It does all that very well. As others have mentioned here, I bought this unit to record in digital format, to have a small unit, easy to use and high quality audio recording. If you are looking for more features, this is not the unit for you, but if you want long battery life with high quality audio in a small package, this is for you.
I'm now using Unit A2, and have returned Unit B1 for replacment. Unit B1 has now failed in the same manner. But I have no confidence.
Unit A1 was replaced promptly. I'm buying another, different, unit. While I like the operation, the size, the shape, etc., I don't like the fact that I've replaced it twice.
I figured wrong. Unit A1 failed and I mailed it for warranty replacment. Being addicted, I ordered another right away; figuring that it's an electronic device and [things] happen.
Unit B2 and probably Unit A2 can be emergency backups.
Its tiny speaker is good for speech but doesn't have much volume. I could write a long list of the things it doesn't do. It has high quality electret condensor microphone that seems to be very sensitive. It monitors what you say and there is a slight delay from the time you speak to the time you hear it in your earphone. It just seems to naturally fit in your hand for those quick notes of brilliance that hit you while driving down the road. It will drive you crazy.This recorder is not for everyone. It comes with a good earphone.
However, don't record with the earphone plugged in. If you believe in the 80/20 rule (80% of the work gets done by 20% of the functionality), then you'll go for this recorder. It really does slip in your pocket. For example, it doesn't have message folders, no date/time stamp, no automated voice activitation, etc. What it does do is provide one of the smallest, really useful notes recorders around. You really have to have a focus on its positive attributes, but if those are your hot buttons, you'll love it.
Small yet powerful. Battery life is good and is durable. This recorder has great sound and quality reproduction. Simple to use.
