Have not used all the features as yet.Fairly simple interface, starting and stopping (automatically saves) recording with a single switch. The built-in microphone works well for voice recording. Sharp and clear recording at arms length. Have not yet tried the included clip-on mic. The Settings set up is somewhat intuitive - the lengthy instructions are helpful once you locate the section in the (literally) fine print.As observed, playback from the unit is not hi-fi with its fingernail size speaker. I saved in mp3 format so it was easy to save to my laptop and play them from there, much better! The USB cable is a bit short, but it works perfectly for file transfers and charging.I have not used it outdoors as yet, I'll see how it deals with background noise. Adjusting the gain will probably help with that.Smaller than my cell phone, feels solidly built, unlike my phone. Small screen requires my eyeglasses, but so does everything. Buttons are well sized, solid - note that the built-in mic will pick up the click if you are recording.

This recorder works very well. The sound quality is impressive and also has excellent features such as online recording and can also be used as an external secondary microphone, it's easy to use and carry around, absolutely convenient and very impressive The sound is very clear and captures everything, it's a very sturdy device. Plays very loud and it picks up the sound very well.

It's definitely a good choice for those who are concerned about the safety and quality of their recordings. It's rugged, the instructions are clear and easy to understand, and the sound quality is excellent. The battery life is amazing. I was pleasantly surprised. It feels durable, it's compact, and it's better than I thought it would be

I bought this because of reported solid construction , that it was listed as Amazon first choice , price , and usb C interface . Most if not all future devices will be using usb C after the international conference a few years ago . It works very well for what I am doing these days . I will be using it to record instructions mostly on how to use my computer for paying bills , taxes , retirement jobs which my wife did when I was working. It works fine for long playback . It comes with long instructions because it is capable of doing many things if you want to do many different things. Just recording and playing back is actually simple and easy . I am a retired physician and had to dictate medical notes all day for 30 + years. If you are doing lots of dictation then a larger recorder that fits the hand and has larger buttons would be better . When you dictate medical notes ( and if you are a perfectionist ) you are constantly rewinding , listening to short segments , rephrasing to make it easier read later. This device is smaller and better suited for recording things like conferences. You can rewind and listen to shorter segments when you long press the rewind . Short pressing rewind would jump from one music track to another if you are recording music . I don’t do any of the music stuff . Overall excellent recorder .

The best thing about this recorder is that it is small and lightweight, and takes up no space at all in your pocket or bag. Functionally, with playback, voice control and noise cancellation, it meets most of my needs. The noise cancellation effect is good in the low to medium price range, which is enough to cope with the general environment. The voice-activated recording is highly accurate and can effectively save storage space and power.

This voice recorder exceeded my expectations! It’s compact, easy to use, and captures crystal-clear audio even in noisy environments. The battery life is impressive, and transferring files to my computer is a breeze. Whether I’m recording lectures, interviews, or personal notes, this device performs flawlessly.

I was looking for an affordable hand recorder but so many of them get bad reviews or cost hundreds of dollars. This one had a decent review. Its made by the same company as my old one that just died last week after charging after not being used for a long time. This one has better features. The noise control on it works really well for my application. I use it to record my dreams. I have a loud white noise maker that my old one had no noise cancellation, so I'd have to get under the covers to record my voice to get away from recording the white noise. This just about kills ALL the white noise so my voice is real clear on the recording! I have it set on max noise control on 5 and it comes set that way anyway. It has a good gain control too. Straight out of the box its way too high and distorts my voice from it being set too high, but is easy to reduce the volume, and for office meetings the ability to control the recording volume is great. The speaker of course is really tiny and doesn't sound good but if you plug headphones in, its pretty good, but even on the highest bit rate it sounds pretty digital but not a problem for me. Recordds to WAV or MP3 tool.It does have a built in microphone but for you business types it has a lapel microphone which is a nice touch. Haven't tried it but don't need it really. Price is reasonable. The manual has a lot of reading to do, but its pretty intuitive. No idea on battery life but I suspect its pretty long, it came fully charged. It also came with the tiny TF SD card already installed, so thats another nice touch. I looked at so many of these recorders and not many of them have noise control, which I needed, and most of them had really confusing non-intuitive weird features or were just way too expensive my needs.
