It caters to drivers who prioritize both safety and convenience, boasting features that enhance its appeal as an essential vehicle accessory. #### **Design and Build Quality** The Rexing R316 is sleek, compact, and built with high-quality materials that give it a premium feel. The front camera is mounted on the windshield, capturing everything that happens on the road in stunning 4K resolution. What sets this model apart is its removable cabin camera, which can be attached or detached based on your preferences. If you don’t want to install the interior camera, the option to leave it out ensures that the device doesn’t intrude on your vehicle’s aesthetics or block your view. The design also emphasizes ease of installation. Whether you’re a seasoned tech enthusiast or someone who prefers simplicity, the Rexing R316 is incredibly straightforward to set up. The package includes all necessary cables for power, which can be connected either to your car’s cigarette lighter or directly to the fuse box for a more permanent installation. The wiring is discreet, and the entire process takes little time, allowing you to get your camera up and running with minimal effort. #### **Video Quality and Performance** One of the most critical aspects of any dashcam is its video quality, and the Rexing R316 does not disappoint. The front camera records in true 4K, providing crystal-clear images that capture every detail on the road. This level of detail is especially beneficial in the event of an accident or any other incident where you need to review the footage. The clarity of the video allows you to see license plates, road signs, and other vehicles with ease, even in challenging lighting conditions. The cabin camera, while not 4K, still offers impressive recording quality, capturing the interior of your vehicle in sharp detail. This is particularly useful for rideshare drivers or anyone who wants to keep an eye on the activities inside their car. The interior camera also features infrared night vision, ensuring that it can capture clear footage even in low-light conditions. #### **Connectivity and GPS Features** The Rexing R316 stands out with its dual WiFi connectivity, supporting both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks. This flexibility ensures that you can quickly and easily transfer video files to your smartphone or other devices, regardless of your network configuration. The WiFi connection is stable and fast, allowing for real-time video streaming and quick file downloads. In addition to its WiFi capabilities, the Rexing R316 includes a built-in GPS module. This feature records your vehicle’s speed, location, and route, adding a valuable layer of information to your video files. The GPS data is particularly useful in the event of an accident, as it can provide evidence of your speed and direction at the time of the incident. #### **Ease of Use and Additional Features** One of the standout features of the Rexing R316 is its user-friendly interface. The camera is controlled via a simple and intuitive menu system, which can be navigated easily using the buttons on the device. The large, clear display makes it easy to view footage and adjust settings without needing to consult the manual frequently. Moreover, the Rexing R316 comes with a 64GB SD card included, providing ample storage space for your video recordings right out of the box. This is a thoughtful addition that saves you from the hassle of purchasing a memory card separately, and 64GB is sufficient for storing several hours of 4K footage before needing to offload or delete files. The camera also offers loop recording, which automatically overwrites the oldest files when the memory card is full, ensuring that you always have the most recent footage available. Additionally, it features a G-sensor that detects sudden movements or collisions, automatically locking the footage to prevent it from being overwritten. #### **Pros:** 1. **Outstanding 4K Video Quality:** The front camera records in ultra-high definition, capturing even the smallest details on the road. 2. **Removable Cabin Camera:** The ability to detach the interior camera offers flexibility and prevents unnecessary clutter if you prefer not to use it. 3. **Dual WiFi Connectivity:** Supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks for fast and reliable video transfers. 4. **Easy Installation:** Comes with all necessary cables for both temporary and permanent installations, making setup a breeze. 5. **GPS Functionality:** Built-in GPS records speed and location data, adding valuable context to your video files. 6. **Infrared Night Vision:** The cabin camera captures clear footage even in low-light conditions. 7. **Included 64GB SD Card:** Provides ample storage right out of the box, with loop recording to manage memory efficiently. 8. **User-Friendly Interface:** Simple menu navigation and a large display make the camera easy to operate. #### **Cons:** 1. **Cabin Camera Not 4K:** While the interior camera offers good quality, it doesn’t match the 4K resolution of the front camera. 2. **Wiring Can Be Tricky:** While installation is generally easy, hiding the wires neatly may require some effort, especially if opting for a fuse box installation. 3. **No 4K Recording on Both Cameras Simultaneously:** If you’re using both the front and cabin cameras, only the front records in 4K. #### **Conclusion** The Rexing R316 4K GPS WiFi Front & Cabin Cam is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a high-quality, reliable dashcam with advanced features. Its combination of 4K video quality, ease of installation, and flexible options makes it stand out in a crowded market. Whether you’re a rideshare driver needing to monitor your vehicle’s interior or simply a driver who values safety and peace of mind, the Rexing R316 is well worth the investment. With its thoughtful design, powerful performance, and user-friendly features, this dashcam is sure to meet and exceed your expectations.

