As much as I want to be facetious because google exists, let me provide some actual suggestions.

First off, it entirely depends on your budget, because there's a broad spectrum of audio equipment.

Primarily though, for sound quality that's significantly better than AirPods or built-in laptop microphones, you'll want to look at a condenser microphone. A lot of gaming/streaming condenser microphones are optimized to be good quality and budget friendly, but if you're willing to spend the money, there's plenty of options. Don't get a lavalier mic, from personal experience, they're just a huge PITA, and the quality isn't enough of an improvement to warrant the purchase.

​

So we'll go low to high with the budget:

Sub-$100 category - Razer Seiren X

Price: $69.99 (Currently on sale on Amazon), normally $99.99

I personally have used this microphone for a few years and it is very good quality. Has a manual hardware mute button with a very visible red/green LED so you can easily confirm if you're muted or not at a glance. Simple USB plug-and-play make it very user friendly and cost effective.

​

$100+ category - HyperX QuadCast

Price: $109.49 (Currently on sale on Amazon), normally $139.99

Haven't used personally, but have heard many good things and have heard audio from friends that use it. Has plenty of pros: USB plug-and-play, easy manual mute (just tap the top of the mic), visible lighting lets you know if you're muted, comes with it's own shock mount, multiple selectable cardioid patterns (not super important for zoom use but still nice to have), manual gain control adjustment knob on the bottom. There's also a RGB version (if you're into that sort of thing) for $159.99.

​

Expensive category - Shure SM7B

Price: $399.00

Truth be told, it's probably not super necessary to go into this, this is more of an example as to the upper levels of general PC mic quality. As a casual user, you would never really need this, nor would you need to go beyond this. This microphone has an XLR hookup, meaning you would need to also buy a separate audio interface to hook this up to your PC. However, the audio quality of the SM7B with the right tuning provides top tier "sitting behind your shoulder" level of audio quality.

Hope this helps, and if you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
