Nextbase 322gw dash cam full set up & review app setup+1080p footage

Bought this camera after watching your review and never looked back. Excellent review, so thank you!

[@MADMODS]

So glad it helped someone out.

Had this hardwire fitted by my Skoda dealer,really appreciate this tutorial,I think trying to sort out the technology on my car has frazzled what's left of my brain.I think the best thing to do is have a lie down and get my son to watch this video and he can set it up. Your a good man 😅

[@lorrainesulman2057]

I had this fitted but didn't get the shop to show me how to use it for reasons I won't bore you with. Found this video really helpful so that you very much.

[@dashcamarmagh]

The reason tje footage looks so bad is because the dash cam makes 2 of the same files, one is high resolution and one is low res. This is for WiFi transfers to your device. If you want the full quality I recommend taking the sd card out and watching the full res videos with your computer

[@andwelovearpsychopat7820]

Hi mate how do you load the sd card into a macbook or other PC's...Michael.

[@dashcamarmagh]

@@andwelovearpsychopat7820 remove the micro SD card and put it into a micro sd to sd adapter, this usually comes with a micro sd card, put that in your computers sd card slot or for newer macbooks you need an sd card dongle and thats it

[@andwelovearpsychopat7820]

yes I have the adapter, but I will need a MacBook thunder bolt thingy, its my birthday coming up someone can get me it.

Excellent review 5*

[@David84916]

Great Video / Review, i just Bought a Few days Ago, Brilliant Dashcam

[@keptLV]

Its better to point the camera little bit downwards, so there is less sky in the scene. Its the same as if you look towards a bright object, it would be hard to see ehats next to it. And then, if a crash happens it will happen in within the close distance where the number plate will be perfectly visible. Bought the same dash cam not long ago and I have no issues with it reading the number plates from the distance where you mentioned its hard. Just try adjusting the angle of the camera, as its less likely that a plane would crash into you :)) Thanks for the video.

[@MADMODS]

Good tip thanks

[@tonygonemad1984]

That the helpful … thanks ✨👍🏻

[@andyrantshumanphilosopher7571]

Got and set my own up today. Put a 128gb High speed sd card in it. designed for 4k recording. accepts it fine and stores video and pictures and the computer can access it through the cam. So you arent limited in size to 32.

[@avtandil1971]

Really helpful. Thank you Sir.

[@kieranpower5916]

good video. help me out big time, cheers,

[@godzuks]

Thanks for upload, see u had problem with app, lots of people say its usless and transfering to your mobile is painfully slow

[@MADMODS]

Yes the app is not the best but do you really need it. I would just remove the card to copy the files myself.

[@hmikey5680]

Great review but what about the installation? Can I just plug it into the cigarette lighter thing in my car and good to go?

[@MADMODS]

yes it just plugs into the 12v scocket and sucker or sticker to attach it to the windscreen.👍

[@hmikey5680]

@@MADMODS great thanks. Why does Halfords charge quite a lot for installation then I mean do you know what the difference is?

[@MADMODS]

it's a hard wire install so no cables showing and wired into your fuse box leaving the 12v scocket free and camera always recording.

Top review

[@t5jerry]

i realise you may have been returning this dashcam to halford`s for a refund, but by leaving the protective screen on the REAR of the camera, this prevented the capacitive buttons on the rear of the camera from working correctly, hence "some" viewers may have thought that because the buttons were not responding correctly, this could have put them off a potential purchase of this item, would it not have been easier to have removed the screen protector, shot your video and then replaced it? great informative video by the way 😁

[@jamessteele1676]

Can you explain how it records please

[@jp5210]

How does the g sensor actually work have one of these looking to set it up . Does it detect movement or just if someone hits your car. ?

[@MADMODS]

just if someone hits the car. you can set it to time laps for longer recording when parked.

[@erniethecat198]

How do you format the new screen card?

[@FINDITFIXITRESTOREITBUILDIT]

put it in the camra go to video settings and find format sd card tap on that a few seconds later it will be formatted.

Thanks for showing me how crap the app is and what looks like a complete pain in the arse, not to mention saving me a few quid by not buying one!

[@majidhussain8783]

Does this connect to your mobile wifi or your bluetooth?

[@MADMODS]

WiFi on the phone set up through the app.

[@quentinbush]

Evidently this camera records in high resolution but initial downloads are low res for speed like you demonstrated. If you want to use it, it can be downloaded high resolution (not mentioned) but this takes a while longer but the quality is very good. The bloke in Halfords set mine up, I didn't realise till I got home Nextbase recommend initial 2 hours charging hense the additional usb cable. Having just bought this camera and watching different reviews. I note you haven't mentioned anything about suitable memory cards. My bit of playing with it and I have noticed the recording actually freezes after a few minutes. My card says 32gb U3, one assumes this isn't fast enough. I dare say experimenting with different speed cards will cure this.

[@ryanw8510]

I use a nextbase in my work van,not sure on the model.Do you know if you can retrieve the audio if it hasn't been recording?

[@FINDITFIXITRESTOREITBUILDIT]

if it's on mute then It doesn't record audio at all so no it can't be played back after.

[@halochamppp]

My SD card says it is full but there is only a 500mb video on there (32GB card) there is footage i need to look at but again there is only on video on there that was recorded days ago... please help! :/

does it have timelapse?

[@stephenwelch757]

My dash cam is saying insert SD card even there is one in. I have been told to install firmware. Is it possible you can show how to do this please?

[@offcuts4146]

Got this about 2 months ago awaiting a replacement keeps freezing and turning off even when using nextbase sd card. Hope replacement works coz when it does work its good

[@Jessw_1996]

Mine does the same just get your money back as the company charge you for postage after 1 year . And if you buy from halfords and don’t get it installed with them they are not going to help you . I have been having this trouble .

[@barrymacpherson]

Which dashcam would you recommend for best quality downloads and that can read number plates better?

[@MADMODS]

622gw is the best regards to quality footage if you want to view it tho your best bet is to put the sd card in a pc as trying to view it on the app takes a very long time due to it being 4k.

[@uyiekpenfrancis1870]

Hi Dear , Would you tell us if we can track the car with the gps included in the cam? Thank you so much for your answer

no it's not a tracking device. the gps is just for speed and location on the video footage.

@@FINDITFIXITRESTOREITBUILDIT what about placing a smartphone in the caddy with a sim cart? Lol seriously would it work?

[@martinshelley1849]

What method did you use to take the video from the memory card? I,m guessing bluetooth or wifi? I would also question if you actually had it in 1080p as I have just watched another video where the quality is a million times better than this. And yes it was the same dash cam.

[@MADMODS]

I took the memory card out of the dash cam and uploaded the footage. It was definitely recorded in 1080p.

[@phil5743]

Are you sure you didn't copy the low quality file from the memory card as by default there are 2 versions of each file. I did this when I first got my 522GW and only realised afterwards. Your footage looks exactly like the low quality version looked on mine.

[@shevchenko7cfc941]

What is the battery life on these? Do I need to have it plugged in the whole time? I'd hate to have a giant cord hanging down the entire time. I've recently bought a new car and wouldn't be sure how to hide the cord on my own

Thay dont last long at all. You can get it hard wired form most car audio shops or have a go yourself.

no any memory card will be fine up to a 32gb but get a good card as this is the most important part in retrieving your footage in the case of a accident.

no has nothing to do with your phone and data. the app just connects to your phone and camra for video viewing, and set up.

Hello there how do you record video continuously for long period of time in a single file (12 hrs driving) ? It says video length is max 3 mins that means it will be multiple videos right
