1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,240
There's two things we can all agree on about dash cams. [music]

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,960
First is that they are absolutely necessary if you've ever been in or

3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:12,880
witnessed an accident, which statistically [music] speaking is you

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:17,120
and everyone you know. The second is that regardless of the price, they all

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:20,640
look pretty terrible. Even when I picked a winner 3 years ago, there were

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:25,760
absolutely edge cases where [music] it clearly fell short. And I know short.

7
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:30,200
But, technology marches ever onward, right? So, we bought today's

8
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:34,880
best-selling and most highly reviewed dash cams [music] to see if finally I

9
00:00:32,599 --> 00:00:37,760
can be satisfied. Are there features other than image quality that'll make a

10
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,680
difference to our top choice? Do you basically get what you pay for or are

11
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:48,760
there some diamonds in the rough? And how is it that this one costs 30 times

12
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:51,600
as much as this one? So many questions.

13
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:57,680
Like, how will I segue to our sponsor? Like this.

14
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:59,920
Previously on The Coding Chronicles.

15
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:04,360
Come with me. Where am I? In the realm OF BOOT CAMP.

16
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:09,160
WEB DEVELOPMENT. >> THAT'S THE SKILL THAT'S GOING TO land me a high-paying job, right?

17
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:14,400
Watch to the end for a new episode.

18
00:01:20,565 --> 00:01:27,200
>> [music] >> As you might expect, deploying 10 dash

19
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:31,360
cameras at once for a review means we needed a large windshield and [music] a

20
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:36,440
good power source. We settled on our work truck, a Ford F-150 with a Sabrent

21
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:40,880
16-in-1 USB hub plugged into a Jackery Explorer 2000 Pro. [music] Due to the

22
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:46,000
long wiring runs and the importance of not losing power to any of our cameras,

23
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:50,480
we used nine of our new 4-meter LTT cables, available now at lttstore.com.

24
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:54,880
Now, it is worth noting that some of our dash cams included additional rear or

25
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:59,400
interior cameras for multi-channel operation. These can be super handy for

26
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:03,440
rear-enders and passenger-related incidents. However, they're always lower

27
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:06,840
resolution than the front camera, so our image quality comparisons are going to

28
00:02:05,106 --> 00:02:13,680
[music] focus on the primary. With that out of the way, our first three contestants are oh lordy.

29
00:02:10,399 --> 00:02:13,680
How am I supposed to pronounce this?

30
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:20,840
Maybe it doesn't matter. All three are attractively priced around $50 to $100

31
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:24,800
on promo, so I think I can forgive them for being a little lighter on the

32
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:29,160
features and a little higher on the jank and weird names. Like this box.

33
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:32,680
To YI VIM's credit, they do at least have a website, but the box for their

34
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:38,120
two-channel camera system includes instructions that appear to be for a

35
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:39,959
completely different brand. Janwold.

36
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:44,959
Stepping up a little bit in price, we get the three-channel Subcon. Aside from

37
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:49,240
an additional camera, its main standout feature is the inclusion of HDR or high

38
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:54,080
dynamic range, but at this price using a low-tier image

39
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:56,840
sensor, it may be combining multiple exposures to better capture the

40
00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:02,720
brightest and darkest parts of the scene, but it's unlikely to be doing so

41
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,400
well. Finally, there's the four-channel

42
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:09,800
I really Its main claim to fame is lots and lots of cameras. Front, back, and two of

43
00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:13,959
these funky flexible ones that can pan and tilt 180°.

44
00:03:11,959 --> 00:03:16,720
Since the main unit is so wide, we had to mount it a little lower on the

45
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,480
windshield, but for anyone who isn't running 10 dash cams, that probably

46
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:25,200
won't be a problem. It's the first to include Wi-Fi, and it also ships with a

47
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:29,680
128 gig card helping propel it to the fourth best-selling dash cam on Amazon.

