Hi,
As I am aiming for better PC compatibility and audio quality and I'm gonna use the USB option line.
I gotta chose between USB, USB+ and USBi.
I am mainly recording game steams, Skype conversations and making youtube videos.
1. USBi offers the best ADC 24bit 94 kHz sampling rate and a wider vocal range. It is also the priciest one

2. USB+ offers a wider vocal range and a bunch of inputs and knobs for controlling the audio steam as the middle-range price

3. The plain USB version has the same audio resolution as USB+ and just a volume knob and it is also the cheapest. Yes I know the link is for the XLR version ...

So my questions are the following:
1. Can I really distinguish the 24 bit resolution of 16 bit resolution. I guess the audio will be more clear, otherwise do you think USBi is worth the money ?
2. As I am be mainly home steaming from my PC USB+ seems to be the better option, but do I really need this audio output anyway ?
3. I suppose all of these are compatible with the apple stuff. Does this mean that it will be compatible with my Note 4 phone ?
4. The plain USB version is the cheapest one, but this does not make it less OK since it's a very good mic. Only looses the headphone mixer.
5. In the review, they are talking about an audio delay, how much is that delay and will I have an audio that falls behind relative to the picture ?
6. My current mic is Philips SBC MD150 karaoke. Do you thing there will be improvement in my recordings ?
Which one if these three must be the best option according to you guys ?
