphones and they were all surprised at how well the recording with this $20 mic compared to that of the SM58, none could tell which was recorded with which mic.
I'll learn more about this mic as I use it more, but for $20 and a mic that performs this well and is this well made (it's extremely sturdy and durable) how can I not give it 5 Stars?

Totally pleased with this microphone!!
What an amazing microphone! I'm a classical guitarist and I needed a decent microphone for a wedding performance this weekend. I'm able to get a very good, natural sound from this mike, worked beautifully. My wife is also a professional musician and agrees the sound was very good, and she's the toughest critic I know of! The only reason I say its 'very good' vs excellent sound is to get what we consider excellent, I'd have to pay about $350 or more on a Rode or Neumann mic - this one is $20. Think about that! I haven't seen such a fantastic deal in years!! I'm not being paid to say all this either, and I don't often review things unless I'm really impressed!

Low dollar mic with high dollar performance.
Well. That was unexpected. I figured twenty bucks it wasn't going to be too expensive a mistake if I hated it.
Oh. My.
WAY hotter than the SM57 I have to compare it to. Tested on a Behringer mixer, through some Tapco Thumps, this guy sounds very good, and is solidly built. VERY good off-axis noise reduction. This would be a very good mic when using floor wedges in this regard. Tested with a snare drum, kick drum, but with some terrible toms with bad heads on 'em. The snare and kick sound great, the lousy tom heads sounded lousy and loud. But with a well tuned, well cared for tom, I'm betting it will be a nice as well. This would not be very good for putting in between two drums (how I used to mic my rack toms with one mic) as the off axis noise rejection is so good. Rehearsal in two days will tell the tale of the others' opinions of the vocals.
Totally unexpected quality for the low low dollars. I'll be buying more.
Edit: Three gigs have passed. This thing is solid! I'm using it for my vocals. My vocal mic has always doubled in duty as my overhead for my drum set, as all the noise bounces off my face into the mic, i.e. cymbals, hats, ambient drum noise, etc. This is better for the isolation of my voice from the drums. It's a good mic! $20 well spent!
Edit again: More gigs have gone by, ZERO regrets. This is a good mic! I just purchased three more, and I'll be doing some comparisons to make sure they are consistent in quality, output, etc. If I find any anomalies I'll post some more. One thing I should mention, the mic clip it came with works fine, but a tight fit.

Sounds like a winner
It seriously sounds better than it has any right to at this price range, and I love it. Great if you want to do some recording in an area that is not sound treated that you can't get away with using a condenser microphone in. It has a lot of character as it's frequency response is far from flat. Attenuation of the lows and a pretty beefy boost in the presence without going too bright. It's a bit louder that the Shure sm58, but not hugely. Still needs quite a bit of preamp, about 70% up on my preamp to remain in unity on my mixer for reasonable recording levels. It's got a good sound to it. I think it's super short sighted of Behringer to fail to include the frequency profile of this microphone on the Amazon store page, but don't worry I've got you all covered. The picture attached is a document included with my microphone which SHOULD have been on this store page, and will give you an idea of what this microphone will sound like.

Not Bad at the Price Point
March 2019 UPDATED Review
When I first bought this mic it was extremely quiet and had a background hiss. I messed around with it and tried out some different equipment and got it working. Now, with the right mixer, cables, and recording setup it sounds pretty all right. For the price, it is an excellent starter mic for podcasters. I'm gonna record more with it and see how it does. Just wanted to be sure to update.

Not A Great Experience
I have a Behringer audio interface so when I wanted to upgrade mics I thought I'd get the same brand. It was pretty much dead on arrival. The first issue I had is that it is was very quiet. So quiet that I had to turn up my gain just to record some test audio. It has a constant layer of static over any recordings that even post audio effects can't remove entirely.
I thought it was the cable so I got a new one. I thought it was something to do with the phantom power so I tried with it on (started with it off). Thought it was the interface so I swapped it out. Then I tried plugging it straight into my sound card. Nothing. It sounds the same no matter what (if my computer can even register it).
Checking under the hood, it looks like some of the wire solders came loose. I'm gonna try getting it repaired. The individual parts seem pretty good so it stinks mine came damaged.

