You get what you pay for!

Before I get to the review part I want to say something. This thing is as strong as vibranium :p . He fell twice from 4 feet and survived with only a few scratches. Now about the reason for the fall. It's so tiny and slippery and has no handles. So if you plan to get your hands on it, you need to be a little careful. Pros: * The quality of the stereo microphone on the top is good. * All control buttons are easily accessible. * Organizing recorded files into separate folders allows you to easily switch between recordings. * The user interface is easy to use. It displays a real-time audio level graph on the screen* The only power source is a pair of AAA batteries and it lasts me pretty well over 2 weeks* Thanks to the retractable USB plug, you don't need to carry a cable with you every time* Multiple audio settings in the "Settings" section will help you to improve the sound quality. Cons: * Not suitable for long-distance shooting. This only gives the best results when the recording device is about a foot away from the source * The quality of the built-in speaker is terrible * The glossy finish makes it look a little nice, but is a major drawback when it comes to the recording factor * The retractable USB is a welcome addition, but at the same time the large surface area of the recorder does not allow connection to the USB port in some cases. it happened to me I tried to connect it to my laptop but it didn't work. So, to sum up all the facts, if you're getting this for recording one-on-one interviews or if you want to use it as a replacement for a handheld microphone, then it's perfect. It is not suitable for long-distance camera shooting. Considering the price range and all the qualities of this PX440 this is a great choice for the money you are paying. I have a detailed review on my YouTube channel. so if you are interested you can look at the name of the channel - these are helpers

Pros
  • Best
