    I got the same one for about $10 on some auction app. I've been using it for a couple days. I've been comparing different dash cams, and kind of shocked that it is as good as it is for $10. I honestly didn't expect for it to even turn on.

    Probably the best unboxing video I have ever seen. Very useful to show every menu option. Also, the other stuff you covered was interesting as well. Looks like you left nothing out. I came here, because I have a similarly looking model, but without IR LEDs and wanted to see if this cam is any good at night. Mine costs 12 times as much as this pile of junk and now I know why lol

    I just picked up that same camera sold under the Scosche brand name. I got it at Walmart in the US on clearance for $15. The firmware on yours is nicer with more options. The video on mine at 720P looks like your QVGA. I can't read a license plate unless I'm stopped right behind the car in front of me. I'd say you got a good deal.
    Do you have a web address that lists firmware? I'd like to try your firmware on my camera.

  • @FoxtrotGolfLima
    @FoxtrotGolfLima 4 года назад

    I have a camera that is the exact same on the outside but seems to be using a different program. The menus are different and none of the buttons are actually "OK" or "select," meaning I can't change any option. I've been using the product for about 9 months now. Night vision is horrendous and menus are inoperable using the 8 buttons (I can move up and down the options but not select or change anything). The plastic screen and casing are warped from the sun. The upper middle section of the screen has come off the rest of the device. I've cleaned the camera lens and my windshield but the glare is still very bad in night conditions. It is possible to get perfectly functional videos from this device but they are grainy/blurry and only acceptably smooth.
    I've taken my 32 GB SanDisk card from the device and watched 3x speed videos with desynced audio, though this issue might only be my computer and the windows 10 player software I'm using. I'm using a USB cable and Power Media Player now, however, and the videos are synced with the audio. The audio quality of this device is surprisingly high and I think this thing is well worth the $10 this person paid for this. The videos are in .avi format (I don't get a choice since I haven't figured out any way to change any options) and I can currently watch 332 videos on the aforementioned card. The most I would pay for this shamcorder is $25.
    I successfully used footage from this camera to prove I was not at fault for a collision on an interstate and I rate this product 5/10. It gets the job done, though only just. Difficult to use! Had the camera fly off the mount the first weeks I used this camera, but another problem with the mount is the fastening ring - it becomes brittle from the sun and will snap if left stressed inside a hot car.
    TL;DR: Carcam corder FHD 1080P may be used to prove innocence in a car collision; however, this product would be best for an area cooler than hot, sunny southern California. Video quality is acceptable except for at night, where any light source produces a lot of glare.

      This is dependent on what quality your dash cam is recording on.

    Wal-Marts in the states sell the exact same thing, only difference is the box. The Wal-Mart version starts out at around $20.00, and goes as high as around $25.00-$30.00. So I would say that it's a pretty fair price for an item like this one, being sold in a brick and mortar store.

    Instructions say charge for 30 before first initial use. I got the same thing and it works fine. It's by onn. $20 plus tax. Night time cant seem to pick stuff up.

    I got this camera and the thing won't stay on! Turn it on and it turns straight off (yes it's been left to charge) the only way it stays on is if its plugged in? Lost the receipt so cant even take it back

    I had loads of these and every single one hasn’t done the job. They freeze when the heating on or it too hot outside. However camera quality is pretty decent x

    For some reason mine turns on but there's like a white screen, and then it turns off and turns on again showing the same white screen. I have not used it because I have not had the chance to buy the SD card until today.
