Best Vlogging Microphone Rode VideoMicro VS Boya BY-MM1 External Video Mic - Which One Is Best?

In this video I'm doing a straight up Rode VideoMicro VS Boya BY-MM1 comparison by way of a blind audio A/B test to see which on is the best vlogging microphone.

Both of these microphones are sometimes called shotgun microphones but neither of the these mics are a shotgun mic. They are both short bodied pencil cardiod condenser microphones. Or to be be more accurate, they are electret condenser microphones ECM.

To understand what the difference is between a shotgun microphone and a cardioid microphone here's a video explaining how a shotgun microphone works.

Both of these microphones also come with cold shoe mounting adaptors so you can attach them to a camera. Which one do think is the best on camera microphone between these two.
