Micro Usb Cable Gets Loose

Needed this for charging from a micro-USB cable. Works great for that.

I have another review that I wrote about this mic, but B&H's website doesn't appear to let me update that review. I've now been using this mic almost daily for over a year. The audio is crisp and clear, background noise is kept to a minimum, and people on the other end of the meeting/phone call give compliments on the detail that this mic captures. I used to use a condenser mic, but that also had the annoying feature of picking up a lot of 60Hz hum. This mic doesn't do that and I didn't have to make any adjustments to the room either. For the person who mentioned they couldn't fit it in a shockmount, it has one internally. That is why the mic is the size that it is. For those complaining about the USB port, mine hasn't had any issues. I accidentally bent the micro usb connector on the cheap cable they shipped with it and the mic survived just fine. The cable, on the other hand, was useless after that. I solved this problem by finding a 90 degree USB adapter so that the connector isn't pointing straight out the back of the mic. It now sits mostly flush and swiveling the mic is more likely to cause the adapter to disconnect at the other end. If your laptop, like mine, is usb-c only, don't try to buy long usb-c to usb-c cables. They are crazy expensive. Instead, try to buy a usb-c to mini or micro usb-b cable. They are much cheaper. My setup is usb-c to micro usb (10 feet), then an adapter from micro-usb to usb-c (1 inch), and then finally a short usb-c to 90 degree micro-usb adapter (6 inches).

Buy a longer cord like the USB 3.0 A/ML to MICRO B/ML CABLE - 3'

The cable is well made, not flimsy. The USB & micro USB plugs plugged in smoothly with no struggle. Recommended.

By far the best and most reliable USB to Micro-B cable I've found. Frustration takes a back seat to quality.

After having to repair 3 separate cameras for loose USB ports due to the cable stress on the port, I bought these. Works just as described! I have them on 7 cameras that our studio uses daily. It's a little pricey if you consider what it is, but in the long run, it's much cheaper than the $ that Canon just charged me to fix the port.

I used to tether my camera without the stopper and after a while, the USB port on the camera got loose due to the weight of the cable. And I had to buy a new camera body purely because of this reason. Getting the jerk stopper made all the difference.

As a USB 3.0 cable, it seems to be fine! As a longer replacement for the USB cable that came with my Nikon D810, it's a bit loose and doesn't fit in the cable anchor that comes with the camera. So I'll just use it on a drive or for general use instead. Seems to be well made.

It’s a cable! Gets the job done. No complaints.

Pretty simple cable. Gets the job done.
