The Package

The box depicts the microphone on its own and in action, with two people sharing it between themselves. The technical specifications are nowhere to be seen, but the four pickup patterns are covered in detail to emphasize the multi-functional nature of the Movo UM700.


Here's what you'll find inside the box. Aside from the microphone attached to its metal stand, there's a 3-meter Micro-USB cable, pop filter, and instruction manual. The contents of the box are protected with a thick layer of foam, so the microphone should survive usual shipping grievances.


Unfortunately, the pop filter comes preinstalled on the head of the microphone and gets squished by the protective foam during shipping, which is why one of its sides is creased. The creases didn't disappear even after the microphone sat on my table for several days, so it's safe to say they are there to stay. On the upside, the other side of the pop filter is completely smooth, so you can simply turn the creased part away from view should you find it as annoying as I did.
