Similar in size and weight to a cell phone, the Pure Digital MinoHD camcorder records HD video at the incredible list price of $230. The MinoHD is Pure Digital's first 720p HD camcorder-all of their previous models have been standard-def. The MinoHD ...

Small, handy size ; High quality video output ; Very simple and easy to use

No mic or earphone jack ; Too-simple editing software ; Tough to shoot steady video consistently ; Poor automatic white balance ; No HD playback directly from camcorder

Overall, the MinoHD is an impressive offering for the very few bucks it may cost the consumer.

We're big fans of Flip Video's incredibly easy-to-use pocket-size video cameras, but it's been difficult to wholeheartedly recommend them given the superior video capabilities of today's point-and-shoot digicams. Flip's new MinoHD changes that. This ...

Super portable and spontaneous HD video in your pocket

Needs stabilization and HDMI port

Very good video quality, Thin, sleek design, Responsive touch-sensitive controls, Intuitive, streamlined software

Still no memory card slot or digital still capability, Tiny LCD screen, Composite video output

Overall, we were impressed with the Mino HD's smooth 720p video. It performed well in a wide range of lighting conditions, always delivering pleasant, lifelike colors and loud-enough sound. Only in fast-paced action sequences-an ice-skating rink, for ...

Pure Digital may have pioneered the concept of the YouTube camcorder with the original Flip, back in 2006, but it was Kodak that truly raised the bar in this space earlier this year, with its release of the Zi6. The long-standing still-camera ...

Records high-quality HD video. Compact. Double the storage of the original Flip Mino

Small screen. Memory isn't expandable

Pure Digital takes the next logical step, adding high-definition recording to its Flip Mino mini camcorder. While there are few physical changes, you do get more built-in storageand you'll pay a lot more.

We previously reviewed both the Flip Video Mino and Ultra and since that time the Mino has been part of my travel gear anytime I leave the house where I think a moment of video may be needed. Since it weighs practically nothing and you can record 60 ...
