    Perfect Recorder, sounds great, picks up everything around you and looks great. Perfect size, discrete and the controls are easy to understand. Perfect for recording important notes instead of having to carry a notebook and pen. Purchased for my mother, she has Parkinson's and cannot write comfortably, this was a great way for her to keep notes/memos for her.

    This digital recorder is exactly what I was looking for. Picks up your dictation or conversations perfectly, even in crowded noisy places. Easy to use and having the USB right in it to charge and transfer files is an added plus.

    Great tool. I use it on federal job walkthroughs and put it on auditorium setting and it’s clear even though we’re all walking and talking in large groups. Many different settings for different types of use. Memory card expansion if needed. USB charging system that can also plug directly into a computer.

    Works pretty well, and it's easy to navigate. I do have mixed feelings about the USB connector being the way to charge it, but the battery life is long enough that it's not a huge hassle.

    I used this to go ghost hunting with my mom on Halloween & it worked very well!! Although we didn’t catch anything (sadly), every single thing was caught on this. Everytime I walked, you could the grass crunch under me. You could hear my small sniffles because of the cold, the audio is very clear & you are able to save multiple recordings. I have been very impressed with this, it’s been nothing but reliable.

    Been great for sanity checks! I am in a long term committed relationship to the love of my life. Originally I bought this so we could record ASMR type sounds with the ability to drown out unnecessary background noise. That works great, even utilizing only the internal microphones. Ultimately I have found more use in recording things I've said in our conversations so I can actually have my epic "RIGHT" moment from time to time! Thanks, Sony!

    This thing is super nice. It’s easy to set up, read, and use. I’ve had no trouble using it’s features so far, and plan to see how well it does in different settings. Just using it in my pocket, it picked up on every sound. Including my footsteps. I am very pleased with this product.

    Having this small and handy device has been a lifesaver for me, especially when it comes to protecting my privacy and security. After my initial order was stolen, I purchased another one from Best Buy, and I must say, I couldn't be happier with my decision. This clearly speaks volumes about the quality of products that Best Buy offers, making them a leader not only the electronics industry but across all sectors. I truly appreciate Best Buy's commitment to customer satisfaction. Their swift response to an issue I had years ago only solidified my trust in them. Their integrity and professionalism set them apart as a trustworthy corporation, a rarity in today's world. Thank you, Best Buy, for consistently delivering top-notch products and service. Your dedication does not go unnoticed! #BestBuy #CustomerExperience"

    I bought one of these for my brother-in-law who is a preacher. He can now record his sermons and then get them broadcasted on a local radio station. I experimented with it a bit before I gave it to him for Christmas. He absolutely loves it. Later, I decided to get one for myself to record meetings for review later. I love it too. As a test I held it in my hand and recorded some songs I played on a high quality stereo system. The recording sounded very much like stereo sounded. This is a GREAT little quality recorder & very versatile!

    It's great. Battery last long, turned on fast and easy. Only complaint is no way to secure the data if it ever gets lost. I understand that's not a typical feature, but it should be with a recorder.
