Go for 70mai A500s pro. You won't regret.
What I have (Thinkware F800 pro) is overkill, and I don't recommend it - especially for any modern car with crash-safety and red-light stuff.
Very happy with both of my Red Tiger F7N front and rear facing Dash cams. One in my truck, one in my wife's car. Affordable as well.
I'm more than happy with my Viofo A129 Plus.
I’ve got a BlackVue 750X Plus, wouldn’t recommend. Video quality is pretty average.
Thinkware. I’ve owned multiple units and they all work flawlessly.
Last September I did lots of research to find a good dash cam and I settled on a Red Tiger 4K on Amazon. At the time I paid ~$177 AUD. It’s both front and rear. Good quality image. Easy to install and has an app for phone too.
I have a Uniden 3-In-1 Dash Camera - 4K Ultra HD Smart Dash Cam with FULL HD Rear View and Internal Cabin Camera. DASHVIEW40R. It's in the AUD $400 range. I'm happy with it.
Bought my daughter the Dynacam 14k off Amazon and she is very happy with it.
No issues with my U1000 after 3+ years.
I got the dual channel ROVE 4k dashcam and highly recommend it.
Would definitely recommend the Mini 2 to anyone looking for a starter 1ch cam.
I have the same Viofo A119 mini 2 and love it.
I would recommend the Thinkware U3000 based on my research.
very happy with it.
I would absolutely not recommend them.
Looks factory, works great.
I recommend it highly!
My brother just got a Red Tiger for his 59 Mercury, I looked at the files last night, nice and clear.
I love mine.
I have the Qubo Pro 3k front and Rear. Works well.
Highly recommend, installed myself In an hour or so.
i highly recommend Garmin's Mini Dash Cam 2.
Been using a Rexing for the last 6-7 years.
I’m using Rexing, three-channel ones, front, rear, and cabin, super reliable.
Wolfbox works great!
works great and is comparable to more expensive cameras.
I would recommend.
I’m going to recommend it again, viofo mini 2.
Surprised no one mentioned the Pruvee 360. It has 4 cameras. I love it.
I love it.
It's tiny, reliable, good enough picture quality, and easy to operate.
It’s been fine. App works well and fairly cheap.
Very happy with it so far and can add rear camera etc.
I have a cobra sc400, and love it.
Had a A119 V2 for the last 6 years and had no issues.
I have a Thinkware 3000 and Powercell 8 external battery pack set up and it works great.
Reliable and terrific picture quality.
I highly recommend the wedge style like the viofo a119.
has lasted more than 5 years in Texas weather.
I've been overall happy with the Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2.
It seems to work well enough though it is only forward facing.
Easy to set up, low power, not obtrusive. App is great, never had an issue recording.
I have a Garmin Mini 2 and the Hachi Electronics harness kit, no issues, both work perfectly.
No issues. Like that is the size of a matchbox.
I have a 70mai A810 and love it.
Just bought one and have no issues so far.
Recommend the same a229 plus or pro 3 channel paired with a battery pack
Installed VIOFO a229 plus. Hardwired and works great.
VIOFO A229 Plus for me. I'm pretty happy with it.
I am happy with it.
I have the Viofo A139 and while it works well.
Would recommend something like that, and it stays on while parked too.
Overall very happy with it and will definitely stick with them next time.
I’m pretty happy with the VIOFO a129 I have
I've had the Viofo A129 for a few years now in my GK5 and it works great.
This is the one I have and am happy with it.
1CH i can recommend is Viofo A119 Mini 2 for 107€ on Viofo Benelux if you apply the coupon "DUMPERT".
I love it.
Me and my wife have the Vantrue N4 Pro. It works great.
Works great and only took me a couple hours to get it wired in.
I have the Vantrue N4 with the new sensor connected to the ASC port via hachi electronics’ pnp harness. Self installed front and back cams in about 20 minutes. I love the entire setup. Highly recommend.
I had it for 8yrs no issues so far.
It's hardwired and I mostly forget it's there. However, it'd very app reliant and has some annoying quirks. But it'd EXTREMELY reliable.
Thinkware and Blackvue are the two brands I recommend to people.
It works great.
FitcamX install was easy enough, just take your time removing the plastic housing.
Try the fitcamx. I have it for the front and back of the van. Works great and it hides well with the rear view mirror.
Live in Vegas and have had a FitCamX for the past 2 years and no issues.
Works great and looks good.
I recommend the FitCamX. I bought one for about $225 for my F-150. It plugs into the wiring harness behind my rearview mirror. It came complete and the install was a 5 minute process. Works great!
have been happy with it. I like how it integrates in the car.
I have the FitCamX (front) and it looks like OEM (factory). 4k and SD storage. It gets power from the sunroof, so you do not need to do extra install. Highly recommend it.
love it.
Recommend waiting for the fitcamx release.
I’ve been running FitCamX for over a year now on my 500h with no issues.
Fitcamx do good stuff with plastics to suit your car so it looks like a factory installation
works well.
Highly recommend FITCAMX.
Works great as dashcam and rear view mirror.
I installed one of the Wolfbox cameras last year.
I can’t recommend it though as the app is terrible.
I can safely recommend Nextbase.
I have been using a Nextbase and rear dash can since December and have had no issues!
in general happy with it.
Installed it myself in my 2024 CX90. Took me about an hour with no issues or regrets. Works beautifully!
I totally recommend the ring dash cam it is amazing.
I've been extremely happy with my Rove R2-4K for the past nearly 5 years.
I recommend the BlackVue or ThinkWare series.
I have a yeecore H22. Works great for me.
I've had about a dozen dashcams over the years and love this.
I'm pretty happy with it.
works great.
strongly recommend VIOFO A229 because it comes in dual channel and has a newer sensor with better video quality.
I've been happy with Viofo a229 2channel.
Love it.
I'm also a happy Viofo user, 100% recommend
I don’t recommend fitcamx.
Viafo uses super capacitors instead of a traditional battery, it’s why they last a bit better in our climate.
I have the THINKWARE U3000 front and read. It works great.
outstanding video quality and in parking mode would last weeks.
The more basic Q200 can last over a day with certain settings.
I've been pretty happy with my Thinkware Q200.
I just got a think ware q200 from blackboxmycar.com, it took an afternoon to install myself. Super happy with it.
I recommend Thinkware brand.
Blackvue works great.
I don’t recommend it to anyone now.
BkackVue is very highly recommended in Australia.
Very happy with it.
I have had very good success, over the last 14 years, with blackvue cameras.
I have a BlackVue front/rear that I’ve been very happy with. Easy to install, right into the fuse panel.
I am using a 70Mai for the last 2-3 years whithout any issues.
using a400 70mai. no issues with it at all so far.
Would highly recommend 70mai.
definitely recommend their products as they are easy to use.
I would also recommend Nexar for someone that likes a good phone app/connectivity.
It actually outlasted an Aukey camera, and then I transferred it to the VIOFO and reformatted and it kept chugging along.
I have Aukey dual dash cams in 2 fits for a few years now. No issues.
