Manufacturer's Description
It’s the Camcorder, Uncomplicated
The Flip Ultra camcorder makes it easier than ever to shoot and share video. Ultra features Flip Video’s signature shoot-and-share simplicity: just power on and press record to start capturing high-quality video in seconds.
Ultra-Spontaneous, Ultra-Fun
With 120 minutes of record time, you’ll never miss another minute again. And because it’s super-portable, Ultra lets you capture spontaneous video anytime, anywhere. Whether it’s a busy evening at your kids’ soccer match; a weekend camping trip; or simply an unplanned, everyday event, your Ultra will let you capture the moment. So you never have to say, "You should have been there."
Incredible Quality
While it may be small, Flip Ultra packs a big punch. Ultra produces video that rivals that of far more expensive camcorders. Its 4 GB of built-in memory lets you capture 120 minutes of crystal-clear video, even in low-light situations. Premier AAC audio compression means your videos will sound crisper than ever, too. The included connector cable makes it incredibly easy to watch your videos on your TV.
Pre-Installed FlipShare Software
Ultra comes equipped with FlipShare, Flip Video’s video-sharing solution. FlipShare launches instantly the first time you connect to your computer. Featuring an intuitive drag-and-drop interface that’s as easy to use as the camcorder itself, FlipShare gives you access to all of the following features:
Save and Organise: Watch your videos on your computer whenever you want, create your own folders to organize your videos, or easily tag and file them with the automatic date-stamp system.
Publish Online: Upload your videos instantly to YouTube, MySpace and many other websites, all with the click of a button. It’s never been this easy to share your videos online.
Email Videos: Send your videos privately, and select from a wide assortment of included greeting cards to personalise your message. In fact, Flip will let you email a link to your video (rather than a big file) to your family and friends, making it even easier to share your video.
Edit and Create Movies: Edit individual clips and create custom movies--complete with your favorite music. FlipShare even lets you capture snapshots (still images) from your videos.

Bought this for relatives birthday. Read quite a few bad reviews and to be honest, don't know what they were using but this little gadget is amazing!!
Alright, if you're a budding movie producer and want video footage that is second to none then this is probably not for you, you'll need your normal camcorder BUT to pop this in your pocket when you're out and about to catch those moments you normally wouldn't have a camcorder on you it's brilliant. Good price, quality fine for what it's use was intended for and think everyone should have one!! My relative takes it everywhere now....going to order one for myself

I bought this as a present for my mother, who is no PC expert - and as such, it had to be easy to use. And it is! Absolutely brilliant design, it's really as simple as pressing a button to start and again to stop. And getting it onto the PC (and then onto YouTube etc.) is made completely easy too, with just about everything available as a one-(or two!)-click function. We got to grips with it immediately, no fuss as all, and Mum is now happily using it all the time on holidays, etc. - and it just slips into her handbag, it's so small.
I was worried that such a portable, 'user-friendly' device might have scrimped on video / audio quality, but I have to say that it's really impressive on both fronts, given the size and price. The built in microphone pics up sound well in both small room and concert-type settings - we're more than happy with the results we've got.
Brilliant piece of kit for beginners or enthusiasts who want quality and portability in one device.

It was great one minute and then stopped working the next. I changed the batteries but it is dead. A waste of money.
