Talking Tile -Black

Separate record/play switch was perfect.My daughter wanted my lullaby when she's at her mother's, but they kept accidently setting other audio buttons to record instead of play when it was the same switch as the power. This button was perfect to have it separate, i even used my Dremel to shave the record switch down so they dont use it accidentally.

This has a much better sound than I expected. I am using it in part of an art project and have recorded my own live music on it. 80 seconds is not enough for a whole song. But it is enough for a decent clip. I need to set it back a bit or it has too much volume, but it is a surprisingly good sound for what it is. I’ll attack one to each side of my art piece for people to connect different moods of music to the art. I highly recommend it. Just make sure you are getting the 80 second version not the 20 or 30 second one. Once you’ve recorded, you can record over it, but it does not hold more than one recorded piece.

This works great!

I am using this in my classroom for my letter sound picture chant. I recorded myself saying it. I teach reading intervention. Now I can play the recording of me that will be the lead. I will still say it along with it, but it really simplifies the proccess. My curriculum has a very specific chant. I can't just use YouTube. I like that this can sit by my small table and I just click it (don't need to search for a link on my computer, sign in to my computer, etc.) I am a fan. My only regret is not buying one sooner.Update:unfortunately it only lasted one school year due to battery pack corrosion.

I purchased this device to help with memorization and reminders, but I am extremely disappointed with both the build quality and the recording performance.1. Subpar Audio Quality and Low VolumeThe sound quality is very poor, regardless of how you record the message. Whether using the built-in microphone or the 3.5mm input for an external source, the output lacks clarity. Furthermore, the volume level is shockingly low. If you are more than two feet away, it is nearly impossible to hear the playback, and you essentially have to hold the device right next to your ear to understand what is being said. It is hard to feel encouraged to use this for study or reminders when the playback is this weak and distorted.2. Received a Used/Scratched UnitWhen I opened the package, I noticed visible scratches on the top surface. I soon realized why: the device’s controls and recording mechanism are on the underside, forcing you to flip the unit over to interact with it. If placed on any surface that isn't perfectly soft, the top will inevitably get scratched. I was sent a previously used item, even though I paid for a new one. Amazon needs to do better at ensuring products aren't being recycled as "new" when they clearly show signs of wear.If a product is used, it should be clearly marked as such, especially when it arrives with pre-existing damage. This has been a recurring frustration with recent orders, and I cannot recommend this item.

This was great to use for my kid that gets scared at night. We put our picture in their and recorded a quick message to assure her she is safe. Only issues were it was hard to open the clear plastic cover to insert the picture, and it is very loud. There was no way to turn down the volume

I bought it for a medical use for a loved one and it works out well battery still lasts. We haven’t had to use it too much but it’s there just in case.

Sound quality is good, easy to record but does not work well for training dogs. If you push down the button and let go right away it works perfectly, but if you are a puppy and push down on it and keep your paw on it, it does not play the recording. You have to push them let go for the recording to work. For people, works great. For dogs, not so much.

Bought this for a gift for a friend, and they loved it. The cover is transparent removable, so I was able to insert a personalized image very easily. Construction is solid,speaker is clear and a good volume, but obviously lacks bass seeing as it’s very small. Audio capture is a bit tinny, but it gives you an 8th inch option to input audio directly from a source of your choosing, so you are able to improve the audio quality if that’s required. Overall, very happy with the purchase.

Calidad y precio estupendo

Niveau son c’est pas le top mais c’est un excellent rapport qualité / prix par rapport à mes attentes et l’utilisation que je veux en faire.Très content du produit

Used in a Heritage museum to support visitors with poor eyesight access some of our information signs. Volume is fine for our application. The 80 seconds recording time is perfect, any longer and we have found people wander off! We have put an extra securing point at the bottom for added security. We use Audacity to edit the tracks, it’s a free download audio mixer used in schools. The voice we use is from the read aloud feature in MS Word.

the product that I received could record music, but did not play back, so could not be used. I sent it back because this product is broken. Then I bought another product from the same company - also broken (different problem though).