A Great Deal On A Good Microphone
I only have one mic to compare this with. The one I was using was a Uniden of the same type style. It was about 20 years old. Still works, but now I have decided to plunge in to DAW recording. I still have not figured out how to really use a DAW yet, so just for the heck of it, I did a side by side test on a powered speaker system. Certainly what this is not intended for. But this is what I found in my comparison:
The Behringer felt more substantial. Of course, being new it looked a hell of a lot better, too.
The Behringer came with a very usable case, yet the mic did not cost much. A surprise.
The Uniden seemed louder at the same volume level.
The Behringer however, has very effective internal pop filters. The sound was much more pleasing.
I would have to say I made a good choice with this Behringer. Once I figure out how to use a DAW, using studio monitor speakers, I am excited to hear the outcome.
Keep in mind, this does NOT come with cables. If you need cables, like I did...XLR to XLR, I ordered them while making this purchase. But all in all, you are still getting a great deal on a good microphone.

Superb Budget Mics
I have a couple of SM58s that are almost 20 years old, and still going strong. I needed a couple of mics quick, and cheap, so I ordered these. Back in 2014 I was in the same situation, and picked up a couple of Pyle Pro PDMIC58 mics, and was disappointed, but not too much, because they were less expensive than the Behringers. Those didn't sound very nice, and only lasted a couple of months.
But these Behringers have a real smooth sound to them, good for male or female vocalists. I take care of them pretty well, but they still have had a bit of abuse. They are still running strong, and I can't tell you how happy I am with their sound!
Even if I replace them later with new SM58s, these have already paid for themselves.
They are a bit hotter than the Shure mics, and a little brighter, but they are easy to mix for, and you'll be happy with the results. If not, it's just $20///

Five stars for sure For a super good microphone
I cannot believe that I ordered this microphone at 5 AM and receive it the same day .The real reason I’m writing this article is to tell everyone that I am blown away with this microphone as I have had just about every microphone in every price range and don’t let the price fool you because on my PA system I had my mic volume on 12 and my master volume on 12 and even standing in front of the PA there was no feedback and it was just as crystal clear as could be.

I was and still am a huge fan the Shure 58 As being one of the best vocal mics for stage but I would put this Mic up against it anytime. I sat and read review after review before pulling the trigger and thought what am I going to get for a $20 Mic but I am absolutely amazed at this microphone and had to write this review so if you want a super Mic at the Supervalu don’t even think about it just buy it! Five stars for sure

Amazing value for the price
As someone who does youtube and twitch, I like to play around with audio and video equipment. This time around I was looking for a good priced handheld dynamic mic that I could use attach a portable recorder and capture audio on location where booming my shotgun or pencil condensor wouldn't be an option.
And with my testing, I'm absolutley blown away by the quality of the mic, especially for the price. I gave it a test by using it on my twitch streams for a week, replacing my at2020 for what was initially going to be just for the duration of testing. The audio quality is close to the at2020 at a fifth of the price. It is a bit more muddy compared to the at2020, but for stream and for on-location recording it does extremely well. Along with that, because it is a dynamic mic instead of a condensor like the at2020, it does a better job of rejecting outside noise while streaming.
It's now become my main mic for doing twitch streams. I still keep the at2020 for my youtube voice over work as it does sound better, but this mic is a steal for the price.
Not only does it sound good, but it is also a very sturdy mic. the entire outer body is a very sturdy metal, and has a nice weight in the hands.
Just to note, because it is a dynamic it can be a bit gain hungry. Although it CAN be used with an xlr to 3.5mm cable, you'll want to make sure the port you are plugging into can give enough juice. For me I had to add 30db gain to the interface in windows before getting usable volumes. As always I would recommend using a proper XLR audio interface or recorder to get the benefit of balanced signal to reduce line noise.
Of note, this is just the microphone. If you don't already have the rest of the setup, you'll need a cable, a stand (if you plan on not holding the mic the entire time) and preferably and audio interface, mixer, or whatever else you intend to use to capture the audio via XLR.
Also would recommend a pop filter for this. Even though it does have a screen that helps mitigate plosives, you'll want something on top of that to really get rid of them.

