    I mounted mine almost between “the eyes” but NOT on the black dots. I will say voice command rarely works. I just use the button. Good video quality to be so small. Mine is not hardwired. Detects g force. App works well! Im happy with my purchase. Ive had it for a few months now.

    Turns on when truck starts, acts as if it’s a front camera to sense movement/ collision detection not just records video which was an unexpected plus.

    The camera quality was good, but the processing was slow. With that price it could have been better. Also the GPS should have been provided with every camera.

    Best product for your money. I would go out and deepen the extra $50-$75 for the screen. Navigating with is easy. Using the app and installation is a breeze.

    I expected better from a company, such as Garmin. I like the simplicity in futures this offers however it’s unreliable and has a lot of bug. Using the app is so slow it’s unusable and there customer support is a the same. It works as cheap insurance, though as I’ve checked the SD card and it seems to be recording.

    The camera is a nice size ane pic but thats about it, you have to manually connect to wifi every time you get in the car, also it keeps asking you to subscibe to a service to upload your videos to the cloud, very annoying, you also need to be connected to wifi to upload any videos to your phone, my other dash cam automatically downlaod videos to my phone without me doing anything, also it connected to my phone also..

    Better than expected performance. A few slight issues—replaced an older model and uses a different cord so had to run this one through; also, bigger (width) so mount had to be moved further from the mirror. These slight inconveniences do not outweigh the performance over the older ones.

    We have the Garmin mini 2 in our other vehicles and they have been great over the last four years. My Cobra SC201 dash cam went down so I figured the Garmin mini 3 would be an upgrade and so far it’s been amazing. Easy connect to the app for live view and takes up less space on the windshield. It’s a must have these days.
