Love this recorder

This is a sturdy little recorder with great audio playback. It’s so small you can take it anywhere. I take it on hikes to record my thoughts and it works wonderfully.

TX660 voice recorder how good? Too soon to say.
ICD-TX660 16 December 2024 by Lady in Green (United Kingdom)
I judge products on the totality of the item, including the user documentation. Too often, entirely satisfactory hardware is let down by the user documentation, as is the case here. I found the instruction sheet provided to be grossly inadequate and even the full manual of about 190 pages does not describe things well. So, my start with this item is only just beginning to make headway after several days and with two resorts so far to the support bot. I regret not buying a cheaper, larger, and more intuitive item, in fact I may send this one back to Amazon. Would I buy this item again? NO!

Essential Tool for Patient Advocacy
ICD-TX660//CE 20 December 2025 (Singapore) Verified Purchaser Verified
I bought this specifically to record my doctor’s appointments, and it has been a lifesaver. When you’re receiving a lot of medical information at once, it’s easy to forget the details. This device ensures I capture everything accurately. Why it’s perfect for the doctor's office: Total Discretion: It’s so small (about the size of a stick of gum) that it doesn't feel intrusive or intimidating when sitting on the exam table or clipped to a folder. One-Push Recording: You can start recording instantly with one button even if the device is off. This is great if the doctor walks in and starts talking immediately. Voice Clarity: The 'Clear Voice' settings make it easy to understand medical terms when playing back the recording later. Long Battery: I never have to worry about it dying mid-consultation.

Perfect for wedding videographers
ICDTX660 08 September 2025 by Camden (USA)
This device is a must for wedding videographers. I have been doing weddings for 6 years now, just started using this and it has been the best improvement to my audio game in years. If you are familiar with covering weddings you will know it is a nonstop fast-paced run and gun situation where every second countsHaving a device like this allows you to remain less obtrusive while being much more efficient and the audio(along with modern audio post editing) comes out just as high quality as standard prosumer lapel mics like the DR-10L in a practical use situation. I would have 10 of these if I could.

Descreet, & dependable and usual Sony quality.
ICD-TX660 21 November 2024 by JR61 (United Kingdom)
Had to purchase this, as I gave up with inferior, sub-£30 digital recorders that I purchased from online sellers. The Sony TX660 is not a budget recorder, due to it's premium price, but in very many cases with premium goods, you get what you pay for. I have purchased many USB digital recorders, which are very discreet, and can be used at functions such as weddings/marriage ceremonies etc. They provide basic quality sound of which some are better than others. These have disappeared from sale, to a greater extent, and I am not really surprised. The Sony TX660 has impressed with its excellent, clear, sound quality, which is adjustable, and can be tailored for many events like meetings, conferences, lectures, and the like. Voice quality that this thing picks up if worn as a pocket clip attached recorder is impressive. Once you have experimented with the various setting menus on the the OLED screen, and become more familiar with the small side buttons, which are small, but this is a small device, no wonder, you will not be disappointed with the sound results, once transferred to Laptop or PC. The Sony is a excellent piece of kit in a small, discreet, package, but at a price that reflects this.

Compact product which packs an awesome punch
ICD-TX660//CE 28 January 2023 by T2357s (Malaysia) Verified Purchaser Verified
I was initially skeptical about this recorder, as there was no micro SD car available, and there was no mic input jack for a lavalier microphone. But, due to inventory issues, I have no choice, and I needed a recorder urgently, so I bought it anyway. Best decision I made!! This recorder is extremely capable for its size. Recording quality matches the UX570 which I am already using. And given the small size and lightweight built of the recorder, there is no need for a mic! I just wear it closer to my mouth! Or closer to the mouth of the person who is speaking! It works better than connecting the UX570 to a lavalier mic! 16GB storage is more than sufficient, even though I record in the highest quality setting, which means a file size of 1GB every 1.5 hours or so. More storage than battery life, which is definitely more than sufficient!! Only drawback is, interface is a bit of a pain given its small size and limited buttons. Small drawback, but can be worked around by doing file management on a PC.
