Customer Review: Awesome gadget!
Summary: 5 Stars
My brother is a soldier in Afghanistan, his wife is alone here in the States. I am always looking out for ways I can make their experience better, so for Christmas I got them each one of these cool, easy-to-use cameras so they can make each other little update videos and say "I love you" in a much more personal way. Boy did I hit the jackpot, my sister-in-law was so happy with this little camera and said she figured out how to use it and send the videos right away even though she considers herself a non-techy kinda gal. She's also said it's so small that she just carries it around everywhere and at anytime she can tape her daughters or little scenes of home to send over to Ryan in the Middle East. Pretty cool, everyone should get one!Customer Review: Handy little cam
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought a couple of these as a gifts for family members so I've had the chance to play with it some. It's great in that it's very simple to use. Although I'm no expert at image quality, playback looks good. Sound is decent. If you're looking for a really simple video recording device, this is about as simple as it gets. The video quality is definitely better than the video recording capabilities on my digital camera, but the zoom is pretty limited, so your viewing area is limited as well. Overall I gave it five-stars because it does well at serving it's purpose: being easily available for short, spur-of-the-moment, decent quality video recordings. I would def recommend getting the USB extension cable.Customer Review: Great gift for new parents!

We have a 5 month old son and got the flip video as a baby gift. We had been debating about buying one of the more expensive camcorders and did alot of research, but were concerned that we'd spend all that money and never use it. We LOVE the flip and use it all the time. It's super light, simple to use, sticks easily in a diaper bag, and turns on so quick we never miss any moments. Plus, all you have to do to get the video onto your computer is click one button to open up the USB port connector and stick it into your USB port. The software automatically runs and you can either upload the video to a site, email it to your friends or save it to your computer. I am a HUGE fan and highly recommend it!Customer Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been playing with this thing for a couple of weeks now. The quality of the videos from such a small compact unit is truly amazing. And the simplicity and ease of use are also very nice. The technology involved boggles my mind. It is very easy and fun to create short videos to send by email. And to get 60 minutes of recording from this little unit is also astounding. The only problem I have had was that initially I had to push the record button a few times to get it to start or stop. This seems to be working better now. Perhaps it was the update that they sent. All in all, howeveer, I am very satisfied and happy with it. I also was fortunate to get it when it was only 149.95 with free shipping.Customer Review: Fabulous with a Mac
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this vidcam with a great deal of apprehension because I'm a Mac user. However, as I'm about to travel and needed something light and uncamera looking, I thought I'd try the Flip cam. It came, turned on, shot vid easily. Then, the acid test. Plugged the Flip into the Mac, software was installed, no problem. Smooth sailing. Video and sound using VLC and QuickTime. In fact, QT plays the vids better than VLC. The only thing I don't care for is the average quality facial detail on vids. The manufacturers could fine tune the camera's ability to capture detail, and that would make it superb. It would be nice to have a user-changeable rechargeable battery--in addition to the regular ones.
