Low-level record is used to record the session even the object is not recognized by the QTP.

Normal Level Is Object Context Level where QTP recognize object with Physical Description Of only interacted object.

Low-Level Recording—enables you to record on any object in your application, whether or not QuickTest recognizes the specific object or the specific operation. This mode records at the object level and records all run-time objects as Window or WinObject test objects.

You can also use low-level recording if the exact coordinates of the object are important for your test or component.