Nothing fit together correctly - returned immediately
I saw a couple reviews online about this microphone, and although it is rather inexpensive, I thought I'd buy one to see if it would be a reasonably good value for the money. When I got the microphone, the first thing I noticed was that the microphone clip that came with it was much smaller in diameter than the body of the microphone and in no way would it fit on the mic.
Secondly, no microphone cable was included with the microphone (I didn't really expect one considering the price of the mic), but when I went to plug it in with a standard XLR cable that I have, the diameter of the XLR connector on the microphone was too small to accept a standard XLR microphone cable. I have several microphone cables that work with my Shure SM58 microphones, and I would expect any microphone that uses an XLR style mic connector to be universal. So, unfortunately I never got a chance to even appraise the audio quality, and due to the other problems, and I just returned it.

Good for the price, microphone holder effectively worthless.
The "value for money" rating would have been a perfect 5 out of 5 had the included mount been at all usable. There is nothing I can do short of taping the microphone into the shock mount that works.
That issue left me with only one option, which was to order a microphone shock mount that actually exceeds the price I paid for this microphone. Take this into consideration if you're looking into this microphone. This, an apparently insignificant issue at first glance, doubles the amount you're paying in the end if you don't already have a shock mount which is compatible with the Behringer Xm8500.
You shouldn't expect perfection at this price point but, you should always expect a usable product.
In closing, having said that, and air my only grievance towards this microphone: if you are in the market for a microphone that punches well above its weight class, and don't have an unlimited budget then this is a strong contender. Sadly, I just don't know if others have this problem with the included shock mount, or if mine was defective.

For the money, you can't beat it.
This microphone is durable, loud, and clear. I got this to improve the sound of the Blowing Up podcast and it did wonders for cutting back on noise. I've also used it for live sound and actually like it more than my SM-58. It also looks and feels very nice, if you care about that.
It comes with a nice case and a mic clip. There's no on/off switch, which makes it less likely to break. It doesn't come with a cord because it's a serious piece of usual equipment. You'll need an XLR cable.

Tricky but good for the price.
Plugged right into the sound card on PC tower...plenty of white noise feedback... no surprise.
Was sold on the fact it was supposed to be good for feedback noise and it has some directional noise reduction.
However it picks up a lot of background noise, fan/heater, cat collar from about 8 feet away, typing and clicking as well. I've worked it different angles and different sides without much improvement. Point it vertically up from the keyboard and mouse helps a tiny bit on the clicks and taps feeding in.
Have it fed through Behringer 1204usb mixer and Voicemeeter software and the voice sound quality is great. The usb feed in creates only a mild hum vs the stereo mic plug in. Voicemeeter does a good job in clearing up a portion of the humming.
It's a decent starter mic for gamers maybe.. but you'll want a interface and some software to help aid in reducing feedback noises. I'm not sure how good the quality is outside of computer connection. It may do great in other hardware.

Good quality, low input volume by default (requires a good mixer/amplifier/audio interface)
Haven't used for long so can't attest to build quality (although its heft and metal body feel convincing for what it's worth, packaging is also good with its plastic briefcase emulating premium value).
However audio quality is good with Audacity based on my listening tests with midrange-focused AT M30X headphones. The problem is the input volume is really low when recording using XLR-to-3.5mm or XLR-to-USB cable (the latter having distortions if you force max input volume higher), so it seems that if you want to record with this mic with loud enough audio with no distortions or software amplifying via Audacity that still can hurt quality a bit, you have to invest in a good mixer or audio interface that I don't have enough for yet.
Even the cheap Focusrite Scarlett, at least based on Google searches, show some can't amplify volume that much with this mic. Don't know about the Shure X2U if it will fare better.
Basically, this mic is good, although preferably with direct XLR connection for use in karaokes/events rather than recording.

