So I know it’s been a little while since we’ve updated the site or wrote a good review so I thought I would write up a quick Sony ICD-BX800 Review for you guys.
This looks like it was designed for the basic uses such as lectures, interviews etc… but I wouldn’t get my hopes up about doing too much (or any) music work with this thing as it’s fairly cheap (under $30!) and the mics just aren’t going to be that great.
Upon further inspection I think this recorder is primarily meant for taking notes to listen back to later… read-on to find out why.

It’s fairly well reviewed on places like Amazon.com however there is one obvious drawback to this recorder that would definitely keep me from purchasing.
I looked at over 30 reviews and of those over 25 were very positive, which sort of surprised me considering the fact that there is no USB port! Yep, you read that right. In order to get audio from this unit to your computer you have to stream it via the headphone jack as far as I can tell!
Of course the negative reviews on this product are all due to this fact. The thing is though, if you’re just looking for a great little note-taking device then it might be one of the best options out there.

People were very impressed with ease of use and thats one of the most important things when it comes to a recorder like this. If you’re going to use it to take notes on the fly then it should be quick and easy to use, otherwise you just won’t use it!
Basically the users of this recorder say that is sounds surprisingly good considering the price. It is very easy to power on and record something quickly. And the playback speaker does a great job of providing clarity when listening back to your memos etc…
The people who don’t like this recorder hate the fact that it doesn’t have a USB port (probably not enough research before buying) and some people have mentioned that the sound is not that great although they are in the minority compared to the other reviews.
Overall I would say that if you’re looking for a good memo recorder, it’s very easy to trust the Sony name and the other users reviews speak for themselves.
