20 Best Dual Dash Cam Under $100 (2023 Updated)

I bought the Vantrue for my Uber car based on the advice of many internet reviews. It’s a good item which delivers good clear fromt facing “dash cam” footage and very clear interior shots even under IR lights.

The only problem is positioning it so the interior doesn’t feature the back of the rearview mirror or a big close up of the driver’s head. You WILL need to experiment with the positioning of it to get it right.

As an Uber driver, I really want the interior cam as swcurity so i turn it off between rides. This can slowly move the position of the camera up or down so be aware of that. Apart from that. great value for money and even better with the SIM upgrade to 256.

This is a great investment. I work for a ride share company and it gives me and my passengers a sense of safety knowing everything inside and out is being recorded including sound. I like that you can turn off interior camera and or sound for your more private moments that you don’t need recorded.

I still can’t figure out the parking mode but I’m working on it. Overall I recommend this product to anyone looking for a quality dash cam.

I cannot express to you how disappointed I am with the van true N2 pro absolutely ridiculous I’ve had two of them one of them lasted a year the other one brand new out of the box didn’t work it had lines on the screen it was blurry and the screen was purple right out of the box.

Absolutely do not recommend this product at all nor would I ever purchase one again I don’t care how cheap it is.

As a first time dash cam user, extensive searching was done for a budget, value rated, quality dash cam. I found myself lost in a maze and then found Black Box My Car (BBMC) videos on You Tube. Became attracted to the Viofo A129 Duo Plus features / pricing, then purchased based on collective features including the unusual windshield fitting contour.

Upon receipt came unboxing, learning and practicing operational controls, then installation. Quick recap of the experience: 1) Boxing/ packaging. Viofo outdid themselves on packaging. Impressive professional grade quality materials.

A small item but certainly a preliminary confidence builder for a budget priced product. 2) Camera operation/ controls: The A129 has a lot of features that are accessible thru the menu set up. Once one learns menu access, up and down controls, selecting feature options is easy.

Many of these features have multiple choices and some include an “off” option which allows limiting (if desired) certain recorded information. The purchase BBMC price included the GPS device which was not initially expected.

3) Ops manual; The Viofo provided ops manual is small with small text (font) size, best to print a larger format from the Viofo web site. Ops manual content is about 90% on target for me as a first time installer.

Thus trial and error learning operations was expected. No big deal because that is where BLACK BOX MY CAR is outstanding. Access to real and knowledgeable people at customer service staff is quickest the best I’ve ever experienced from a internet supplier.

Impressive to say the least. 4) The Hard Wire Kit (HWK). There were few questions with “Add a Fuse” connectivity and additive fuse values that were not covered with the installation page. BBMC service reps answered my questions technical with confidence, thus giving confidence to going forward with what appeared as conflicting information.

Followed directions with successful results. ( Kudos to the CS Staff !) 5) Viofo App: This took patience on my part due wifi connectivity and dealing with procedural issues (i. e. not one of my strong skill sets).

App usage now is properly established and working fine. Summary: As of 05. 04. 22, the A129 Duo Plus is fully operational, road tested with videos downloaded and saved to my computer and or phone. Video quality is proven to be very good to excellent and better than expected.

I am at this point pleased with the product price point, quality of the components and video. Thus, I can rate Viofo A129 Duo Plus with a 5 star rating and recommendation. Best regards to all.

I had 2 x Blackvue DR650GW-2CH dash cams fail after the warranty period. I chose the “VIOFO A129 Pro Duo 4K 2-Channel Dash Cam with GPS” over the “ThinkWare U1000 Dual-Channel Cloud Dash Cam” because it had better reviews.

I also received a sweeter discount on my purchase to seal the deal. Installation was a breeze for me since I had done it numerous times except the “Essential BlackboxMyCar Install Package” or either the “Add-A-Fuse Kits” should really allow customers to specify the fuse amperage rating and not just the fuse type.

I received 2 x 5A low-profile mini fuses when I actually needed a 7. 5A and 20A fuse, luckily I had some spares under the cover of my engine fuse box. Video quality is good for 4K @ 30FPS for the front and Full HD (1080p) for the rear.

But I am recording a bit of reflection from the windshields because the camera lenses can’t be flush or closer to the glass like the Blackvue DR650GW-2CH units. Not a big deal for me and my next purchase will be a CPL filter to see if that will actually make a difference.

