How to find a built-in microphone in the laptop

Many laptops are built with tiny microphones built into the box, reducing the number of peripherals needed when using Skype or using voice commands. But nevertheless. Because microphones so small, they can be difficult to locate. You may not know where to direct your voice when speaking for better reception, and it may happen that you are not even sure that your laptop has a built-in microphone. But as long as you know where the standard positions for integrated microphones are, the search for that elusive sound hole should be pretty easy.

Steps to follow:

one

Consult the documentation of your laptop and information brochures included. If your laptop has a microphone, it is usually mentioned here, and the manual sometimes includes a demo of the diagram that explains which part of the laptop's body the microphone is on .

two

Examine the edges of the LCD screen to find a small hole called "micro" or a microphone icon. Built-in microphones are often found at the top of the screen, especially when there is a built-in webcam directly next to it.

3

Search the edges of the body of your laptop. Some notebook models position the internal microphone above the keyboard, just below the hinge.

4

Check the "start / control panel" options if you have a microphone option in the Audio section. This means that you also have a software to use the micro.
