" ... There are lots of options when you read through the instructions which sound ever so complex, but the defaults are all set so it is really ready to go out of the box. ... Easy to install, just ease back the rubber seal by the passenger door and run the wire up so that it is invisible. ... OK, I have done it before but it is really easy. ... "

" ... broke few micro sd cards cause of error for some reasons, this dashcam just eats micro sd card. ... "
" ... I had to buy the micro SD card separately and now it won't fully cluck in so I still can't use it. ... "
" ... not happy it had no memory card and not able to fix to window securely, bought memory card as recommended and does not fit so had to go into town to buy another one! ... "
" ... It all seemed fine until I tried to insert the memory card. ... I've wasted 2 memory cards and £30 quid. ... "
" ... More like a toy than a dashcam, it does not record directly to the memory card and for some strange reason even though it shows as recording it wasn't actually recording! ... "
" ... Had to return mine when the card loader mechanism failed trapping the sd card inside. ... "
" ... I didn't get an SD card with the product. ... "
" ... These files accumulate since they are never overwritten and so I have to format the SD card every few weeks. ... If you are not aware of this ridiculous 'feature' you may be driving around with a full SD card and a useless dashcam ... "

" ... Even after driving most of the day with the camera always on charge, its has no battery. ... "
" ... You have to use the wire provided as it battery dies quick will be investing in a wireless one instead. ... "
" ... I charged the camera as prescribed in the manual but it died within 5 mins of use. ... I recharged it and the same thing occurred. ... "
" ... It needs to be constantly plagued in as battery life is zero. ... "
" ... Another thing to hate about it is the lead that comes with it has a huge connection that takes up the whole 12v charging point so you cant us it to charge a phote or anything else, not good in this day and age. ... "

" ... I've noticed that while driving at night the camera is still showing color on screen, picture seems steady. ... "
" ... Easy to set up screen bright as a button ... "
" ... Its nice big clear screen helps you see when it's first turned on a wide angle of the road, crisp quality and well worth every penny. ... "
" ... This machine has a good size screen, clear picture, haven't used it at night much, has stayed on window since I have had it. ... "
" ... There are even symbols to the sides of the screen which indicate the button functions, which I found useful. ... When I checked the footage, it was actually still recording - although the screen was black. ... Although you can set the screen saver to 'off' in the menu, when you restart the car it reverts back to its default 30 second time out. ... "
" ... Great picture on the smallish screen,got a good deal of menu options to personalise,the only downside to it is that with it turned on,my Pure Highway 600 DAB receiver does not work. ... "

" ... Comes with two options for fixing, suction or sticky pad and a good length power cable to enable it to be routed out of the way around the cabin. ... "
