Great bit of kit-Very easy to use-You can send the videos directly by e mail although this takes about 5 Mins.per 1 Min of Footage.
The only thing that I don't like is that there is no Image Stabiliser
so you need a very steady hand or you can buy a Tripod.Great pics and sound though.

For me the Mini is great but I would only get it if you need a very slimline camera (if you have small pockets, carry a handbag etc)

I prefer the Flip Ultra HD, chunkier but easier to keep steady plus has more flexible battery options (takes AA) if you are away from power.

I've compared the range.
