Dear All,

Any kind soul able to review on below HD and 2CH dashcams?

1. BMW Advanced Car Eye
2. Thinkware F750
3. IROAD V7 or V9

What you like and dislike? Did you switch product from one to the other and which one you still prefer?

Hi Baby1M,

Thanks for the video. I have seen all these video online but wonder anyone has personal experience and comments on these cams. I am personally on Adanced Car Eye but the Thinkware and IROAD wifi and smaller in size when mounted is really tempting. Furthermore, the wifi allows viewing of clips on iPhone.

Re: Dashcam Review

Thinkware f750 I am using.

Video is crisp.
But the memory card slot is in such a weird position that it is not possible to take out the memory card unless you dismantle the whole set. But no such problem if your rear view mirror doesn't comes without the auto-dim function.
Till now I still can't figure out how to display the map like the BMW Car Eye.
The Near-collision and lane departure warnings are super irritating. I guarantee you will switch those warnings off.

Re: Dashcam Review

I noticed that for IROAD there is always "UNKNOWN" beside the speed.

For displaying map on the video, I thought you can only see it on the PC viewer?

I also find the near-collision and lane departure not suitable in Singapore road where it so congested and always need to change lane

Hi Lexus SC.

Did you encounter any error message about battery draining? I m considering this cam on my ride.
Mind to share where did you install yr set?

Thanks.

Anyone has review on the new Thinkware F770? It has super night vision and timelapse. Looks cool.

Any recommended dealer or workshop have stock on this and charge reasonable price?

For me always prefer Blackvue for its sleek design and function to download footage to mobile phone.
