pasumark 51 Report post Posted May 16, 2012 Hai Friends, My mother requires a phone, which she uses mainly as a voice recorder other than for voice calls. She used to go to hear some religious speeches and records them using the voice recorder. The voice recording capacity should be for more than 3 hours continuous and the phone should be able to support 8 gb card, so that she can have many recordings like that. The recordings also needs to transferred to PC for storage and hearing in PC also. She also hears the speech while in home using the phone's speaker. So a phone with multiple speakers is preferred. No other features are used by my mother. She was already having Nokia X2 http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_x2-3304.php . The only problem in this is it allows only 1 hour of continuous voice recording. Now she has lost this phone. So I need to buy another one. So please suggest some suitable phone please. No touch screens please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pasumark 51 Report post Posted May 16, 2012 ^^^ The only problem with C5 is just one speaker phone. So audio output is not loud in speaker phone. Nokia X2 gave tremendous volume through speaker phones Then C2-3 is touch phone. So I avoided it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pasumark 51 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 Nokia X2 and X2-02 suit very aptly to my mother's requirement except that it only voice records to a maximum of 1 hour. Even though there is plenty of space in SD card and the recording stores in SD card only. Is there any other application for Symbian S40 which allows unlimited voice recording? For S60 there are many Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted May 17, 2012 You can consider buying a dedicated voice recorder from good brand. I have heard that some of them have more than 1,000 Hour recording capacity. That's an option if you don't find any appropriate phone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) ^^^^^^ Sorry my friend... OP needs the phone that support 8GB (memory) CARD... So I think her old phone X2 is better than iPhone here Jokes apart, I too think he has to look for some smartphones for the requirements like E5 (for 3+ hour audio recording), imho...

pasumark 51 Report post Posted May 20, 2012 Does any android phone have 2 speakers for high volume in speaker phone? I hope in android u will have application for unlimited recording Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pasumark 51 Report post Posted June 7, 2012 Nokia X2-02 fulfills all the requirements. It has a very loud speaker. It also has a FM transmitter. Voice Recording when stored in SD card, it shows continuous 18 hour recording. Price also low at Rs.3k Battery is good. It is dual sim phone (but no use for my mother) She is very happy with X2-02 Thanks guys for all your suggestion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