The VIOFO mobile app is easy to use as well as the interface and buttons on the dash cam unit itself however I wish there was a PC application for VIOFO so that I can view what is on the microSD as either normal recording or an event recording and also be able to extract videos without the audio portion.

But all I can do is access the video files in plain old Window file explorer. Overall, I will still recommend the “VIOFO A129 Pro Duo 4K 2-Channel Dash Cam with GPS” to my family and friends as I am pretty satisfied with it.

I didn’t require any help from the staff at BlackboxMyCar to make my purchase even though I had submitted an inquiry just days or weeks before my purchase but nobody got back to me. I did my own research to make the final decision.

The VIOFO A129 Plus is a nice to have 2K front/1080p rear dashcam. Initially I was thinking of the 4K Pro model but this 2K dash is good enough. Before I bought this dashcam, I literally watched all the BBMC reviews which helped a lot to decide and buy.

Here are some of the features that is important to know which may not have been discussed on some of the reviews: 1. As mentioned, the 2K front/1080p rear resolution is good enough to see what is needed.

2. The VIOFO app is easy to use, since it has to be connected via Wi-fi, your mobile phone and the dash should be in proximity with each other. 3. The loop recording should be set to 1 min. The 1 min footage/file created is downloadable within 3-4 mins via the wi-fi connection between the dash and your mobile phone.

4. Downloading or saving a footage/file is easy. Once saved on your mobile phone, it can be zoomed in/out (just like how you do the Pinch-to-zoom in/out function on the touchscreen) to better see a subject, i.

e. plate number of a vehicle, road signs, etc. Most important of all is that the BBMC team is awesome, they have the SME’s (subject matter experts) and a very helpful team. From the time i was asking so many questions about the dash up to making the decision of what to buy until the ordering/shipping/tracking process they were always there to assist.

They also helped me through chat messages on how to configure the dash once I installed it on my car. I highly recommend BBMC to everyone whose planning to buy a dash cam + accessories for their vehicles.

I will definitely buy again from them. Thank you and may the force be with you 🙂 J.

I’m happy to have bought the camera; the features will be very useful to me. I used the live chat to make sure I was getting what I needed. One of the questions I asked, was if it needed and SD card.

I was told it didn’t. When it arrived, I was excited – until I read the instructions. The first instruction was to insert the SD card. Which I hadn’t ordered at the same time, but would have, which is why I asked!!! Now, I have to wait until I can drive to the city (without the camera set up) to buy the SD card, because I can’t imagine paying shipping for such a small item.

Unfortunately, I can’t give a proper review regarding the camera, because I haven’t yet been able to use it. I’m not impressed. Also, I liked the idea of the parking protection, but not sure how practical it is, since I was told I should bring the camara into the house in cold weather to prevent battery failure, and I’m going to guess the extreme heat in summer probably won’t be good for it either.

But, I guess it will help when I’m making a day trip to the city and have to leave the vehicle parked somewhere while I do my errands.

I bought this to replace a cheap dash cam I purchased on the internet about 10 years ago. I knew the resolution was 720 but did expect a much better picture which is actually worse than my previous dc.

It’s quite pixely and is unable to show the reg of cars in front at a reasonable distance. The brightness needs adjustment in the set up as it’s quite dark but from early experience it doesn’t cope well with changes such as bright sunshine as you turn into the sunlight.

I would recommend spending a bit more for a better picture. Not bothered about wi fi or gps so no comment on that aspect. Having said that if it just to protect the driver for insurance purposes it will do the job.

I would just add that it does not come with a suction holder as I was advised. It is supplied with two sticky pads for attachment to the windscreen.

Over the years I have owned several dash cams. The NextBase 222 is the best one so far. Easy of setting up. Compact, tucks in behind my mirror. Great image quality. Always on standby should someone back into your vehicle while it is parked it will start recording automatically into a protected file.

Unfortunately like all my other cameras it also has this strange explainable phenomena. It will not record a complete full stop of fewer than 2 seconds duration such as at a stop sign. The resulting playback implies a roll-through.

This could have serious consequences should you need the footage for something like a court case.

Works well with good video quality. I’m adjusting settings to get better night videos. My headlights are bright and makes the license plates unreadable. The settings are somewhat difficult to decipher, but there’s plenty of online resources for that.

Install was straightforward with the hardwire kit. I wish the tape was not pre-installed. You can avoid noticeable air bubbles from the outside by attaching the tape to the window first. Squeeze air out.

