Top critical review
3.0 out of 5 starsNot very clear
Reviewed in Canada on September 22, 2022
I have no experience with dash cams and can only comment based on video quality from what others post on Youtube or other social media. Had this for a few days and reviewed many clips to ensure the camera's quality consistency.
Pros:
- less expensive than other cameras
- includes a 32GB micro SD card
- wide angle recording as advertised
- relatively easy to figure out and install
- haven't tried to hide the cable yet so not sure if it's long enough
- so far it has been functioning without issues
Cons:
- picture quality is not great, is very grainy in the dark and even during the day
- would expect more from a FHD 1080p camera
- won't be able to record any license plates or street names at night. When light reflects the camera can't capture any details
- lighting must be perfect in order to capture car license in front of you
- need to be within a few feet to clearly see license plate
Summary:
Entry level camera that records with the video quality being so so. Even during the day the camera does not adjust to the lighting so detailed info (street names, license plates) may not be recorded. The grainy aspect is also something that could be better. At the same time, it might simply be "you get what you pay for". If you're not looking for high quality video and just something as a peace of mind then I think this camera does the job.
