Card or wearable: which fits how you work?
A card recorder belongs with the phone or on the meeting table. A wearable belongs on you, which makes it easier to reach during a walk or an unscheduled conversation. These positions produce different audio conditions. Choose the capture situation first and the product second.
Which should you buy?
Buy Note Pro if calls and fixed-position recording dominate. Buy NotePin S if attachment and quick physical access are the main benefit. Neither device makes recording permission automatic, and a wearable should not be assumed to capture phone audio that never leaves an earpiece.
