@@krane15 You would be surprised. I follow a youtube channel that only does dashcam reviews and a lot of good cameras are surprisingly inexpensive.

[@krane15]

@@Calendyr I get it. But there's s lot more to it than meets the eye. After all, you can go to a Home Depot and buy one hammer for $14, and another that look just like it (to most folks) for $45. Its not until you start using the hammers that your realize there's a big difference between the two, and that one is not just way more expensive because they want to rip you off.

[@grahamjohnson4702]

It didn't have fellow tint on all shots.

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

At the price I could live with that tint. This is a dash cam, not something you use for any personal filming. I don't think the tint would make it that much harder to identify persons or reconstruct the events of an accident and the resolution and sharpness was just fine for what it's intended for. And again, at that price I wouldn't expect perfection. Dependable function and usable quality is what you can hope for.

If you like the Apeman, but rear-facing is a concern, then just buy TWO of them and get hi-res color in both directions.

[@TheNiteNinja19]

And it'll still be cheaper than the two expensive ones

[@nowknow]

I was thinking that, the image quality was great but the video was choppy. It looked like the ape only filmed at 15fps while the more expensive one's were around 30fps. In a high speed accident you might not be able to actually tell what happened at low capture rate.

Just bought the Apeman C420D, which is a dual camera system at a cost of $59.99 (Amazon) but with a $12.00 coupon so roughly $48. The rear camera is actually a separate unit that wires to the main camera so you can mount it to the rear window to look out (rather than at your passengers).

Dude I just searched dashcam reviews, for a birthday gift, what a coincidence, you just uploaded! Your reviews have given me a good insight to make an inform decision. Best guy out there! 😜

[@MatthewMello]

Suction cup mounts suck unless you are always moving it from vehicle to vehicle. I bought a suction cup mount for my Viofo and used it once for a rental. I have never had a need to move any of my dashcams once installed.

[@gordon861]

Exactly, why the hell do you need to keep moving these things? If you have two cars buy a second camera for the second car, or a spare stick on mount. You want small unobtrusive that you can hide behind the internal mirror. My current dashcam was installed in my car three years ago and has been pretty much left alone except for the occasional format of the SDcard.

[@TheSlimCognito]

Not to mention, when it's hot out the suction cups have a tendency to slide, fall off and over time they leave horrid marks on the window that take some effort to remove. I prefer adhesive mounts for this reason. Sure the adhesive is just as hard to get off as the marks are, but you only do that once vs every 6 months with a suction cup.

[@richwood2741]

I love having the suction cup. When i go from one garbage truck to another it is so nice to be able to quickly take the camera with me. If i only had the need in one car i could see using the stick on. But in this litigious world i can not see being sued because i could not move my camera when i needed it.

[@MatthewMello]

@@richwood2741 As I said, you're moving it from vehicle to vehicle. I have 2 front and rear dashcams in both my vehicles, and they just stay there, behind the mirror, out of the way.

[@Oksana-1024]

Thanks James, you put so much effort into it! And it's pretty useful!

I have the aukey front and rear dash cam and love it. You'd be surprised how useful a rear camera is for catching hit and runs

[@jsccs1]

I have an FN7 and 100% agree. I always leave the screen display as rear cam only, and it's very handy tool while driving. It sees all my blind spots in its field of vision. I still do shoulder checks anyway, but certainly don't need to though.

@@jacobtohahn I am thinking of getting that one. Is it easy to take down and carry with you, instead of leaving in the hot car?

[@Dee_Just_Dee]

I've been using dashcams since 2013. My favourites right now are Viofo's A119 and A129 series. They have good A/V quality, a GPS module, and a reliable realtime clock battery. But probably most importantly: the build quality is good enough that my older one is still going strong after 4 years! A lot of ~$50 cams will compromise on build quality to get more video quality or features for their price point... and fall apart within a year or two.

