Sony ICD-PX370 Mono Digital Voice Recorder with Built-In USB Voice Recorder,black

Works well. Good microphone. USB makes it easy to transfer files to a computer. Interface is simple and user-friendly.

Ok, so this is my third digital voice recorder! I returned the first two because they could not pick up voice sounds from more than a few feet away, and had no volume control. I have yet to test this one in a lecture since I just got it this afternoon but I will next Monday. So far it's great. I recorded a YouTube video on very low volume with the recorder several feet away. The recording was crystal clear and I was able to turn up the volume to a fairly loud setting to play it back. It wasn't even necessary to turn up the volume in order to hear the recording well but I wanted to see how loud it could go. The volume is quite sufficient. Also, it is easy to figure out how to use, unlike the others. It also has a quality feel to it, & not like it came from the toy section of the dollar store. Granted it's not a $400 recorder but for the money it works very well and I am keeping this one! It's a keeper!

Works very good. The instructions could be better. And it does feel a little cheap for 60 bucks but so I'm all it works good. It does what it's suppose to do. Let good portable small pocket sized recorder. Good battery life pretty easy to navigate though wish the instructions didn't leave stuff out like allot of the different options or scenes. But decent recorder

I bought this secondhand from Amazon and it has worked wonderful. I am a graduate student going into clinicals for counseling where I will be recording sessions. This device allows it to hook up to my computer and import it super easily as well as traveling with. It is super light and able to go almost anywhere in a pocket. Easy to work as well!

I needed a recorder track my own improved on the guitar and ukulele. I've been trying to learn. Works well. Great size well made, very easy to use. Im 60 years old and wanted something simple. Very pleased with over all quality and price.

I initially bought this model 2 years ago to secretly record my two young nieces as they just talk non stop about random stuff, and are so entertaining. I got some hilarious clips from them to turn into fun recordings with music. This particular purchase was sent back because my original recorder wasn't "lost" like I thought it was. Fast forward, my adult nephew needed some help and moved in with me "temporarily", but ended up being just a freeloader who likes to scream and verbally abuse anyone who simply questions him about minor things. I was stunned at the screaming sessions he had when I would ask him things like "could you please clean your food out of the kitchen drain" or "Hey, could you make sure to flush the toilet after going #2". I'd get 20 minutes of random argument about things that had nothing to do with those things.. No one would believe me that he was so obnoxious. So, I made sure this little recorder was nearby at all times, because he could start this obnoxious behavior very unexpectedly. And, it worked out. A couple of the recordings had him threatening to destroy my house, my car, let my pets out to roam free, steal my property, take apart my newly build deck. I let him know I had that all saved and if he wasn't out in 45 days, I'd use it all during the eviction process. It worked - he's gone and my sanity is back. It's small enough to be tucked behind something to go unnoticed, or fit in the front pocket of my hoodie. The battery seems to last pretty long. I use rechargeable batteries so I have one ready to snap in as needed. I loved that I can plug this into my computer to save the recordings. The controls are very easy to memorize so you don't even have to look down to get the recording started. The quality of the recordings is really good. I can't speak for how good it picks up in a large lecture room or hall for classes, meetings or conferences. But, it picks up conversation from another room well.

Absolutely impressed with the premium quality of this recorder! The audio clarity is crystal clear, and the build feels professional and solid in hand. It performs flawlessly and exceeds all expectations. A top-tier device for anyone who needs high-quality sound recording. 5 stars!

Purchased this item in Aug. 2022. It worked great. Added an SD card & put a ton of music on it. Used it to record reminders, details for work, & listen to music. Worked great w/ decent headphones, w/ great sound. Features on the item were great, too, esp. the shuffle option for the music. I had owned an earlier model several years before (not made anymore), & the same issues happened w/ it that led me to purchase this model. Well, the same things that happened w/ that one has happened w/ this one. The headphone jack got loose, & began to cut in & out, depending on the position of the device in my pocket; I even used 90-degree adapters to reduce strain on the jack. Now the power on/off/hold button slides up & down, completely free, & doesn't work anymore; I can't even turn off the hold. The item is completely shot & useless now. For the price I paid, this thing should've lasted at least another couple of years. I did notice another reviewer had the same issue w/ the power button, & he contacted Sony, & they sent him a brand new recorder w/ no questions asked. That's fine, but if they send me a new device, will the same thing occur after a year of use? To me, it's just bad design, & I've lost my patience w/ Sony. Over the last 15 years, most of the Sony products I've bought & used, like headphones (wires came loose), stereo components (buttons quit working, dials stopped functioning, LED's burned out), et. al., developed problems, or quit working altogether, w/i a year +/- a couple of months. In most cases, w/ respect to the cost of repairs, it was cheaper just buy a new device. Back in the '70's & '80's, Sony stuff was deemed high-end; now, it's just plain run-of-the-mill garbage, w/ no quality of parts or acceptable durability. I paid $46 for this device, & I had paid over $40 for the previous model I had owned; in other terms, that's a tank of petrol for my vehicle, & my vehicle is 17 yrs. old & still running great, & has <98,000 miles. I think, w/ the way technology has developed, I ought to get a couple more years out of a small device for that kind of money. As far as Sony products now, "thus quoth the Raven...nevermore."

I needed a device to record interviews and events in the field. Although the camera mic is good, it picks up more me than the subject and ambient noise as well, making the final product very difficult to edit for clarity. This device you can ask a subject to hold it in their hand, and even if they scream over ambient noise, it doesn't distort or over modulate. Its quite impressive for the price. Its omni directional so you don't have to get precious about how they hold it either. And the sound quality is certainly good enough for most uses. The built in speaker is just to make sure the file is there. Don't judge it from that. The only tricky bit is knowing how to move a given file from the built in memory to a micro-sim so you can move it to your editing computer. But it has a built in USB 2 connector so you can move files right from the device as well. Not so useful once you have moved to USB C though. I have found this device to be MUCH more useful than similar ones costing hundreds. Mostly because the mic is omnidirectional, which for field interviews is much better than HQ mics which change volume when the subject moves their head a little.
