- Pros mentioned:Video quality
Poor file management of recorded video.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First, The Geeksquad guys did a great job installing the camera and the hardwire kit. They deserve Five stars! Second, the dash cam. I replaced a different low-end brand that failed with this Cobra cam to get the extra features. The cam records clear video and sound. The maps feature is nice, but I am debating whether I like the Drivesmarter app better than Waze. Third, the disappointment. I am very disappointed with how often it locks videos for the recording storage feature. I have the G-Sensor setting on one (the least sensitive), meaning it requires a harder hit to activate the locked recording. The problem is that it constantly saves locked recordings for every pothole, road bump, dip, intersection with a dip, parking lot entrance, and even a rough road like where they have removed the pavement with the grinder before they repave. There is no way to allot or partition the amount of storage that it uses to save locked videos. So even though I have the camera set to loop record, it does not loop record over locked videos rather quickly. So the memory card becomes filled with locked videos, and I get the "Memory Card Full" notification, and it can't record anymore. You must reformat the card or delete videos manually. Really! How many locked videos do I need? Let me set aside 200GB for locked videos; when that is full, delete the oldest locked videos and keep looping the locked videos. Use the rest of the card for looped recording. If I'm driving down the road and get the memory card full notice, I have to stop and reformat the card if I want to be protected in case of an accident. Otherwise, I am just unprotected if something happens, and I really need a saved video.

Posted .Thank you for your review. It seems there has been a misunderstanding regarding the G-sensor setting. If your G-sensor is set to level 1, please note that this level is the easiest to activate. Level 3, on the other hand, only locks videos when the most severe impacts are detected. You can adjust your G-sensor setting to your preferred level by accessing your camera settings menu. Our Drive Smarter app makes it easy to manage your device settings. We are continually working to improve our app and have received a lot of positive feedback. If you need assistance or have any suggestions, please feel free to contact us at 800-543-1608.

Nice Camera.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The car camera is great. Best Buy charge $99 installation fee instead of $199 due to Black Friday sale. The installation took around 1.5 hours. I only had it for a few days but so far so good. I didn’t have a chance to install the app on the phone, so far I didn’t figure out how to use the police alert yet. I had a state trooper in front of me today, the car camera didn’t show any alerts, I think I might need to install the app for it.

Dash camera

Awesome Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to install and good quality. I had another cobra dash camera and it took a dump on me and went and bought this one to replace it and it is much better. I was able to use the old existing wiring from the old camera to run the rear camera to it.