No real competition in this price range!
Setting the table a little, I'm a computer hardware whiz and better than average photographer/videographer. Sound has become my new best friend. VLOG's, etc. I stuck this mic up to a Shure SM58, Shure 565SD and an MXL 990 side by side. Running thru a Tascam 701D, phantom power only to the MXL (it's a condenser). I literally preferred the sound out of this one over BOTH Shure mics and only marginally less than the MXL. I've 2 family members who are professional musicians, one of whom is my father so I had no problem with hardware comparisons.
For the money you won't find a better buy. For 4x the money it's really a toss up. This is not as crisp as a condenser, but it's clear as a bell. It's not quite as loud as the SM58, but that's a pro mic. This sounds smooth but NOT muted and was almost impossible to make clip, unlike any of the others. Word on the street is that Behringer is hit and miss, but this mic belies that. I like the silkier sound. To you car sound junkies it would be Infinity Reference vs. Boston Acoustics (or Kappa). The SM58 sounds brash, the XM8500 sounds cultured. And even a decent condenser like the XML 990 will appeal more to a broadcaster than a musician by it's very nature. I should have bought the 3 pack, but I'm having some issues with a Behringer mixer (which ARE DEFINATELY off my list now) and I didn't want to risk more problems. Well, I don't have to. For quality sound and at this price point you can't go wrong unless it's DOA.

Great mic. Could probably use it as a bat too!
I should preface by saying I don't use this mic often. Normally I use a condenser mic when I'm streaming/gaming. I do some singing online with friends and wanted something that sounds better for singing as opposed to just talking. People could completely tell the difference the first time I used this mic which said a lot to me. They told me I was clearer with a cleaner, richer sound. I don't know much about mixing or fooling around with audio settings in regards to mics, so a change in quality by simply "plugging it in and going" is pretty good.
For $20, this is a steal. I was expecting some sub-par product, but what I got was a thick plastic foam lined case with a HEAVY metal microphone. Seriously, I'm talking some solid build quality. It's got some weight to it, and I definitely wouldn't want to be hit with it.
The only thing I really don't like about it is it isn't powered (I knew that before buying), so if you plug it into a PC via USB you don't have the ability to boost the mic in the sound control panel in Windows. The only way around it I've found is to either use something like VM Banana to boost via USB or an XLR to 3.5mm cable to give you the option in Windows. Otherwise it's pickup is too low to really hear. If you're using a physical mixer you shouldn't have that issue though, I'm guessing.
Either way, it's a great product that ticks all the boxes. Great sound quality, it's not gonna fall apart on you and it's honestly underpriced imo. I would've expected to pay twice as much or more for something with this level of all-around quality. Great value.

Sounds like garbage
I bought this mic after seeing all the rave reviews it received across the internet. I was going to use it to record podcasts and possibly do some light Twitch streaming.
My normal mic, a Blue Snowball, was routinely picking up background noise, clear enough to a point where viewers would comment on it. Seeing as I live in a ghetto, my recordings would often have a background soundtrack of tricked-out Honda Civics, Spanish gangsta rap, fireworks, and people walking past my house yelling. Everything I read suggested that switching from a condenser mic to a dynamic mic would solve my woes. From what I read, the Behring XM8500 was the real effin' deal. Everywhere I went, this was the top-recommended mic for cost-to-quality ratio. Redditors were telling tales of how their XM8500 improved their audio quality by a gajillion percent, got them multi-billion dollar record deals, and cured COVID-19 (I bought this back in 2018 so I have no idea wtf was going on there). This microphone was like the second coming of Ronnie James Dio. How could I NOT buy it?
So I set it up (with some extra tweaking after I found out it only records in mono) and tried recording some stuff in Audacity. Way too quiet. I did some more research and found that for best results a mixer was required. Cool, I actually had one on hand, a Behringer Xenyx 502. I found a tutorial and followed it to a T. I succeeded in getting louder audio, but at the cost of the quality. I tried a few other tutorials and triple-checked my work, no dice. So my options were either low quality or low volume? To quote Randy Jackson, "That's a 'Nope' from me, dawg." I bought this in 2018, but I kept playing with it sporadically over the last couple of years in the vain hope that one day I might accidentally find the fabled set-up of legend that all the positive reviews spoke of and that I might get that perfect golden audio quality and take my rightful place with the gods on Olympus. I just can't do it anymore, this microphone is TERRIBLE, and the abundance of positive reviews confuses me greatly. People allegedly use this mic for podcasts and Twitch broadcasts, and I'm over here struggling to be heard by my friends on Discord. Part of me wonders how many of these reviews are honest, and not just paid shills.
Seriously, do NOT buy this microphone!

