TBH i wouldn't skimp out on a dash cam. I bought this on prime day...the price is pretty much the same... i might have saved $2?? Keep an eye on it, it might go cheaper on Black Friday, but i doubt it. Sales seem to be better weeks before Black Friday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So far i really like it. It wayyy better than my last one. The front is 4k the rear is 2.5k its worth it. it also connects to your phone through Wifi so you can see clips instantly (remember to turn off auto connect as there is no internets and your phone gets stupid without internets). My old Dash cam, you have to take the SD card out and transfer to a PC to see anything.

Thanks, kind of bound by the secret Santa rule of $50.

One year I spent more and got stink eye from everyone except the person I bought for. Lol

…then you’re not going to follow my suggestion of Blackvue.

Watch this video. It will help. I was shocked. I spent big money on a Blackvue for one car and a Thinkware for the other car.

Best to go on Amazon and pick on in that range. They all use the same Sony sensor for the most part.

That's what I found when doing research on dashcams. Ended up with the Viofo with rear cams.
