What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Blue Yeti USB Mic for Recording & Streaming on PC and Mac
- The size is good and the handle and comfort to play is good.
- Very nice-looking, substantial in weight. Versatile with configurations.
- Easy to setup and create clear and crisp audio! Fairly large for the size.
- Although fairly large in size, the quality of the product is evident. Large selection of settings.
- It is very sturdy and has some weight to it. It looks and feels professional!
Blue Yeti Pro USB Condenser Microphone
- Some people do not like the size and extra weight to this mic. It is heavy when mounted in the stock desktop mount, but when I need portability this mic delivers and it is very well built
- I was surprised by the well constructed and the weight of the microphone.
- It's a little larger than I expected, but it's still totally a nice desk size.
- It is just too heavy. More so, with the Radius Shock Mount, my Know Arm Stand (made for Yeti), just collapsed.
- Slightly heavy weight

What customers say about "Features"
Blue Yeti USB Mic for Recording & Streaming on PC and Mac
- Simple to use and records great sound. I use it to record podcasts and the multiple recording patterns are a godsend. I love this mic.
- There are manual switches for both gain and recording patterns - stereo, omni, cardioid, and bi-directional.
- It’s a very sensitive microphone, it picks up a lot of low and mid frequencies.
- It also features a 3.5mm standard audio jack port which allows you to plug in earphones to get real time monitoring. I really like it.
- Amount of background noise and static detracts from what should be professional quality.
Blue Yeti Pro USB Condenser Microphone
- The ability to monitor through the Mic via headphones is amazing, the versatility to record through USB and Mic cables makes it even more outstanding.
- The controls are strait forward & keeps matters simple.
- Wonderful microphone, sounds very clear and has high quality recording.
- Has 4 different capsule modes to fit your recording needs that can be easily adjusted
- Has the option of being an analog mic or a USB, so it's super versatile
- Screw holes for stand are just gaping and open when placed in a shock mount via the bottom screw
- Stand does not have any sort of shock absorption, so it will hear every desk-bump and even movement from your corded headphones
