    Tiny Camera Packs a BIG PUNCH!

    My Dash Cam mini 3 is so tiny, it’s hardly noticeable. They installed it right behind my mirror. I love the fact that it has voice command features. The video quality is crystal clear as well as the voice recording. If you don’t want a big clumsy dashcam on your windshield, I highly recommend getting the dash cam mini 3. It’s well worth it.

    Defective Dash cam mini after 2-3 years. The video quality degraded to a blurry pinkish screen!

    Well Performing for the Price!

    I have had this for a month. I like it because it is hidden out of sight behind my rearview mirror, picture quality is good, the brand has been around for a long time and the price. There are a few things so far I don't like: 1) it records duplicates in two different formats, 2) date/time is off on some of my recordings. Instructions say to connect to the app to fix, I have not tried this yet. I think that is a big flaw, you should be able to set date/time manually and never worry again or depend on an app to link up and correct. 3) It should come with a suction cup mount instead of just adhesive it has. The customer should not have to pay extra for the suction mount that is offered as an option. There are other cheaper cameras out there with starvis2, night vision, 4k, but they have not been out there as long as Garmin and the reviews of failures to record or unit becoming defective after 6 plus months helped make me decide to go with Garmin. The video is good enough quality night and day time. I would recommend this product and also recommend if you have a powered rearview to check out donglar to make the connection from rearview mirror straight to your camera. It makes a very clean installation.

    Great camera in a small package

    The camera was easy to install and configure. I was able to tuck the wire around the windshield and had enough length to make it to the power port. As of this writing, the Garmin Drive app can be a bit slow to pull video, but it works. (When transferring video, turn bluetooth off on your phone to make it transfer faster over adhoc WiFi.) Video quality is alright. Definitely better than several other dash cams I have seen. It is serving its purpose and met my criteria of being small enough to hide behind the rear view mirror. From the driver seat, it can barely be seen.

    Garmin Dashcam

    The camera works well and has good clarity. I found the set up for synching with my cell phone and WlFi difficult to follow. Overall, I am happy with it.
