Review on Aketek 8GB Multifunctional Rechargeable Audio Voice Recorder Dictaphone MP3 Player FM Radio (12) by Dee Rawls

At first glance, all this seemed quite normal. The UI is silly and recording starts 5-20 seconds after you click record, but you'll get used to the quirks over time. The biggest problem I had was using the footage. These recorders routinely skip about a second of audio at regular intervals. I have no idea why that is, but in a 15 minute shot I usually have about 10 of these drops. In addition, these things basically become a burden because you never know when they will be cut and what will be left out. Advantages: Small USB stick. Good battery life. Good sound quality. Cons: plastic. recording disorders. Fragile USB ports. USB, not micro
