Digital camera reviews of Flip Video Camcorder: 60-Minutes (Black)
Digital camera Review: FLIP gets the DTG BEST AWARD
Summary: 5 Stars
We had a great time with the little Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder -- and for a low-cost, MPEG powerhouse, this is the one to get! For action use like surfing or skateboarding, its ease of use and quality capture is unequalled! Mac users can view clips in QuickTime Player (Pro). Or import the clips into iDVD. Edit and burn DVDs with full iDVD functionality.
This camera beat two others in the hand-held, pocket sized video camera category. It worked immediately with computers without software or even reading any instructions. It works exactly as you would expect as opposed to many of those with cryptic, non-intelligent user interface and controls. NO, it is NOT a network broadcast camera, so don't expect NTSA quality. YES it does produce surprisingly good image and sound -- and it's PERFECT for YouTube and other video blogging purposes.
And, if you take a spill and land on it when you hit the pavement, it's cheap enough to toss in the trash and pick up another one!
When you buy -- buy TWO !
Digital camera Review: FLIP, a FLOP
Summary: 1 Stars
I returned my first FLIP for a malfunction...AMAZON was wonderful...received a replacement with ease, but it also did not work properly. Now returned for a refund. Only good thing was great handling by AMAZON. I loved the FLIP, but the quality is lackingDigital camera Review: Fantastic!

I accidently came across this camera while searching for something else online. I was so impressed with the reviews I decided to purchase one. I wanted something compact, easy to use, and with quality video. The Flip Video delivers! It has been one of the best purchases I have made. It's so convenient and accessible. I took it on a recent trip and came back with some great video to share. I only wish it were readily available at major retailer's. It would certainly sell! I've shared it with many of my friends. I'm even thinking about purchasing some for Christmas!Digital camera Review: Flip Cameras are TERRIBLE
Summary: 1 Stars
My daughter recieved her Flip Mino less than a year ago as a gift from her boyfriend. She took it with her on her 2 week exchange trip to England. She had been looking forward to this trip for a year. Her best friend took the stills, she was taking the video. During the trip the camera stopped working and wouldn't turn on. Nothing she could do while she was there.
When she got back we called Flip, it was under warranty. they had us try resetting and then plugging it into the computer overnight. When none of that worked they accessed the camera remotely and determined that it had a defective battery. So it needed to be sent back (at my expense) I sent it priority mail on a Saturday, it was in their hands that Monday morning.
It took them all week to actually post that they received it. Every time I called they had no answers as to where the camera was or what was happening with it. Since it was a special order design they were supposed to call to confirm the design and order the new one. They never did. After 2 weeks of and repeatedly calling with increasing frustration and my obvious annoyance with them, they ordered a replacement and said they would escalate the order and priority ship it next day air. They said 24-48 hours to process. Well it's now 3 days and they issued a shipping label and it's not in the hands of UPS, so technically not shipped yet and it's listed as Ground!!!!!
We also just received an email that video retrieval was unsuccessful. It was a battery failure, they said they could retrieve the video. I think they lost the camera!!!
My daughter just had a competition that we didn't have the camera for and we are leaving for another and we still don't have it. That's 2 competitions we are missing being able to tape.
I also have no faith in the camera's reliability. I have no faith in Cisco, they lie, they don't do what they say they'll do and they need to work on their customer service....its
2 weeks and still don't have the replacement and still have not received a phone call back.
Digital camera Review: Flip Top Video
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought two 60 minute Flip Top Videos for my grandchildren for Christmas(9 years old and 12 years old). They are thrilled and use them night & day making up their own little movies and programs. After two weeks one of the Flip Tops started deleting everything and showing only 35 seconds available. Although it is a wonderful concept and one is still working, I am very disappointed to have spent that much money only to have it breakdown in two weeks time. My granddaughter is also very disappointed.
