    I did a lot of research and settled on this dash cam based upon review sites that had published prior model reviews. I should have looked at forums and purchase reviews more closely as it's clear that Nextbase dash cams have had freezing issues for a while. Based upon several multiple page postings on various dash cam related forums, they have freezing issues that in the past may or may not have been fixed with software upgrades depending on what forum you visit. My initial problem was that the camera appears to work normally until the SD Card gets full or at least has a decent amount of space used. Then it will simply freeze after 2 to 3 seconds of recording until you format it again. I was told by support that my non dash cam approved SD cards were the problem so I purchased an SD card that was rated well above their stated rates which is specifically for professional video recording. BTW, they only state on the box that you need a U3 rated card. Not a magical unicorn SD card that only they have been able to find and determine to be worthy of their devices. That high end SD card still had the issues so I asked for a return as my return period with Best Buy had now passed and they offered to send me a NextBase unicorn SD card that would surely fix my issues. Well it did change my issue, now instead of working for a day or two and then freezing up every time it will just randomly freeze every third or fourth time it's turned on. I have wasted two months with this device and their only answer is that I can't buy the right SD card when even their own card doesn't work. I'm done, I have again asked for a return for the full purchase price and will report back here if Best Buy allows edits of reviews as to whether or not they grant me this or I've been cheated out of 400 dollars.

    Not what I expected. More hype than actual features that work. Camera has locked up several times. I have a $25 Dash Cam in another car that is more reliable than this one. The high resolution camera is good if you need to read a license plate. Other than that... Don't buy this one

      Hello,

      Thank you for your review. If the micro SD card is non-compatible or damaged, or if the SD card is not regularly formatted, the card could corrupt.
      Symptoms of SD card failure are: an audible 'alarm' tone, non-functional buttons, freezing, corrupted files on playback, image missing from files, lack of file recording etc.

      The issue that you have described is symptomatic of a non-compatible or failed SD card.

      I'd recommend a Dash Cam compatible 8GB -128GB U3 Micro SD card, specifically designed for Dash Cam or CCTV usage. Using a dash cam compatible SD card instead should then allow your Dash Cam to function as designed. The card needs to have a minimum continuous write speed of 48MB/s.

      Regards,
      The Nextbase Support Team

    I started off with a cheaper dash cam, a Garmin, which I had all kinds of problems with. I then decided to splurge and get this model. It is worlds better then the first one I bought. Very happy with it, the video is crisp and clear. The software to view the video on the computer is also top notch. Recommended

    Having 4k its the best, with some new add-ons. But it also kept freezing up and I had to reset it every 10minutes or so, super annoying!! I returned it since I got fed up with it and hated it, I ended up buying the 522gw, and its amazing! :) no issues anymore.

      Hello. Thanks for getting in touch and sorry to hear of your experience with the 622GW. Can I ask what sd card you were using please as that might have been causing the issues? I'm happy to hear you got things sorted with the 522GW and are enjoying the Dash Cam. Thanks, Nextbase

    This thing is so glitchy! The software or maybe I have a bad unit. If I do anything on the app while connected I have to reset the camera because it freezes. Not sure if it the app or the hardware. I’ve had for a week and have had to reset it at least 6 times. And yes I have a next base mini sd card in it. I would highly recommend going a different route. For the price of the unit find something cheaper and more reliable. I think it’s shameful a company would release something with this many issues. I’ve looked at other reviews and noticed I’m not the only one with these problems. I really want to like this unit.

    So far so good, but had to remove the polarization filter because I have a tint on my windshield that caused rainbows on the video. The image stabilization seems to work pretty good. My primary use will be recording my travels. I'm hoping the NextBase 256GB micro SD will work with this model. Got it on order.

    Great Dash CAM and much better than Garmin and Rove units I've tried. Easy setup and control. Phone app works good but a tab bit slow, but very usable. Easy to transfer or delete files. Was able to use a 128GB SIM Card. 622GW does not require polarizing filter since built in. Using the 422GW in other vehicle which I like and reason I wen with the 622GW version.

      Hello,

      Freezing is symptomatic of a non-compatible, or non-formatted SD card.
      If the card is non-compatible or damaged, the card could corrupt which would cause a failure of data writing.
      Symptoms of SD card failure are: an audible 'alarm' tone, non-functional buttons, freezing, corrupted files on playback, image missing from files, lack of file recording etc. Please ensure the card is formatted every 2-3 weeks.
      I'd recommend a Dash Cam compatible 8GB -128GB U3 Micro SD card, specifically designed for Dash Cam or CCTV usage. Using a dash cam compatible SD card instead should then allow your Dash Cam to function as designed. The card needs to have a minimum continuous write speed of 48MB/s.
      If you need any further assistance regarding your SD card, please contact Nextbase Support.
