A voice activated recorder saves audio only when it hears people talk, then rests when the room is quiet. That means less silence to skip and more room left in memory.
Looking for the best voice activated recorder? Start with where you will use it. The VR-16 is our top-selling USB pick. The VR-500 power bank voice activated recorder sticks on by magnet. For listening on the go, choose a model with earphones, like the MV-7 or VR-120. See the chart below to compare.
