Customers find value in the Dash Cam Mini 3's small size and ease of use, praising its surprisingly intuitive setup and good picture quality for its compact form. Many appreciate the wide field of view, though some experienced difficulties with the app's connectivity and video transfer speed. Overall, the camera's performance is considered better than expected by many users.

    Absolute garbage DO NOT BUY. I have the garmin 2 in my car and it works great purchased the garmin 3 for my wife’s new car and had to return it after 2 days of trying to get it to work properly and reaching out to customer support multiple times would not record must of the times unless I unplugged it and plugged it back in just a big headache.

    I bought this device because it was a Garmin and I thought Garmin is good for quality, but I’m here to say that this is the biggest piece of crap that I’ve ever bought. I have tried and tried and try to get it to work. Wi-Fi doesn’t work on it. You go through major steps and finally the device tells you to call Garmin so they can fix it. I won’t be buying Garmin again.

    The app and camera both stopped working together a few months with it. It just stopped connecting to my phone and i was never able to access my videos.

    Was told by Best Buy Staff this would sink with my old Apple 7 phone. It did not because my phone blocked out where I was to push accept as part of the software download. Like Garmin and opter to spend more and get one with its own screen. Will pick it up today some distance from my home. Nothing like shopping at Christmas.

  • Pros mentioned:
    Picture quality

    Rated 3 out of 5 stars

    LEDs are too bright!

    Easy to set-up and picture quality looks good for 1080p, no issues with glare. The biggest problem is that you cannot disable the LED lights and they are VERY bright in the cabin at night time. Garmin needs to update to allow the LEDs to be turned off. You can disable the camera sound from the app but no adjustment option for the LEDs.
