Icd-Ux570 Series Ux570 Digital Voice Recorder (Black)
Product Details
Web ID: 18279427One of the best
I have been using digital recorders since the Sony ICD-SX25 and the ICD-UX570 is definitely one of the best. I mostly use the recorders for outside nature sounds and the 570 is very impressive. I would like to request a few features, found on other models, that would make this recorder even better. Bring back the DPC function to include the pitch control. Make the easy search function controllable like on other models. I definitely prefer the multi folder menu as seen on the ICD-UX533 it’s much easier to navigate. Although the LED display is very clear and easy to read indoors it is unfortunately useless in sunlight, if a remedy for this is possible that would be great.Thank you for a great recorder and I am looking forward to the next model.

Hi Nature Dave, Awesome! We are so glad to hear that you are happy with your purchase! Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl
good quality and long battery life
I use it to record myself reading and it's great, I think sound quality is excellent for the price. I paired it with a lavalier mic and a pair of external headphones (both Sony too). Built in speakers are not the best quality, but it's a recorder so I didn't expect anything exceptional. When first bought I let the battery run out and then charged to the full and it has lasted for about a week with a 1-2 hrs a day recording time, but I think it could go longer, because I record a few sentences and then stop and listen and then again so I do a lot of button pressing.

Great device
the only issue is about the 'sound organiser 2', the menus are so tiny in 3840*2160 and I cannot see them.

Loses date and time constantly
If the device ever loses charge, the date & time changes to year 2041 and I no longer know the date and time of my recordings. Sick of resetting the time.

Easy to use and great quality recording
I purchased this to replace my ICD PX-333 which I have used for ten years. Obviously technology has improved over the years and I am very satisfied with the quality and features of the UX570. Having a built-in USB is a great feature and the fact that this is a rechargeable device will save me money on purchasing batteries,

Need a bit more time for full comment on UX579
I haven't really had a lot of chance to play with my new toy, so it is difficult to say at this tim point. The recorder arrived in a timely manner and in good shape. Thank you. I am pretty sure that I am going to lov this product going forward. Thanks

Great sound quality with a few drawbacks...
I bought it a month ago and love it to record my thoughts and lectures that I can review at a later time. The recordings are crisp and clear. The downside is the flimsy UBS port to transfer files and recharge. I'm still trying to figure out how to rename the files!

Small, light and well designed
I've used this for a month and I really like the design. Wonderfully bright AMOLED screen, the buttons and side controls are easy to use and the recording quality is good. The usb dongle closes off when retracted so dirt can't get in. The batter charges up quickly.The little pouch with a top opening is a nice little extra to protect the recorder from scratches. Where it falls short however is on the menu and software: The screen off time/sleep/power off are confusing and when active will cut out even in the middle of recording which is bad. But if you switch them off the the battery drains too fast even when on Hold. Ideally it should (or there should be an option to) go into sleep when hold is on. The back button is confusing and would be far better if the left button (currently redundant for controls) worked as 'back'. Delete file is too far down on the options and ideally should be a button on the front or at top of menu. At the bottom of the screen there's a '1' and 'NM' but it's not explained. Switching folders for record/playback is convoluted. Use left button for back and make the 'Back' button folders.