[@sherryworkman7949]

He does such a great job making these videos. Very informative and does many tests, and admits when its his error

[@Fadamor]

I'm an Uber Driver, so I bought the Vantrue N2 Pro with the GPS base and the hardwire kit over a year ago. Rideshare drivers need the ability to record audio and video of the interior of the car for their own protection.The addition of the GPS base adds location and calculated speed information to the recording. The N2 Pro records both the exterior video and the interior video in separate 1080p resolution files, allowing you to provide excellent detail to rideshare companies/police/insurance adjusters/lawyers as the need arises. I've only needed to use it once (to great effect) when a driver rear-ended me and then tried to rabbit. Police got his insurance info from the owner and when I tried to file a claim, the agent on the phone started asking questions implying I may have done something to cause the accident. I stopped his questioning and mentioned I had dashcam video and would he like to see? He did, and after watching the video over KZbin his only reply was, "Yeah, we'll cover everything." That saved me a $1000 deductible expense (Uber's insurance carries a huge deductible.)

[@wooferjr169]

All you have to do is just say the license plate out loud and save the video. This method works and it's also important for your dashcam to have good audio. A downside to a 4K dashcam is that it will take up huge amounts of space on your SD card and might have shorter loops. Which can also wear your SD card much faster overtime.

[@artemismeow]

That helps in instances of hit and runs for sure, however what if you dont have any cam and the other party ran a red light.

I’ve just gotta say: VIOFO A119 v3 Swear by these dashcams.

Your headlight is dangerously low. It's needs to aimed correctly.

[@chrisbbc09]

Just needs some more headlight fluid

Thank You for testing the products. I appreciate it very much.

[@hyrenaj2888]

Clicked this thinking it was the old review and it's a new one! I've been waiting for a follow up with some decent yet reasonably priced ones!

[@BlakeBlackstone]

I like the Kingslim the best. I hope you can give an update on the audio.

[@KazuyaYuza]

The kingslim loooks like the best option in general of all 4.

[@krane15]

Second behind Rexing actually.

The Rexing

[@MegaSnow121]

Thank you for great a review of dash cams! It has really helped me out. We are going on a road trip this year, so we wanted a dash cam. I came upon your review, and researched a few dash cams plus all five from your review. I decided to go with the Kingslim . I like that it has GPS, good picture quality, black and white rear facing cam, a suction holder, and a 32 GB mini SD card. The sound quality is a concern, but not enough to prevent my trying this dash cam out.

[@ThriftyAV]

I'm currently shopping for a Dash Cam, so this video was timely and useful!

[@shawnparker7415]

I think the winner was Rex, King close second

[@Cimlite]

It's 4x more expensive than the Apeman though. And the name is at least 10x less interesting too.

[@Zenkai76]

I own a rexing for over 4 years now, it's 1080p. I love the 3M tape mounting, it doesn't fall of, I have videos on my channel that I have put up. I bought my wife the 4k version. I am not a fan of suction cup mounting because they fall off with temp changes

[@z185284]

As always, what I use in my commercial vehicles and works the best of any I’ve ever seen; VIOFO A119v3 It’s cheap, works better than most of these, and is the budget camera all the dashcam reviewers recommend. Wish I had seen this reviewed.

[@SMMUNIZ]

Thank you for taking your time doing that

[@thehalloweenenthusiast]

This was by far the BEST review of four different dash cams at once! It’s extremely difficult to find the “Best” one! Video quality, audio and SD placement were my worries to begin with. By far the best review of Dash Cams! Please compare more in the future.

[@Freakinreviews]

Thank you Halloween Guy! I really appreciate it.

[@thehalloweenenthusiast]

@@Freakinreviews You’re welcome! Also, what micro SD card did you use in the Kingslim? Or one that you’d highly recommend? I actually bought the Kingslim after the review. It was hard to choose one though!

Amazon has become Alibaba, a Chinese dollar store! Ever hear of those stupid brand names before? Of course not!

[@googlesucks3163]

And? All the brands you hear of are made in China as well. Lmfao

[@mtjsrc1]

@@googlesucks3163 Feel better?

[@googlesucks3163]

@@mtjsrc1 great like always. Thanks for asking

[@MrRaja]

Don't worry they are passing a bill that requires sellers to test their product with a american licensed firm and have it do quality check and control on it.

[@3sgteyota]

Try taiwan or south korean products instead.

[@seang3698]

The Vantrue is still king.

[@frenchpagarigan749]

thanks man. this video saves me time in choosing dashcam.

[@willg7885]

Love the honesty and full test.. can you do another one on dash cams
