Choose it if…

  • You like the headphones you have and want to add a mic to them.
  • You are happy to check your voice with your chat app’s mic test instead of hearing yourself continuously in headphones.
  • You want the mic close to your mouth, with no stand or arm on the desk.

Before choosing this model

  • Antlion says it doesn't work with Xbox.
  • Antlion lists every Mac except the 2018 and 2019 MacBook Pro.
  • It uses its own USB receiver, not Bluetooth; a phone needs a USB-C adapter for the receiver (sold separately), per Antlion.
  • Antlion rates the battery at 12+ hours, and the mic keeps working while it charges over micro-USB.
  • The 34 ms latency is Antlion's figure for the mic link, not the delay of a whole chat call.
  • Antlion lists no way to hear yourself through it; check your voice with your chat app's mic test.
  • It carries only your voice: your headphones keep their own plug, so check both reach the PC or console you play on.
  • No stand or arm needed: it sticks to your headphones with Antlion Audio's adhesive base and magnetic clasp.
  • Also needed: your own headphones to attach it to.