48
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:36,760
If only that were an indication of quality. It claims to have WDR, but dash

49
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:41,320
cam manufacturers use terms like HDR and WDR pretty loosely. So, why don't we

50
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:46,400
talk about what they mean? Newer tech, like Sony's Clear HDR on their Starvis 2

51
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:50,480
sensors, captures two different images, one high gain and one low gain for

52
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:54,960
post-processing, which can add a little bit of noise and clarity loss, but can

53
00:03:52,600 --> 00:04:00,320
produce an overall more detailed image. The Starvis 2 also supports digital

54
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:02,920
overlap HDR, which uses sequential short

55
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:05,720
and then long exposures, which can add motion blur. Which of these

56
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:10,800
implementations gets used can significantly affect quality, and we've

57
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:15,240
also found cases where HDR claims are made with

58
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:19,280
absolutely no evidence of them doing either of those things.

59
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:24,000
Then there's WDR. In theory, it performs the same function as HDR using hardware

60
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:29,000
and software to capture and combine multiple near simultaneous exposures for

61
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:32,680
a more balanced image. This is to help preserve detail in both the highlights

62
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:38,120
and in the shadows. However, many vendors use digital WDR, a cheaper, less

63
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:42,120
effective solution that uses only software to adjust shadows and

64
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:47,080
highlights. So, we're not going to pay too much attention to these feature claims

65
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:52,280
because real-world image quality is what matters. Let's take a look. All three of

66
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:54,560
our under $100 cameras are pretty much equal at reading license plates in

67
00:04:53,520 --> 00:05:00,960
motion. Equally bad. If I had to choose one,

68
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:05,200
maybe the IV has the better overall image quality. The sky isn't quite as

69
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:09,200
overexposed, and the power lines are more visible here. The Subcon manages a

70
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,800
pretty pleasing image with a vibrant blue sky and green grass, and they all

71
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:16,800
look pretty equal to me for the legibility of the van's letters here.

72
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:20,953
Moving on to twilight, the IV has the best static focus with the 198 sign

73
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:26,400
being the most clear out of the three. [music] But, while the Yian Vim's lack of even

74
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:30,320
pretend HDR results in the sky being darker than the other two, it comes out

75
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:34,120
ahead on the readability of the truck's letters here when it drives by, and

76
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:37,520
that's because of its higher 30 FPS capture. The Subcon, meanwhile, is

77
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:41,560
unremarkable [music] in our twilight test. Moving on to nighttime, this

78
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:45,600
footage is very interesting. Again, the Yian Vim with its higher frame rate wins

79
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:50,480
the day with the clearest image. The 151.9 price on the street sign is more

80
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:55,040
legible than the others. And as for the Sub Con, it's definitely the loser here

81
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:59,080
with out of focus and blurry video. After testing all the lower tier and

82
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:02,800
cheaper cameras then, our top pick kind of depends on your needs. For capturing

83
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:07,480
motion video, we recommend the YI Smart Dash Cam. However, if your main priority

84
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:11,400
is parking surveillance mode, the AUKEY is substantially more expensive, but

85
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:16,400
likely a better fit recording with merely 360° coverage. Both use a sticker

86
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,760
style mount though, and if you prefer a reusable suction cup, then the Sub Con

87
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:23,520
might stand out for that reason. Realistically, none of them wowed me

88
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:27,560
though, raising the question, could I just get the basic functionality

89
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:33,280
that I need for less? Let's find out by tightening our budget

90
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:34,480
and taking a look at the $19 Meikuails

91
00:06:33,280 --> 00:06:39,360
dash cam. It's >> [music] >> not especially well reviewed. It's not

92
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,919
especially popular. But 19 bucks is 19 bucks. So, if this thing is any good, we

93
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:47,320
could save our viewers anywhere from three to four happy meals. Unfortunately, it's not [music] good.

94
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:54,919
The cheap plastic mount broke before we could even install it, and the packaging is so generic that it literally says

95
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:57,280
brand on it. What the hell is 1296p?

