      Fr and for that price, just go with the dji mics… and if that’s not good enough, get Rhode lavalier mics to plug into the dji wireless mics

    That’s a rough thing to demo. It doesn’t sound as good as your more expensive set up.

    I imagine if you had compared it to phone mic or EarPod mic or a laptop mic it may have had a chance to sound better.

    As it is, you showed me a thing with multiple parts and then showed me it didn’t sound very good compared to the only thing I could compare it to (the rest of that clip).

    No that audio test was a flop…. go do yhe dji mics

    Agree, that audio was not good

  6. Toby Divine

    Yeah it sounded muffled when you switched to that mic. Not good. It’s so big !! I should sound better!

    What mic were you using for this video?

    Looks like a makeup case with audio that isn’t the greatest at all.

    Nice video but definitely not impressed with that sound quality. Was wonderful what they might sound like. I think they sound like $80 dollar mics to be honest.

    I wonder if this also steals your data contrary to their claims like Ankers Eufy line.

    Really though this product seems quite mid. Doesn’t even sound better than onboard mics nowadays with their big arrays.

    • The Gadget Guru

      January 15, 2023 at 6:08 am

      What do you mean the Anker eufy steals your data?

    • Beef Ingot

      January 15, 2023 at 7:04 am

      @The Gadget Guru Look up the recent data issue. Turns out its not local at all and they upload all your data, unencrypted counter to their promise that it would be all local. One of the recent wan shows also covers it.

    • The Gadget Guru

      January 15, 2023 at 4:07 pm

      @Beef Ingot ???? thank god for wikipedia so yeah I just had a look I personally can’t believe Anker did that how is that even possible images and data should be deleted the moment your account is deleted or even the data it collects

    Alot of people are comparing it to the youtube channels high end microphone, need a proper comparison against other devices

    What mic is host wearing normally?

    • The Gadget Guru

      January 15, 2023 at 6:07 am

      Normally in most cases a clip on mic that amplifies their voice it’s usually work somewhere close like a shirt

  13. The Gadget Guru

    January 15, 2023 at 6:05 am

    Wow that’s 250 eh? I can’t really much of a difference but that’s probably just me and my ears ????

    A giant white hockey puck as a microphone? How do you put a dead cat on it?

The VC Backing the American Dream with Manan Mehta, Unshackled Ventures

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground.

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground. Visa restrictions, limited access to friends-and-family capital, shallow networks, and a venture industry built around pattern matching can keep promising founders from getting funded before they have a chance to prove themselves.

In this episode of Build Mode () , host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Manan Mehta, co-founder and managing partner of Unshackled Ventures, () to talk about why he believes immigrant founders represent one of venture capital’s biggest overlooked opportunities. Manan breaks down how Unshackled built an investment model designed to help founders navigate immigration barriers, why traditional VC pattern matching causes investors to miss potential outliers, and how his team evaluates founders at day zero—often before they have a product, customers, or traction. He also explains why the structural gaps that make some founders harder to fund may be exactly where investors should be looking for outsized returns.

They get into:

The four structural barriers immigrant founders face when starting companies in the U.S.

How Unshackled Ventures helps founders navigate visas while building their startups

Why VC’s reliance on pattern matching can cause investors to miss outlier founders

How Manan evaluates founders before they have a product, customers, or traction

The IQ, AQ, EQ, and SQ framework Unshackled uses to evaluate founder potential

Why resilience, lived experience, and a founder’s relationship to the problem can matter more than a polished pitch

Why structural gaps can create some of the biggest opportunities for investors

How founders without traditional networks can find alternative paths to early capital

Why founders should understand their personal “why” instead of trying to fit the traditional VC mold
