Review on Optimized for SEO: Sony ICD-SX25 Digital Voice Recorder by Shane Wallace

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great device! on digital recorders

I work as a journalist and I love this little portable pen. I was able to integrate it with the speech recognition software that came with it, saving me hours of time dictating my articles onto a flash drive and then having the computer transcribe them for me. I've also managed to get over a month of battery life, although I'm still confused as to why the battery level drops when the recorder is full, only to increase when the recordings are transferred from the flash drive to the computer. Make sure you hold it straight or you will hear the sound of your hand touching the metal. I've found that an external microphone (I bought it from an electronics store for $50 and it works GREAT) solves this problem and gives much better sound quality even remotely than using the recorder's built-in microphone. Shift Key This can be a bit confusing at first and sometimes the little buttons on the machine are hard to press, but I solve this problem by using the tip of my writing utensil.

Pros
  • fingers crossed
