    Concise dash cam with QHD 1440P video resolution

    This Cobra SC 120 Dash Cam is a great entry level camera to have for documentation for your drives. This may be a smaller sized and concise camera package, but it does the overall job well with what it offers and the features included. The dash cam has a maximum video playback quality of QHD 1440P video resolution, and can also be scaled down to a lesser resolution if you choose to. This dash cam is different than most since it does not have a screen for visibility and controls. Primarily you'll need to utilize the Drive Smarter Cobra mobile app, which is available on both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. I'm using the Apple CarPlay version paired with my iPhone. Since this dash cam is smaller it makes it a more compact footprint on the driver's windshield which allows for less obstruction of view from the driver or passenger seat. Once you get this up and running, you'll rely mainly on the Cobra mobile app for all your reporting and guidance features. You can use this Drive Smarter app much like a GPS similar to the more popular app based GPS systems. What I noticed with the Drive Smarter app is that it has community based alerts that will notify you of police spotted or laser radar to allow you awareness of what may be around you. Playback and viewing is done via connecting the app to the camera over wifi, and then you can view the recordings on your smartphone. Easily download any clips you need from your dash cam to your phone storage album. This proves to be helpful especially if you get into an accident and need documentation to provide. Overall the app is easy to use and allows for some basic settings and functions to operate your dash cam. Included within the package is the actual dash camera, power cable (USB-C), temporary install film, cable management kit/tool, and a 16GB micro SD card. The only thing that would have made this better would have been an included suction cup style mount for more flexibility in case I need to move it from one vehicle to the next. All in all I think this dash cam is a great addition to any vehicle for safety and peace of mind. It offers the basic function of recording and documenting video in forward facing form, but also gives you the Drive Smarter app ability to be aware of speed traps or police on the GPS.

    Best in Class Dash Cam

    Cobra's latest SC 120 Dash Cam intrigued me with it overall size and price. I always wanted to get a dash cam, as driving has become more dangerous these last few years. I have encountered some very dangerous driving situations lately. The SC 120 was my choice to test as the size, price, and feature set makes this dash cam a no brainer. the Some impressive features of the SC 120 are: QHD / HD resolution Trip Clips - time lapse videos Parking Live View - Network and Hardwire Kit needed 360 Alerts In the box: Everything needed comes packaged the box. All you really need to do beside install the dash cam, is download the app in either iOS or from the Google Play store. Compact QHD Dash Cam 16GB SD Card Cable Management Kit Temporary Install Film Power Cable Experience with SC 120 dash cam: Setting up the SC 120 took about 20 minutes in total. The setup was super easy as I choose to install the dash cam on my front windshield underneath my rearview mirror. I was able to run the data cable with the included clips to install the dash cam. This allowed the installation to remain neat and tidy. Also, everything I needed was included in the box which I really liked. Daytime image quality is impressive. Driving at night is a little hit or miss as far as image quality is concerned. As long as there is light in the designated image field of view, the video quality is pretty good. The images comes out less desirable when there is a lack of lighting. The wide 140 degree field of view, captures pretty much everything in front of you. Where the Cobra SC 120 falls short is the app experience. I'm currently using the Android version, and I've noticed several issues. When connecting to the dash cam from the app, it takes several minutes to fully connect. Sometimes the connection failed on me. I had to force close the app and restart it on several occasions. I saved several clips to the cloud and I have been unable to access them from my drive smarter online account. The website shows no videos available. Maybe some of these issues within the app can be resolved by a firmware update. I am able to access all I still think the Cobra SC 120 is a must buy for budget conscious buyers that's in the market for a quality dash cam with a lot of premium features. I like this dash cam so much, I will get get another one for my other vehicle.

    Tiny dash cam with big performance

    The Cobra SC 120 is a tiny dash camera with impressive video quality. Because the size is so small, I was able to mount without obstructing my view or any of the other electronic items on my windshield. It also has a ball/socket joint where it connects to windshield, which allows for easy adjustments if the mount isn’t perfect (but it is very sturdy once you set the position). It also has wifi, and syncs photos/video with my phone quickly. It includes a 16GB micro SD card, but I had a 256 GB card to make sure I never miss anything. The buttons are all easily accessible and it emits sounds similar to a door bell to confirm that you are ready to go. This camera also comes with a mapping app called “Drive Smarter”. I’ve included screen shots that show the different radar bands and traffic that this app displays. I am excited to use it on longer trips as it may help me avoid a ticket. I’ve tested it against other more popular mapping apps and it has given the same suggested routes, so this is a nice bonus. I’ve never had a dash cam before, but after getting into an accident where I was rear-ended a few months ago, it had been top of mind. While the guy who hit me took full responsibility, I’ve had friends that were not so lucky. There are viral videos of people all the time that should not even be allowed to drive -- I hope I never “need” this Cobra dash cam, but I'm happy that I have it.
