Ok, I am using this mic with my iPad Air 2 for recording vocals and live sound fx. It reminds me very much of the Rode NT1000 sound wise, a very impressive design for such an inexpensive tool. The pick up is very sensitive so I totally recommend using the pop filter when recording vocals or outdoor recording. 
You get everything you need here, cables, tripod desk stand which can also be used as a small hand held boom, I've been doing this and it's great. At 96kHz you are pretty much covered for high pitched distortion causing sounds, I did the key jingle test with this mic and it actually surpassed some of my 8 and 9 hundred dollar mics. It's perfect for your iPad studio.
The mic didn't even come close to the quality of the zoom. It was a little bit better than the built in mic, but not $230 worth better. Had high hopes but really dissappointed. Thankfully BH has been great about having it returned.

The quality of the recorded audio is excellent. Extremely easy plug and play. Have used it for vocals, ukulele, and Native American Flute. The only negatives, and it has nothing to do with the MiC, is that despite it's obvious portability, it does not come with a case. Also, the included three-foot cable can limit your setup options.

I opted to buy the Apogee case and their nine-foot cable, which adds an additional $58 dollars to the cost. And I found the lightweight tripod to be prone to tipping over if used as depicted in the photo.
