Customer Reviews What a Piece of CR......AP!  -- 2010-09-06I have a very expensive Cannon GL and it is great for staged video but I need a easy portable camera for quick video with the children. I had seen the FLIP at the store and decided to try it. What a joke....the quick start says it ships with a partial charge, well the first one didn't so I took it back and got a second...it didn't, so I got a third. It did start and I was alb eto set the menu. I then plugged it in to get it a full charge...and it never came back to life! took it back...4th would not start and 5th worked fine. Shot video with it and when I needed to charge it, plugged it into the computer and...it never worked again. Should not be this hard to charge or connect. DONT BUY THIS CAMERA! Why release products with such major flaws?????? -- 2010-09-03Very disappointed with this product - it worked for about 2 minutes out of the box then has failed to charge. On reading online this is a widespread problem and one that has NOT been fixed with this model. The documentation is equally pathetic - the general consensus on how to fix this revolves around taking it apart - removing the battery pack - plugging it all back together when it starts to charge and then rinse and repeat until you get lucky. Not something you should really have to do with a brand new piece of kit. Cisco should do better than this...... Fragile, repair service costs.  -- 2010-09-01I got a refurbished flip cam. the lens was defective. Per the seller's website, it wouldn't accept a return. I called tech support for Flip, said they would repair it for $70. I said it was under warranty. They told me to contact Amazon and the seller and return it. I emailed a private repair service, they said it wasn't worth their labor cost to fix it. In the end, I did email the seller and seller agreed to accept a return. The whole process with Flip was disheartening, and you can Google various complaints about them. Sucks -- 2010-09-01First time using the video camera, noticed the battery was already run down 1/4 of the way. Recorded maybe about 5 minutes of video and battery is basically dead already. Tried to re-charge, won't charge. Awesome. HD Mino 2nd Generation  -- 2010-08-23I like this!! Easy to use; Easy to Carry, Good quality shootings, and a good sound. Also, it looks good! I particularly like the ease of use while on the go-just point, shoot and move on!-no fumbling around trying to figure out features; it has good low lighting and really good day time video. I recommend it! Oh yeah! it's not bulky-it's almost "apple" like-it's really classy looking. Feels like I have something really special. |