Then install the camera over it. You will likely have an air bubble on the backside of the camera but it won’t be viewable from the outside window. The electrostatic tape installs okay/ It’s like using those old phone screen protectors.

Hard to install perfectly without lint adhering to cause air bubbles. The cable management clips use a grey adhesive, so it’s noticeable from the outside. The rear cable is quite thick and made it difficult to fish through the rubber grommets.

I kinda wish I waited for the new a229 as it uses a thinner wire. The bluetooth button should have been included, because it’s a pain to reach for the cam while driving to save a specific video. I wish the camera had an automated way of not using parking mode when I am parked at home in my garage.

I don’t need parking mode when I am home, so I have to remember to turn it off. It’s a waste for it to be running and recording video in a pitch black garage. The camera rattles on the gps mount at certain driving speeds and gets very annoying.

When I play the video back, it sounds terrible. The rattle is so bad that it actually triggers the G sensor at the LOWEST setting! I put a very small piece of electrical tape on it. The rattle is no longer audible, but this makes dismounting the camera slightly more difficult.

I need to find some thin felt tape to put in there, but Viofo should have added this as part of the design instead of wasting my time to fix it. The included USB to SD card reader is useless. Throw it away.

It’s usb 2. 0 so it’s far too slow to playback or copy multiple files. I highly recommend people to buy a USB 3 to SD adapter that works with all phones and computer operating systems.

The set up was easy and the wire lengths were adequate for a medium size SUV. The instructions were intuitive and quite clear too. Setting up and using was relatively straightforward and the picture and sound qualities are good.

Only downsides is the rear to front wire connecting the rear camera to the front has only one 90 deg angled micro USB connection but it would have been useful to have this at both ends. Why? Because you are running the wire across the rear windscreen too, just like at the front.

Another minus is the windscreen electrostatic tape. If you try to stick this to a hatchback, after a few closes, it will fall off. That’s because you have the heater wires that don’t make it stick without gaps and every thump to close the hatch just moves the electrostatic sticker off the windscreen.

Overall, I will still recommend this dashcam as so far, it works well and records everything. I will surely update this review later after a year, and as I use this dashcam. For the price and its capabilities, it’s really good to buy.

The pictures and recording are nice, but I have a couple issues with this camera which people should consider before buying this. First issue I have is the WiFi. I have to connect to the camera every time I drive the car, it is not automatic which is annoying.

The WiFi connection is slow. The second issue I have which make me not so happy with the camera is left and right view. It has the option to change the view left to right or right to left. But the problem is that when my front camera show correct view, the rear camera show the wrong (opposite) left/right view.

For example: my house is located on the left of the street and the front cam has the correct view, but when I change to view the rear camera it is shown on the right of the street. This make me concern about safety when or if you use it as back up camera because your car doesnt have one.

People behind you are actually on the left side of the car, but the rear camera shows right side of the car??? This is dangerous. The cam itself has the option to change left to right or right to left.

Thought it will fix the problem?? but when you change left to right or right to left, it will change both cameras not just the one you want to change. I am not sure if I am the only one who faced this issue or my rear camera is defected? Or the lens were install backwards?? If it is the issue, hope they will fix it.

Thank you.

I really like this thing. Get it installed correctly and you have excellent coverage in the front and the rear. I can see things very clearly in the dark, too. All the bad reviews of this camera are from last year when the Momento app didn’t work with iOS 13.

Now it does, so you can breathe a sigh of relief. The app itself is intuitive to use and provides all the utilities you will need. If worse comes to worst and you have to call customer service for any reason, you’ll get an English speaker who understands you and is knowledgeable about the product.

P. S. I am not a representative of Momento, but my terrible experience with cheaper dash cams has led me to ask that you heed this warning: don’t be fooled by all of those cheap 4K dash cams on eBay and Amazon.

If you don’t want headaches with coverage, and you want to actually pick up the accident you have, you need the features and reliability this camera offers. I’ve used the cheap ones and they’re always short in some critical area that you won’t even know about until you buy it.

Save yourself time and effort and buy quality from the beginning.

I was Angry and Disappointed when this thing was installed in my car. The ONE star I am giving is for the picture quality. PROS: GREAT HD picture quality recorded. CONS: Does NOT allow remote viewing.

DOES NOT allow multiple users to connect and view at same time which is bad considering the amount of files you have to search through to try and find any incident that occurs with your vehicle while it is parked.

