I just picked up one of these from Temu and was thinking it was not going to be that great considering I only paid $111 for the 3-camera model m550 pro. I feel much better now after watching your video you made it look really easy to install and setup! I appreciate you taking the time to share this information as I’m sure it’ll make my install go 10X smoother than had I tried to do it before watching your video… I like how you showed how to navigate through the different settings in order to get it up and running and for the money it’s going to be hard to beat as most of the other 3 channel ones I saw on Temu would say 1080 HD but once you get to the specs you discover that the front is 1080 and the inside and rear are 480 🙄! Pretty much making them useless and a waste of time to install… Anyways, I just wanted to let you know I appreciate your video and I will take the time to check out your other ones now too 👍
Thanks for the comment! It's nice to know some of my videos help others. That's the main reason my wife and I started the channel. We both have day jobs and this is our hobby. It's fun for us. Best of luck to you and I hope the AZDOME dash camera works out for you!
thanks for the detailed explanation around all the parts, the sd card, etc. Really helpful. I was just wondering which part disconnects, which part folds, where was the sd card etc...
Hi, I really hope you can help me. I have recently bought an Azdome M550 Pro and find that I cant set my correct GMT. My GMT is not a whole number for example +9:30 and the cam cant do it, so it is always showing the wrong time. Have updated to the latest firmware to no avail. I have spoken to someone at Azdome, and they claim that they only offer GMT in whole numbers, (which is ridiculous), but I have found a users manual online which shows GMT times with half intervals. Can anyone help please?!?
Fantastic video, wonderful detail. 👏 Finally, a video of someone who set up the camera in an SUV. May I recommend that you update your video title to include SUV because I've searched everywhere on RUclips, and for SEO there aren't any videos of people setting up the camera for SUVs until I found yours. Majority of the videos are sedans. For example, your video title would say: "Easy To Install & Setup for SUV!!! AZDOME M550 Dash Cam Unboxing, Install & Review" Let's help other SUV owners who purchased this camera find your video 😃 You don't have to put the hashtag in the title of the video, by the way, because its already in the video description. Much love! ❤
Hello Sir. Thanks for the review. I just bought this dash cam 5 days ago and it's great but I have one problem that I couldn't figure out. Actually it's not a problem. Probably some settings I just couldn't see. I noticed you have the interior cam video also inverted (mirrored). In the footage you look like driving on the wrong side. I have the same problem and couldn't find how to fix this. If you noticed this also and found a way to fix it please let me know. Thanks again.
Great question! I tried to go into Video Settings, then Rear Mirror and select "No". Before this I'd selected "Yes". If that doesn't fix it, then I'm not sure what does. Best of luck to you!
Thanks for the comment! No, there should be no problem installing the rear camera inside the car. That's what I did during this video. It worked fine for me. Appreciate that you watched the video! Best of luck to you!!!
I hooked mine up via the hardwiring kit, turned on parking mode to time lapse 1fps, however when I go back into the files there are no parking videos saved for some reason.
Thanks for the comment. Sorry about that. I’d like to help you, but I’m not familiar with installing hardwire kits. I’ve never installed one so I have no history with them.
Hello. The AZDOME M550 dashcam is terrible for parking mode, the wire kit is installed in the fuse box and the motion recording option works, but I did several tests on the G sensor (for accidents) and the dashcam has some serious flaws. It doesn't change or save the crash (collision detection) and there is no warning letting us know that there is an incident when you return to the car and start it! If the vehicle owner is not attentive, the accident will go unnoticed. You will have to watch all the movement recordings for days in a row to try to find out if the AZDOME M550 recorded anything! When the car is moving, the recording works, the dashcam has a serious failure to record/change, as indicated in the manual, the recordings are due to knocks if the car is parked. 😮😮
Thanks for the comment! Appreciate your insight and the research you put into your comment. I'm sure that took a lot of time and effort. I've never used the 24HR Parking Mode on any of my Dash Cameras so I'm not well versed in that capability at all. With that said, I've also never installed a dash cam's hard wire kit. Hopefully there is some more commenting on this subject. It is very interesting. I appreciate that you watched my video!!!
Mine keeps restarting idk how to fix this I can’t have all 3 cameras on at all idk why it keeps restarting it literally only restarts when the back camera is connected doe…
Thanks for the comment! My best advice to you is to perform a factory reset. From the User's Manual, it states to perform a factory reset, (1) Keep the camera plugged in. (2) Please reset your camera on the menu or press the RESET button (located at the bottom of the main unit) ONCE with a pen’s tip or a paper clip. If that doesn't work, you can try updating the firmware to see if this fixes the issue. If it still doesn’t work, then please CONTACT AZDOME's customer service. Best of luck to you!
@@SynixWired Interesting. Was it not plugged in all the way for some reason? I'm just curious as that does happen sometimes but its rare. The main thing is "Congratulations" on getting it to work properly!!! Best of luck to you!!!
Thanks for the comment! This is a first heard for me. The dash cam unit (unless you have it hard wired) should be self contained and shouldn't interfere with anything else in the car. Electromagnetism is a strange thing though, so just about anything can happen. My only suggestion would be to move the dash cam to another area on your window and see if that helps. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Best of luck to you!
Thanks for the comment! I’m not sure if the REDTIGER F7N line of dash cams have cabin facing cameras or not, but IMHO, from all the dash cams I’ve reviewed and owned, the F7N line has had the best camera resolution recorded on microSD card that I’ve seen. Best of luck to you!!!
Thanks for the comment and question! From what I’ve read on the interweb, the changes from the M550 to the M550 Pro are: 1. They replaced the HDMI connector of cabin camera with a USB-C connector, reducing the issue of cabin camera not being accessible to the host. 2. The rear camera is designed differently as the M550 Pro’s rear camera swivels and the M550 Rear camera I believe can only maneuver up and down. 3. I’m not positive about this, but M550 Pro touts that they’ve upgraded their WiFi from 2.4GHz to 5.8GHz, providing more stable and faster connection speeds to the mobile phone App. But I've also read that the M550 has 5GHz WiFi so there is some confusion here. Best of luck to you and I appreciate that you watched the video!!!
Hi, very detailed video, you are doing a great job! I'm from Peru, and I'm searching for a dash cam, can this M550 or M550 pro be compared with the Vantrue N4 pro? 'cause the price difference is huge.
Thanks for the comment! After watching some videos of the Vantrue N4 Pro, I believe one difference is the video quality in the Vantrue N4 Pro is better than the video quality in the M550 Pro. That's the main difference I can see. Hope that helps! Appreciate that you watched the video!
If you go into the "Menu", then click over to "Stamp", you have options in there to uncheck Time, GPS watermark, Speed Stamp, and Logo to turn all of that off. Let me know if that works. Best of luck to you!!!
It's not working ! I saw if I turn off wi fi , it disapear, it's only method. It sucks because if WiFi is on , anyone who get in into my car can see the detalis on the camera screen and can connect to my camera 😁
