From the above flip video comparison, we would like to conclude the following:

Flip Mino HD VS Flip Ultra HD
If size is not a big issue for you, Flip Ultra HD would be the best choice with the best price/performance ratio. It has wider angle lens than Flip Mino HD, and based on our tests, it also has better sound quality than Flip Mino HD.

If you prefer the smallest size and good video quality and if 30 more dollars for the same memory is no big deal to you, you can pick Flip Mino HD.

Flip Mino VS Flip Ultra
If you have a very limited budget and if the size and angle of lens is not issue to you, Flip Ultra would be a good choice because it has longer recording time, bigger memory, higher LCD screen resolution and more colors to choose from.

If you have a very limited budget and if you prefer a smaller size and wider angle lens, you can pick Flip Mino.
