The easy-to-read LCD display shows you at a glance what the status of your dictation is by displaying the time, battery level, minutes remaining and several other features. When the RCA RP5015 is in automatic voice activated-recording mode, the recorder will sense the sound a begin recording immediately, and to save on power, it will stop recording once the sound stops.

Two folders can hold up to 198 total messages, allowing you to categorize your recordings, and a handy date/time stamp helps you easily identify what date and time each recording was made.

2.0 out of 5 stars A step back from the RP5012, May 2, 2008

This review is from: RCA RP5015 Digital Voice Recorder (Office Product)

I'm an avid user of the RP5012 that was the precursor to this model.

RCA RP5012 16MB Digital Voice Recorder

I love the 5012, where the keys go, how it just works for short snippets. Then I decided to 'upgrade' to this model-5015. Big mistake.

1. The screen freezes intermittently. You think it's doing nothing, but it is, just not showing you what it's doing. Then you gotta reset.

2. If you swap batteries it'll not destroy your data (thank heavens) but you'll lose all your settings. Budget 20 clicks for setting the time again, turning off the tone, etc.

3. I've had it lose data one me on one occasion. Could never replicate what happened. I went to bed with 30 items, woke up to find it empty. Battery was fine, etc.

4. Towards the end of a battery cycle it'll stop recording a few seconds after I hit record. So there I think I'm recording stuff, and I'm talking to an inert box of plastic.

All this used to work in the previous model. How the heck did you manage to screw up so badly, RCA?! I loved that the 5012 was reliable. If it didn't have battery you knew, if it did then it did the job. This one keeps finding insidious ways to betray me.
