Review on πŸŽ™οΈ OM Digital Solutions VN-120 SEO-Optimized Digital Voice Recorder by Steven Stager

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Bulky and cumbersome, but very reliable and durable

The VN-120 works well enough for me to take notes, but I can't say I like it very much. I bought this to replace a missing Olympus VN-900 and I really like the old VN-900 better. The VN-120 is bigger, really a bit bulky compared to the storage space I use for it in my car. The VN-120 is also much more awkward to use. On the VN-900 you can delete a note by double-clicking Delete. For the VN-120, you need to press "Delete", toggle to "yes" and then press "Enter"; These are three separate buttons, and therefore it is inconvenient to work with your eyes closed. I would return it but Revain no longer seems to stock the VN-900. **** [Note added 7 years after purchase] This thing still works perfectly after 7 years. I've adjusted to size and drive a different car with a little more room in the driver's door armrest. It's a little fiddly to remove, but I'm increasing my rating from three to four stars for durability. It works great with NiMH batteries.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not an automaton