Rexing continues to improve-enhance their dashcams
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The R316 is my fourth Rexing Dashcam. I'll leave the more technical aspects for other reviewers, it' s the aesthetic improvements I appreciate-simple elegant shape and design and the smallest unit I've owned. It's looks like original equipment and is barely noticeable. The integrated GPS=suction cup module works better that adhesive squares and a simple turn vertical locks suction cup to the windshield. Controls and buttons/menu are the same as previous models so no learning curve. 4K (front only) is a noticeable improvement in video detail/quality and latency seems enhanced with move to USB-C connection. I finally plan to install the direct wire kit on this unit (included) which allows Parking Monitor/Surveillance mode protection. I'm impressed by the upgrades and features engineered into a small unit,

Great camera, good value for the price
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was so easy to connect and installation is fast. Just takes time the longest is hiding the power cable in the seams of the car. The main cam is 4k but the cabin is only 1080. The cabin camera shows most of the time in black and white but is still clear. This came with 64Gb micro SD memory card which was nice. You don't really need a huge card because it just gets over written once it's filled up and if something should occur, then you just connect your phone wirelessly to the camera and download that specific footage or take out the card and transfer in your laptop or computer. This also comes with hard wiring kit to always be on like the parking and collision detection to get that 24 hours protection which is really nice especially if you park your car outside the garage. Has night vision which is good and the suction cup mounts in the windshield connects solid so far. I installed this together with my older Rexing dashcam which has a rear camera but no cabin view. Both now works together to capture front, rear and cabin.

Excellent Dashcam for the Money!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a loyal user of various Rexing dashcams for years, and I’ve never been let down by any of them. In fact, I'm still using their original V1 dashcam that I bought four years ago in one of my cars. What continues to impress me is how Rexing always finds ways to enhance their dashcams, and one of their latest offerings, the Rexing R316, is no exception. The Rexing R316 is a new addition that builds on the strong foundation of Rexing’s previous models. It features ultra-high 4K front and 1080p cabin recording. Unfortunately, no rear camera is included in this unit, but if the next iteration includes it, I think it will be a complete package. This unit also has integrated GPS and Wi-Fi for route and speed logging, plus 24/7 surveillance and collision detection with its parking monitor and G-sensor. It comes with a 64GB micro SD card, which is more than enough for the average commuter considering that this dashcam has loop recording functionality. For the level of technology packed into this dashcam, I don’t think there’s anything on the market that can match the value Rexing offers. As you might have guessed, I completely trust Rexing for their quality and value. If you’re considering a dashcam, I highly recommend going with Rexing. Their products are reliable and built to last, and they come with a solid warranty and top-notch customer support. Every time I buy a Rexing product, I have peace of mind knowing I’m getting the best value for my money.

Regular Dash Cam
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this to replace a v1p. It’s ok. This cam came with a gps, and cabin facing camera, which wasn’t in the previous kit, it also has both a cigarette plug and a hardwire kit. It doesn’t however have a rear camera. The plug for the external camera is different, so I can’t reuse the existing installed rear cam. The finish is not great. After spending $200, you would expect a nice case. It feels cheap like a $10 Aliexpress item. The mounting is just a big suction cup, and the camera profile is big. The buttons are on the bottom and hard to interact with unless you unmount the camera. I haven’t had a chance to use it much yet, but it’s a nice picture and perfectly functional.