Good enough if you already happen to have the extra hardware required to use it.
(from the perspective of someone using it at their desk) For $20, The mic isn't the worst thing out there, but if you have an xlr mic, you either are using an adapter to plug it straight into your computer, (which probably means that you have this out of coincidence, as you would've just bought a usb mic) or already have a good audio interface, which probably means you care about audio quality but also have the money and passion to get a better xlr mic.
(from the perspective of someone using it to record an instrument) You probably shouldn't get this. Although, if you don't really care about pristine audio quality and just want to have something that belongs to you with which to record you strumming away on your guitar--no shame--this might be for you.
It's not bad for the price, there just aren't many practical use-cases for it.

For the price, it's honestly impressive.
I was impressed by these mics.
I own a Shure SM58, but wanted a few extra mics for when I work with other people or want to mic an instrument. I couldn't justify shelling out a few hundred dollars to pick up a few "extra" mics. I was looking at alternatives and was shocked by the reviews and price tag on these. I figured I wasn't out much for $23 dollars.
I plugged one in side-by-side with my Shure SM58S, and there was definitely more clarity or definition in the Shure mic. I'm no audio expert, but I do think it just had a cleaner, warmer sound. Better control, if that makes sense. Frankly, a Shure gives you just a good raw, honest reproduction of sound. Not much added or lost.
The behringer was a little harsher on the high end. I was able to EQ it a little with my PA system's very basic 3 channel EQ.
Can I get it as clear as a Shure? No. But honestly when I'm not comparing them side by side, I don't notice that much. The Behringer does sound good.
I probably would never use it to record anything, but for live performances I don't think you'll find a better mic in this price range. If your just starting or if you don't need an absolutely pro-quality sound, you'll be happy with this mic. It is quality for the price, for sure.
It definitely works, comes in a nice case, and it DOES fit into clip (I've seen a lot of reviewers saying it doesn't). You slide the bottom of the mic in through the space/hole shape of the clip, and it's tight, but it works fine.
It also comes with an adapter for smaller threads.

This cant be...
My first impression when I took this microphone out of the supplied padded case was "This is made out of metal, it feels solid and heavy, like a real microphone. This is not $25."
I plugged it into my Yamaha AG03 and I am still not sure how this microphone can be this price. According to some YouTube test comparisons, this mic stacks up to the standard Sure SM58 with a slight difference that is a matter of preference at most, but likely not noticeable unless you are comparing the two mics side by side.
If you are a Karaoke host, leave your Sure at home for yourself and bring this Behringer to the gig. If some disrespectful idiot drops your mic, still act like he just stabbed you with a knife and have security escort the person out, but at least this mic may take the punishment and after the tenth time this happens you are out only $25.

Excellent Microphone! Can't beat the price!
This mic is a real gem. I use it on vocals or instruments at open mic events. Every performer brings something different - different instruments, different comfort levels, different experiences addressing the microphone - and this very versatile mic helps me get thru all of it.
I don't know whether it would capture nuance for recording as it doesn't have the frequency response or nor the character of good recording gear, but it's a winner for live sound applications.
Best part: at a $20 price point I'm not too worried about it!

Good sounding solid microphone - Clip too small for barrel, but still an exceptional sound
I hate to take a star off this microphone because of the clip they ship with it. It's too small. It's a 3/4" clip but the microphone is at least 1" thick so it's useless. I have it mounted on a microphone holder with velcro for now.
Aside from the mount, I am very impressed with the microphone. I worked with Shures before I honestly cannot tell the difference. Voice is clear and there is no color I can perceive.
This microphone needs no phantom power (so it works well with my Loop recorder), can be handheld and the sensitivity is restricted so much that a recording I made with voice and acoustic guitar had no percievable trace of the guitar in it. Amazing.
For the price this is an exceptional mic, but frankly if it cost even just $10 less than the Shure it would still be a good buy. It's a great microphone and I'll probably buy another soon to record my acoustic guitar.
Please, ship the right sized holder and I'll happily add the 5th star to this review.
