Brilliant walk through, I really don't care about Bluetooth but I understand why some people might, the reason I dislike Bluetooth is that is that in my experience the wireless pairing can be picky about devices and be a bit unreliable, in my case this device fits exactly within my needs, just ordered 2, this video was a key factor on deciding, great content, earned a sub

This is an amazing tool... I love it.

Thank you for your wonderful explanation regarding the features of this device! I'm a senior citizen, way behind technological understandings, but I understood much of what you were teaching. I may watch it a few times to grasp where to find specific features and what they're used for again. Overall, thank you so much!!!!

The little pouch for the device is actually quite handy when used as a sound buffer between device and table surface, when recording in a meeting type situation. Thanks for the review.

That’s a good point. Use ‘off the grid’ as a selling point. No doubt it appeals to many. Also, the fact that this unit is totally standalone from a software point of view is great. No app updates or dependency on Sony continuing support for the product.

if youre feeling unsafe you can reach in your pocket, switch it on and press record in less than 3 seconds without even having to take the voice recorder out of your pocket. With a smartphone you cant do that. it would look suspicious if you took it out, searched for the record app and recorded them

Audio is better. But the plus of a dictaphone is that you don’t waste your phone battery. A dedicated option will remind you more than the items that get lost on a phone. Its like having a separate notepad.

I seen many reviews - debated between Olympus ws853 and the Sony UX570. The Sony PDF manual is pretty lame. Your video convinced me to purchase this!! I like the no display time out and change rec levels during record. Thanks for going thru it all !!

I think "Sync Record" is for dubbing a CD (Or LP or Cassette or MiniDisc for that matter!.) If it is like what I have heard of in other (Sony?) devices, It will detect silences and make separate recordings (files) of each "track". Where as auto track mark would place markers on sections of a single recording (file). (When I get mine, I'll report back). This also MAY be useful to record "Ham radio" or "Scanner" traffic as it would be using the audio input cable, where a "VOX" (voice actuation) would use the built-in mics. I'm going to try both concepts when I get mine delivered.

Thanks for such a detailed review. I am using a sony ic recorder for last more than 10 yrs. and after using this I never thought of any other option. it is so good, user-friendly, lightweight. lastly, I was using its 533 model. earlier they were supplying USB cable along with it and that was very good. since I hardly used this and later both my recorder became useless all because its USB is not functioning.rest all is ok. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So, I strongly recommend using a small USB cable instead of using it directly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What kind of the mic is great to this device? Thanks for answer

Perhaps the play Range is so you can just dig on tunes in the Music and perhaps other folders (esp. would be valid on shuffle play) with out random meeting and interview recordings playing (Range of folders to play? ) Maybe? - IDK..(I just ordered this today- I'll find out!)

Ty. Im waiting for mine to arrive, paid $99 USD, on amazon, comes with ext mic and 32gb micro card.

Sync record is used for line in audio recording

Please don't ADD Bluetooth, as it'll only ADD to the cost. If you want to email an MP3, plug the device into PC with the USB and download the MP3 files. VERY good it has a 3.5 mic INPUT so an earpiece microphone pickup works great. Phone apps only take up more space and recordings fill up the phone nicely too. This recorder is just fine as it is. Also nice that you can CHANGE THE BATTERIES vs. having one Lithium battery that WILL eventually die. I had mine stuck in "Transcription Mode" and couldn't record, but saw how you turn it on/off. (Don't even know how to use that feature anyhow. This is a very good walk through of the device!

Great video! Just bought one from Amazon, you saved me a lot of time figuring it out. Lack of bluetooth is huge minus for me. I am on wireless Airpods pro and Sony XM4 and find it rediculous that I had to drag my old Apple wired headphones from the storage box in basement. I hope Sony will figure it out eventually. Thanks again for taking your time and create this video!

I still have dedicated still camera, as well as a dedicated camcorder. The ergonomics alone,IMHO are reason enough, Plus way more (real) manual shooting options ans (real) zoom lenses. I also have a Tascam DR-05X for "field" recording. I just ordered this Sony unit for it's size, (Will it "sound" as good as the Tascam? IDK, But it'll be easier to carry daily for "snapshot" recording") plus it has mic and "ear" jacks (like my TASCAM) and it's also stereo. My phone can't do stereo "voice" recording. So there IS definitely a market for these devices.