Rexing R316 Dash Cam Review: High-Quality Dual Cha
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Rexing R316 is an amazing dash cam for those seeking both front and cabin views, offering outstanding video quality. The front camera records in crisp 4K resolution, while the cabin camera captures clear 1080p footage, making it perfect for rideshare drivers or anyone looking for comprehensive vehicle coverage. In terms of value, the inclusion of a 64GB SD card makes this dash cam a great deal. You can start using it right out of the box without needing to purchase extra storage, which adds to its appeal. The packaging itself was well-designed and thoughtful. While I noticed a bit of damage to the exterior of the box, the interior was nicely padded, and all the components were in excellent condition, thanks to the careful packing. One thing I really appreciate is Rexing's decision to go with USB-C for power instead of the traditional car chargers. This modern approach is ideal for newer vehicles with built-in USB-C ports, making installation cleaner and reducing the need for bulky adapters. USB-C also provides faster and more reliable power, which is a great improvement for long-term use. A potential downside at this price point is the absence of a rearview camera. For those who consider rear coverage essential, this might be a drawback. However, if you don’t need a rear camera, the R316 still delivers on its promises and offers great functionality. The built-in GPS and the app have significantly improved. They used to have connectivity issues, but the addition of 5GHz Wi-Fi has made connecting much smoother and faster. The app is now far more reliable and user-friendly, making accessing your recordings and GPS data easier than ever. Pros: - High-quality 4K front and 1080p cabin recording - 64GB SD card included, ready to use out of the box - USB-C power option, great for newer vehicles - Improved GPS and app with 5GHz Wi-Fi for easier connectivity - Well-designed packaging with good protection Cons: - No rearview camera, which might be important for some users - Minor exterior damage to the packaging (though no internal issues, maybe an issue with shipping handling) Overall, the Rexing R316 is a fantastic choice for those who prioritize front and cabin recording with excellent features, modern power options, and solid performance at a reasonable price.

Some Good Stuff, but a Few Concerns
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.THE GOOD: Good quality cabin video (1080p/wide angle), night vision works well, nice looking design, gravity detection (collision) lock, easy to navigate settings, good audio pickup, easy to add a third rear camera THE MEH: Acceptable quality main camera (4K/wide angle), Rexing Connect (android app) for wireless viewing/download can be hit or miss, Rexing Connect is a bit feature light, cabin camera locking mechanism could be better, buttons can be difficult to read, no fine-tuning for main camera angle, unreliable suction cup mount, cannot use third party mounts This Rexing R316 kit has a good set of features: 4K main camera, 1080p cabin camera, GPS tracking, automatic night vision mode, smart wiring kit, auxiliary power adapter, suction cup mount, 64G MicroSD card, and several other bits and bobs. The camera has a nice, modern design in a fairly small package. It is attached to the windshield using the suction cup mount and can be powered by either hard-wiring the smart wiring kit to the fuse box or using the auxiliary power adaptor (aka cigarette lighter plug). For those who do not want to mess with routing cables, Best Buy offers dash camera installs for $99 (which is a pretty good price having installed one myself). The kit is a solid start for a dash camera setup, though I strongly feel an additional rear camera is a must for better video coverage (which can be purchased from Rexing or other venders; Best Buy does not offer it). The main camera video is 4K/30fps and the cabin 1080p/30fps. Video clarity is good and very usable, though the main camera videos look a bit blotchy to me. Video stabilization works very well even on very rough roads. License plates and signs are not very readable unless you are very close or not moving, but this is the same from every other car camara until the tech improves. I also found the automatic night vision mode worked well, even on very dark drives. Audio pickup is good, capturing not only cabin conversations but also quieter sounds like blinker noises. However, I do not think the range of the mic extends much outside the cabin. The included 64G micro SD card is enough to get you started. Rexing suggests it will capture about 7 hours of driving before overwriting the oldest videos... but I would be much more comfortable with a 256G card for better capacity. The Rexing Connect App worked, but was frustrating at times. There were several times when the app would not connect to the dash cam. Either the app or camera or both needed a restart for it to work. The app also could use some better features such as improved sorting, clearer times, dates, and camera ids instead of just file names. Downloading or view videos wirelessly worked fine once connected. Rexing also offers the Rexing GPS Player on their website for viewing videos on a Windows PC. It integrates with google maps to show the actual location of the vehicle as it travels through the recording. The video quality is not as good as VLC, but as a tool it is not bad. One point of clarification: The Best Buy listing states "motion detection" is a feature, but this is not entirely accurate. Motion detection is supported with the purchase and installation of the Intelligent Hardwire Kit from the Rexing website. I do not like suction cup mounts. I have yet to find one that will not eventually fall down. While testing, most any time I needed to make adjustments to the mounted camera, connecting wires or adjusting the angle of the camera, the mount would pop off the window no matter how cleaning I locked the suction cup in place. It comes off easily enough that I am worried the camera could fall if the car is in an accident. Also, the GPS is integrated into the suction cup mount, so third party mirror or adhesive mounts cannot be used without loosing the GPS functionality. Rexing does not offer any alternatives. Unfortunately my state has rules against suction cup mounts, so I use a mirror mount. Also, the cabin camera is detachable, locking to the main camera with a pincher style catch. This is great if the cabin camera fails, but it feels too easy to detach. I can foresee it flying off in a bad accident, loosing that video. It has disconnected a few times when I was adjusting the camera. I think this is a bit of a design flaw. There are several other ways the cabin camera could have been secured while still remaining detachable. Unfortunately this dash camera is a PASS for me due to the suction cup mount and the cabin camera lock.

