What's great about it:?Great compact camera, great video quality for this size and price, easy to use What's not so great:?None as of yet "I got this a few months ago to use to tape paintball games. I needed a small and relatively inexpensive camcorder, and this fit the bill. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Awesome quality video, very easy to use, easily portable - put it in your pocket and go What's not so great:?The screen is just a tad small "I received mine in the mail five minutes before I had to go to a performance, and I basically only had enough time to take it out of the box, put the included AA batteries in, and slip it in my pocket. Guess what?That's all you need to do. from Bestbuy.com Fun, easy to use, runs on AA batteries (and they last!) I am very pleased with this product and really impressed with the resolution of the videos. I would recommend it to anyone. from Buy.com When I decided that I wanted to buy a digital recorder, I had a much higher-priced, larger device in mind. After reading the reviews on the Flip and comparing the price to more complex devices, I decided to give this a shot. I am amazed at how easy it is to use (although, I must confess, some of my videos begin with me cursing at trying to get it started). from Buy.com ITS EXTREMELY EASY TO USE. I JUST PICKED IT UP AND STARTED MAKING MOVIES THAT EVERYORE LOVES. ITS EASY TO UPLOAD VIDEOS TO YOUTUBE. AND THE SOFTWARE IS EVEN GREATER FAST, EASY, AND RELIABLE. from Bestbuy.com Low price What's not so great:?Limited zoom but this is a perfect "everyday" camcorder "Go out and buy one of these TODAY!! I am capturing SO MANY of our kids' "precious moments" now. I just take a short video, plug it into my computer (not even any cables!!) upload to YouTube and I can cherish these great times forever. Plus relatives can go online and watch, too. from Bestbuy.com Pros: very small and lightweight. already took a bunch of videos and posted up on youtube. runs on 2 aa batteries. from Newegg.com Pros: It does exactly what it is supposed to do. Records good video and audio with no whistles and bells. I took it to Jamaica and recorded recipes from various restaurants and bars for a social network site. from Newegg.com Other Thoughts: Great for travelling light. Wife and I backpacked with no checked baggage in Europe and China. Took Flip plus Sony A300 SLR -- perfect combination for decent video and killer pictures. from Newegg.com Pros: Records decent quality video clips. Small and compact so its easy to carry around. from Newegg.com
