Terrible – Bought this from supercheap auto for $200 back in 9th October 2021 and already the battery has bulged and the camera is absolutely useless. Screen won’t turn on and the casing is splitting apart from the swollen battery. “ Super-capacitor technology provides reliable recording of footage in extreme temperatures” yet it can’t handle 37 degrees in… Read more
constant Australian heat with the battery bulging.
The dash camera won’t turn on. A blue led light shows but the screen won’t turn on. Only 3 years old and it’s broken…
Turns itself off while driving, zero after-sales service, AVOID AT ALL COSTS – the dashcam is hardwired, when parked it is always in a standby mode which starts recording when it detects movement. however, after two days of owning it, it now goes into standby mode while driving. if i press the button to start recording again, it will record for approx 30 seconds, then stop recording again. no recording while driving =… Read more
useless. instruction booklet does not detail the functions of the device, and is even entirely missing some of the features like "LDWS" (Lane Departure Warning System is written on the box, but no details other than "how to turn it on/off in the menu" is given in the booklet) or "FCWS" (i can only assume this is Frontal Collision Warning System, this is in the device menu, but entirely omitted from the booklet). i currently have both of these features turned on, but no warnings are given when i drive down the centreline of a road (during testing) or if I tailgate a car at 1-2m distance. i tried contacting them via their facebook page, and after one week i still have not even had a response.
at $229, this is a disgrace. device is not fit for purpose, does not record while driving.
i am a professional accessories installer, so i had no problem installing it, but the booklet does not give enough information for an inexperienced person to install the device.
Its not bad for price – Takes good to adaquate video when set up correctly. Internal battery is a joke. It constantly loses the timestamp due to no power. From brand new the battery holds enough standby power(off) to hold the date for approx 1 hour, every time you dont use your car for one hour to recharge it. Resetting this every time is not reasonable. Obviously not… Read more
having a timestamp can be problematic ahould you wish to submit certain evidence.
I have captured some incredible footage with it. Footage thats well worth the price.
The screwknob tensioner to angle cam up and down hits the power plug, forcing it into a 5°angle on the horizontal plane.
Looks and works exactly as $50 Chinese counterpart. It's bad its money – The footage has the same quality as a simple Chinese dashcam for $49 from the Ebay. G-sensor is very sensitive - the camera starts recording even when you enter the car as it thinks there is a crash. A suction cup is not very sturdy, the camera wobbles after pressing any button on the camera. Show details
