Perfect and complete information in 7 minutes. Thank you for your video.

I love the best part. So satisfying 😁

[@jo-annharvie9411]

Thank you. You explained the installation much better than the leaflet (a different brand of dash cam).

My rear backup camera doesn’t work.. I buy it from eBay.. is there any solution.. ? Please let me know

[@IronBalls007]

Thx for this video! The nice thing is that I drive the exact same car (Honda Civic '07) and now i know this cam i ordered will fit perfectly :)

[@Mywk]

Just did a review and walk-through for my newest cam! Regarding the price the one from this video is still the most cost-effective around. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJTIoXqVjLiUfM0

Hallo, thank you for the review, the best! I want to connect the Rear Camera in my Nissan Micra, you maybe know about witch cable can connect it (I mean ..to the back/reverse lights) ..witch color? I don´t got the Manual... and don´t find in Internet. Thanks in advance! BR.

[@Fabio-wz3yg]

It was useful video thanks. Will the camera delete old footage automatically and start new recording if i leave the recording always on ?

[@megasource1981]

Can you tell me if this camera actually records all three lenses at the same time regardless of what image you choose to display on the main screen and also does the reverse camera record a true image or is it a mirrored image as in reads a registration plate as it is and not as a mirrored image (back to front), also how do you access all three images recorded when connected to a laptop via the sd card? Many thanks

[@thomasmargis9808]

The battery is just there for saving the video file, if the power supply is interupted. Its not made for long term use. So it can not "hold a charge" because its just that small! But they say that in the discription...

[@juderusselllaureta7062]

How did you install the rear camera? Mine is not working. Thaanks

[@gnomo6666]

Great job. I would like to see you parking the car to understand the value of the rear camera. Overall the camera seems to have a decent recording quality at 1080p.

[@justice4ever264]

Can i use the car light charger and keep the camera recorder going when car is not moving, off and parked . i want to record around my car for vandalism , theft and etc. while im not arrond and my car is parked. any idea whats the best mood n option to use please? thanks

[@Amanda-ju8xo]

Is it possible to disassemble this model? There are no screws and my memory card is jammed in the slot

[@RedmiNote-yv4my]

Hi, I have the same camera but unfortunately when I reverse I can't make the image on full screen...how can I make it? Is it a special option how to activate it? Thank you

[@Doctorhristov]

hello looking to ask if try the overhang motion detector option at the car

[@michaelmeisman1672]

If I hook up a higher resolution camera for the rear (back up) camera will it record in the higher resolution? 480P is just no enough. 720p would be fine but 480 is not acceptable.

[@mrsaminah33]

Hay I just got this today not installed yet wanted to if is there a app u can do to get the footage or do I need to take the sd card out and put in pc thanks

[@em3126]

how many days can it record video for? example please, does it overrwright itself? does it record only one camera at a time

I have one coming tomorrow! Is this a good model to use for Uber drivers?

So it will record simultaneously from 3 camera ? or one at time?

The red wire that connects to the reverse camera has a loose end. Where does that end of the red wire connect?

Can I only use the front camera? I have no use for the rear camera. If I don't hook up the rear camera,it will just work with front only?

Thank you for the review. It helped me determine if I would buy it. 👍🏾

[@spanl928]

Did you end up buy it

[@Johnny_the_5]

Yes I did. Works good enough for a budget. The only things I don't like is the MOV video format (but that can be converted from a computer), and the battery sucks. Battery only last about 20 minutes, but should be plugged in at all times anyway.

[@spanl928]

Cool. How about the video? Does it come out clear? And does it record the front and back at the same time?

As promised, a newer DVR review is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJTIoXqVjLiUfM0 *Important: In 4 years a lot has changed and I cannot in good faith say this camera is good anymore, not for the price anyway. I'd rather pay a bit more for a Viofo and have something truly reliable (which I did do, just never got to review it, plenty of reviews on the model I'm using, just search for Viofo a129).

Whenever i feel like i want to shoot Video of both the Front doors these cameras have Option to Shoot outside at any time like a Vlogger and do not want to shoot video of (Front and inside the Rear Room) , then the SKYBLUESEA B2W & CAMSONIC ULTRA Z 2 & 3 Dash Cam Benefits if a person want to shoot a video outside the front doors sides Left & Right , would be easy to change the direction to record Multiple Angles of both the Cams accordingly , option to Rotate , as they Rotates 180 degrees .

How do still like this camera still? Does it hold up over time in the summer heat? Does it record all 3 dash cams at the same time?

[@Mywk]

Hey, I no longer have this camera, replaced it with an Android one. You can only record with two cameras simultaneously, also note that once the sd-card is full it will start re-writing the old videos. For a 30 bucks camera it still does its job quite well!

You need to choose which 2 of the 3 cameras that are showing on the screen at one time.. you cannot record all 3 cameras at the same time.

​@@sassysunflower On the computer I'm using the "Media Player Classic" or MPC-HC and you can speed up/slow down the videos easily. On the camera I have no idea what could be causing the issue, it could be that the SD-card is not class 10 and is unable to record all of the frames!

I thought that the whole point of dash cams, both cheap and expensive is that they run off the car's power, either hard-wired or through the cigarette port. They're not built to run for hours, hence why they are so small.