96
00:06:54,919 --> 00:07:00,720
As for the image quality, ooh, I mean, I know it's cheap, but like

97
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:05,000
remember how there was text on the side of this van here? And this is our

98
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:09,240
daylight clip. Moving on to twilight, it's even worse. That doesn't sparkle at

99
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:13,080
all. As for night time, no wonder they call it brand.

100
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:17,120
In conclusion, there's a minimum floor for what you should probably spend on a

101
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:23,120
dash cam. But is there a maximum? Let's juice up our budget and see if this trio

102
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:25,760
of 4K cameras is worth the extra money

103
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:28,320
or not? Extra money? See, in theory, [music]

104
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:33,480
these are priced anywhere from $100 to $200, but all of them were available on

105
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:37,195
a discount, putting them pretty much in direct competition with the AUKEY. Bad

106
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:43,745
news for the AUKEY, >> [music] >> because instead of mystery meat image sensors, all of our next tier cameras

107
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:48,880
boast a Sony STARVIS 2 sensor. With that [music] said, not all STARVIS 2's are

108
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:54,600
made equal. So, it's kind of like saying a gaming PC uses GeForce.

109
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:56,320
Which one? Well, Red Tiger wouldn't tell

110
00:07:54,600 --> 00:08:00,775
us, but it doesn't seem to be holding back their sales. The F770P is the

111
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:05,760
number three best seller on Amazon with [music] dual channel recording oops and

112
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:11,880
a front camera that boasts up to 4K 30 or 1080p 120 [music] FPS. However,

113
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:17,040
despite achieving 4K 30 FPS during our daylight test, our camera automatically

114
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:22,680
and without warning drops to 25 [music] FPS for twilight and night time shots.

115
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:28,240
More like Red Kitten. Our second hundred plus dollar model was the ROAV R2-4K

116
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,595
Dual. This was Amazon's second best

117
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:34,880
selling dashcam when we bought it [music] and despite its confusing name,

118
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:37,640
it is not in fact a dual 4K camera. The

119
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:42,400
rear camera is only 1080p. But on paper, the value is still there with an IMX 675

120
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:47,839
primary sensor, not to mention some nice extras like a free 128 gig microSD card.

121
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:54,640
The final camera in this group is the JAZON's [music] V630. It also claims to use a STARVIS

122
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:56,760
IMX 675 and is the only three channel

123
00:08:54,640 --> 00:09:01,320
camera in this group, which could be a nice extra value. On top of that, they

124
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:03,920
claim to have a lifetime warranty. But

125
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:07,080
good luck with that everybody. [music] Right away, these cameras stand out from

126
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:12,320
our budget options with the ROAV achieving better daylight [music] performance with clearer license plates

127
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:16,800
than the Red Tiger. The JAZON's, meanwhile, seems overexposed here.

128
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:20,480
While the ROAV shows sun flare, it manages to keep the van's letter

129
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:24,839
slightly clearer. In our twilight video, the ROAV again comes out in front with a

130
00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:29,560
still image that has little flare and better detail in dark areas.

131
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:32,120
It even focuses well on the smaller text next to [music] the 198 on the street

132
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,200
sign. We can clearly see the YAC letters on

133
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,400
the side of the truck with the [music] ROAV, but the Red Tiger and the JZones

134
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:44,160
struggle to give us a clear picture. At night, however, the Red Tiger wakes up,

135
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,231
beating the Roav in sharpness on the gas price sign.

136
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:51,800
With that said, >> [music] >> none of these are miracle products, and all three of them can't seem to focus

137
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:55,840
well on the license plates [music] here. The JZones seems to particularly

138
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:59,000
struggle at night. Once again, then, the right camera is going to depend on your

139
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:03,160
needs. If nighttime is your top priority, or if you like a nice compact

140
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:07,640
camera unit, Red Tiger [music] might be worth a look. But, we like the

141
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:11,920
Roav overall better for its well-rounded performance, and its inclusion of both a

142
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:15,480
sticker and suction cup mount. If an additional recording channel is a

