Is it better than the Blue Yeti?
For video calls and solo voice recording, the Rode sounds just as good or better. The Blue Yeti wins in versatility (4 patterns). The Rode wins in size and portability.
Does it work with iPad and iPhone?
Yes. The USB-C connector is compatible with iPad Pro and iPhone 15+. You'll need a USB-C to Lightning adapter for older iPhones.
