It works!
Why did i pick it? I was looking for a stereo mic, ready and quick to use, something to place and go, for both studio and field recording, with a good sound. The other option was the AT BP4025 but to me it doesn't sound as good as the NT4, this is the main reason why i purchased the Rode.
How does it sounds?
To me it sounds very balanced and natural, not too boomy and not too bright, some people prefer brighter mics (not my case, they easily become harsh unless very good ones).
Stereo image is not too wide and this brings a good mono-compatibility which is good for studio applications and 16db of self noise are tolerable.
It is well made, all metal, just pay some attention to the capsules: they may be a bit delicate, i won't let it fall.
Alternatives: there are not so many stereo mics out there, otherwise a stereo pair (separates) could be a good choice, more flexible, more options and cheaper (be aware that NT5s are identical but they cost less), this works if time is not a problem and you're not as lazy as i am.
PROs:
-sound
-ease of use
CONS:
-a bit bulky
-delicate?
Would i buy it again? Yes!

Sounds Good, but only one trick pony
Sound quality is overal good. Having fixed capsule correlation at 90 degree is great thing for phase, but sometimes it can be limiting. As drum overhead, it's super easy to position, but you get stucked with fixed stereo image. MS procesing can help litle in widening stereo image, but don't expect wonders here.
Sounds great on acoustic guitar, easy to find sweetspot, nice stereo efect without thinking about phase issues.
Used it on Backround vocals. 4 singers around a mic, 3feet away. Sounded nice, with no too much room.

Stereo Widener Mic
I wanted to easily record acoustic guitar on stereo mode without double tracking (Left and Right).
Pros: wide stereo, clarity and heavy duty mic. The Mic comes in a plastic box which is heavy duty as well and it has all the necessary accessories such as cables and mic air filter cover. The Mic works on a phantom power/Battery.
Cons: None.
My favorite mic for recording stereo.

Very good sound for the price.
Capsules are good, I am not a recording pro so i needed a mic that captures sound without much possibility of going wrong. X/Y stereo only, very clear and clean sound.

Very robust
The NT4 blew me away on the first few tests i did with it in the field - have yet to use in studio application.
The build is very solid, quite some weight to the microphone. Sound quality is fantastic - representative of the price point.
only some slight issues.
One of the XY capsules doesn’t fully tighten onto the microphone itself.
You tighten it to a point and then it loosens itself . I sincerely hope this will not be an issue in the long run.
Another disappointment is that the microphone does not ship with a dedicated hard case - which would be very much appreciated for the price. Thankfully, i have built a foam case specifically for the NT4, so it’s not the biggest problem, but it would still be nice to have the option.
It is possible that they left this out to keep the price more attractive to buyers!
Highly recommended purchase, really enjoying the NT4’s sound!

Rode NT4
This is a superb piece of kit for any studio. The addition of the NT4 to my studio set-up has meant that my acoustic guitar and drums tracking has improved immeasurably. It's a versatile mic and even worked really well when recording an Irish harp. There's very much a 'point and shoot' aspect to this mic which really saves time when you're under pressure. I would highly recommend this mic for any small or midsized home/project studio that is considering expanding its mic collection.
