I mean if you're going for the look and you want cheap... you want a desktop mic with a shock stand.
All dedicated mics are going to be better than whatever is built-in, so it's not a waste of money at all.
If you are willing to spend £110 I would say get this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/HyperX-QuadCast-Condenser-Gaming-Microphone-Black/dp/B07NZZZ746
It's a lot cheaper then the Blue Yeti (which also doesn't sound good), and this sounds great and looks the bomb.
Super convenient mute button on top (honestly, these mics pick up so much that being able to mute is damn useful).
Can anyone recommend a cheap decent podcast mic or something similar? I live alone so I don't need headphone when teaching online, but we now have use a mic to "look" more professional... Gotta pay for it myself so the cheaper the better.