Does NOT send Push notifications when motion/impact detected which would narrow down what timeframe you would need to review. You have to sit in car while car is on, to connect to Momento wifi in order to view 100’s of recordings to try and find out when incident occurred while your car was parked.

Limited front and rear capture view. (Not 140° recording view)Downloading files takes forever. No one has hours upon hours to sit and sift through video recordings. I could go on and on. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT UNLESS YOU ARE SPECIFICALLY LOOKING FOR AN OVERPRICED, GLORIFIED DASH CAM.

I researched this and it’s very highly recommended by several sites. It’s perfect if you want interior and exterior recording. The images were high quality, menu was simple. It doesn’t have the Wi-Fi option, which I actually prefer.

Otherwise my phone always tries to connect to a camera instead of CarPlay. Couple of things to know. First, they strongly recommend only Samsung SD cards be used. I didn’t try SanDisk so can’t comment.

Secondly, the power connection only has a non-removeable cigarette lighter terminal. Usually these have usb cable and option to use adapter or not. But this doesn’t. In my new car, there is only usb ports, nothing else.

I had to purchase a cable to power the camera that way. Keep these points in mind so you are all set to install.

I have purchased and used five or six upper level Dash cams. Dash cams are one of those things that you often get exactly what you pay for. If you notice there are a lot of them available in the $40-$100 price range.

Theyre worth exactly that. My favorite manufacture to date is DOD. Because they have been slow in getting their latest 4K models to the US market I gave this one a try. First of all I must say that the video quality as well as sound picked up from inside the vehicle are excellent.

I am using a 256 GB card from Vantrue. There are three complaints that I have with their models. The first and to me the most important is the large number of files created when recording. This model records and stores the files in three minute segments.

If you run the camera continually for 30 minutes to an hour you will have a huge number of files to deal with. I requested that they make a change so that when loop recording is turned off the camera simply continues to record into one file.

They have not been able to do this thus far. For the average user who simply uses this to record in case of an accident that probably will not be a problem because you delete the files anyway. My second complaint is the design of the windshield mount.

The unit is shipped with only a suction mountwhich may or may not hold. Other manufactures include both a suction as well as an adhesive mount. Third complaint is the GPS function is not built into the camera.

You are required to buy a 30 dollar GPS mount which either comes in suction cup or adhesive. Power is attached to the unit through the mount which becomes cumbersome and prevents you from rotating the camera more than a few degrees because there is a wire inside the mount.

I have been able to contact DOD and they have shipped me their latest 4K model (UHD4K) directly from Taiwan. Unfortunately I will be returning this unit.

This N2 Pro dash cam is phenomal. The fact that it’s 2 channel recording is in 1080p is great enough, but the night vision/IR on the rear (cabin) facing camera is essential to my use as an Uber and Lyft driver.

On the second night of having the camera I had a distruptive Uber Pool passenger. He was rude and annoying the other pool passengers. I pulled over to end the pool ride for this guy and he threatened to 1-star review me and said he’d tell Uber that I was the rude one, and that he’d get his money back for me cancelling the ride.

I told him to go ahead, because my N2 Pro dash camera was recording this whole event, and I’d be sure that Uber saw what really happened. After that, he shut up and we had no more issues. The potential horrible ride turned out to be not as bad, thanks to the N2 Pro on the windshield! Thanks Vanture!.

Not easy to use and doesnt fit the description, wifi wont connect and tried many times to connect it but it wouldnt connect. The resolution of it at night is also very badly and Its price is a lot for the little things that it does.

I bought two and Ill only take one because the other one wouldnt have been for me so whoever will use it wont be able to turn it on every time(which is a lot of work). The one I am returning is fully closed not opened I will only be taking the one I had already opened !.

I have had issues with my neibor sabotaging all of my vehicles, with buying a new vehicle I was still having issues with it so I took it to the garage and had them go over it finally I got enough proof that I called the police.

I was told to monitor it. I got this to monitor my new car. it is wonderful as it monitors the outside and internalIy, my neibor hasn’t touched my car since knowing he is on camera every time he goes near it.

It was Alittle hard to understand atfirst in setting it up bu as I did it with the directions it made sense. It is worth the peace of mind. I recommend getting one.

I know I’m doing everything right but 75% of the time it doesn’t record video properly. I used the best quality micro SD cards and formatted it correctly. It wants to record in a format that reads audio instead of mp4.

