Graham F. –
Sony has given its ICD-TX800 the “ultra-compact” attribute. In fact, the device and the individual parts of this recorder are very compact. So far I have not known about the dictation machines that come as a whole. Sony turned this principle upside down and separated the recording and operating units. In fact, one could do without a control unit, since the recording functions of the voice recorder can also be controlled via an application from an Android smartphone. In this case, the devices are connected via Bluetooth. Control via the app works without any problems. But I would like to deal with the actual dictation machine here.
In addition to the two parts of the recorder, Sony also supplies a charging cable (USB) and an inexpensive set of in-ear headphones. The battery of the collection unit can be charged via the charging cable. The remote control is powered by a CR2032 button cell battery. Unfortunately, I can’t understand why Sony did it without a battery in the remote.