143
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:18,760
must-have for you, and you absolutely can't spend more, >> [music]

144
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:24,400
>> then the JZones isn't terrible, either, but it didn't really stand out. Now,

145
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:28,800
it's time to move up in the world. We're getting to the big dogs. Not in

146
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:36,000
terms of price, but in terms [music] of reputation. The Viofo A119 Mini 2 costs

147
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:38,160
just $10 more than that last trio, and

148
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:42,839
was named best bang for your buck by Dash Cam Talk in both 2024 and 2025. And

149
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:46,960
I can really see why they like this thing. It is super compact, just like

150
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:50,760
the name says, which is [music] great for minimizing distractions, and it

151
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:55,000
features a tiny 1 and 1/2 in diagonal screen, and records at a

152
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:59,680
middle-of-the-road 2592 by 1944 resolution, which is, in my opinion,

153
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:03,600
more than enough. But, with competitors doing 1440p60,

154
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:08,720
I am a little disappointed to see it limited to just 30 frames per second.

155
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:12,560
Also, it's just single channel, and neither of the Viofo cameras that we

156
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:15,680
checked out come with SD cards, so you'll need to adjust your budget

157
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:20,360
accordingly. With all of that said, the image quality is just obviously better

158
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:24,160
than anything we've seen so far. In our daytime shots, there's no overexposure

159
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:28,520
on the sun and clouds, and the power lines are totally visible. The truck's

160
00:11:26,560 --> 00:11:31,440
writing is quite clear, too. The squarish 4x3 aspect ratio is

161
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:38,080
probably going to be a love-it-or-hate-it thing, but I personally think that it's pretty cool.

162
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,960
Clarity is great at dusk, too. The 198

163
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:43,240
street sign is legible, and the letters on the side of the truck are very

164
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,920
focused. Not much to complain about here, but just be aware of where you

165
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:51,240
install it. Maybe avoid the side of the windshield where we had ours, and you'll

166
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:55,080
likely get even better results. Finally, this is a very clear night video. The

167
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:59,200
signs are focused, and the license plate on the car in front of us is a little

168
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:03,200
challenging to read, but it isn't overexposed. This is pretty much a

169
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:06,840
best-case scenario. We really like this camera and can comfortably recommend it

170
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:11,880
if you want a quality single camera solution, and you don't need some of the

171
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:16,200
extras that we saw earlier. Also, Viofo Viofo They might have a gibberish Amazon

172
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:22,680
brand name, but they've been around long enough to build a reputation for actually having post-sale support, which

173
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,800
is easily worth a few bucks extra to me.

174
00:12:22,680 --> 00:12:31,160
But, what if you wanted to spend a lot more than a few bucks extra?

175
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:33,520
That's where the Thinkware U3000

176
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:37,880
comes in. This is another Dash Cam Talk recommendation that I just had to see

177
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:42,360
for myself. $380 for a dash cam? And I need to use their

178
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:46,839
special snowflake power cable instead of standard USB? This thing better be

179
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:50,760
pretty special, and it kind of is. It's loaded with features, though it's up to

180
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:54,880
you whether those features are important. One of the most interesting

181
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:58,240
to me is the audible advanced driver assistance systems, such as lane

182
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:02,440
departure warning, which if you have an older vehicle that doesn't include that

183
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:06,560
Well, this is a pretty low-budget way to add it. And for power efficiency, the

184
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:10,800
camera uses front and rear radar to monitor motion in parking mode. As for

185
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:14,640
image quality, it's good, but didn't blow us away, either. Good focus on the

186
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:18,720
license plates for the cars in front of us, but the sky here is overexposed, and

187
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:22,640
the power wires are being lost in the sun. There is clarity on the van's words,

188
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:26,200
though, and the color saturation is surprisingly good, if that matters for

189
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:30,440
your use case. In our twilight shot, the 198 sign is very clear, as is the

190
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:34,520
smaller [music] text next to it. However, we have seen clearer shots of

