Sony ICD-BX140

Medium from any angle

Perhaps the main advantage of the device is a fairly affordable cost. But it also has a downside - the model cannot surprise with unusual functions. Nevertheless, the Sony ICD-BX140 is a handy and reliable device that provides standard options, from activating voice recording to changing the sensitivity of the microphone (including external) to change the sound quality or turn off extraneous noise.

Don't get confused

Management is carried out using 7 front buttons, each of which is signed. There are also 3 side keys and an on/off switch for the recorder itself. These controls allow you to navigate through the settings menu, record, pause, rewind and control the MP3 player, the functionality of which is also provided in the voice recorder.

Completely independent device

A fairly good impression of the gadget spoils only one nuance - there is no way to connect it to a computer. A removable memory card is also not provided, which means that all records will remain on the internal drive, and over time they will be erased to be replaced with new ones. By the way, the built-in memory is 4 GB, which is far from a record figure. Well, at least there is a battery charge indicator, so you will not be left without a voice recorder, although this is far from a unique feature, but for this model it is at least some consolation.

A pretty good voice recorder for novice journalists and bloggers, suitable for recording your own thoughts and ideas.
