Creative Vado HD (3rd gen) Pro Reviews

Sort:

expertreviews‘s review Edit Like Unlike

The 3rd Gen Vado is a case of three steps forward, two steps back. The video and audio quality is improved and the microphone input is a great idea; however, the reduced storage capacity and touch sensitive controls are unwelcome changes.

The Vado HD 3rd Gen is about as small and light as pocket camcorders come, and is far more of a true pocketable mini camcorder than the Flip Ultra HD. Unfortunately, this has lead to sacrifices in storage capacity and optic quality, which can only reduce its appeal and weaken its position against smartphones and compact cameras.

Admittedly, the Vado HD is something of a ‘me too’ product with few features that are likely to worry any of its pocket camcorder rivals – although the motion detection option does have possibilities. Even so, it works well as a point-and-shoot device that allows you to quickly capture decent quality photos and video with minimal effort.

Creative's latest Vado HD makes some improvements over its predecessor, but not enough to make it stand out in the increasingly crowded pocket camcorder pack.

Creative Vado HD 3rd Gen is an impressive little bundle. It packs a surprising amount of functionality in something normally considered more of a toy than a proper camcorder. It gives you the option to trim down the videos, export them to your PC, email or upload them to sites like YouTube and Facebook. Impressively, it comes with a mini HDMI cable. The addition of an external mic jack (which also serves as the analogue TV out and headphone jack) and manual exposure settings make this a very functional little device indeed.

If you don’t intend to put your camcorder through rigorous extremes, the Creative Vado HD is probably the candybar camcorder to choose. In particular, we loved its exposure control settings, wide-angle lens and ability to cope low-light levels.

Though the Creative Vado HD 3rd Gen doesn't do quite enough to distinguish itself from the competition, it does offer some nice improvements over earlier Vado HD models that keep it relevant in the pocket camcorder space.

The third-generation Vado HD has the widest-angle lens of any HD pocket camcorder, as well as exposure controls, great low-light video quality, and a sub-$200 price.