191
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:37,720
the YAC letters on the truck in motion. It is still usable, though. Finally,

192
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:41,920
night time quality was pretty disappointing with overexposure on the

193
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:46,520
signs and license plates. The gasoline price is blurry. It looks like it reads

194
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:50,200
161 instead of 151. You're giving me nightmares here, you

195
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:54,360
guys. Overall, this has a lot of extra features, but its video quality is a bit

196
00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:59,240
of a mixed bag, making it pretty hard to recommend for pure dashcam use. I'd

197
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:04,000
almost rather have one of our budget multi-channel kits plus an A119 Mini 2

198
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:09,640
for its better forward-facing image quality. That is unless there was a way to have

199
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:15,280
it all in one kit. That is the promise of the VIOFO A139T.

200
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:19,640
It is at the very high end of our price range,

201
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:25,560
but it's unique with two separate front-facing cameras. The main front

202
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:29,000
camera records 4K at 60 FPS with HDR off

203
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:31,880
or 30 FPS with HDR on like we recorded.

204
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:36,600
The secondary camera is a 4X optical zoom telephoto unit, and adding to its

205
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:40,440
bag of tricks, this camera supports an external SSD for more reliable

206
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:44,480
recording. But for $600,

207
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:50,680
I better see image quality that absolutely blows my mind and

208
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:54,960
All right, consider my mind blown. I can clearly see both license plates on the

209
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:58,880
cars in front of us. There's no overexposure in the sky, and the power

210
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:04,440
lines are clearly visible in the bright sun. All the writing on the side of the truck

211
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:07,440
is legible, even the smallest text, and

212
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:10,760
this is the telephoto lens. Wow.

213
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:12,425
That's awesome. I can clearly see all

214
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:16,680
three of those cars' license plates, [music] and something that no other

215
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:20,720
camera even came close to, check out the license plate on the van. We could have

216
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:24,520
aimed the camera a bit higher, but it's still great. Moving to twilight, [music]

217
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:28,480
Again, this is the clearest video of this intersection we've seen. The 198

218
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:31,960
sign is super clear and the 56 [music] Avenue cross street sign is also

219
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:35,280
legible. Wow. The license plate on the truck is almost

220
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:38,680
legible here, too, but that part of the image is too small. [music] And the YAC

221
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:42,120
text is blurry here, as well. Pulling out the telephoto, though, look at that

222
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:46,120
license plate on the truck. This image is so clear that we can see it before it

223
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:49,320
gets to the intersection. [music] The YAC letters are still blurry with

224
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:52,880
this lens, though. Finally, at night, we once again get great video capture. The

225
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:56,760
signs are clear and the license plate on the car in front is totally legible.

226
00:15:55,120 --> 00:16:01,640
That's not even the money shot, yet. Here's the telephoto at night time. Not

227
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:06,760
only is the gas station price crystal clear, but look at those license plates

228
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:10,040
at night. It clearly captures all the plates in the same lane as us and we

229
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:14,560
even get somewhat usable images of plates in the opposite lane. That is

230
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:17,640
quite remarkable. So, this is one of those times when you clearly get what

231
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:22,000
you pay for, even if you're paying a lot. In summary,

232
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:25,640
then, if simply proving fault in an accident is your main concern, an

233
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:29,400
affordable HD camera will probably do you just fine. If you need to catch key

234
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:33,400
details, like a license plate after a hit-and-run, you'll definitely want to

235
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:36,440
spend extra on a 4K resolution dash cam with the highest frame [music] rate you

236
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:40,320
can get. And if you want extra bells and whistles, like ADAS or cloud storage,

237
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:43,280
there are some good options out there, but you might end up opening [music]

238
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:47,520
your wallet more than you might have thought to get one that also offers

239
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:50,920
compelling image quality. Tell us what's important to you guys in a dash cam and

leave a comment below. Are you looking for image quality first or features? Or

241
00:16:53,839 --> 00:16:59,960
is it just enough video to prove that you weren't at fault? Are you maybe