Great value for money.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looking for a top-tier dashcam? Look no further than the Rexing R316. This dashcam is a perfect blend of sleek design and exceptional functionality. It captures crisp, high-quality video of both the road ahead and the cabin. And with additional hardware, you can easily add rear-facing footage as well. What really sets it apart is the video clarity. Even at highway speeds, signs, and license plates are captured with impressive detail. I ran into some internet connection issues, so I had to snap a photo of the screenshot with my phone. Even with this workaround, the camera's clarity remains evident, with the highway sign coming through crystal clear. The R316 also pairs seamlessly with an app for effortless control. For all the features you get, the price is an absolute steal. I can confidently recommend the Rexing R316 to anyone in need of a reliable, high-quality dashcam.

Nice upgrade from my previous dash cam
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice upgrade for me and really nice dash cam for any first time owner. The 4k is what got my attention with this. My old one was 1080p and the video quality was ok but I wanted something a little more hi def and this was the one I landed on. There is no rear camera with this setup so only the front and cabin are recorded. Comes with everything you need to get setup including a microSD card, cigarette charger and the smart hardware wire for cleaner install and always on capability. Video quality on this is right on par with what I was hoping/expecting. Still need to setup the hard wire since this dash cam is USB-C and my older one was MicroUSB. Once setup though, it'll look nice and clean.

Great Dashcam That Provides Peace Of Mind!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had many Rexing products over the years, and every new product has new advances in technology and get better each time. I recommend a dash cam to everyone and especially if you live out of your home country. Most places if you are a foreigner and have an accident you are automatically considered the guilty party. We were hit by a tractor trailing from behind and pushed into 4 other vehicles. I had a Rexing front recording dash cam and it captured the tractor trailer as we passed, then we came to a stop behind other vehicles before the tractor trailer slammed into us. I removed the dash cam and saved the video. I reported it to our insurance and lawyer, and the video proved that the other driver was at fault. It protected us, and all the other vehicles. Now with 4K quality frontrecording and 1080p cabin you won't miss any details! I would have been nice to have a rear camera added as well (maybe the next generation will have it). An easy mount to the window keeps things simple, and running the power cord to the cigarette lighter is very simple following the install instructions. Having a USB-C power cord is great, and including a 64GB micro SD card is a bonus! This will provide amble size for recording and the unit will record over all video that hasn't been locked and saved. The G sensor for impact detection, and the parking monitor detects vibrations when parked. Quality is great, and I still have Rexing products that I have purchased many years in the past that are still functioning without problems.

