    Zoom ZH1N Handy Portable Wireless Digital Audio Recorder w/Built in Microphone

    • Love these things
    • I am not a recording expert, or a taper of concerts - I am just a novice with a gopro camera who wants better audio than the gopro can provide...and this thing does it very, very well with minimal effort
    • Love this thing
    • Rubber-type buttons are recessed (which some may consider a good thing) and rather difficult to press, especially for someone with larger fingers
    • This thing is awesome
    • As far as value goes, it's hard to overstate how good this thing is for the money--and how super easy it is to use
    • This thing worked about twice out of the box before dying completely
    • This thing is great
    • I had this thing out of the box for less 5 minutes before the power switch fell right off
    • I really want to like this thing
    • I love this thing
    • I love this thing
    • As mentioned by many, many others: this thing feels CHEAP
    • Really love this thing, I use it for my youtube videos when I do them professionally
    • I just slap the thing down in a corner, ANY corner
    • That said, it's a minor inconvenience, and the most important thing is the audio quality, which for my purposes the Zoom H1 excels at.
    • One of the most important things in video is good audio and the Zoom H1 has taken mine to the next level
    • Now that’s a hard thing to articulate as everyone is different, but where the button should
    • The only thing I find annoying about the device is its appetite for batteries, but I believe recording with the highest possible bitrate all the time probably has something to do with that
    • this thing is excellent with field recording of audio
    • This thing is amazing, i love the fact that you can adjust the sensitivity of the microphone, and it only uses one double A battery , over all great product for entry level sound chasers
    • The only "bad" thing about it is that it comes with a micro SD card of only 2Gb
    • This thing is amazing
    • It is much smaller than I envisioned via pics, which is a good thing.
    • I love this thing!!
    • This thing is AMAZING
    • But it have one negative thing, when you will be shaking a litle bit trigers on the back will be making noise, tht you can hear in the recordind file
    • Although construction is not super solid, and wind plays havoc with the mics, this thing works!
    • This thing sounds amazing where ever you record, from practice room to auditorium
    • This thing is great.
    • This thing is great at recording sound.
    • A great little recorder, but it eats batteries, even when turned Off, not a good thing for a portable recorder.
    • This device jumped to the top of my favorite things to use list
    • Very light-weight (which again, some may consider a good thing), total-plastic feel
    • The knowledge that I could buy a plug-in mike and carry it around with me and just use my cell phone to accomplish the same thing takes a great deal away from this unit's $100 price tag.
    • How stupid this thing is
    • The battery door isn't connected unless closed, so it might be an easy thing to lose.
    • LOVE THIS THING WORKS GREAT FOR BAND PRACTICE AND EVEN LIVE SHOWS
    • Love this little thing
    • Sensitivity.(+)This thing is VERY sensitive
    • Rubber-type buttons are recessed (which some may consider a good thing) and rather difficult to press, especially for someone with larger fingers
    • This thing is amazing
    • I love this thing so much
    • WAV/MP3, manual level).The great thing I like about it is how compact it is
    • Very easy to use and learn!The only thing is the mic is so powerful that it picks up popping noise and outside wind noise too along with your recording
    • This little thing is awesome
    • This thing is simply amazing
    • Another thing I don't like is that the controls are VERY limited
    • I love this thing so much, I'd marry
    • only thing I don't like is the body quality
    • Equipment failure on a very expensive job is the most frustrating thing ever
    • Nifty little thing this recorder is and pretty reliable
    • This little thing is very handy and easy to use but for some reason mine drains every battery after a couple uses
    • the only good thing about this unit is that it is simple to use out of the box.by comparison, this father's day I replaced zoom with a tascam dr-07 mk 2, which for the same price is VASTLY superior.
    • The best thing is the sound quality
    • I can't say enough good things about it.
    • For what it cost me (on closeout sale) this thing is terrific
    • I record a few songs per week and this thing is amazing.
    • Only good thing was clearness of the sound
    • This thing is so versatile and well worth the money!
    • Even though it is more minimalistic than the other Zoom models, you can control the important things like bitrate, format (WAV and MP3), leveling, lo cut, input levels, and track marking
    • Heads-up...this thing is very sensitive to handling noise, so if you're going to use the mics, I recommend a shock mount.
    • The most important thing is audio
    • I love this thing
