Summary: Great Little Recorder
Comment: The Olympus Microcassette Recorder S711 is the perfect utensil for corporate meetings, fun stuff, and stuff you know you want to remember. At first, when searching I'd looked towards Sony for their microcassette recorders. Sony is also tiny, well made, and worth the price compared to the Olympus. But I wanted to test the Olympus out.
Pros
-Large, easy to use buttons. Looks SHARP in solid blue!
-Allows 2 type of speeds. A 60 minute tape becomes a 120, etc.
-From a name brand that you trust
-Cheap, but accurate
-3 tapes with 90 mins. can hold more than some digital recorders which top $50
Cons
-No tape counter
Overall, I rate the Olympus 4 stars. It isn't too big or small, and it is accurate. It allows you to record with microcassette tapes, and has been proven much better than a digital voice recorder. I'm glad that I own it, and I would like you to have it too.

Summary: GREAT!
Comment: This is my second recorder and recording and playback are far superior to my Sony recorder. The mic and speaker reproduce decently crisp recordings. For a low-end recorder, this is a great option for the money.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Memory Helper
Comment: I bought this to keep in my car so I wouldn't have to try and write everytime I need to remember something while I'm driving. Unfortunately it's cumbersome and not easy to use if you're driving. It's OK but I wouldn't buy it unless you're looking for something inexpensive and not to be used in the car. It's probably fine for classroom use but for driving you would need something different.

Summary: Good for voice note, not that good for music practice
Comment: So-so for me.
I would have given it 5 stars if I use it only for voice note. It does what it is supposed to, and it does it well.
However, it didn't work well for my daughter's violin lesson. The idea was she records herself and/or her teacher, and later she plays along with the recorded thing for practice.
The problem is, the recorded notes sound always a bit higher than originally played on the instrument. I guess the tape speed is faster when playing back than when recording, for some reason. Maybe you wouldn't notice at first, but as soon as you try to play along with the tape it becomes apparent.
Probably I was hoping too much for an inexpensive microcasette recorder, though. I wouldn't blame the manufacturer.