The better value offered by the DPC is the ability to slow down the playback speed, making it easier for transcribing notes. You're bang on with regard to the Bluetooth connection - obvious oversight

I started using this recorder recently. Sound quality is surprisingly good. Only obvious downside - as experienced on this video at 7.17-7.34 - is that the display automatically turns off after 30 seconds and there is apparently no way to get the display back. There is at least the red light to tell you that you are still recording, but it's a (small) drawback for me.

I agree that single-purpose devices are better for some activities, and making recordings is clearly one of those activities for me. It's probably why I still use a camera for all but casual photos. 1) using this device doesn't tie up my phone. 2) it's much faster to turn on and hit "record" than fumbling around with pulling up an app. 2) it's easier to use a separate lapel mic, which is more convenient and produces a better result in some circumstances. 4) it's easier than using my phone to offload multiple recordings onto my computer. 5) this device is slim, light, and easier to handle than a phone. I'm also not as worried about this device getting damaged. It's comparably cheap and doesn't cause me to lose access to the outside world should I drop it in a puddle or off a cliff. Yes, my recordings aren't backed up to the Cloud like they are with my phone, but that isn't usually a huge concern for me. Besides the cliff scenario, the memory card will probably work fine even if the recorder bites it.

Can we copy the voice record to transfer to the phone

I was looking into getting this for recording lectures at school in the fall, do you have any recommendations for settings that would be better for picking up someone from a bit away? I'm not very tech savy and don't much understand the customizable options here or what would be better for my predicament. Thanks!

1. What kind of the mini mic is great for this pocket voice recorder? Do I really need a mic for this or it's already great without it? 2. You can rename a file after you put it on pc or smartphone? 3. Is this is waterproof devices? 4. Can you use it bigger card then 64 GBs on it? 5. Do I need a screen protector? Or glass hold it on by itself? 6. Do you think Bluetooth is need it? I mean... I'm so afraid that headphones with cable will disappear from a market but tbh I don't think so. I bet it will be with it for at least next 20 years right? I just ordered it & I will have it this tomorrow. I can't wait for it :)

So, I'm a linguist. The sound quality on a phone is generally not high enough for the sort of analysis I do. Cell phones have poorer quality microphones and audio drivers and record in MP3, which loses a lot of vital language data due to compression. While you can improve sound quality with external microphones and third party apps to record in a lossless format, these additional components and the multi-functionality of cell phones introduce a lot of potential points of failure and unnecessary complication. It is much better to have a dedicated device that performs this function out of the box, especially if you are performing fieldwork and only have one opportunity to get the audio quality right or the data is gone.

On my model, the Stop button is soft when I press it and not as "clicky" as the Record button. Is it the same on your device?

I'm interested in buying this unit, but first I need to know if it's able to run off a USB AC adapter. If so, could someone recommend one to me?

LPCM is so much better sounding than MP3. I'm amazed at how fast and responsive this little device is. Built-in USB and memory is incredible. Never used something so simple out of the box. With their sound software, it makes it ultra simple to get files across and heard. You can even hear the recording directly on the device too. Putting time marks is also cool and many other things. It's like a lot of the controls have been forgotten to keep this simple. They should always have an LPCM option lmao. I think the reason why smartphone companies and other products for the masses omit is because people will be left longing for it. Personally, I've never even heard of LPCM and I'm on the PC all the time for decades. The clarity is just amazing. MP3 compression is not the same. :(

21:55 there's another device with Bluetooth but it's more expensive $230 model A10 with high resolution audio.

i had a phillips voice recorder that I paid about $160 for. Waste of money. you had to hold the power button for 3 seconds to turn it on and then wait another 3-5 seconds for it to startup and load. It was large and very slow. I didn't like how it was silver. If youre trying to sneak out a recorder quickly to secretly record, the phillips wasnt the one. Its huge and flashy. I bought this sony. It is 5x faster. It turns on basically immediately and there are many situations where this will be much more convenient. It is smaller, more durable, doesnt scratch easy, and is a lot easier to use. The only thing I dont like is if you rub the sony recorder or if its sliding in your pocket, you'll really hear that unlike other recorders ive used. maybe ill have to play with the mic sensitivity sometime, but I thought it was supposed to be auto
