Have been using the Dash cam for a couple of months and well worth it. Gives me a peace of mind when leaving car in a busy shopping centre parking lot. Also the video quality is very good.
Everything works well, but the LTE SIM setup can be a bit challenging. The SIM slot should be relocated to eliminate the need to remove the power and rear camera cable to access it.
Although, only having this dash camera for a few weeks. The camera has functioned as expected. I have since recorded several incidents that could be used to help multiple individuals. I could have tried and install the cameras myself however wanting to make sure that this is completed correctly. I had a professional conduct the installation taking into account the side curtain airbags and the removal of the platic doorsill to conceal the wires for a seemless install.
I also had a difficult time getting an answer from any of the forums as to what fuse amperage should be used if you have an open fuse slot that is being used as the installation camera hardwire point. The installer indicted you would use a fuse amperage to protect the camera which is usually between 3 and 5 Amp depending upon the camera. But the camera can help you with this aspect.
The only fault I found with the camera thus far is with the app and connecting to the camera unless I'm in the vehicle. The app requires significant work to make it stable and improve the connectivity. To improve the camera rating when taken as a whole the APP must be improved otherwise you are selling a half completed system. With the improvement of the App I can see my review going from 3 🌟 to 5 🌟. Without this improvement I suspect the rating review will not go beyond a 3 star rating. The night recording is quite clear given the minimal ambient lighting. I have included the rear view camera on of a nightly drive. I have also included several photos of the installation as well.
Now to the retailer who was very good with filling and shipping my order in a timely manner, which allowed me to have the new dash camera checked for functionality and installed ASAP.
Once again this rating could have been much higher if the App functioned as expected. But unfortunately there is much work to be conducted on that front to bring the overall camera rating up.
Excellent
I've never felt safer than with this camera installed. It helped me not just for accidents but for avoiding them too by reviewing footage and seeing patterns I could avoid. Setting up wasn’t too bad, but the phone app could be better optimized. Delighted with this way more than past cameras!
