    Works well. Batteries last a long time. Instructions could be a little clearer but we got it figured out. Bought to document a meeting and it picked up our conversation perfectly. Small size makes it unobtrusive and vary easy to handle. Digital only - does not make a tape.

    I had a different brand of a digital voice recorder which recorded fine but I just couldn't get it to play back. This is not an issue with the Sony recorder. It is very easy to use and works very well for my purpose

    Pros: here is how I have put it to use: 1) Wanted something handy to record my kids first words. I was able to record it among and other moments. 2) Handy way to get a nice read out loud --> record --> repeat for technical material where there is no convenient text --> speech. Cons: 1) Background noise as the mic settings was extra sensitive to ambient noise. The noise filter was able to cut it out to an extent. 2) No way to transfer audio content (but this was in there in the specification)

    Purchased item to record things that pop to mind. For that purpose, the recorder works great and the price was reasonable. The reason I gave 4-stars is not because of the product, but availability of recorders in the Best Buy store. On-line, Best Buy has many, many selections to choose from; however in my store location, there was only 3. Therefore, while this product does for what I need it for, it was not my 1st choice.

    I purchased this voice recorder as a special and unique Christmas gift for my grandmother. I was pleased with the quality of sound it produced with recording my own voice as well as recording previously recorded voicemails from my cell phone from our passed loved one. As important as it was to get the sound quality just right, which it did, I also liked the easy to use features such as the moving from one recording to the next. My grandmother loves her gift and that makes me so very happy.

    I really enjoy the old school tape recorder when you need to listen or tape a meeting that you are unable to attend. Easy hands on training on how to use it. Plus can be play on USB 3 over the car vehicle stereo system.

    I purchased this recorder because I am the note taker for my bi-weekly unit meetings. I was sick and tired and tired and sick of not being able to read my notes due to bad hand writing. This recorder solved my problem. Now all I do is turn it on and press record. Problem solved.
