Customers are saying

Customers admire the M1 Dash Cam's excellent video quality and ease of use, finding it easy to install and use with other Escort products. However, some customers feel the price is high for the features offered, and the app could be improved. Concerns were also raised regarding the lack of GPS functionality and the mount's limited adjustability.

    I bought this dashcam and tried to set it up the day I bought it. I couldn't because there wasn't a mounting bracket included for the radar detector. I had to do some research, find it online and special order it since Best Buy didn't carry it and couldn't order it. The manager though did an AWESOME job helping me out with this (Thanks Kyle!). The mobile app is great and love to be able to see what the cam sees in real time. The only complaint I have is that it doesn't show the speed of the vehicle and in order for it to do that you have to step up to another radar detector (lowest priced one that will do this is just under $400).

    I am one of the unfortunate ones to have T-mobile, but even still I don't really have an issue in accessing the footage. If you do want to have the cam streaming while driving it may be a little difficult, but I found no reason to do this and have been able to capture my best (and worst) moments on cam. Would definitely recommend

    Easy setup. The fact that the cam and radar units share a single mount and power source reduces clutter. I especially like that in addition to the convenient integration with their radar detectors, Escort still delivered on features - quality video, large view area, and night vision. Well done, Escort.

    This camera records so clearly day and night that is amazing, the price not to bad. The only little problem i see is that the suction cup for the windshield is very uncomfortable to operate and it broke after a month. Warranty and customer service is excellent, they sent me a replacement in 3 days.

    This is designed to work in conjunction with an escort Radar Detector, But can also be used as a standalone for those short trips that doesn't require a radar detector. Excellent image quality along with a compact size make this a great choice. The available app makes using it a breeze.

    This is pretty expensive compared to similarly featured cams, but it's not a bad choice if you have an Escort radar detector. PROS: - Installation takes less than 10 minutes and anyone should be able to do it. - It portable and can use it in a rental car. - Good picture and sound quality. - Less wires and clutter on windshield. CONS: - Using the app is tricky, but I found it works best with my phone in airplane mode and WiFi turned on. - Lack of features. - Too expensive.

    3 of these and they all failed.

    I actually obtained 3 of these and none of them survived more than a month. The first one lasted a month and then wouldn’t power up. Got it replaced under warranty by the manufacturer and that one wouldn’t sync with the phone. Rather than deal with the manufacturer again I just went and bought another one. This time it destroyed the radar detector power cord. I thought it may be a bad cord, so I bought another cord. It ate the 2nd cord. At this point, I’d had enough and took it back. I really enjoyed the month that the first one worked. Other than that it was all bad.

    This is so perfect because I have the escort radar detector, & it easily was able to attach to the side of it. No extra cable needed to connect, powered by the same cable as the radar!

    I have loved having this hooked up in the truck. It is a extra peice of mind while cruising down the roads with radar. I have it on a 8 hour delay to power off so even when I am at work it is still running while parked and with the radar removed from the mount. I feel like that is extra security I would pay double for. The only thing I wish is the sold a secondary camera for your rear window or a way to connect two of these with your radar. I have loved running the escort apps and programs keeping our vehicles and selves protected.
