Using Old Phone Mic on Raspberry Pi

[sgarg15]

Hey guys,

So i wanted to add voice control on my mirror and i was looking for a mic. Then i found this old phone i had, it looks like this

And i am wondering if its possible to take the mic out of the phone and use it on the mirror?
And if anyone has done this before please let me know

Thanks

Thanks that sounds like a good idea but the reason i wanted to use an old phone was so that i didnt have to buy things, even if its only a dollar or two, so if you have other ideas please let me know
