Customers are saying

Customers highly value the DRV-A601W 4K Dash Cam's video quality and ease of use, with many praising its clear recordings and user-friendly interface. However, some users experienced issues with the product's reliability, including instances of the device unexpectedly shutting down and problems with the screen and app functionality. The camera's GPS features and night vision capabilities also received positive feedback. While some appreciated the compact size, others found the screen too small.

    Great picture quality. Yes the connection to any android or iPhone (I have done both) can be frustrating at first, BUT once you forget the device one time from your Bluetooth settings on both iOS and Android I have not had any issues connecting and downloading any videos. I attached the power cable that’s “always on” and the parking mode rocks!!

    Worked for just shy of three months and then stopped powering on and I can't get it to do anything. Going to try and return it to the manufacturer.

    I had it installed by Geeksquad and I am quite satisfied as they did a good job, as I was not sure how to install it myself. It does not come with instructions for installation.

    Do not drive around without a dash am in your vehicle. You never want to have an accident with someone and it ends up being your word against theirs.

    Mount a crayon to the inside of your windshield...

    if you are ldesperate for a way to waste $200 and craete hours of frustration for yourself, this is your perfect solution. Even the Geeks cannot figure out how to make this work, so a non techy guy like myself has no chance whatsoever. Mount a crayon to the inside of your windshield instead and hope it draws pictures for you as you drive. You will end up with the same disappointing result, but save $220 and a lot of aggravation.

    Does exactly as the company said it would. Only issue is the need to reformat more than we wish it had to.

    It's unclear if the camera records access the camera using Kenwood web. The magnet that holds the camera barely holding the camera.
