    If you’re looking for a dash cam that’s as discreet as it is functional, the Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2 might just be your new best friend. This tiny device, barely the size of a key fob, packs a punch with its 1080p HD video recording and a 140-degree field of view. In conclusion, the Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2 is a fantastic choice for those who value simplicity and discretion. While it may not have all the bells and whistles of higher-end models, its compact design, good video quality, and user-friendly features make it a solid option for everyday use. Just be prepared to invest a bit more for the necessary accessories.

    Decent picture quality for the price and size, does what it needs to and is small enough to not distract or intrude on windshield space!

    This is my second dash camera from Garmin. Overall amazing picture and video quality. I was very impressed with the purchase. So tiny, I forget it’s there with the hidden wires. I almost was in collision last week when a vehicle turned right in front of me. I attached a photo. Luckily I was able to see them and braked in time. I was happy to have this to go back and look at.

    The dash cam is small, easy to use. Due to his size, it can easily be placed behind the rear view mirror, not obstructing your view when driving. The cord length was suffice for me to tuck in between panels, and plugging in the AC outet. I would definitely consider buying again for my other vehicle.

    Video is good, but you will have to download app to see footage and to understand what is going on with it, because it can randomly not be functioning properly and a different light may come on, so keep your phone handy. Other than the occasional reboot it's been working good, only reason it got 4/5 stars.

    Great dash cam. The Garmin Mini 2 is nice and small so it doesn’t obstruct your view. The operation is fairly turn key. Setting it up with Apple Car Play on interferred with the bluetooth setup until all bluetooth carplay connections are disconnected.

    Works great, stays recording the whole drive & automatically records short clips when hitting potholes & such. Connects to your phone through Bluetooth & WiFi, allowing you to view footage from the Garmin app. Only downside is the car has to be running to view footage wirelessly, however you can remove the SD card & put it in a laptop to view that way. Overall easy to use and gives you peace of mind. Mine is hidden behind the rearview mirror and the wire included is tucked behind the headliner and routed to the cigarette lighter under my glovebox. I can barely notice it while driving.

    Love this little dash cam high-quality better than an iPhone .has helped me in a real accident with insurance companies due to another party Damaging my driver side Red door .clearly showed I was at a complete stop. While the other person continues to drive and hit my car. Had this camera for about two years only issue I do have every so often it lets off a really high-pitched noise and you have to unplug it and wait to it to power off and then replug it in and then the cameras working again It’s been two years since I had this camera. The main issue I have now is that the camera got damaged by the sun and only records in green but thankfully I have the warranty through Best Buy so I’m able to get a replacement. I will always continue to use Garmin this has been a wonderful product would recommend

    This is a compact and convenient dashcam. It doesn't offer the performance or features of more expensive models, nor is it the best value in it's price range. But it's incredibly simple to set up and looks inoffensive on the windshield. It's been reliable and the company is based in the US. It's perfect for people who want a simple no-frills dashcam.

    Excellent camera but garmin app is very slow. Everyone must read this. Best way to view videos from camera is to buy usb c /lightning to usb female adapter and attach to the charger end of the supplied cable. Then you can view/copy paste all the video files on your phone file manager. Connecting to camera wifi takes long time and downloading is even takes more time.
