Review on RCA VR5340 800-Hour Digital Voice Recorder with Full-Color Display - Enhanced for SEO by Bryan Gilliam

Revainrating 4 out of 5

the more they lose the qualities I like. I like batteries for that so I can.

The newer the recorders, the more features I like. I like batteries for that so I can carry them around and pop in new ones right away whether I have access to an outlet or not. I also like that I can create multiple bookmarks. If I can't listen to the whole recording at once, I don't have to rewind it from the beginning if I've been listening for an hour or more. I like that it first rewinds or rewinds slowly, then speeds up by the minute very quickly - just in case I forgot to bookmark it: I like that you have to lock it to turn it off. The other recorders were in my bag and I accidentally pressed the play button which drained the batteries. And with 800 hours I can record a lot of material. I use it to record family history and sometimes leave it on for a few hours at family gatherings. The only thing NOT better for ME is that the power indicator is on top. Then when the batteries run out - or I forgot to start recording! I won't see him when he's on the table across the room. For this reason I like the light from the front. For me a great recorder at a very good price.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Interchangeability
