I used the Flip UltrHD Camcorder first to film events at my niece's 2nd Bday party. I loved the ability to take short clips with just the push of a button. Later, after having installed the software on my PC, I was able to view the clips, delete the ones I didn't want, and turn all the small clips into one movie. Very easy to use, so would not hesitate to recommend it for non-technical friends and relatives. The beauty of the Flip might also be a limitation for some...there are not many settings to choose from. But for web, family clips, documentation, just ... Read Full Story

Overall, this gadget is very good and serves its purpose. The negative reviews published here in Amazon about this camcorder are mostly true but tolerable IMHO. I also ordered the charger, the Lowepro case and a mini tripod. One common complain about the Flip HD is that its rechargeable battery heats up during charging. No argument, it really does.

I experienced some charging problems. Needed to play with the USB connector to enable it to charge correctly. It is HD as advertised but I didn't get a jolt of WOW or anything. Seems to be like any other Camera. At $200, it's too expensive to be a throw-away device but I can't recommend it over any other digital camera. The plastic has a cheap feel to it. Seems troublesome to post the videos onto the internet. Avoid this camera is my advice.Get more detail about Flip UltraHD Camcorder, 120 Minutes (Black). Read Full Story

Bought the Flip Ultra HD after doing a lot of research on various portable camcorders. The thing, which I was looking for was portability, ease of use for my wife to use it and straight forward operation. I found everything as mentioned above but the battery charging. As read in other reviews, while putting the Flip to charge through the USB, after a couple of hours I see a message saying that its superhot and then it pauses charging. Opened a ticket with Flip support and they provided a series to steps to follow and I did that. But the result the same. Waiting ... Read Full Story
