Cobra - SC 400D Dual-View Smart Dash Cam with Rear-View Accessory Camera, works with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto - Black/Silver

The Cobra SDC 400 Dash Cam is a very workable, helpful device after the end user understands the functions and limitations. One of the ports (the rear camera port) failed on the first unit I purchased. It just suddenly stopped working. So customer support from Cobra suggested that I attempt to plug in the cable from the rear camera into the inside (cabin) camera port, and — voila! — I could see images from the rear camera. So, nothing wrong with the camera; instead, the dash cam unit itself had become defective. So, I chi it acted Best Buy, the the tech people were very helpful. I had to purchase a second Cobra dash cam, but I was able to return the original defective unit and received a refund. The rrr ET placement has been working well, but an amber horizontal line is at the bottom of the display screen. I’ve contacted cobra customer support, and I sent photo of the unit, but no response yet. Beware that while the Best Buy tech folks did a great job installing the unit, they hardwired the unit into the fuse panel. The way it was wired makes it necessary for the engine to be running constantly in order for the dash com to be on. If I let my AutoStop feature be enabled on my engine (fuel consumption feature to increase mileage), when the engine stops running, the dash cam shuts off. So, now I manually disable the AutoStop feature so the engine is always running, and, therefore, the dash cam is always on while I’m driving. The downloads to my laptop computer are very good, with good audio, excellent video resolution, and location data, tine/date stamp, and mph. I download every few weeks, and more often if I want to save an incident. Downside is that I would need to order an extra power source if I want the dash cam to remain on while my SUV is parked. Although Alexa compatible, you don’t need Akexa to issue voice commands to the unit. I say, “Screen off,” and the screen goes off while still recording. I say, “Take photo,” and it permanently saves photos from front, rear, and cabin cameras. (I do this when I have concerns that the driver behind me is playing with his/her phone abs nay accidentally rear-end my vehicle.) So, overall not perfect, but once you get used to its features and limitations, it’s a good, solid, 3-camera dash system. (BTW, it comes with front and rear cameras, but I had to purchase the cabin camera separately. It just plugs right in, and the dash cam records all 3 cameras simultaneously.)

I really loved this camera. We've been in the market for a while for a dash cam since we have young kids and do a lot of driving. We feel so much safer now knowing we have the cobra. It was so easy to use and install and I am usually not good at installing things. The picture quality is fantastic and it's so convenient to be able to see the images on your phone.

Excellent product, easy setup! As a mom of 3, I am always taking steps to ensure the safety and well-being of my family. To that end, I've been looking for a Dash Cam for several months now and decided on this one by Cobra. Set up was super easy and the video quality is great. The hardest part was figuring out what to do with the wires but I ended up tucking them into the nooks and crannies of the minivan and voila! Love the voice controls -- looking forward to exploring all the additional features. Happy with this product and the peace of mind it provides!

Just installed the Cobra- SC400D dual-view smart dash cam. Install was super easy even for those of us who are technologically challenged. It is Alexa enabled and responds to basic voice commands so you can be safe and focus on your driving. Features continuous loop recording and deletes your oldest videos to make space for new recordings. You can easily save your video clips in your favorites by using the "Lock Video" voice command. This particular model includes a rear view accessory camera so you are covered both front and back in case of an accident or emergency. Front camera is definitely 4K HD quality video. So not only are you protected in case of an accident but you are able to record beautiful landscape images on those family road trips. Highly recommend!

I had an old dash cam in my car and decided to upgrade. Didn’t realize how much better this camera would be. It’s easy to install with quick startup instructions. Picture quality is much better than my old camera. You don’t know how much better a dash cam can be until you invest in a Cobra. Highly recommend
