Summary: bang for your buck, and excellent customer service
Comment: I have had a Flip Ultra for about 2 years and I have loved it from the first moment I turned it on. I don't have a fortune to spend on a big camcorder to record my kids, but this baby gets the job done. It's so nice to just plug it in to my computer, upload my videos, sort them, send them to grandparents, and even post them on facebook. My other favorite feature is the ability to pay $20 for an archived DVD made by Flip and sent to you.
On top of the great product, Flip customer service is wonderful. I'm definitely not technologically savvy, and was having issues due to the software not being updated. I called and a cs representative walked me through all of the steps and fixed the issue that had stumped both my husband and myself.
If you're wondering if it's worth it, it is!

Summary: Great little video camera
Comment: Great little video camera. Compact, easy to use. Zoom is not the most powerful. Easy to upload to your computer. Love that it comes with cables to watch it on your tv. Simple, very easy to use!

Summary: Doesn't Get Much Easier Than This
Comment: I had heard the Flip Camera had decent video quality (for the price) and was very easy to use, so I knew I wanted a Flip, just didn't know which one. I chose this one because it was the newest model that still used AA batteries. I liked the idea of using AA batteries, which I know is a turn-off for many people, for a variety of reasons. First of all, a "specialty" battery tends to lose its ability to hold a charge (hasn't that happened to one of your cell phones?) as it ages, which means you could lose out on taking some special videos if you're caught without enough juice to keep going. Other reviews rave about how tiny and slim the newest flip is (because it doesn't need to be fat enough to house AA batteries). Personally, I think this camera is very compact, while still having enough substance about it so you get the sense you're actually holding something. Smaller isn't always better in my opinion.....too easy to drop, lose, and often accompanied by limited functionality. In addition, if you're on your way to a big event and you realize your battery is dead, you simply stop at the drug store and pick some up. Furthermore, you can also use re-chargeable AA batteries (recommended) while keeping some spare regular AA batteries around in case your re-chargeable ones run out of juice. So even if you forget to re-charge your batteries, you always have the option of regular batteries. With the newest ultra slim model, when you're battery's dead, you need to charge.....no other options.

Summary: It is what it is!
Comment: I bought this camera because it was required for the graduate psychology program that I started this fall. Long story short, it is very difficult to get more than one person into a relatively mid-ranged shot. Getting two people into a close shot is impossible unless they are practically sitting in each others lap. Also, if you film in a room where there is a lot of sunlight, the video will come out very dark. The Sound quality is terrible. It has kind of an echo-like sound quality and sounds almost like an old school tape recorder. The playback options on the computer software and the camera are very limited. If you need this camera for school like I did, just borrow one from someone but definitely do not buy it. It costs entirely too much for what it is. If you're willing to spend a few bucks more you can go to Best Buy and get a much nicer digital video camera.

Summary: OK
Comment: This Flip Ultra is much better than the Mino, which was a big bust. The one glitch I find is in editing a film. Can't get it exactly the way I want. Otherwise, the Flip is fine.
