1.0 out of 5 stars For recording super loud people only, October 22, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oregon Scientific VR-399 Digital Voice Recorder with PC Link (Office Product)
I got the recorder from J&R through Amazon yesterday. The quality of the recording is unacceptable. During conference recording, I cannot even hear what each person was talking about, even though all people were talking normally within a few feet from the recorder (with MIC sensitivity set to high).

The battery indicator shows that only half of it power is left after one day's use.

I have just returned it today. I have to pay the shipping both ways. J&R consider my return as a "Return of Choice", even though I told them that it is in fact a defective item (the noise made by the recorder itself is so loud that you can hardly hear the people's talking). Not recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money, November 15, 2005
This review is from: Oregon Scientific VR-399 Digital Voice Recorder with PC Link (Office Product)
I bought this with the idea of having a portable reminder list. It is useless because it absolutely eats batteries. The instructions say to remove the batteries if you are not going to be using it for a week. This is because two AAA batteries only last about a week. I would carry it in my purse and everytime I reached for it--the batteries were dead.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good features, acceptable sound quality..., October 24, 2005
By 
This review is from: Oregon Scientific VR-399 Digital Voice Recorder with PC Link (Office Product)
I bought this a couple days ago. It's small,convenient and has a large range of volume.
The only problem is its sound quality. I used it to record myself playing Harmonica. It doesn't sound real. I tried with different angles, but the sound remains too sharp.
Overall, it's too cheap to complain. It does worth the price.
If you're poor as I am, this may be your choice. If you want good sound quality, buy a more expensive one.