Now, here's another review for their new release Rexing R16. With its 4K resolution, oh boy it's so clear. With built-in GPS! It also already includes a 64GB Rexing microSD card which is a big plus so I don't need to purchase a memory card separately. I would say this is perfect for Uber/Lyft drivers as it records not only what is happening outside but also inside the vehicle. What's best with Rexing products is it has 18-month warranty! Looking forward for my next Rexing dash cam upgrades!

Great Video Quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to say it has been a mostly positive experience, with a few drawbacks worth mentioning. Pros: Picture Quality: The 4K resolution is impressive. The clarity of the footage is exceptional, Even at night, the low-light performance is decent, providing usable footage in dim conditions. Ease of Installation: Setting up the dashcam was straightforward. The included adhesive mount was easy to affix to my windshield, and the wiring was simple to route along the edges for a clean look. User-Friendly Interface: The interface is intuitive, making it easy to navigate through the settings. I appreciated how quickly I could adjust the settings or view footage. Wide Angle View: The wide-angle lens provides a broad perspective of the road, better than my previous dash cam Cons: Build Quality: While the design is sleek, the materials feel a bit less robust than I expected for a device that’s supposed to withstand the elements. I worry about its durability in extreme weather conditions. Wi-Fi Connectivity: The app for viewing and managing footage via Wi-Fi is a nice touch, but it can be glitchy. I experienced some connection issues, which made transferring videos to my phone frustrating at times. Overall, the R316 is good for me as I mainly focused on video quality.

I had been using my first one for past 6 years but after trading in the car for another one, I decided to purchase R316 and I couldnt be happier! The installation was fairly simple and took me about 20 mins to route and hide all the cables. The resolution is very good and it captures both front and back view. The app is also intiutive to use. Highly recommended!!

Rexing's Best Yet!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have owned many dashcams over the years, many of them made by Rexing. I can say, without a doubt, this is one of their best versions yet. The installation process is very simple, and you are given the choice for a hardwiring kit (included at no extra cost!) or a USB-C wire to plug in to the cigarette lighter in your car. Luckily, this dashcam replaced another Rexing camera I had already installed (hard-wired) and all I had to do was use a right-angled USB-C wire extender to get it to fit in the right place in my vehicle. The outstanding part about the R316 is *FINALLY* 5GHz WIFI! This makes transferring videos from the camera to your phone so much faster and it seems to keep a connection better than any other camera I have used with WiFi. One caveat: if you have CarPlay or Android Auto, you may run into issues downloading videos as the camera and the CarPlay/Android auto will fight for the WiFi connection. So, what I do is just turn the car off, connect to the camera with the Rexing app, and download videos as needed. The video clarity exceeds my exceptions - but front-facing and the in-cabin camera. The menus are intuitive and easy to set up. Definitely a 5-star rating from me!

Worth every penny - saved me $1,000!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a long time user of Rexing car cameras. Over the years, they have constantly improved their quality and usability. The R316 builds on that history of producing high-quality automobile cameras. This model is compact, yet has a large display. The cabin camera captures not all of your behavior - to prove you weren’t texting one of an accident happened, but also what’s happening behind your vehicle. The menu structure with the navigation buttons is easy to use. I especially like the Wi-Fi feature, which allows me to view recordings on my iPhone. The most important aspect of owning this camera is the ability to document the cause of an accident. When driving through a parking lot, another vehicle backed into me. We both had the same insurance, but they refused to give the insurance company a statement of what happened. The company was getting ready to charge my uninsured motorist policy with its large deductible. I sent them a video of the accident and they immediately changed their minds and charged the other driver’s policy. That saved me $1,000 deductible! I always have my camera running when I’m driving my car, and I always upgrade to new generations of Rexing cameras for their feature set and high-quality. I highly recommend this camera!
