" ... Pros: Video quality is good. ... "
" ... The video quality is great, even at night, at full 1080p and records in up to 10 min clips which are easily organized and viewable on a computer by date and time. ... "
" ... Video quality is good enough for this kind of use. ... "

" ... The cable included is very long which makes it so easy to hide along the teim of the car. ... "
" ... It comes with enough power cord and clips so that the cord can be attached around the rim of the windshield to the power outlet and not obstruct your view. ... "
" ... - The supplied power cord is nice and long - it was easy to tuck it up into the trim and route it all the way around to the power outlet invisibly, with cord to spare, in my Suburban. ... "
" ... Last, I was hoping to use a different mini usb cord to plug into my dual car charger, but so far seems like that may not draw enough power and I can only use the power cord it came with. ... "
" ... I installed it in my wife's Prius and it was really easy to route the power cable. ... "
" ... The video is clear for a small camera and it also has a very good long cable and clips. ... "
" ... Overall, I love this camera and it has served me faithfully for over a month (except the time the wire jiggled out of the 12V adaptor-plug and it missed the image of the huge elk walking across the road while I was driving). ... "
" ... I especially love they included little cable holders with adhesive backing to help organize the cable (which is very long and you can snake it all the way around your car). ... "

" ... I thought at first the bigger screens would be better. ... It has not bothered me that the screen is smaller since I haven’t had to use the device yet (knock on wood). ... "
" ... Although it’s great for fitting a lot in the screen, it almost makes things too small. ... "
" ... So I'm never sure if the space that the icons occupy is part of the recording screen or not. ... "
" ... The video quality is decent, just wish the screen was bigger. ... "

" ... Would've given it 5 stars overall except the suction cup is iffy at best. ... "
" ... I really like the size and the fact that it comes with 2 way tape vs Suction cups. ... "
" ... I would recommend looking into dashcams that show both front and rear, but this one has worked reliably well for me, besides the suction cup falling off a few times. ... "
" ... EZ to install - Suction cup or 3m stick on, even comes with extra 3m pads ... "
" ... It has been working fairly well over the period but lately the suction cup is getting weaker and weaker. ... "
" ... The camera had no issues and the suction cup attachment on its own held to my windshield better than any other I've ever had. ... "

" ... Last, I was hoping to use a different mini usb cord to plug into my dual car charger, but so far seems like that may not draw enough power and I can only use the power cord it came with. ... "
" ... It also provided a lot of accessories which makes wiring it up easy (the power socket adapter for the USB has two USB ports so it works well). ... "
" ... Additionally, it comes with a cigarrete lighter adapter for power, but uses a standard mini-USB connection and is able to run off the standard 5V USB ports in cars (Helpful tip: if your car has Android Auto/Apple Carplay, the camera may think it is connected to a computer and not operate as it did for me. ... "
" ... It is powered by a mini USB cable that is very long and plugs into the cigarette lighter. ... "
" ... They provide you with cables, the end is a USB so you do need a port for it to be plugged into. ... "
" ... The included charging cable has a built-in USB, I recommend this product. ... "
" ... Installation of this one is pretty easy - I ran the usb cable under my headline, down the side molding, up under the dash and plugged into my usb port. ... "

" ... Sure its probably not using U3 speeds like the card has but better to over-spec your sd card than just meet the requirement because thats another way that card corruption occurs leading to people needing to reformat it over and over which is not ideal if you need it in a accident situation. ...

Battery Life

" ... It's stood up to the extreme Florida heat perfectly as it uses a capacitor instead of a battery (batteries expand in extreme heat and end up damaging the camera). ... "
" ... I love how it also uses a super-capacitor battery as well, which makes it able to handle the hotter summers. ... "
" ... It's nice that it does not have an internal battery cause my last dash cam had one and after a year of use the battery was bulging causing the case to come apart. ... "
" ... I leave my dash cams on 24/7 - I got a bigger truck battery to make sure there's plenty of power for starting after leaving this thing running, even over the week. ... "
" ... Either way, this camera is an excellent buy due to its use of a capacitor instead of battery, it has a couple of different of mounting options, its ease of use and it has a GPS option. ... "
" ... The main factor why this has outlasted all the other cameras is because there is no battery pack. ... Its a simple thing but you have no idea how important this bit of information is because all battery pack cameras rely on the battery to provide at least 5 seconds of power until the camera finishes its saving and shutting down process. ...

" ... also I would highly recommend that you also purchase the available GPS sensor to attach, it will accurately provide location AND speed to which any incidents occur, which has already gotten me out of a "speeding" ticket in which the police officer actually registered the speed of the person beside me and misconstrued it as my speed. ... "
" ... I do not like that it requires a sperate device in order to have GPS ability but that was easy enough to install. ... "
" ... - The GPS location and speed tracking seems very accurate - I tested speed recording against my speedometer and a local speed sensing sign, and they all agreed I was going the same speed. ... "
" ... Love the fact that the GPS tracker is an option to purchase as I don't want to be tracked 24/7. ... "
" ... I also purchased the GPS & mounted this also. ... "
" ... And the fact it has a super capacitor and the GPS option which I purchased a week ago and it works very well and gets a great signal fast even in the garage. ... For $57 + $19 for the GPS option this was a great purchase! ... "
