Did not meet my expectation
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I kept it for a week and not very impressed. The picture during the daytime was very good at night. You couldn’t even pick up a license plate mostly due to it being wiped out due to headlights and or street lights. My biggest concern was that after about eight or nine minutes it would keep shutting off and that was with a 256 gig card. I have an iPhone 14 and I could not playback any video at all. I would have to take the card out and stick it in my laptop in order to see any of the videos which makes absolutely no sense.

Cobra SC 400D Dual View is Awesome.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My very first dash cam. I looked at many online and in store, and read online reviews. The Garmin was nice, but only had the front camera(also $$$),but the Cobra ,for the same price, I got both cameras. The video on my phone is very good quality. There are no directions so you might have to call Cobra CS. I recommend it.

Will not stay affixed to front windshield
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good Camera and video. Seems easy to use. However, the front camera will not stay affixed to front windshield. Cobra customer service was not very helpful. Every time I would leave the office the front camera would be dangling by the cord. Frustrated, I disconnected it - so it is not a useful dsh cam right now.

Just one little draw back
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the quality of the images. The only thing that could be better is how long the videos stay available. They should stay on there longer than a few hours. Some trips can have your driving more than just a few hours.

Posted .Thanks for the great review! The camera does loop record. Emergency clips will not be written over, but if you wish to save other recordings, you can do that as well. You can also use a larger SD card. The SC 400D will take an SD card up to 256GB. We recommend using a Class 10 or U1 card from a reputable vendor.

Great size, clear Picture
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Clear view with high-quality feed. Great size on the windshield, and doesn't obstruct the view of the driver while driving. If it can have a suction mount instead of adhesive would be great.

Posted .Thank you so much for the amazing review! While an adhesive mount is included with the camera, we do offer a Suction Mount for the SC 400D. You can locate it by following this link: https://www.cobra.com/products/sc-200-and-sc400-gps-suction-mount

- Cons mentioned:App
Pricey , App not comparable
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera can be much better and have clearer pictures. The app for this camera is not comparable with android phones . Had I know I wouldn't have purchased this with installation. Please Cobra fix , update your compatability and make your app work universal on any mobile . phone . Add an update or offer a comparable mobile app to use with is camera. $400 00 price point is not worth it. Its an okay car cam.

A gold nugget, covered in dirt.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To of the line camera. The accompanying app and pretentious add-ons take away so much from what this product could be. "Alexa" and the "DriveSmarter" features all come from your phone, which is going to be closer to you than the camera is. "Instantly downloadable and shareable..." not so much. Cobra needs to take a lesson from Nexar on how to handle the video files. Having to download individual 1 or 2 or 3 minutes clips of your trip and then piecing them together is not "instant"; not to mention the phone and camera connecting and disconnecting before, during and after each download. Video quality is stellar. The software side is where this thing suffers and suffers greatly.

Very good dash cam
||Posted .

The best dash cam for the money
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera is easy to setup, i like the rear camera, it installs from the inside of the rear window. It took me 30 minutes to install and setup
I would recommend this to a friend Lots of features with too small of a screen.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While it has a lot of features, the view from the camera screen is hard to see because it is small. I have a 360 camera I purchased online in another vehicle I own and the screen is much bigger and shows all four angles separate from each other. This one shows the camera angles on top of each other. Very disappointed. Don’t see anyway to toggle it either.

Video quality is great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In general, everything is great and video is clear. But not sure why sometimes it will turn off automatically after I restart my vehicle.
