132G (9800 Hour) Voice Activated Recorder – Elasound Voice Recorder with AI-Intelligent Triple Noise Reduction, Portable Audio Recorder for Work, Lectures, Meetings【100H Continuous Recording Device】

Great for everyday use
This voice recorder definitely comes in handy and it’s smaller and more portable than the devices that we used to use back in the day, with the added benefit of not needing to purchase anything extra to be able to use it.With 2,000 hours of available recording time, this little bugger stores quite a bit of information, perfect for the college student that wants to record all of your professor’s lectures for a semester or the business professional that wants to keep minutes for a work meeting. The device will even work well for those wanting to do a little spying and/or recording of phone conversations. (Due to it’s size and an internal magnet, it can be attached to something metal and small enough to be inconspicuous.)Using the device is relatively simple as well: You charge the device and then slide the button to the “on” mode. That’s (mostly) it! Charging the device is simple, as it uses a USB connection, meaning it’s rechargeable/doesn’t require batteries, which is another plus; and you can achieve a full charge in a couple of hours. For playback, you have the option of downloading the recorded wav files to a computer or you can also listen to them on the included headset. (You can also delete files using your computer and/or headset, too.) This recorder also has a “reset” button, which can be activated by using a paper clip.When you initially set up the device on a computer, you set the device to how you want to use it (more on that in a minute). You can also set a date and time stamp.Probably the that makes this device stand out is the option to set it to activate when it hears a sound, (cutting down on “dead air” space) or you can set it to record continuously. Either way, your recording will come out clear and the volume on the headphones can be adjusted to reflect how loud or soft the recording is.Not that many people would likely use this feature, since most of us likely have cellphones; but, the booklet also mentions the ability to use this device as an MP3 player. That might come in handy if you don’t have/want to use your phone or as a much less expensive alternative, especially for little kids to use. (The metal case looks like it could take a bit of abuse.)Overall, this is a solid investment. It’s small and portable (see pics), it comes with headphones, adapters, charging cable, and a carry case. (Basically everything that you need to be able to use the device…minus a computer if you choose to store your info that way.) It’s also magnetic, so you can (covertly or otherwise) stick wherever there’s metal. In addition to this being handy, the option to be able to utilize the device in “voice activated” mode is a game changer! Try it today!

Excellent product, perfect for recording oral histories, a bargain at the price
A TOTAL BARGAIN – Excellent product, very sensitive and easy to use. Ignore the picture of the smartphone in the advertising graphics – it stands and functions 100% by itself for recording. It acts and functions like a flashdrive that records sound. For our purposes, it had an added advantage – you really need a computer to erase recordings, you can’t easily accidentally erase anything. We used ours to get an oral history of her childhood from my aged mother in law. We were afraid we would accidentally lose something if we purchased on of the complicated alternatives, that all had tiny buttons and confusing displays. Its auto record mode shuts on and off automatically, recordings are time-stamped, and you can easily bring them onto your computer for editing with the included USB C cable. It’s very small and unintrusive, excellent for our mission. It has a magnetic base, and can be stuck on any steel surface if you wanted to use it as a sound security monitor. There is an earphone/earplug interface, and earplugs with an inline remote control is included, but it is best accessed by a laptop or desktop, that sees it as a USB flash drive.

Small and good sound, not right for my purposes
I don’t have consistent access to a computer and I didn’t figure out w way to get recordings off of this with a Chromebook or a way to get them to a phone. Listening to the recordings off the device is not intuitive and not functional for me with the way you must switch cables and dongles to listen off the device. It keeps turning off when paused and you can’t tell where you were or which recording you’re listening to.If you’re only looking to record and then transfer to another device for listening, the sound quality was really good and it’s a simple switch of the slider to start recording. Especially if you want something small and stealth.

I am seriously impressed with this recorder! The massive 9800-hour storage capacity is beyond convenient—I never have to worry about running out of space. The AI triple noise cancellation is no gimmick; it delivers incredibly clear audio, even in noisy environments. Whether I’m recording meetings, interviews, or lectures, the quality is consistently excellent.The one-touch recording and voice activation features make it super easy to use on the go. I also love the USB-C connectivity for fast file transfers to my laptop and phone. The included accessories like the mic, headphones, and OTG cables are a fantastic bonus.Battery life is a game changer—100 hours of recording on a full charge is impressive, and the fact that it saves your recordings automatically when low on power is a thoughtful touch.Finally, the carabiner design is really clever—I can clip it to my bag or keys and carry it around effortlessly.

This voice recorder is a valuable tool during business meetings. I am able to record the entire meeting and then play back and ensure accuracy of my notes. I could record a years worth of meetings in this device. I took it to a sales conference and set it to record. I now have the entire seminar at my disposal. Very useful.
