No good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do not like this very hard to understand the instructions, I still have two parts that I recorded and I could not erase them. that's why I do not recommend it to anybody, besides I leave it recording and it turns itself off and the battery is quickly lowered.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Rated 3 out of 5 stars

I got this midpriced recorder and it is junk.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hold this recorder to my mouth and speak in a middle voice. I can barely hear it when played back. I thought maybe it is just my voice. so I took with me to an art lesson and recorded my male art instructors voice 1' from him and can hear very few words with it held to my ear. bad recorder.

Not intuitive/user friendly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought we might use this for casual dictation instead of using our cell phones. Was not easy to use. Was hoping it would be more intuitive, rather than read the manual we decided to use our cell phones and MP3 player for recording. On the upsaide, taking the recorder back was super easy! The customer service staff at Best Buy Arden Fair in Sacramento made the return process quick and painless! Always great customer service at Arden Fair.

Not good sound playback
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise distortion is horrible. It's sound after a recording, is all garbled. Even when I help it up to my mouth to record, it was unclear. There was no other distractions in the room that I recorded in. I returned it and upgraded to a Sony. So much better!

Not Good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted this recorder to tape the noise my neighbors make. The recorder didn't pick it up. It only picked up the voices in my house, not the noise from the neighbors. I specifically asked the sales associate if the recorder can do that and was told yes.
