Many of those pricier options offer high-definition audio recording, but according to our experts and our tests, most people can’t tell the difference in the results.

Among the models we looked at, a majority of the microphones with our desired features, the highest recommendations, and broadly positive reviews fall between $60 and $100. Price under or around $100: Because a USB mic exists in the realm between built-in recording and the expensive world of studio-level microphones, the price should be in that middle range, too.
