64GB Digital Voice Recorder - ZIPCIDE Digital Voice Activated Recorder with AI-Intelligent Noise Reduction, Voice Activated Sound Audio Tap Recorder Device for Lectures Meetings, Work, Interviews

Small enough to easily stick in a pocket or hang on your neck, but not so small you lose it in your pocket. About the size of a pack of gum. UI is bare-bones, but audio quality is great for "note to self" stuff. Buttons are easily accessible, and no need to carry an extra "dongle" to get to the buttons to play back audio on the device. Takes a few seconds to wake up and record from the power-off state but doesn't seem to be long enough to lose my thoughts. Password feature keeps your recordings are secure, and also won't even let you connect to a computer without putting the password in first. "Music" feature doesn't have any folder structure or ability to organize files - just lumps them all into one list together. No 3.5mm / 1/8" audio jack, but a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter is included for both listening, and also as a line-in recording source. It comes with a cheap set of ear buds, but I prefer to connect it to a Bluetooth transmitter so I can use my Bluetooth earbuds to transcribe my recordings to my ToDo list / calendar / planner. Wish I would have found this a long time ago. No more need to carry bulky 3x5 cards for capturing thoughts or notes.

This works perfectly. Try to test it a few times before you need it. It works well for meetings and keeping voice notes. I only wish they had blue ink!

There are WAY more bad reviews on this than I originally realized. Convenience of functionality is a two. Several extra ink refills are good but I bought this specifically for the auto voice activation recording which turned out to be a brazen lie in the advertising. Even if you purchase the insurance with it, still not worth it to then have to goe through all the time consuming processes before you get things resolved to the point of searching for a new option, just too much wasted time involved.

This records well but its impossible to know IF it's recording. Thank God I also records with my phone as I used it at a meeting and got home to find it hadn't recorded anything but my discussion in the car when I thought I had turned it off I had actually turned it on! If there was an easy way to see if it was recording, it would be great. It picked up well in a large room with multiple speakers. But that's not helpful if you dont know if it's on or not.

Works great. Compact. Makes nice clear recordings. Charge seems to last forever. I bought this primarily because you can easily start a recording with one button flick. No menus or multiple buttons needed. It's great for recording those deep thoughts and ideas that you have when between wakefulness and sleep - so you can laugh at them later.

My daughter loves world building and story telling but is not yet confident in writing. We got one of these for her to record all her imaginings and she loves it! It’s easy enough for a barely-7-year-old to use and so far she hasn’t maxed out the storage or damaged it in any way, even with frequent and sometimes silly use. She has no problem charging it up when needed and the battery holds up to her extended use. The quality is sufficient for our purposes. It does the job and was worth the price, in my estimation.

So far it has been one of my better purchases. That actually works and made to look like a pen that will write with refills Well thought out . Records quite superior

Works and is excellent

It's a very simple recording device. I bought it based on the reviews, but I had to return it right away. It's not useful at all.

I got this device to record my class lectures and work presentations, and it works perfectly so far. It’s compact and performs well. With a 64GB storage capacity, it offers plenty of space for recordings, and the battery will last for up to 24h so plenty of recording time. The quality of recording is pretty descent especially for the size. Despite its size it feel strong as apart for the buttons and the screen it is all made of metal. One feature I find very useful and apricate is the voice activation. It eliminates long stretches of silence during recordings, saving time when listening back or transcribing. The controls are easy to understand and well-design to the device’s small size. The colour digital screen is sharp, easy to read, and the menu navigation is intuitive, making it simple to operate even for first-time users. This recorder is powered by a rechargeable internal battery, and with the included USB-C cable, it charges efficiently. A full charge provides up to 24 hours of continuous recording, which is fantastic for extended sessions. Other handy features include password protection to keep you recording secure in case you loose it, variable play speeds, an A-B repeat function, MP3 playback (but I would probably never listen music with it), a screensaver, and one-touch delete, among others. Included in the box you have a USB C charging cable, a headphone and adaptor to connect the headphone. Overall, this is a well-designed and discreet recording device packed with useful functions. I’d definitely recommend it!

A lovely compact unit, which arrived well boxed and in a protective tray, along with a USB connection cable and a pair of plug-in earphones. The unit is nicely made with all the controls working with a positive movement. It’s small enough to keep in a pocket, and fits comfortably in the hand, so available to take notes at any time. Sound recording quality is clear and loud, and playback volume can be adjusted with a rocker control on the side. The screen is illuminated so it can be read in low light. It’s versatile, very easy to use, and ideal for writers, students or those who need to take notes on the move. Some nice features are: One press recording Multiple recording formats: MP3, WAV, etc. Power on password protection The headphones included in the set are very basic. It would be great if Bluetooth headphones could be connected, and it would also be helpful if a lanyard could be attached, but these are minor points, which would no doubt increase the very competitive price point of the recorder. However, one thing that could be done is to increase the point size of the minuscule text in the instruction leaflet! That all said, I’m very pleased with the performance of this recorder. It’s great value, well-made for the price, easy to use and works equally as well as recorders costing considerably more. Recommended.

I do not typically write reviews but I felt compelled to do so for this device. I was trying to find a discreet, compact, and easy to use recording device for work. I do not require a recording device for fine measurements or sensitive scientific research. If you are in a professional environment or are dealing with clients or colleagues where instruction must be executed properly, this will definitely have you covered. The photos are a little misleading. I thought it would be much larger than it actually is. The device is about the length of my index finger and only slightly thicker. It fits perfectly into a button up shirt or suit jacket pocket. It picks up sound very well and you can hear the conversation clearly enough considering the price range. Recording quality is maybe a 7/10 but when you factor the price it's a 10/10. If you want to record a phone call however, it would need to be on speaker. For those reviews that mentioned it felt cheap or fragile, I would argue otherwise. It has a good weight to it making it feel sturdy. I am in a technical field and my professional opinion is that the housing/casing is well made with great fitment having minimal gaps. You can squeeze and twist the unit without body creaks or flex. The plastic feels stiff and sturdy. The buttons and switches are also very tactile and responsive. I was a little concerned when some reviews stated that it could not record for the period of time advertised. I used the device for the first time upon arrival and it lasted my full 9 hour day. It had approximately 80% battery life when I plugged it in for charging with it completing its charge in 15 minutes. The device did not continuously record for 9 hours. However, it would seem that it is sound activated. If left "on" it will record when it picks up a sound or conversation. If it can pick up and catch conversations with accuracy, this is actually ideal as it splices the recordings into smaller files for easier review. I will continue to monitor how well it does this but for the price it has been impressive so far.

This voice recorder is of excellent quality, super easy to use and has a long battery life. Strong magnet. Its small, compact design makes it very convenient. Like it !
