| Product Description: | The R-07 packs mission-critical recording features into a stylish and ultra-portable device that goes anywhere life takes you. High-resolution audio, one-touch Scene memory, and Hybrid Limiting ensure great sounding recordings no matter what the situation. And wireless listening and remote control mean you can record with less wires in more places. Beyond the Smartphone While a smartphone can cover some basic recording situations, for reliable and professional results you really need a dedicated recorder. But a lot of recorders are bulky, complicated, and require an array of wires and adapters. The R-07 is simple and intuitive, goes anywhere, and provides mission-critical recording functions leaving your phone free to do what it does best. Beauty and Brains The R-07 looks great, sounds superb, and fits comfortably in your hand or your pocket. It's easy to use yet provides truly professional results with one-touch recording setup. Its next-generation Bluetooth capabilities mean you can control, monitor and listen back wirelessly using supported smartphones, smartwatches and Bluetooth speakers. It comes in three stylish colors and runs on two AA batteries or USB bus power. Set the Scene A recorder as compact and go-anywhere as the R-07 could end up in a lot of different recording situations. Whether it's on-location interviews, on-the-road demos, classrooms, boardrooms, field recording, or just about anything else you can imagine, the R-07 can automatically apply the ideal settings. When you select a Scene, the sample rate, record mode, limiter, low cut, and input level instantly adjust to their optimal settings. And you can alter any of the settings and save them for next time, so you'll never miss that magic moment. Designed for a Wireless World The R-07 uses the latest Bluetooth technology with Qualcomm aptX for enhanced streaming performance. Remote control from your smartphone or from supported smartwatches. Manage recordings and ensure what's being recorded is exactly what you want, even while the R-07 is in its prime recording location, and out of reach. Listen on wireless headphones or Bluetooth speakers all while cutting cable clutter and staying out of the way of your recording subjects. Safe and Sound With Dual Recording and Hybrid Limiting, you'll never ruin a vital recording due to overload or clipping. And you won't have to worry about artifacts from aggressive limiting either. The R-07 can make two simultaneous recordings one at full level and another at a lower level with increased headroom. If there's unexpected clipping in the main recording, you can replace that section with a portion of the lower-level backup recording. Hybrid Limiting can even handle this automatically, so you get all the safety of limiting with none of the downsides. |

definitely a higher audio quality than a smartphone would be able to do
good quality is subjective.
Not really. 44.1khz vs 192khz is science. But I get your point. I like how 12 bit sampling sounds

Recording sounds is a science in its own right.
True, different class of device, but we're only talking $25 for a serious upgrade.

Flatter 20-20khz mic response without the rolloff of the iPhone mic, stereo Mic vs mono, hires 96khz 24-bit recordings (vs 48khz 16-bit), 15 hour non-stop recordings, better mics likely handling higher dB sounds without distortion and less noise, etc.
Ie. It records better sounds with less distortion and noise than that lame iPhone!
...
That said, iPhones have never been known for High Quality audio mics.
Heck, even my old LG G6 has higher quality mics with a 129dB spl max, can do wav/flac 192Khz 24-bit recordings.

Ie. A handful of phones do far better than iPhones today, and dedicated audio recorders do even better.
...
Xlr only needed if you're going to spend money on high quality external mics for recording. Ie. You will spend more money on the mic than this recorder.
At that point, might as well start off with the latest zoom recorders as the baseline at several hundred, then sky is the limit.

Ie. If you're going to use an external mic that costs money, no point skimping on a cheap recorder that won't get you the best sound quality recording out of that mic.
