I’ve recently reviewed the new Flip Video Mino for TechRadar. It’s a pocket-sized VGA video camera designed for quick-and-dirty video capture and effortless YouTube uploads.
Technically, you can call the Flip Video Mino a camcorder. But its no-frills feature set and 640×480 resolution casts it as more of a ‘dumbcorder’. Imagine the power of a VGA webcam sellotaped to a 2GB memory card, all stuffed into the hollowed out shell of a Nokia N95.
So why would you want one? Because the Flip Video Mino is aimed squarely at a generation of video gawkers who like to share their life experience on YouTube, MySpace and Facebook. As result, the Flip Video Mino can’t be too pricey or too difficult to master. So it’s much like the previous Flip Video Ultra, which we praised for its “your-cat-could-use-it ease of operation”.
If you’re curious to read on, you can find the full Flip Video Mino review online at TechRadar.
