Rexing V5 Modular 4k Dash Cam Review and Sample Footage

[@mweidner311]

Nice video dude! Gave me all the info I needed to pull the trigger on two of these for my wife and I. Thanks for the solid review 🍻

[@Magcheck]

I have the V5 arriving today. Bought it because it holds power with capacitors instead of LiPo batteries and the manufacturer says the electronics are protected up to a little greater than 170 degrees F. That was the selling point for me here in southern Arizona where it gets pretty freakin hot in the summer months.

[@cginwala]

Thank you. I have 2 questions if you are already using this v5 camera. How long is the main camera cigarette lighter power cable? And can we move main camera lens to left or light slightly to adjust the front view?

[@620john620]

Check out the Amazon review for this cam. A reviewer suggests using two round rare earth magnets to mount it to the windshield. One affixed to the windshield with the 3m tape, one affixed to the camera shoe. Easy on off. He has a video. Great idea.

[@ericjones363]

Do you have the link?

[@BrianMorearty]

Thank you for explaining all this! I just got this dash cam and the unit itself seems nice but the manual is pathetic. Now I understand how to use this thing thanks to you.

Nice review and am the 1000 viewer 🙌

[@TheSlacker64]

Dude, Your video is more instructive than the manual that comes with it. Got this for Christmas (truck driver) was frustrated trying to navigate. Pro at it now. Have you have a problem with keeping or getting the cam to power up when not plugged in? It acts as if theres no internal battery, even though theres a charging icon on the screen. Thanks again for an awesome video!

Excellent review. I just bought one. I only wish there wasn’t the long and short holds; I just find that confusing. I’ve watched your video twice to understand, but I guess I’m going to have to play with the camera once it arrives.

[@akqjtn]

It does have a bit of a learning curve, in the name of saving a few dollars. At the end, you'll find that you will only use a few of the features anyways. At least I did...

[@marksd5650]

@@akqjtn Thank you again, such a clear explanation, makes me wonder if you’re a teacher. Many can’t offer clear explanations as you’ve done here.

[@GuitarheroWWEduh]

Does the P on the right side of the camera indicate that the hardwire parking mode is on? I tried to hardwire it earlier today and I don’t know if I did it correctly for my 2014 Chevy Camaro after playing around with the fuses… but there is a P on the right side of the screen with a white box around it, I wasn’t sure if I had it correctly or not… thank you!

[@Jvallaa93]

Are there two types of Rexing v5 versions? This one seems newer even tho it probably came out first. Main differences are the Rexing logo under the screen and the interior cam having a little sensor on the bottom. But also the menu screen is different it’s blue. The one I bought is called the Rexing v5 plus

[@stevewalters6403]

Great review. Will the cam automatically turn on / off when the vehicle is turned on / off? I don't want to hit the on button on the cam every time I get in the car. Thx.

[@caroldavidson4739]

Hi. Great video! I just had my V5 installed last week. I have noticed it periodically says completed while I am driving. I’m not sure why. Do you know the reason?

[@toryyt4256]

I bought one today but the box says v5 plus and that it has 3-channel recoding. Is it a newer model with the ability to record with all 3 cameras at the same time?

Really well made review. With the v5, is there an option to allow continuous recording? Once the card is full, it'll overwrite? Not the standard 1-3 minute loop recording. Thanks

[@SantistaUSA]

Billy no, you can't do that.

[@c405b]

Great video, thanks very much. For weeks I've been looking at different dashcams and it's hard to find info like what's included in your video. I didn't know that the front facing camera lense is adjustable, great to see that in your video, and I'm particularly interested in whether the interior cam lense is adjustable so if I get stopped by police I can cover the driver's window area. That's the only bit of info missing from your video. I had already ordered this dashcam so it was nice to see a primer about it. Thanks again, and can that interior camera lense rotate to view the entire driver's window?

I bought the v5 plus from best buy a few days ago, and just installed it yesterday. I already had the hardwired kit installed from my V3 plus. My settings menu and on screen display look different, I think mines has a different firmware since it's a 3ch. However, loop recording is non existent in the settings. GPS and speedometer does not work, even though it shows strong signals on the GPS status screen. Parking monitor is lackluster, as there are still no options to change recording time. With the hardwired installed, the camera constantly stays on. If I swap the fuse positions, it will turn on and off with the ignition, but no parking monitor activation even if I purposely bump the unit with my hand or shake the car. Very frustrating to buy something with advertised functions, but are not even present at all.

[@89nikehead]

Same problem here. If you find any info regarding this please chime in

[@Rock_Reggae_Riff]

@@89nikehead Will do. I've been in email contact with customer service back and forth. They're sending me a hardwired kit, and I've already told them that I have 2, but still insisted on sending it.

[@lightweaverx4381]

I wish at least one of these reviews gave more attention to video quality of the camera and its ability to capture license plates from a distance.

[@akqjtn]

License plates from a distance is an incredibly tall order for a dashcam. I can probably mount my $2500 camera to a mount and use it as a dashcam and I wouldn't expect perfection. I've done tests with dash cams and regular cameras and can tell you that under a lot of circumstances the license plate will not be clear, unless you got a 4k dash cam with a large sensor that recorded clearly at 120fps and that is impossible at this price range.

The cabin camera is garbage (as you can see with your purple image at 12:52 ). I have the same issue and Rexing says it's normal. It's the only cabin camera I have seen with this issue. The IR should switch off when not necessary (such as during the day) to provide the real colors. Even at night the coloring of the video is off. It doesn't switch to black and white. Black material shows as purple.

Excellent review! 5:35 - so, no recording whatsoever on the third camera? That is crazy! I've had my Rexing V1LG dual dash cam since 2017 and although I'm happy with it, I wanted to upgrade so I can also include the cabin camera (and, record). 7:10 - With the parking monitor feature, why the need for the hardwire kit? What if you drive a GM (or, other) vehicle where the power is always on/available even when the engine isn't on? Sounds like a money grab to me.

[@akqjtn]

Hi, you can record on the cabin camera OR the rear camera, but not both at once. As far as the hardwire kit, it makes it so that you don't have to worry about your battery dying. You don't want to drive to work one day and not be able to start your car because the dash cam was draining juice from the battery the whole time. The hardwire kit will only allow the battery to drop to a certain level before it cuts off power to the dash cam, allowing you to always be able to start your car.