I’m very unhappy with this Undependable piece of expensive junk. F-.

Has better quality video than I expected, and small enough to fit behind the review mirror. Some states will give you a ticket for things on your windshield so that’s important. Suction cup mount is holding but took a few tries to get it to work just right, plan to switch to stick-on mount after a week or so when I know everything is working and positioned like I want.

The magnet lock separation is an awesome feature so you can pop it out of the vehicle without removing the mount, and it holds very solidly. If it had better instructions included I would have given it 5 stars.

Be sure to buy a good quality large memory card.

We saw the dr02 and reoordeweed 2ore only to find out it is a single front camera only. Seeing Aukey does not do repairs of any kind and have no source for outside repairs. Replacement only and only under warranty conditions which is normal.

Customer service by e-mail is good but the phone option is horrible. No one answers, no one can leave a voice mail because the mail box is always full. If you do a smds it doesn’t work either. I have 2 vehicles with one camera each that is not working.

This was the reason we tried to purchase 2 new dr02 dual camera sets.

No regrets purchasing this camera – is not too hard on the wallet! I feel so much better having this device while I drive. If you keep this plugged in, the camera will automatically turn on. It’ll turn off once you turn off your vehicle.

There are not too many buttons on this – so it is easy to figure out! I am having trouble figuring out how to leave the video on (not sure what I pressed), but the video feed turns off not long after it powers up.

Will reach out to customer service. Purchase this device!.

The Nextbase 522GW has a nice sized 3 inch HD screen to allow for easy setup and operation of the DashCam. With Alexa built in its also easy to control various features with your voice for the best of hands-free operation.

Also included on the unit itself is a polarizing lens which is a nice touch helping to mitigate glare. To set up the Nextbase 522GW I charged it for 2hrs as instructed and then I was ready to go. Make sure to either purchase a Nextbase microSD Card or equivalent to insure you will always be able to record.

As a dash cam is always writing and rewriting data this is key to having a recording available when you need it. An XC-U3-V30 speed card will be sufficient for your needs, I’d recommended getting no less than a 64GB Card but you can go as high as 128GB.

Power is supplied with a Cigarette Lighter Adapter or you can purchase a hardwire kit. Mounting is achieved with a combination adhesive and magnetic mount that allows for easy removal of the 533GW from your vehicle if needed and routing of the power wire is made easier with the included tool to help hide the wire in between crevasses in your car for a nice clean install.

There is built in GPS that records your location which is refreshed 10x every second to allow for very precise location data recording. Next, download the Nextbase Connect App to allow your smartphone to communicate with the camera seamlessly which allows you to easily share content if needed.

The My Nextbase Player can also be downloaded to your PC for video editing, sharing etc. All this is great but how is the video quality? I think its great with just a tad of video quality degradation at night but tolerable, I found 1080P is the best quality for night recroding as it has a slightly higher light sensitivity.

The pic is crisp enough to make out details such as license plates etc if needed in the case of an accident or other mishap, and with the aid of the included polarizing lens you have a crystal-clear pic.

Intelligent Parking Mode is also very useful as it keeps a watchful eye on your car when its parked and you are away. Using the G-sensor in the camera it detects motion such as a jolt to the car and it will start recording for you to be able to look back and see what happened and who did it.

Overall I found the Nextbase 522GW to be a well built high quality great addition to my car and a contributor to peace of mind should something happen.

I’ve had this for a few months and did some testing with it in various driving conditions. It works well overall, especially for the price, but has some limitations. It captures video reliably and stores it to the SD card without any issues.

I reviewed the videos on my laptop. The sound capture is great, and the video quality is good enough to prove an accident wasn’t your fault, but if you’re hoping to be able to get enough detail to see license plate numbers, you’ll need a different camera.

Even at the highest resolution setting, I couldn’t make out any license plate numbers when I drove by parked cars in broad daylight at 20 mph. Night time video is not great quality no matter how the settings are changed.

No way is this product high definition at all. The main reason I am returning these cameras is because I wanted them for surveillance on my car when I’m not in it—such as for, hit and runs and break ins.

These cameras record only when plugged into the cigarette lighter. You can charge them but the battery won’t last long unless plugged in constantly. Plus, the images are stored onto a microSD card, not streamed through an app, which is really inconvenient.

Just not good for what I need them for, poor quality and out of date technology.

