Has anyone had hands-on experience with this dash cam? I urgently need one with 4K resolution. Need someone to share the legit experience here.

I looked into it 3 yrs ago when i upgraded from garmin mini. Some bad reviews so i didn't buy it. Looking at review videos and comparing 1080 2k 4k cameras they all look about the same. My moto g power 2020 could do better in 1080 than my current 4k dash cam. Today i'd get 2 of these for front and back instead of 1080 rear. Those are useless. I'm currently looking for better quality 2k/4k 60fps single channel for front and rear. So far no reason to upgrade. All the same crap.

This is a fake deal. There is nothing that distinguishes this generic dashcam from many others priced under $100 (some are even under $50). This is a typical Chinese price manipulation.

I got this cam for Christmas. I really like it so far. Easy to setup and use. Very clear quality. I'm sure there are better cams out there, but for the money I don't see anything wrong with this one.

Is this easy to plug and play for install? How much would it cost to get it installed?
don't hardwire. get an obd2 port adapter with 2 usb ports. I started using one recently and it seems to work ok. Mine was around $18 from amazon. Ali has them cheaper.

Yes like every other brand. Prices are inflated and then sellers give us "discount code" to make us believe we're getting a deal.

The $89 price is completely unremarkable and is not a deal by any means.

You should be looking at the ones that say it has a Sony Starvis 4k Sensor. The Starvis 2 4k sensor is the newest and is good at night.

I had good experience with 70mai and they've been in business for a while as part of Xiaomi (A large Chinese phone and smart devices maker). Those can be on sale for $150 w/ a rear camera. I'd wait for their sales though. Look at the video reviews for their latest A810 with sample footage. Their app is decent.

You'll want to look at dashcams reviewed by known youtube reviewers with sample night footage.

If you want a clean look check out fitcamx dash cam. They don't say what kind of sensor they use but depending on your vehicle you just replace that plastic piece where the rear view mirror is and might be able to pull power off one of the harnesses in there. Has a built-in look but not sure about heat. I mount my 70mai behind the plastic trim so it doesn't get that hot.

Not particularly this model but F7N. The device restarted continuously after a 1 yr of use (warranty expired). But it started working fine when I removed the rear view camera. The front 2k or 4k camera is still working, and it's been 2+ years. OK, quality video. Not sure if I should recommend it. Just an OK dash cam

Get Wolfbox brand. I recommend at least G850 model since it come with better backup camera. I like the mirror type dash cam because I can use it as rear view mirror all the time (has wide field of view and could see blind spot)
I have three of them in three of our family cars and it has never failed. I used the recording twice for insurance claim.
This brand often goes on sale on Amazon and it has excellent customer services.

Frame rate is too low. 30fps front and 25fps rear. Once you hit 60mph, the license plates will start to blue badly due to motion. Don't buy cameras with anything less than 60fps, even if they do 60fps at 1080p, you will still get the plate. At 4K and 30fps, it will be just a 4K noise and blur.

Why does it matter who is reviewing the dashcam? Feels like all you need is enough sample footage in a variety of circumstances and not even from a reviewer. Ideal if you can grab the clean footage and not one ran through another compression algorithm (Youtube). For an item like this I'd trust Amazon reviews for use and installation over any single review.

But definitely singling out a sensor is a good shout for looking at alternatives (and price comparison on how good of a deal it is). Dashcams are wrought with marketing garbage where it's hard to know what's good or not.

Not this one but i have been very happy with the VIOFO Dash Cam A119 Mini 2, STARVIS 2 Sensor. i bought 2 of them for my acura MDX. they both work independently so you dont have to run the wire from the back to the front. I just plug it into the cigarette lighter in the back.

$200 and change to protect my drives for ATL, GA.

I have an older version of RedTiger dashcam and this one looks like a good upgrade. The one I have has the smaller camera so this is a good upgrade. Also I recommend getting the one with the rear camera. I have the interior rear camera and no tint on my rear window and it takes good enough videos at night.

Where do you go to buy returns from Amazon? If I have an Amazon warehouse in my city can I just go there? Or how does this work?
Have you been to bin stores? Amazon might not sell to them, but they put out entire bins of returns at discounted prices, and drop the price a little each day until they top up again every week.
They're kind of fun, as long as you don't go crazy with stuff you don't need.

VIOFO is CRAP
Unit stops recording when it gets hot in summer!!!!

I live in the desert and park in the sun and my VIOFO has worked for 5 years now even hot. Sorry yours has not but that might be a less common story.

Dash cams all have compromises, VIOFO is frequently a good value one.

I question if this cam truly achieves an f stop 1.5? If so how can things be in focus that are relevant?

My advice is read extensively and decide what features you really need. My other dash cam has integrated radar and is nice, with compromises of high price and junk viewing software.
