Creative Vado is a pocket video cam that is around the size of a regular mobile phone. It weighs 84 g, and can shoot at 640 x 480 and 30 frames per second. The video cam has a solid build with dimensions, 100 x 55 x 16 mm. It also has low-light sensiti...
Bamboozled by buttons and dazzled by dials? The Vado is aimed at users for whom ‘point and shoot’ needs explanatory graphics and an 0845 helpline number. There are no complex options or choices – just hit Record to capture up to 2 hours...
Build quality is more plastic than fantastic. In fact, the Creative feels cheaper and weaker than most mobiles – and its smeary (but colourful) video is little better than a cutting-edge cameraphone. Audio is muffled and indistinct, and be warned, t...
A camcorder that costs less than a couple of Blu-ray discs should be a no-brainer, but even at this low price, the crazy-cool Vado feels a few pixels short of a memory card.Creative Vado is tagged with creative, camcorder and pocket-sized. Select a tag...

Clearly looking to cash in on the craze for the Flip in the US, Creative’s take on the pocket-size digital video camera is essentially a carbon copy of its equally low-cost counterpart. With a resolution of a mere 640 x 480, the Creative Vado won’t b...

It almost seems too easy. A good MPEG-4 camera, narrowly outperformed by the pricier Flip. The latest HD camcorders are fantastic pieces of kit, but overkill if you just want to capture video quickly on the move. For a lot less money, the Vado is one...

Theres a veritable glut of cheapo video cameras at the moment - last week we saw the Flip, now its Creatives Vado. At £79.99, its a pretty attractive deal. And pretty. Literally. It looks nice.
