Still too big
No HD uploading
Expensive

Doesn't compare well with its rivals
At £160
The Flip has lost its purpose of being somewhat. It's fine

For the most part, we were satisfied with the video and audio quality of footage captured by the Flip UltraHD--as long as we limited ourselves to the level of expectations one would typically have from a $200 camcorder. Higher-end, more-expensive camc...

No optical zoom; same image quality as before.
If a budget-priced handheld HD camcorder is what you are looking for, the Flip Video UltraHD is certainly worth consideration. The video quality wont decimate that of much more expensive cameras, but its still good for the category and very much work...

Abstract: Flip Video carved a niche for themselves with point-and-shoot camcorders, and it’s a niche which soon got crowded as rival firms offered their own entry-level devices. The launch of the Mino HD late last year kicked things into 720p high-definition, w...
Abstract: The Flip UltraHD (Specs, $199.99) (MSRP $199.99) provides the same easy user experience that is the standard of all Flip camcorders. Its lack of manual controls, menus, or special settings make it a very simple product to use and learn. The Flip UltraH...
The Flip UltraHD is an easy-to-use and very-portable camcorder that works well for casual video capturing by novice technology users. More experienced users, however, will likely find the camcorder’s high price tag, lack of features, and poor low-ligh...
Abstract: Pure Digital Technologies is one of those unlikely success stories that just seems to be too good to be true. They make those little Flip Video camcorders that rocketed from nowhere to being the number-one selling camcorder in the US ever since they became available in 1997...
