Poor quality, good for portable audio and video

Agree with the previous reviewer: My voice recorder lost its record button in the first week. I had a previous generation Sony recorder that served me well for almost two years before I thought it would be a good idea to change it (mainly for cosmetic reasons) so this device is hardly suitable for everyday use . run as long as you can

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • No automatic

I thought it might be my feature but I swapped it out for another one and encountered the same problem. In addition, the constant display quickly drains the batteries.

Pros
  • Durable Test Results
Cons
  • Some Cons

Inexpensive and of high quality in the vicinity.

In my senior year, I had to type notes and post them on the class website for review. I had a problem. I'm very bad at taking notes and tend to get most of my knowledge from reading and face-to-face conversations with classmates and teachers. So I decided my only hope was to record the class so I could listen to things I missed during class. I did a little searching and this recorder seemed like the best for the money. I'm happy with my decision. The quality is perfect for the voice - I…

Pros
