Camera works however its only 1080p, its clear but should be better. For the price i would expect the software to work better but its a big let down. Only reason i didn't return its because it works with my radar detector and minimize wires and mounts.

Good Camera

I was hesitant at first as I use a Uniden R3 and was not sure if this will mesh together. It has worked out great this far. The only issue i would say that I’ve encounter is the length of the wire coming from the camera that connects to the detector. My Uniden R3’s connection port is on the opposte end of where the camera faces when on the mount. So it is a bit of a stretch connecting the 2. The wite connection is stretched to max so hopefully it lasts. Im sure I can find a small extension but thatbis the issue that I have found with connecting it to the Uniden R3. Good vamera overall

Needs Work

I’m giving it only 4 stars because the app lacks so many features. It’s a pain to get the videos out thru the app. Then you need 2 apps to run your radar and camera, I called Escort and the answer to this problem is we know and are working on it but no time frame is given.
There are better and easier cameras with app out there, the M2 needs a lot of work.

Super clear pictures. Cons are you can only look at your gallery when the cam is on and connected to Blutooth. Hopefully if I do need the footage I can get access quickly without it being overwritten

Doesn't record continuously

Well, I wanted to like this dash cam and had high hopes it would be a good product, but unfortunately while it does record decent quality video, it doesn't record continually and misses most of the things I'd actually want it to get, like idiot drivers. I've tried any number of fixes to get it to work, from resetting it, to deleting it from the app, to multiple new and old cards. Had enough with it not working up to snuff and am returning it.
Also annoying, the app leaves much to be desired. It's ridiculously slow to connect and view recorded videos on the camera with.

We are sorry to hear you had trouble with your M2. It is designed to record continuously when connected to power. Connectivity to the app has generally been good, but we're sorry to hear of your experience.

$200 Piece of Plastic- Simply Awful
|

Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I very rarely write reviews- I'll typically only write a review if an item far exceeded my expectations or if an item is so bad that I feel like I have an obligation to warn fellow shoppers. Unfortunately, the Escort-M2 falls into the latter scenario.
This dash cam (for me, at least) is 100% unusable. For $200 I would expect a dash cam that is at or near the "top of the list" compared to other dash cams in terms of features, connectivity, support, and so on... Personally, I'm surprised they even decided to put this thing out on the market- it's that bad!
It legit will not connect to the Drive Smarter app and since there's no physical screen on the dash cam it means there's no way to view any videos or adjust any settings. I tried to connect it for over an hour and it didn't connect once, so I gave up and decided to try again later. Several hours later I tried again for 45min and again, it didn't connect a single time... I tried to contact Escort for support but I couldn't get through and the phone would just disconnect. This is the product and support that you provide for a $200 dash cam? For $200 you'd expect a product that allows you to set it up, access your videos, adjust settings, access support, & so on... But, this Escort dash cam doesn't even warrant a price tag of $20 (and that's not an exaggeration).
There are several other dash cams on the market for significantly less money that will actually do what they say. If I were Best Buy I would stop selling this product until they make it functional, because as it stands now it's just a $200 piece of plastic and, to make matters worse, Escort provides no support... Needless to say, this thing will be returned tomorrow.
FYI- I have an iPhone 13 Pro w/ the most recent iOS software and the most recent Drive Smarter app downloaded. Maybe you'll have a better/different experience with a different phone, but I doubt it considering I'm using the new iPhone.

Seems to work good, but I’m gonna go with one that has cameras on both front and back. It does integrate well with an existing escort radar detector if you have one.