It’s a simple but effective camera. The unit is lightweight, the interface is simple, and the power cord is sufficiently lengthy. The suction cup holds nice and hard with an added locking feature. Day or night, the recording quality of both the front and back facing cameras is excellent.

I couldn’t figure out the WiFi connection. The app wouldn’t connect, not easy to figure out. When I did connect it, not sure how it did work and record, I was able to view video but then would lose connection.

I attempted to remove the camera and bring it in the house again to start over. I thought I got it but then the film square plastic piece wouldn’t stick, I had another since it came with 2, but then I couldn’t remove the plastic without pulling the adhesive part off the camera.

Soooo I’m returning. I thought this was easy, cute, and I loved the app. But turned out yo be a mess. Couldn’t even find any help in English. 1 very clear review on YouTube which ended up being his hang up as well.

Bought this for my daughter and she loves it. Unlike mine, it has no big, clunky suction mount and since she put it up high on the passengers side windshield, it frees up a ton of room. Resolution is nice and it records onto a memory card that you have to buy making it possible to get a 64 card that will basically loop forever.

The camera was easy to install. Learning to operate it required more efforts as the manual only refers to using it with the app.

People that gave this Garmin dash cam a 1 star have no idea how to actually use the camera properly and are focusing on the wrong things. First of all, one of the most misunderstood aspects about the Garmin dash cam is that it does not record continuously and that you have to manually save a video if you get into a car accident – that is simply not the case at all.

The camera continuously records 24/7 while you have the camera on. The video is broken up into 1-minute increments and is saved in the microSD card in the camera. If you ever want to review any footage you simply have to get a full-size micro SD card adapter and then insert it into your computer to view your driving history up to the limits of whatever MicroSD card you have.

In my case, I got a bigger Samsung 64gb SD card that can keep track of almost a week’s worth of driving history. Yes you need Wi-Fi connection to view the footage in the Garmin App which I actually didn’t have too much issues with compared to the other reviewers.

The quality won’t be the same as viewing it on the computer of course which is fine because using the app is really only meant for a quick reference. The 1440p quality, the extremely small size of this dash cam and its very easy mounting process is why I got this camera.

The user experience of the camera is great too because you can easily dismount the dash cam off the magnetic mount if you need to be and the mount is as unobtrusive as can be. I was originally worried that the camera would have an always-on display which I preferred not to have but the camera screen can actually turn off by itself after a minute of driving which pretty much happens once you get your vehicle going down the road.

Overall, if you’re looking for a high quality, easy-to-use dash cam that is both very compact and discreet and not distracting for you while driving, whilst having plenty of extra features like voice control or the safety alerts on the camera, you can’t go wrong with the Garmin 57w.

Nice little camera with good video quality. Got it installed (hardwired) at Halfords. If you view the images on a large PC screen, you can just about read the number plates of cars coming in the opposite direction on a freeze-frame.

The camera has quite a few “driver assist” features that I either don’t like (forward collision alert, lane departure alert) or don’t need (Go alert, Speed camera alert), so I spent quite a bit of time figuring out how to turn them all off (the manual is not brilliant).

The free ‘upload to vault’ (images saved for 24 hours) is also of questionable value (imo), so I also turned that off. Otherwise, it takes several minutes trying to upload large files when you come home (i.

e. get within wifi range) after switching off the ignition. Much easier to just eject the micro SD card and insert into your PC/laptop if you need to review footage. In summary, the core features of the device (video quality, GPS location, compact size) are all very good.

I may invest in a 132 GB sd card, as the one it comes with is only 16 GB, which apparently only gives about 1. 5 hours of recording before it starts to over-write).

Bought this a few weeks back and installed easily using the included mount and cables. Good quality images and useful additional features (speed cam alerts, lane departure etc) that can be turned off if you want.

Voice control useful to tell camera to save a photo/video if you spot something happening ahead rather than pressing a button – camera automatically saves photo/video if it detects a collision etc. itself.

Bonus that when I put a hard wire “Parking Mode” cable in the basket, it came turned out to be FREE!!. A promotion not mentioned on the website. Fitted that this weekend (needed 2 piggy back fuse holder/cables + 2 amp fuses) cable routed in head lining for a professional looking concealed cable job 🙂 Nice that camera includes a 16gb mem card to get you going.

One star off for not including a polarising filter to reduce reflections (useful but not essential). Overall a decent piece of kit at a reasonable price, even better if you spot it on a Halfords promo that comes up every now and then.
