Review on Olympus J300 Microcassette Recorder by Joseph Stone

Revainrating 4 out of 5

OK, but not quite there.

I like the size and it fits comfortably in my breast pocket. When I want to transcribe notes in class, I prefer headphones for private listening so I can work in the library. This device has a connector, but it requires a micro connector, which is not found on regular headphones. The adapter is also difficult to find. Minicassettes are easy to find at office supply stores, and headphone jacks are almost impossible to find.

Pros
  • Built-in dynamic speaker for crystal clear sound; does not include a blank microcassette (as stated on packaging)
Cons
  • Available in white only
